Love this. Coffee tastes fresh & delicious. Easy to clean. Fits in cabinet perfectly

This works so well! We were getting frustrated with how quickly our pour over coffee was cooling in the traditional glass carafe. This keeps our coffee hot until it's all finished. We use the Able Brewing Black Heat Lid to keep the heat in even longer when we are enjoying it at home and want to keep the glass carafe top on. Otherwise the cap this comes with seals it and keeps in the heat.

Update: I didn't realize it at first but the beaker had a hairline crack that expanded. Luckily I noticed in time and I was able to get a replacement from coffeemakers.us.com. I do wish that the glass was a bit thicker for this product. I still wanted a different handle material, so I wound up ordering a "Bodum Chambord Coffee Maker 3 Cup 0.35 Liter 12 Ounce Shiny" french press used from coffeemakers.us.com Warehouse for $15 in "like new condition." It was a bit of a tight fit but the glass beaker did fit into the Bodum stainless steel stand. I am currently using this brand's glass beaker and bamboo lid with the Bodum stainless steel holder that has a plastic handle. I really do like this french press overall and I would give it 5 stars if the handle was a more durable material such as stainless steel, plastic, or silicone. Original Review: I ordered this 12 oz French press and Ascot glass electric kettle based on Tamara Rubin’s advice for nontoxic and lead free kitchen items. It is beautiful but I wish the handle was either stainless steel or even plastic so that it could go through the dishwasher and there would be less worry of deterioration. I have hand washed it a few times and you can the see the bamboo is already drying out a bit on the handle. I am not having this problem with the bamboo top. I know that I could oil it but ideally I would like something that I could just rinse and pop into the dishwasher. I went so far as to order the same brand’s 12 oz version with a black plastic handle and lid to use for parts. I was hoping to swap out just the handle portion so that I would have the black handle with the original glass beaker without writing with the bamboo lid (I do not want the plastic lid touching the hot coffee). However, the glass beaker for the 12 oz glass/plastic combo is narrower. The bamboo lid is unable to press down as shown in the picture. It’s definitely a bummer. I am still trying to figure out what I want to do. I could possibly remove the beaker from the bamboo handle before washing it but I like to wash it right away and it’s very hot. I am debating if I should just switch over to another brand that is all glass and stainless steel. I saw a 34 oz one at IKEA that was reasonably priced.

It’s pretty in red; however, lid arrived cracked. Machine works fine for now (only did one test run, just received it). Afraid to return it for fear of getting a non working or another damaged product. I’ll just use the lid from previous Keurig which is the exact same but black. My perfectionist personality for things I purchase is freaking out tho 😂. Gives my kitchen a nice pop.

I gave this product 4 stars because of its compact size, attractive white color, and the fact that it dispenses quickly, without leaking. I would have given 5 stars if the water reservoir was able to hold a few more ounces. It must be refilled before dispensing 4 cups as the water level is too low for a 4th large cup.

I got this along with a collapsible water kettle to put in my travel bag, rather than deal with scrounging for coffee during work trips. Flavor is good once I got the water/coffee ratio I wanted. Likes: easy to clean, easy to transport Dislikes: wish it was much bigger - I could drink 3-4 of these.

My Mom got us this for Christmas to replace our old one that quit... We had the other one for about 8 years of daily use.... Hope this new one lasts as long! Coffee in 3 mins!!

This is a really cool coffee machine. Very convenient to be able to make a carafe of coffee or make espresso. It can let you make the coffee at different strengths which is a nice feature and also the espresso at different strengths. The first time I used it I used Alex organic coffee and the taste was amazing. It was like the perfect temperature. It doesn't burn the beans. For espresso it does lungo and even over ice option! The frother works really well and I've had success using almond milk. Nice thick froth. The ability during the regular coffee mode to use the open and close feature to stop the flow of coffee is really helpful. Either you're seeing your cup overflowing because maybe you put too many ounces or you just want to stop it for any reason and all you have to do is push that lever. How convenient is that? It's a wonderful machine and works very well. It seems easy to clean too and comes with excellent and clear instructions. I absolutely love this machine and it's also eye appealing. Other features like a basket to collect the pods and a cup tray that can move around for the espresso different size cups or on the carafe side a little pull down tray for the cups is very neat. You will love this machine. I decided to get the bundle with the Alchemy pods that allow you to use your own coffee, and also the Rosso Caffe box reserve edition is excellent! Try it! It's delicious if you like espresso! Highly recommend.

I am so happy with this Kenmore coffee pot. It comes with a charcoal filter. It’s very easy to use and makes some good coffee.I have red accents in my kitchen so this fits in nicely. I highly recommend this coffee pot.

I love my French press! And this Grosche has some excellent features. One thing I hated about some of the French press designs is the housing holding the glass carafe was nearly impossible (and one Bodum design, impossible) to clean. So water would be trapped and dry leaving coffee residues, water spots and calcium deposits. And of course, visible through the carafe, it looked gross. Now, this Grosche Zurich design has completely solved that issue. The carafe has a metal band and plastic handle much like a typical electric coffeemaker carafe. And this has a silicone base that fits tightly and is removable! Excellent! Another feature that could be considered a pro or a con, the strainer section on the lid srains extremely well- so well it tends to keep the cremá back instead of in my cup, but throuroughly, strains any stray coffee ground. And the last feature I'll note, it's all stainless steel components. Every piece that is plunged into your delightful bit of coffee is stainless, even the tiny, little fastener holding the filter parts. For me, that means the parts are going to last and I can keep it perfectly clean. About the functionality, it's a quality French press and makes perfect coffee. This is a great French press and I definitely recommend it to anyone who likes good coffee!

I got this French press as a gift for Christmas. It's a pretty nice press. But the outer coating is terrible. After a month of using it, it started chipping. This is with just normal use, cleaning and drying on a dish rack. 3 months in and the entire press has scratches all over it, the bottom is all scratched up. It's very unsightly. I would not recommend getting the textured colors. The press itself is nice and works very well. I would recommend getting the stainless steel or copper color.

This is a great product- exactly what I expected and worth the price!! Love it so much!! Might buy my husband one also...

We have a small Kitchenette with cabinets above, so it was IMPERATIVE that we get a coffee pot where the water well can pull out and be filled elsewhere. This coffee maker is easy to fill and makes great coffee. Love the filter within a filter, so we don't use paper filters at all!

This coffee maker is the absolute worst! Here it is blowing coffee 4 ft away, up a wall and all over the floor. Happens 1 time maybe it’s me, happens more than twice a week it’s the devil himself coming through this machine at 350 in the morning. 0 stars would not recommend to even the worst human #FPR. This coffee pot is the perfect gift for your least favorite person or a family member you have a personal vendetta for.
