 Perfect and Lovely September 23, 2008
I bought this press more than a year ago (June of 2007) and I'm here to report nothing has happened to it through almost daily use. I feel that I have gotten my money's worth. Love the small size and this would be perfect to take camping.
Excellant Coffee Maker August 25, 2008
When my daughter told me she was in the market for a Fench Press coffee maker, my reaction was HUH? I had never heard on it. She said A French Press was the only was to make coffee. I took her word for it and ordered two Bodum 12 ounce presses, one for her and one for me.
When the shipment came we quickly open the package and made coffee! What a treat. THe Bodum is exactly as advertised. In less than ten minutes (heating water and brewing) it makes a strong flaverful cup of coffee. IT is simple to use and very easy to clean.
The 12 ounce maker is the perfict size of one mug of coffee.
Highly recommended!
 French Press Coffee maker August 23, 2008
This is a great little coffee press, and I do mean little. The only reason that I don't give it 5 stars is because it only makes one "cup" of coffee. By the time you take the grounds into consideration there is only about 8-10 ounces of coffee. This is slightly less than a typical mug. I like it when I only need to make a cup for me, but when I have others, it is just not a solution. Once you have invested the time into grinding the beans. heating the water, waiting for the 3-4 minute brew time, and heating the cream, you may want more coffee. I intend to keep this one, since I often just want one cup of coffee, and buy another one for 4 persons. If you don't already have one, get a burr grinder; fantastic coffee with this and the French press.

Alas, like so many other products, this one has become cheap and shoddy. I bought my first Bodum french press almost 20 years ago. It lasted that long with regular use, made good coffee, and became much loved in my house. A few weeks ago I bought a replacement -- same company, same size, same model -- and much to my disappointment, this thing is a piece of junk. The metal parts are flimsy and about half the time the grinds slip past the filter, as well as the ridiculous plastic filter at the top. I'm throwing it away. It is that useless.
