Primula Café Color 6-Cup Coffee Press

As I wrote in another review, my old Bodum french press made me irate. Their stupid indestructible carafe cracks when you use hot water in it, and they don't recommend using it without an entirely new plunger made especially for it.

Instead, I bought this beauty. It's light weight, colorful, makes wonderful coffee, and has a carafe that doesn't easily fall out and break. I like that the carafe stays inside the plastic base since it helps provide cushioning when washing it.

Was fairly pleased with this press. the coffee was a little murky, but that doesn't bother me too much, could just be a few fine grounds sneaked through the filter which doesn't fit as tight as it should. Had it about a week when i was sliding the glass part out of the plastic for washing separately, (which has worked fine before) when the bottom buckled and my thumb went through...

Needed a replacement French Press when the glass in my last one fell and broke. Picked this one for the cheap price, even though I rarely buy anything without a ton of good reviews behind them.

Luckily, it turned out to be a good purchase. The pieces are all fully and easily removable and washable. The canister is make of glass, the press is metal and the frame is some sort of plastic. This worried me, since I use boiling or near boiling water to make my coffee.

However, I poured the water in with no problems with the plastic whatsoever, even though the glass being held inside the plastic frame got quite hot.

The press itself worked well. It plunges with ease and keeps out the coffee grinds. The canister is very large and holds 6 "cups" (the French version of about 4-6 ounces, not our American 12oz version). Its easily enough for me to not have to make a repeat portion if I wanted some extra.

I purchased this press nearly a year ago at a price significantly less than a Bodum of the same size. I love it and I'm never, ever going back to a coffee maker.

I bought this French press, when my Keurig was getting old and I was looking for a better cup of coffee without wasting a whole pot. This was small enough for 2 people and if I was alone I could just make half a pot! The selling point was the $13 price tag, which I would normally be concerned about, but it was on sail! I got the package last month and I examined for cracks. I saw on odd mark on the bottom of the beaker, but it looked like a trail of glue, like they glued the beaker to the handle. I finished up the last of my k-cups and then made a fresh pot of French press this morning. That odd mark on the bottom of the beaker, was actually a large crack. I made enough coffee to get to large mugs, but I on'y got one. Most of it leaked out before the coffee finished brewing. Perhaps I should have spent the extra money.
