Condition: The Brazil French Press coffee maker, designed in the early 80's, was Bodum's first coffee maker and quickly became a symbol of what Bodum stands for. Attractive and functional design at an affordable price! The Brazil has an unbreakable polycarbonate beaker and a polypropylene handle and base, which make the Brazil easy to use and easy to clean. The domed lid is made of a smooth matte black polypropylene and has the special Bodum safety and aroma seal to keep your coffee warm for a longer time. Brewing coffee in the Brazil is one of life's great pleasures.

Bodum's Brazil press utilizes unbreakable polycarbonate for its carafe, which makes this model an excellent choice for campers, students, or travelers who like to make fine coffee on the road. The press method is considered by many aficionados to be the best way to make a perfect cup of coffee, since no paper filter absorbs and removes the essence of the flavor. To make coffee with the press, remove the plunger/top ensemble, add coarse ground coffee to the glass carafe, add hot (but not boiling) water, stir with a spoon, and position the top and plunger in place. Allow the coffee to brew for about four minutes before slowing pushing down on the plunger. Pushing too hard or too quickly may cause hot liquid to squirt out. The domed lid features a slotted spout cover for pouring. To clean, simply scoop out the used grounds and pop the entire unit into the dishwasher. This 32-ounce model makes eight four-ounce dessert cups of coffee. Made in Denmark, the press measures 8-3/4 by 5-1/4 inches and comes with a plastic coffee measuring spoon. --Ann Bieri

 not unbreakable April 8, 2008

Yes, this coffee maker makes awesome coffee, but the glass broke the third time I put it in the dishwasher by just putting it down on the upper rack. Yes, I had to squeeze it in beween some things, but definitely didn't do that harshly.
so NO, it's not unbreakable!!!
Faulty Product, Emailed Company, No Satisfaction April 4, 2008

Beaker cracked, presumably due to heat, within weeks of purchase. I emailed the company and about a week later received a reply in which I was told the beaker isn't covered under warranty. The Bodum representative was kind enough to tell me how to order a replacement. Thanks so much.
During this time I purchased a nice Thermos Nissan stainless-steel press that shouldn't break anytime soon.
 No problems, 8 cupper October 23, 2007

Must have fixed flimsy filter foible, it looks to be well reinforced and has given no trouble. Easy to operate, filter and lid slide straight down with no hassle. Yes it allows for 4oz cups but all the recommendations seem to call for at least twice the coffee I've used in the past so now get half the coffee with twice the flavor. Seems like a fair deal to me.
Very Nice Coffee Press October 6, 2007

Hello after two broken IKEA glass coffee presses, I decided it would be desirable to get an unbreakable one. I found it very difficult to find a new press anywhere but the local starbucks, and since i didnt want glass I went online. This Bodum 8 Cup press seems to have an unbreakable carafe alright, the way the handle is attached seems to be abit off though. It seems to be pretty loosley or haphhazardly attached at the top end of the press. If anything breaks eventually it will be this. This one has been making a press a day, 5 days a week for about 2-3 months. Priced around $20 it seems to be good bang for the buck $$$.

Incredibly Cheap -- And Only Two Cups! October 4, 2007

I was incredibly disappointed when I pulled this thing out of the box. It is cheaply made, and the only 8 cups you might get out of this thing would be demitasse. It is probably good for only two American-sized cups of coffee. I am returning it forthwith.
