Utopia Kitchen 34 Ounce 1 Liter French Press Coffee Maker, Tea Maker, Travel Coffee Presses, Heat Resistant Thickened Borosilicate Coffee Pot for Camping Travel Gifts, Black Pack of 1

Good size, sturdy, easy to brew and clean. No noise ( hand press) and holds the coffee at a good temperature. Perfect for brewing coffee from grounds if all you have is a microwave or electric kettle. Compact and saves space over a coffee maker. Also fits in fridge for cold brew.

A French press is a simple device. This one does everything right and is priced to make it the best value IMO. I have put pounds of coffee through this and as a happily caffeinated person wanted to share the joy with the world. This has a good capacity, is dishwasher safe in my experience even if somewhere it says it's not. All metal is stainless so never rusts. It's a good unit and great price without unnecessary metal bands for the handle.

This is not my first french press. But it is my first from this brand. I am very happy with it. for one thing, unlike other presses I've had, it's dishwasher safe. The plastic feels a little cheap, but the glass and metal components are sturdy, and those are the important parts. I love the color and had a hard time picking which one to buy because of the variety of fun colors. As usual, it is easy to use, easy to clean, and easy to put back together.

This press was shipped to me in it's original box, with no additional packaging, and a label slapped onto it. It arrived extremely fast compared to other products I've ordered on Amazon. It took two days to get here and it wasn't shattered when I opened it up.That's pretty mind blowing in itself!Now for the fun stuff...I added pictures after washing it and after first use.Pro's:1. This is is a glass press - which means you can use it for hot or cold coffee, espresso, and loose leaf tea's.2. It is almost the exact same size as the plastic cold press from Bodum and it costs a couple dollars more. (The Bodum model is for cold press only!)3. It comes with a tiny scoop that you can keep to measure your favorite beverage.4. For anyone who doesn't know how to use a French Press the Instructions are printed on the side of the box. Unless you pitch the box--you wont ever lose the manual for it.Cons:1. The metal screens do not stay centered or fixed to ensure a safe press.Let me clarify since that may seem a bit confusing.Most "Presses" have it designed so when you put the lid on, the center (which is the screens to perform the actual press of grounds or leaves itself), is instantly level. Meaning it does not sit crooked at all, but it is even.THIS IS NOT the case for THIS product!It takes some TIME and PATIENCE to get it to go in evenly. It also extends the time it takes to press your drink from a 4 minute wait to about 6, which can leave it cooler or colder than you would like it to.This may or may not change depending on whether or not the item was or is defective.2. There are no instructions for the screens themselves or even if you can replace them in the future.3. There is no warranty information on the sellers page or anywhere on the box.Overall Review: I feel like I may have received a defective unit. I do not like the fact that the press is crooked. I now have to contact the seller to see if they can replace the top (The lid and press mechanism) or if i'll have to swap the whole unit out.I love the idea of this press and the flavor of the beverage is a 10. I just wish it worked without the hitches.Update: Customer service said to adjust the unit by gently turning the top knob on the press lid. It mostly fixed the situation, but its still a little crooked. It works well.Still can't find warranty information on it. All in all a great press

Never had a tea/coffee press before. I like it. Easy to use. Can use with boiling hot water or coffee. The taste comes through well for tea. Seems durable. Works great for tea, loose herbs, and fruits. And sleek look.

Perfect little French press! It made a fabulous cup of coffee. The price was right! I plan to take this camping and I’ll obviously be very careful to not break it, but it seems easy enough to pack away and travel with without taking up a lot of space. I would highly recommend!

Although I've had French Press coffee, I didn't like it. I hate sludge in the bottom of my cup. So I always made pour-over. But then I purchased brewable cacao which calls for a French Press. I decided to purchase a small, inexpensive one. This was cute and colorful, sounded good, so I bought it.I bought the one cup version. It's adorable! My daughter, who uses French Press regularly, squealed over it. Anyway, I began brewing the cacao in it and was very happy with the results. There is some very fine sediment in the cup, but it isn't bad. Then I began adding a bit of coffee during the final couple of minutes to give a mocha flavor. It surprised me that there wasn't much sediment even with the coffee. The flavor is excellent. It holds heat very well.The few cons with it are: The glass portion doesn't seem to remove from the plastic, so I can't get into the crevasses to clean the outside. I do personally find cleanup a bit difficult. Normally I use a teaspoon to get to the bottom to remove the grounds, or I rinse them out into the toilet because I don't have a garbage disposal. Recently I began scooping out what I can, then rinsing the rest out and putting them through a pour-over setup to be able to toss them into the garbage. That works well. Even though I have a small hand, I can't get into the one-cup press to clean it, so I have to use a long-handled glass brush.Finally, I broke the carafe, but that was almost certainly my own fault. I banged it against the garbage can rather than gently tapping it. Almost cried because I had no way to properly brew the cacao! Ordering another one today, this time in a larger size so I can reheat another cup later or have it cold in the 100+ degree heat.All in all, I'm not tempted to purchase a more expensive one because I see no need to do so. I'm really pleased with this and enjoy the ritual of making coffee, cacao, and tea in this press. Maybe I'll buy two and give one to my daughter!
