Love this kettle 5 out of 5 stars.

Brews really quickly and has an auto-shutoff. No complaints and i have had it a year. Short power cord which may be an issue for some folk.

A champ. 5 out of 5 stars.

Purchased this kettle three weeks ago and so far it works superbly, boiling water in no time. So much faster than the stovetop!

Started to leak after 3 months 1 out of 5 stars.

Looks like I'm not the only one reporting on this problem. Must be a small percentage of the product but the trouble is that it seems to happen after the return policy expires, which also makes it hard to know whether your new kettle is good or has this potential issue.
Beware. A good kettle otherwise, unless you're unlucky, like me.

Very well designed 5 out of 5 stars.

We've been using this new electric teapot for about a week at least 2-3 times/day and it is the best! I've owned several other electric kettles and this one is surely the best designed.

The highlights are:

- teapot is very light (plastic body, metal only in base for electrical connections),
- the buttons are in the right place right at the top of the handle,
- the handle is at the perfect angle for pouring (I'm used to more traditional kettle handles that are curved, so was a bit skeptical figuring they were like that for a reason - wrong, this form factor is hands down much better)
- easy-view window for water level - love this as our prior kettle had a terrible design for this
- sturdy cabling with wrap-around storage underneath for extra length - this keeps things nice and neat
- water heats very fast and reliable
- looks good on the countertop

Can't point to any negatives - except very minor point that the top lid should open more fully. It opens perfectly far enough, but would be even better if it opened just a bit wider for cleaning and filling with water.

But overall this is a great product and is the best of several electric kettles I've owned.

Works Amazingly Well 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

This is one kitchen gadget that really works. Makes thick creamy froth in seconds. Batteries ( two "AA" ) last a long time. Just rinse it off to clean it. If you get one, get the "to go" model listed here. The plastic case is very handy. It fits perfectly and snaps closed tightly. Thrown in your gadget drawer, it won't get tangled up like everything else tends to do. This would make a perfect small gift for anyone with an espresso machine.

Not for milshakes, etc. 3 out of 5 stars.

I made the mistake in buying this to mix milk-protein drinks, it just doesn't have the power to do it. I'm going to buy a Cuisinart or Proctor Silex plug in model that have a lot more power and are about the same price.
This is probably great for frothing milk, but they shouldn't have advertised it for making milk shakes or anything that is thick, it just can't handle thicker drinks and really bogs down and even stops.

Great! 5 out of 5 stars.

I bought one of these last week and I love it so much I went out and bought 4 more for my adult children. Sometimes I find myself sitting and thinking who else I could give one to because it is so cool.

Editorial Review:

The Toddy Maker is a simple device that uses cold water and a carefully designed filter system to produce an exceptionally pure coffee concentrate from ground coffee. The advantages of coffee brewed with the Toddy Maker make it a popular choice among both individuals and the food service industry. Cold water brewing extracts the desirable flavor elements, but eliminates many of the undesirable oils and acids found in hot brewed coffee that are not soluble at low temperatures. Cold brewed coffee tastes smoother and is easier on the stomach. Toddy coffee has been recommended by doctors to their patients who are sensitive to the acid in hot brewed coffee. The original Toddy Maker consists of a plastic brewing container with a plug and filter at the bottom. One pound of regular grind coffee and nine cups of cold water are added and allowed to steep for eight to twelve hours. The plug is then removed and the resulting concentrate is allowed to drain through the filter into a glass carafe which is also provided. The grounds are then disposed of (they make good compost) and the filter rinsed thoroughly. The concentrate must be refrigerated. To make a cup of hot coffee simply mix one part concentrate with three parts water and heat in the microwave. To make iced coffee mix one part concentrate with three parts water and serve over ice. The concentrate is good for about three weeks in the refrigerator, and can be frozen for several months

I broke my other Bodum beaker and this was a perfect repalcement. Just make sure you check your size before purchasing.

Good product 4 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I was very upset when my last beaker broke after serving my family for many years, daily. This product arrived quikly and was exactly what i expected. sizes were a little confusing but considering i lived in Germany for a few years i got it figured out. The text thats printed all over the beaker is not quite what i expected though since the original had no markings on it, not quite as classy looking at something with words all over, but you can twist it in the metal holder to hide most of it.. Thanks

Bodum 34 ounce beaker is commonly called 32 ounce too.and some FAQ too 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Bodum manufactures four sizes of Chambord French Press sizes.

They are called 3 cup, 4 cup, 8 cup and 12 cup.
http://www.bodumusa.com

If Amazon were to have investigated their listing of this replacement beaker,they should have categorized it as that of 32 ounce for less confusion, or should have simply listed the beaker as 8 cup,etc.
Or,even 32/34 ounce may have been a better choice.

Here is the scoop,(in my opinion),for all the confusion of sizes for beakers listed on Amazon or elsewhere.

When you are shopping for replacement beakers you start to realize whom is providing the correct information.

It is not Amazon calling this 34 ounce to help you out,unless the replacement beaker is not made by Bodum and instead some other brand name?

Amazon sells you a 8 cup French Press,then lists the replacement beaker as 34 ounce,i believe that the beakers are either not made by Bodum or information maybe lost in metric sizes to us calculations.Just list the beaker as mentioned above.

Therefore,i shall list clarification for you all and one day will review my own comments incase i require another beaker,although I suggest you buy a replacement one anyways if you become accustomed to enjoying French press coffee.

A French Press is worth nothing if the carafe beaker breaks. Buy one replacement beaker even the first time you have bought a French Press, then years down the road you will have thanked me for that advice.
Have have had mine with no problems since 2006,but felt it is best to be prepared now.


Bodum makes the following sizes clarified as follows.

3 Cup model is 0.35 liters or 12 ounces size beakers
4 Cup model is 0.60 liters or 17 ounces size beakers
8 Cup model is 1.00 liter(one liter size) or 32 ounce beakers
12 cup model is 1.50 liter ( 1 1/2 liter size) or 48 ounce size beakers.

So, when you see 34 ounce beaker listed it is actually 32 ounces or one liter size replacement beaker. That is because a company like Amazon should list it as 32/34 ounce for better clarification just like Bodum website does.
My perception is this 8 cup model is Bodum part # 1508-10

Also, you may consider buying the double walled glass carafe listed on Bodum website as part # 10573-10 but not sure if is listed for sale on Amazon. Just copy-paste the model number 10573-10 in the search mode and find out. On Bodum site,#10573-10 sells for $39.95 for double walled glass carafe. Of course, Bodum has its own shipping fees so find it on Amazon instead to try to get free shipping offers...
Not really sure if double walled glass carafe is worth twice the price,but maybe if you are making your French Press coffee not following directions properly that double walled glass may be your solution to not break your carafes anyways.
Therefore, consider this glass beaker for the masses.

Editorial Review:

So you broke your Bodum carafe? Don't fret, simply replace it and get on with the business of making coffee.

great value 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I tried Crema e Aroma and compared it with the more expensive Lavazza Super Crema. I liked the Crema e Aroma better, because of its more pronounced and pleasant flavor. The Super Crema tasted generic to me. In addition to one's own subjective taste preferences, the final outcome depends on one's espresso machine, grinder, and coffee amount per shot. My machine is a DeLonghi Magnifica with a built-in grinder, set to max. coffee and almost minimum water per shot. I am sure that there a better coffees out there but Crema e Aroma is a compelling value.

overpriced 1 out of 5 stars.

Really horrible 1 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

This is really horrible coffee. It is especially bad in an espresso machine. The taste is completely different than the Lavazza beans that come in a blue bag. There is a reason this brown bag is cheaper.

Wow. I truly didn't expect this, it's great! 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

My experiences had been drip coffee - a lot of it, over the years. I recently bought an espresso machine, and started experimenting with different coffees.

Some stuff I didn't like all that much - Illy dark and medium roast was kind of flat for me, sort of bland. Peet's Italian stuff was chocolately, but muddy/muddled in flavors.

This, though, Crema e Aroma, absolutely lives up to it's name. Lots of flavor starting with the aroma when you open the bag and grind: mouth-filling, round, with that coffee taste I adore. It's got a fair amount of persistence, that taste, which may not be great for some folks, but I really like it.

I get nice crema from this, pressure PF or plain PF (it's a small retail DeLonghi BAR-32, but I have a non-pressure filter for it). The shot starts dark, blonding only a little, and the crema is a beautiful camel tan/brown that fills the room with the smell of great coffee.

It's got some caffeine, for sure, I get a pretty strong buzz after a double.

I love this coffee!

It Broke 1 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

This french press worked fine until it broke. A piece of plastic on the plunger broke in less than 1 month of use. Might have been bad luck but be aware. Plan to spend more money on the next one.

Delicious coffee, Great design 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

If you are trying to decide between the BonJour and the Bodum French press I have owned both and recommend getting the BonJour, it is a much better design. I have had my BonJour for over 3 years with no issues. The BonJour carafe is made out of unbreakable polycarbonate vs the Bodum which is glass. I broke two Bodum carafe within 6 months before deciding to get the BonJour. I have dropped the BonJour on the floor and it survived. The BonJour also has a fine screen on the pour spout, this is awesome at keeping grounds which escaped from the plunger out of your coffee mug. Last is the nice rubber bottom which keeps it from tipping. The Bodum had 4 metal feet which is less stable.

One last thing, I have seen reviews saying that you cannot separate the screen for cleaning. That is not true. Normally if you clean it within a few days of using all you have to do is rinse it off, maybe a little bit a soap. However once I went on vacation for 2 weeks and when I got home I realized I did not clean the BonJour. It looked like a science experiment, mold was all over the screen. I was able to unclip the plastic and separate the screen and place everything in the dishwasher. Everything came out clean and I was able to put it back together.

I have no complaints about the BonJour, I would recommend it to anyone who wants delicious coffee.

A good all-around thermos from Thermos. Keeps the liquid hot for several hours (I haven't tried the cold), has a good grip, and fits nicely in the car cup-holder. The only reason I don't rate it 5 stars is because you will get some leakage out of the top if you tilt it at a steep angle - but you should be fine unless you like to juggle your morning beverage.

We have been using the Thermos brand products for years. They are very consistant in quality and design. Regretably, I find myself purchasing several every couple years. If they could only provide a GPS system for the one's my wife misplaces, I would not have to keep replacing our stock!

I've had one of these for about 10 years now, it's been great, and continues to work well--keeping my coffee hotter longer than any other mugs I picked up along the way. I still use my original, and purchased this one so that I wouldn't have to use other types of travel mugs. It seems to be exactly the same as my old mug--which is good.

The only deal on this cartridge I've found is to wait until it's on the 'buy 3 get the 4th free' deal with Amazon. In all the years I've been using these, I've never had a calcium or scale build-up in my coffee maker, which is the point I guess.

The only filter 5 out of 5 stars.

This is the only filter that fits in my Jura Capresso Impressa E8. That makes it perfect.

This filter has worked well in our Jura. The coffee tastes great. We don't have to use the hard water tablets because we have always used the filter. They are a bit pricey, but worth it.

The Clearyl Water Care Cartridge is an important part of the cleaning process for your beloved Capresso machine. It removes chlorine, lead, aluminum and copper for a better tasting coffee. A special organic additive removes almost all carbon and practically eliminates decalcifying. The electronic Clearyl cartridge change indicator makes sure that you always have the best water possible.
