Product Description
The new Columbia line combines stunning elegance of form with the best materials for perfect function. The double-walled stainless steel thermal press keeps your coffee or tea hot for more wake-up calls than you'll ever need.

Amazon.com Review
Ideal for home or office, this French press coffeemaker doubles as an insulated thermos so coffee stays hot and fresh for up to two hours. The pot holds 34 ounces (1 liter), nearly seven 5-ounce cups, and can be used for brewing tea as well as coffee. It's made of stainless steel polished to a mirror-finish, has a large, comfortable handle, and is dishwasher-safe. The lid seals in heat remarkably well and turns to prevent heat from escaping through the spout between pours. The pot stands 8-1/2 inches high, including the plunger top. --Fred Brack

5 out of 5 stars What's not to like?   October 8, 2008
This bulbous-little-bird shaped French press
makes great, mucky, dark coffee - keeps it fairly
hot and is darn-close to unbreakable.

I have broken at least one-half dozen French presses
prior to owning this one. I think I would have
to run over this with a car to break it.

A wise investment for the long-term enjoyment of
French press coffee or loose tea, like Yerba Mate.


5 out of 5 stars Absolutely Beautiful and Functional   September 18, 2008
I absolutely love this press pot. In addition to keeping my coffee piping hot, it looks gorgeous on my counter.


3 out of 5 stars French Press Coffee Maker   September 7, 2008
The only reason I wouldn't give this a 5 star is that some of the internal plunger/filter apparatus was made of plastic. Our reason for purchasing this item was to get away from plastic parts in our coffee maker. Our glass French press had all stainless steel parts (also from Bodum), fortunately these parts were interchangeable so we merely retired the plastic parts, along with the old glass pot, and now our coffee is plastic free and the Stainless-Steel Thermal Press works GREAT!


5 out of 5 stars We've saved $$$ in the first year alone   August 2, 2008
I bought this back in May 2007. I prefer to wait and post my reviews on kitchen tools and appliances later, so that I can report on the durability.

The Bodum 8-Cup provides enough coffee for my wife and I to start our morning. We use extra large coffee mugs(check out my review of the fantastic Pfaltzgraff Mystic Coffee Mugs), so we get two full mugs with each pot.

Other reviews cite problems with the filter but that's not been my experience. Like other buyers, I was taken aback by the initial cost of a stainless-steel press pot but I didn't want to go through the experience of another glass pot. Every glass pot I've owned before has broken and the last one nearly cut the back of my wife's fingers as she was cleaning it.

We stopped buying coffee at stands when we bought this press pot. At $2-$4 a cup, we've saved hundreds of dollars in the first year alone.

I then bought the Thermos Nissan 34-Ounce Stainless-Steel Vacuum Insulated Briefcase Bottle (another great product -- see my review) and started taking a second pot of coffee to work.

The Bodum stainless-steel press pot is durable, produces great-tasting coffee and helps us save money.


5 out of 5 stars Even Better!!!   June 23, 2008
I've been using the traditional Bodum French press for a while.

Although....I must say that without the instant hot water maker, I'd be using a coffee pot though... Nuking the water for a French Press takes too long, and basically makes me want my coffee maker back. But I digress.

This is without a doubt, the KING of the French press. It's shiny and pretty to have in the kitchen. I've gotten several compliments on it. It's also very easy to clean since there are now only two parts to this. The plunger and the pot. And I'm a guy. I like things that clean easily. Less is definitely more to me. The traditional French Press has fragile glass. I'd gone through 3 of the glass inserts before buying this one. They don't tell you that if you don't take the glass inserts out over time, that the housing will eventually rust and make rust spots on the glass carafe. But this one, piece of cake. I'm sorry I bought the glass carafe first. This one is the king! Coffee is excellent. Stays hot enough to have several cups hot. Winner!
