Bodum BRAZIL Coffee Maker, French Press Coffee Maker, Black, 34 Ounce (8 Cup)
The Brazil French Press coffeemaker, designed in the early 80’s, was our first coffeemaker and quickly became a symbol of what Bodum stands for. Attractive and functional design at an affordable price. The Brazil has a durable, heat-resistant borosilicate glass beaker and a plastic handle and base, which make the Brazil easy to use and easy to clean. The 3-part stainless steel plunger has a fine mesh filter, which allows for a premium extraction of your coffee’s aromatic oils and subtle flavors. A mesh filter allows this flavor to be delivered direct to your cup and not absorbed by a paper filter. Plus, no paper filter means no waste. The patented safety lid prevents the splashing of liquids while pressing. All parts are dishwasher-safe.

This french press is all you need for the right price.Before you go out and spend a couple hundred bucks on a new Keurig, do yourself a favor and try this sub $20 paired with a quality ceramic burr grinder…
better in every way than the Ikea french press that also costs $10 Got this to replace my worn out Ikea french press (also 1 liter). The Ikea model worked well for a couple of years, but eventually the bottom filter bent out of shape and no longer filtered very well. This Bodum version was the same price (also $10) and looks and works similar to the Ikea version, but Bodum is superior in a few ways. Most importantly, the bottom filter in the Bodum version fits more snugly so less grit gets through. Bodum also has a secondary filter in the spout which catches…
After using it for a bit, the way that the handle attaches and the plastic base are both a bit annoying. The handle at the top juts out over the lip of the glass, which means you have to angle the filter as you put it back in. A minor annoyance, but there just the same. The plastic base is a cover over the underlying glass, and water/particles can get stuck in there. I feel like it would have been a better product without either of these unnecessary design choices, but in the end it does…
