 Best cup of coffee ever. May 6, 2008
Cookie 123 (Ashburn, VA, USA)
I don't think I can drink drip coffee again. I also purchased the Capresso electric glass kettle which boils water very quickly so it doesn't take any extra time to make this than it did for drip. Amazon had the best price also, I shopped around. Be sure to follow the directions carefully especially when it says to use a coarse grind. I could see the filter being ruined by finely ground coffee. The Starbucks Pikes Place is wonderful as well as Trader Joe's Columbian/Sumatra blend. I could never drink black coffee before and now I can.
 Glass Breaks Too Easily April 15, 2008

DO NOT BUY ANY BODUM COFFEE OR TEA PRESS THAT CONTAINS GLASS. BODUM USES A SPECIAL GLASS THAT IS EXTRAORDINARILY FRAGILE AND BREAKS FOR NO APPARENT REASON.
I love Bodum Coffee Presses. But I would NEVER recommend anyone buy one with a glass beaker. You will need to replace the beaker frequently, since the special glass Bodum uses is extremely fragile, and breaks repeatedly for no apparent reason at all. I replaced four beakers, two glass tea presses, and several beakers from milk frothers in short order before giving up. Make no mistake, you do not have to bang the glass against anything for it to break. It simply cracks spontaneously for no apparent reason
Bodum has come out with some presses with a LEXAN clear plastic beaker.
These do not break. I assume they came out with the LEXAN product because of problems with the glass. Be warned. Bodum Chambord 8-Cup Coffee PressBodum Chambord 12-Ounce Coffee Press
Coffee for the coffee snob April 12, 2008

The Bodum Chambord 48oz press is the second Bodum press I've owned.
Basically, its amazing. Makes about 5 standard mugs of coffee. The only downsize is waiting for water to boil.
 Outstanding coffee April 12, 2008

I have had this product for three months now and it takes coffee to a whole new level. It brings out flavors that are not apparent in a conventional drip coffee maker.
As noted by others, the coffee maker is simple to use and I have not had any difficulties with the French press at all. However, the carafe is made of thin glass and appears to be easily breakable. To avoid this, I have been using a rubber spatula for both stirring and grind removal purposes.
Bodum now makes a double walled insulated carafe, which I will consider as a replacement if the glass breaks. Ordinarily, I would have rated this 5 stars for the quality of the coffee; it was downgraded because of the quality of the glass carafe.

Long while ago, I saw similar product at a friend's house wondering if it does make the taste of coffee any difference. A few months ago a close friend gave me two bags of coffee bean from Java. I finally made an effort to search for a hand-cranked coffee grinder and a coffee press. As soon as I received the products I bought on Amazon, I was excited to try them. The aroma and the taste of coffee made my daily morning ritual even more satisfactory. This product seems to be durable and easy to clean. I love it.
