Excellent Coffee Press 4 out of 5 stars.
16 of 16 people found this review helpful.
Being the only coffee drinker in the house, it is at times cumbersome to fire up the old percolator. I have owned two "cheap" coffee presses and found them effective for single cup filter coffee. A recent move resulted in the breakage of my last press, so I treated myself to the more up market (read stainless and glass) Bodum press.
This press is well made, sturdy and dishwasher safe. The plunger is smooth to operate and does not allow any coffee grinds past the side. It works equally well with coarse and fine ground coffee.
Can it be improved? Yes. It is missing graduated markings on the outside to show the water level. The lack of these markings means it is challenging to judge the amount of water relative to the number of cups desired.
Besides this minor nit, it is an excellent purchase and I hope to use it for many years to come.
Editorial Review:
This 34-oz. version of the original Chambord easily serves four and has all the favorite features: a polished stainless lid and holder, wide black handle and knob that stay cool, and a durable glass carafe. To use, simply spoon-in the ground coffee of your choice, fill with boiling water to the desired level and plunge the press firmly against the grounds. Wait a few minutes then enjoy fresh coffee! The Bodum Chambord is the original French press, an award winner of the American Culinary Institute's Gold Medal for two years straight. Also included is a preset digital timer ($10 value) that fits right on the plunger rod so you know exactly how long to let your coffee brew.
