French Press Coffee Maker

My Bodum Chambord makes great coffee. It is easy to make and has met all my expectations. Just wish there was a way to keep it warm longer, but didn't expect it to when I purchased it. I am glad I got the 12 cup. Just enough for the two of us. I don't think I will go back to another kind of coffee maker again.

My 12 oz french press is the perfect way to make tasty single-serve coffee at my desk. I only wish the top where the coffee is poured through wasn't made of plastic. I worry about possible BPA.

Nice, solid french press coffee maker... though slightly smaller than you would expect. It will do the trick for me anyways, and it is very easy to clean, so overall a very good fit, and a nice product

Excellent French Press, makes good coffee out of mediocre beans, I wonder what would happen if I bought really good coffee :).  Anyway if you want a 1.5 liter french press, you will be happy with this unit.

Very nice French Press.  If you follow the directions, it will make a nice cup of coffee while keeping the grounds securely in the bottom of the cup.  Really like that it can be taken on the go!

This made fabulous coffee. Maybe even better than my much-loved french press! (I bought it to have an 'extra' for when I had company and couldn't press coffee fast enough?! Or for if I broke my glass pot again.) My first attempt was weak coffee; I poured the water in too fast and it mostly exited over the outside. Directions must be followed, just be a little patient and pour the water in slowly, wait, pour, be slow about it and it is great! Even so, it did not take long to make a cup of enjoyable coffee. I am glad I bought this simple, efficient little coffee maker.

This works really well and has a nice price. But I have to admit I abandoned pour-over style coffee in favor of a French Press. It is just easier to pour water in the press and walk away than to oh so slowly pour water over this filter, walk away, and come back and do it again. However, this made very nice coffee, has a great simple design, uses no paper filter, and I had no problem with clogging. I put mine in the dishwasher to clean. Definitely recommended for an inexpensive pour-over. Glad I didn't spend a fortune trying it.

I've had this coffee maker for a few days and it works as advertised.

Pros:
-Brews HOT coffee in about 4 minutes and keeps it warm for 2 hours.
-Progammable setting perfect for when you wake up.
-No spilling on my unit. I splurged and bought a re-usable filter. A few coffee grounds end up in the coffee holder because I grind my coffee very fine. The screen on the re-usable filter allows small particles through BUT the screen in the coffee holder keeps them out of my cup.
-Takes 2 minutes or less to clean.
-Price!

Cons:
-After using (and shattering) a french press, coffee in this maker doesn't taste as good. The french press coffee is strong and flavorful while this machine's coffee has a little less flavor. Of course, I'm no aficionado so it doesn't bother me much. I'm not savoring every sip.
-Hard to make just 1-2 cups. French press is much better for one-cuppers.

I really like my French Press! I think Coffee really tastes much better with this method fresh brewing. I use a manual coffee grinder, set to a medium ground, and brew as soon as I have finished grinding.
The French Press doesn't have many parts so care and use is quite easy. Clean-up is a breeze, rinse, just a touch of soap and water, rinse again and you're set for the next session.
The glass carafe is perfect and doesn't add a metallic flavour to the coffee.
It's a beautiful design -- a nice addition to a coffee table or counter.  Stylish, but still has a French Country feel to it.  Even happy Husband likes it!

I wanted a coffee maker for my desk at work and this works perfectly. It is easy to use. You simply put the coffee in the french press, add hot water, and let it sit for 4 to 5 minutes. You then slowly press the lid and press down and pour your coffee into your cup. The plunger is very easy to press and doesn't feel too tight or too loose. The coffee from the french press is much more flavorful than from a drip coffee machine.

It also works well with loose leaf tea. I've used several different tea infusers that you simply place in your cup but have found most still let the smallest pieces of tea leaves into my cup. This french press brews a great cup of tea while keeping the leaves in the press and not in your cup.

It's very easy to clean as well. Simply empty out the grounds and clean with a little soap and water. You can also place it in the dishwasher but it's just easy to quickly wash and rinse for me.

If I could change one thing on this french press though, it'd be to use glass instead of plastic. Otherwise it's great.

I received a discount on this item. The discount did not, in any way, shape, or form influence my review. My opinions are my own.

I agreed to accept receipt of this coffee press for free to test and evaluate. I am a coffee drinker and have experience with the use of a french press.

This french press is comparable to others that I have used. It works correctly, the plunger works smoothly and grounds are kept out of the rest of the coffee.

The pot was easy to clean up by hand. I do not put my glass french presses in the dishwasher, they are broken too easily by carelessness when removing them. It is very easy to break a glass carafe in a dishwasher. The glass on this is thick enough to hold up, but it is still glass, picking glass out of the dishwasher is time consuming.

My one concern is the handle as it is thin. I am not sure how long it will take before it is banged and broken off, but for now, it is holding. My other pots have metal or plastic handles. This has a molded glass handle. The handle does not get hot when using.

The sides of the pot have markings that can help a beginner learn how much water to add to the pot. That is a nice touch. Note that 20 ounces is around 2 1/3 cups of liquid, or divided, two 10 ounce cups. This might not be enough coffee if you are brewing for two.

The pour spout is mostly drip less if the coffee is poured carefully it does not go over the sides of the spout. Heavy handed pouring makes a mess.

The silicone ring being removable is a moot point for me. I am unsure why you would want to remove it, it keeps the glass away from cold surfaces that could crack the glass. (Hot glass coming in contact with cold or room temp surfaces can shatter. The last thing most people want is to be splashed with hot coffee.)

I've been using this everyday since I received it.  The package arrived promptly. I love the look of this French press.  It's easy to use and the coffee tastes great.

I like the Kuissential French Press.  It functions as promised.  The quality appears to be good.  It is easy to use and the mesh filter keeps grounds from my cup.

We recently discovered the french press method for making coffee. This method is quick and simple and produces a rich cup of coffee.  The presses I could find were small and I found myself making many batches when we had guests.
This large french press will make enough coffee to serve 5-6 people with one batch.  It also keeps the coffee warm for a long period of time.  I also found that this press produces a cleaner coffee with fewer grounds getting past the filter.  Although a bit pricey, I would recommend this product.
