I've owned a few coffee presses over the years, and this is now my favorite. The size is perfect for two big mugs of coffee, with enough extra that you don't need to pour the last drops and risk getting grounds in your mug. The shape and styling is vintage and modern at the same time. It feels sturdy and well made, and the handle is comfortable and does not get hot to touch. The coffee stays hot long enough. And of course unbreakable stainless steel tops glass any day. Read more
My decades old french press broke. It was glass with a plastic handle. Worked fine for years and years. When I started looking for a new one I was amazed at all the different styles, shapes and material choices. I have an Aeropress with a stainless pot and have to be careful not to touch the metal even with the neoprene cozy on it. I had to be careful with the old french press for the same reason. Hot water in glass is hot! I found insulated ones that were not my style. Everything with straight handles and cylindrical pots. I like classic curves and when I saw this press I put it on my list. I couldn't find anything better on other shopping sites so I bought it. It is so well designed and a beautiful coffee pot. I have it on my desk right now and have been smiling while I drink hot coffee. It is nice enough to put on the table for guests. Being stainless steel is a bonus because I am sure it will last and not break while washing it like the old french press. The lid turns so you can pour or turn to keep the coffee warm in the press. It also made wonderful smooth coffee that I am enjoying while writing this. Pouring from it is so nice. I love the feel of the curved handle and it is so easy to pour compared to my old one. I am using a new smart automatic kettle also from Amazon and together they look great and work wonderfully. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07TYGG2S3?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 Read more
Great quality, easy to clean. I have been using every day. Not only for coffee but also for tea. Keeps liquid warm and I don’t have to worry about it breaking Read more
This beautiful little pot makes the best coffee, better than I've been able to brew at home with a standard coffee maker. It is lovely in my kitchen. It is the perfect size for me, makes 2 full 10 oz cups of coffee and takes up very little space on my kitchen counter. It's very easy to use and care for. I'm very happy with it! Read more
This is an elegant, unbreakable and correctly designed coffee press. The plunger can be easily disassembled to replace its screen (extras are provided) and tightened if it ever becomes loose. This was not possible on my former Pirex glass press. Read more
I gave this 4 stars BECAUSE the box says 6 cups, the Amazon page says 32oz (which in my calculation, as well as most of those who can do math is 4 cups - but that was plenty for me so I went for it) but when I made my coffee the first time, I put 4 scoops of coffee in for 4 cups then added my hot water (which I microwaved in a 4 cup Pyrex - this is just for the trial run mind you) and started pouring … only 3 cups of water fit! Soooo - love the look, made great coffee (which is the main point), kept it hot (and I took 3 hours to drink it) and cleaned easily, but if you expect 6 “cups” and are ok with a 4oz “cup” OR if you are ok with 2 great 12oz mugs of coffee then you are all set and this is the one for you. BUT If you want actual 32oz +, buy the larger FP. But ultimately this is a great little press and works for what I needed and looks pretty while doing so… so it’s a keeper for me! Read more
I appreciated the letter I received from the company before the product arrived. Tips on how to use the french press. I have used a few before, and I have made the right choice to buy. I like fresh gratted coffee, and steeping with the VECO French press brings out the natural flavors that I have missed. The quality is exceptional. No flimsy handles that will break easily. Made with high grade stainless steel. Brewing for this size is 3 to 4 cups, depending on the size of coffee cup you are using. This company have larger sizes. Defenetly a good buy. Easy to use and the taste is great. Read more
I bought this to reduce the amount of plastic in my food. This pot is all metal, beautifully designed and built. I love my coffee and prefer not to mess with it. However, this French press is a game changer! I didn’t expect my coffee to taste ssssoooo much better than coffee made in my my drip coffee maker. I’ll tell you, I am extremely impressed that this little coffee pot has elevated my morning coffee to a new level! My coffee tastes better, no more plastics, easy to clean and keeps the coffee hot! Can’t go wrong with this purchase!!! Read more
