5 out of 5 stars Makes a great cup of coffee!   May 14, 2008
I really like a freshly ground, strong cup of coffee, and this French Press unit does it perfectly!


4 out of 5 stars Definitely different...   May 4, 2008
It would be rather redundant, but for first time buyers, I'll throw out what I think of this particular press and coffee made by this press.

It's definitely a different way to make coffee. Instead of a drip machine where water is filtered through coffee grounds, a coffee press mixes water with the grinds, then filters the mixture.

Does it live up to the hype?

I can't say for sure why this press is "only for coffee lovers." I love my coffee, but there are some drawbacks to using this coffee press... which might be applicable to any other presses. The most annoying by far is that it doesn't filter everything when you press the coffee-water mixture. It could be the fault that I'm using a Mr. Coffee grinder, or it could just be that the strainer isn't perfect. Regardless, I never finish what's at the bottom of my cup anymore, as it always remains a (fine) grainy sludge.

If you can look pass that, this makes for a very nice coffee press. It's well-made, simple, and very easy to use. It's easy to wash too (by hand)... just dump the grinds and wash the strainer and container with soap and water. The coffee it makes is by far, for lack of better words, richer than what a drip machine can provide. It's great for singles who like to have a thermos of rich coffee on-the-go. Once you do some experimentation to taste and figure out your own routine, making coffee in this way can be rewarding and even faster, if not on par, than a drip machine.

Note: Keep in mind that a cup of coffee is literally a measured cup... not equal to the gigantic mugs that we all know and love to use.

2 out of 5 stars Decent product with one flaw   April 30, 2008
 0 out of 2 found this review helpful

I am a person asks for a well designed product, and this isn't because the press does not go all the way to the bottom (stops about an inch short), so you cannot actually "press" the coffee - a ridiculous oversight which is particularly annoying when you only want to brew one cup. I would have given this 5 stars, but it gets 2 because of this oversight.


4 out of 5 stars Great press!   April 27, 2008
Great coffee press! I bought it for my husband, and he absolutely loves it. Once you have tasted coffee that has been pressed, you never want to go back to a filtered coffee maker.
