Product Description
The new PRESSO Thermal French Press Coffee Maker will leave a permanent impression on the minds of coffee lovers everywhere. Its simple and clean conic design positions it as a timeless classic. The PRESSO's thermal qualities are created by its double wall of durable stainless steel, keeping coffee hot longer. 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 knob on top of the lid and ergonomic handle are covered with non-slip rubber, both remaining cool to the touch. Featuring a safety lid, the Presso French Press prevents liquids from splashing from pot. Like all Bodum French press coffeemakers, the PRESSO delivers a balanced and robust flavor profile to your cup. The PRESSO is available as an 8-cup coffee maker (1l/34oz). All parts are dishwasher safe.

Inaccurate description, somewhat disappointing
By apophasis
I seem to be trying every coffee press on Amazon, with dismal results. After breaking _another_ glass Bodum french press, we decided to go to stainless steel. The problem is that all the stainless press pots so far have high prices, combined with quality issues, as detailed in my other reviews. Now for this one:Okay, first, it does not come with a "3-part stainless screen" as described. Actually, it comes with a one-piece screen assembly with a silicone edge gasket and stainless screen material molded into a plastic frame. If you have an old 3-part stainless screen assembly lying around (from a broken glass Bodum, perhaps...) you can screw that on, as the threads are the same size, or just use the whole assembly, lid and all.Personally, I don't at all appreciate plastic in my food, much less in my scalding hot coffee. There is no safe amount of plasticizer for the human body to contain, and all plastics release chemicals, most especially when heated and in contact with hot liquids. BPA is just the tip of the iceberg... YMMV, FYI, IMO, etc.Anyway, I don't appreciate the inaccurate description, let alone the cheap, plastic construction. So this one is going back.The body of the thing is solid, for sure, and looks to be indestructible, other than the handle, which wiggles a bit... Probably sturdy enough for careful use, but not super solid. The picture makes it look nice and smooth, but my example has a bunch of ripples at the angle between the upright section and the angled bottom. Compared to the picture online, mine looks like the "before" picture with abdominal flab.The lid assembly is pretty bad; there's a cheaply-stamped little triangle in the lid, which mars the smooth look, and is presumably intended to indicate the direction of the plastic grill underneath that permits pouring. But that plastic bit underneath is not connected to the metal top, so they can and do rotate independently, making the stamped triangle useless. The two bits are attached by a plastic clip that also serves as the bushing for the shaft, so you could maybe disassemble it and glue the parts together. The rubbery plastic top button screws directly onto a metal shaft, and looks sure to strip out and loosen.I'd keep it if it weren't for the plastic screen and chintzy lid, but the cellulite-like rippling on the main body isn't very attractive, either. Ah, market forces and their inexorable pressure for lower quality! My search for a solid, 100% metal, well-made large coffee press continues.

Bodum Presso
By T. gibson
This is my 2nd Bodum French Press and it's a good 1. My other is the standard glass version that is a classic & works well. This unit is smaller but still a decent size for 1-2 or even 3 good sized servings. I wanted this pot for two reasons; the 1st being the double wall construction to retain heat. My glass Bodum makes great coffee, but my only gripe with it is in the cooler months, I always had to reheat the coffee. This unit definitely retains the heat at least twice as long and probably longer - especially if it's pre-heated. The 2nd reason I wanted it is for longevity. Although I never had a problem with my glass Bodum, it's 3 years old & from what I've read of others....it's inevitable mine is due to shatter. The double walled stainless pot eliminates that fear, it's solid. But, the rest of this pot did let me down a bit as far as it's perceived durability, especially the screen/strainer(the reason for 4 stars). I was expecting the strainer to be of the same amazing quality as the glass version, but it is cheaper & I fear it'll only last a year. The top of the presso is also not as solid as the pot itself, but it should be ok unless you beat on it. It makes great coffee & stays warm, but expect to have to change the strainer within a year if it's used often.

Hot Coffee, Great Taste
By Mark Lowe
Bodum makes a great French Press.1. The coffee stays hot long enough for me to drink it all. Yes, one person can drink 34 ounces of coffee in 2 hours. 2. The filter screen works well with the rubber or silicone gasket around the edge. 3. You can actually pour from the press into a cup without spilling coffee. The Bunn was ridiculous when it came to pouring. 4. Did I mention Hot? The coffee is much hotter than any drip pot to begin with. It can stay hot 3 hours in an insulated mug. 5. The stainless steel will not be easy to damage.Anything I don't like? The top has a lot of plastic in it, so you want to be careful how you store it, I usually keep it in the press after rinsing. The filter screen is plastic too.I've owned this item 7 weeks and use it daily. I give it 5 stars because it meets or exceeds my expectations.
