Pressing makes better coffee June 16, 2008
I had been reading about coffee presses on the web, and I thought that I'd give one a try. It was not only super easy to use, it makes the BEST coffee. The only thing that I found miss leading is that it says that it's an 8 cup capacity. I can barely add 4 cups of hot water and we usually get 3-4 "cups" out of a pot. But, I love the product and it's great coffee. Thank you!

Great deal, fantastic coffee! June 14, 2008
I decided to buy a French press on the recommendation of a friend. I did a bit of research, and came up with the Bodum Chambord as the "best" as far as reviews went. I ordered the four cup model, and I have NOT been disappointed.

I've never used a French press before, but the instructions were clear and the coffee was unlike anything I'd ever tasted. I've worked as a barista in the past, so I have some experience with making coffee. This is a heartier, richer, much stronger coffee than I'm used to, but it's not bitter.

Word of advice... the fresher your beans are, the better the coffee. I bought some beans at our local market to test it out, and you could tell that they weren't fresh. Fresh beans will create a rich brown foam on top of the coffee when you stir the grounds in. Stale beans will not. After buying fresher beans, I was VERY happy with the taste. I do need to get a grinder, however. If you grind your beans at the store, just buy a little bit at a time. They go stale quite quickly after you grind them.

Final words... if you need a good coffee press, you can't go wrong with this one. The workmanship is outstanding, everything fits together beautifully, and the "press" action is like silk. I love it.

Broken Dreams... June 10, 2008

Well my significant other constantly reminds me of how I made her leave her french press in London when we moved to California. So as part of her Mother's Day gift I bought this one based on the reviews. It looked much nicer than the one she left behind as well.

Well on Mother's Day she opens it up, and I had bought some nice turkish coffee to go with, and lo and behold, the glass beaker was shattered into a million pieces. Shocking to say the least, especially since it's made of pyrex or similar shock/heat resistant glass. So I had to return it to Amazon, and not wanting to ruin the gesture, I went to Cost Plus and bought the exact same press (it was $4 more, plus tax, so say $7 more).

The replacement one works very well and she loves it, so I give it a four star rating despite not actually getting it from Amazon. I did get my refund from Amazon within a week or returning the broken item.

nice and easy June 9, 2008
It took me a few times using this to warm up to making coffee this way as being better than using a Melita type filter. It isn't better but it is easier. There's no magic about it but the coffee is good and the pot is quite attractive on the table. The measuring of the water and coffee and the amount of grinding to the coffee are important to the results. I am using it now and enjoying it.

Best coffee maker June 6, 2008
My husband loves making coffee in this. Best way to make coffee ever if you like goooood coffee! Won't/can't go back to regular coffee makers after using this. It's easy to use and even easier to clean. The only down side is that if you drop it in the sink the glass probably won't survive. It's ok, you just order the replacement beaker.
