Fantastic Value for a Fantastic Press. Having discovered French Press coffee a year ago I bought the Bodum Columbia Insulated French Press, which I love. However spare parts are not readily available for that line yet. So I started shopping for a press that I could get spare parts for. I have also read that a glass press can produce a slightly more complex flavored cup of coffee because the coffee will cool slightly while brewing. So I picked this press out based on my past happiness with Bodum products. I am the only coffee drinker in my house so I decided that I did not require a large 12-cup press. I also knew that I would not drink all that coffee before it became too cool. This is my first 8-cup press. I will spare you a review filled of reasons why you should use a French press to make coffee and instead tell you why you should buy this French press to do it! So here I go.Durability- This press is composed of a glass beaker that lifts out of the metal-banded handle assembly. It has a metal lid that is polished to a beautiful mirror finish. Also has a metal plunger rod, metal filter and metal filter ring and cross filter base. However it has a plastic shoulder nut (my one complaint, although I was able to get a metal replacement from Bodum at no cost). The way the plunger assembly goes together is simple and can be assembled easily by hand. First the plunger rod is fitted through the hole in the lid. Then the shoulder nut is screwed onto the rod. Then the large metal ring with round holes and a spring around the edge goes on. Beneath that the fine metal filter then beneath that the cross filter base. The rod screws into the cross base and secures everything up against the shoulder nut. This description may seem somewhat complex however it is very simple in practice and fool proof. The plunger lid assembly is quite sturdy and durable. The metal-banded handle assembly, which holds the beaker, is also sturdy and polished. The handle is a very hard plastic and comfortable to grip and hold. Fully assembled you have a durable (for glass) press that can easily stand up to daily use. I use mine daily with no problems at all.Ease of cleaning- This press easily disassembles by hand and can be completely cleaned with little effort. I soak mine in hot soapy water after every use then rinse clean and towel dry. Proper cleaning is critical to maintaining consistent coffee flavor. A dirty coffee maker will taint coffee with bad tastes. This press cleans very easily, much easier than my old drip machine did!Ease of use- This press is used as any French press. Drop your grounds in, add water off of boil, let grounds steep for 4-5 minutes then slowly press the plunger down. Pour and enjoy. If you make more than you will drink right away then pour it into a separate insulated thermos. I leave my coffee in this until I have it drank. With the lid turned to close the spout this coffee stays warm enough for me for a half hour. Face it; the first cup will be too hot to drink right away. The second will be hot but drinkable. The third will be warm. This makes 2-3 coffee mugs. Great for a single drinker who likes 2 or 3 mugs at a time, like me. Or great for 2 light coffee drinkers (a mug and a half a piece). Coffee will always be best the sooner is it consumed after brewing is completed. In this press or any press/coffee maker.Overall quality- For around $30 this is a fantastic value. Like I said above I was leery of the plastic shoulder nut which could wear after multiple assemblies and disassemblies, but I was able to get a metal replacement at no cost making this a much better value. All in all a great investment in better coffee drinking and piece of mind. I also like the ability to get spare parts if I should ever need them.In closing I really love this press it holds up to daily use and maintains it great classic looks. Makes great coffee and is perfect for a single coffee drinker who likes 2 or 3 mugs of coffee as I do. It’s smaller size than my 12-cup press makes for easier cleaning and handling. I am very happy with this purchase and for $30 you cannot go wrong. I recommend this to you highly! Whether you are new to French press coffee making or like me wanted a smaller easier to clean daily coffee press. I still love my 12-cup for parties, but this press is my personal daily coffee maker of choice. I love it!
High Quality Model; Makes 32 ounces of the Best Tasting Coffee Homemade Coffee! Wish I Switched to a Coffee Press Earlier. I’d heard that a french press makes the best tasting coffee but put off buying one for years. To be honest if I had some peer pressure to influence me I’d probably not have resisted for so long. I only know one person who uses a coffee press and they swear by it.The reason I finally bought this was that my last two drip coffeemakers broke in month thirteen, right after the warranty ended. Small plastic parts broke and I took the plunge to try this french press which is mostly glass and metal, figuring the simpler construction might ensure it would last longer (and it’s less expensive too).One thing I like about the Chambord is the glass beaker is a separate piece. This is unlike Bodum’s Brazil model which has the plastic fused onto the glass. I know replacement glass pieces are sold separately in case mine breaks.I liked the look of the Chambord which is sleek and has a shiny silver metal and black plastic for the holder and cap. I looked at the Bodum Chambord side by side with other coffee presses (like the Bodum Brazil) in a store and could see that this one looks more sophisticated and classy.I also like the 32 ounce capacity of the Chambord.Easy to UseThe coffee press is so easy to use. I boil the water then wait two minutes, as the manufacturer says not to use boiling water. I put the coffee grounds in it then fill it with 32 ounces of water. I stir it with a wooden chopstick then place the lid on and wait four minutes. Then it is pressed very gently and slowly. The coffee is ready to serve.My one complaint about the glass container is there are no marked lines for various measurements. If you want to make coffee in a certain number of ounces, such as to make an 8 ounce cup, you will have to heat the water and measure it in a heat-safe measuring cup then pour it in.I note the manufacturer has legal warnings in two languages which fill over two inches of space on it so it is clear that Bodum wasn’t leaving markings off to have a clean design look.Since this uses no electricity and is small I am taking it with me when camping. I am thrilled to be able to have great tasting coffee while camping or staying in cabins without electricity but with access to open fire or portable camping stoves which can be used to boil the water.Best Tasting CoffeeI have two favorite coffees which I’ve been drinking for over two years using a drip coffeemaker. I was shocked at the superior aste of the coffee made with the same pre-ground beans from this coffee press. There was no bitterness! I’d thought the bitterness was supposed to be there and had accepted it. (This idea is now funny to me. I also note when reading reviews of my former coffeemaker – made by Mr. Coffee – some customers said it produced a bitter brew. I now know that to be true. )I have never tasted home-brewed coffee that tasted this good.32 OuncesBodum says this makes 8 cups of coffee. In America 6 ounces is the standard so that’s a bit confusing to this American coffee drinker. However many people now drink 8, 12, 16 or more ounces in one “cup” of coffee. What you need to know is the Bodum Chambord makes 32 ounces of coffee.CleaningI find this easy to clean and have no complaints. With anything you use there is usualy some cleaning, even a drip coffeemaker has parts to clean.Making Coffee in VolumeMy Mr. Coffee drip coffee maker took nearly 15 minutes to make a 12 cup pot so I have no complaints on the time it takes to make coffee in a coffee press. To me flavor is more important anyway; I’d rather have a coffeemaker for daily use that produces superior coffee every day and have a bit of inconvenience when company is here. If I have to, when company is visiting, I will use an insulated coffee pot if I need more than 32 ounces of one kind of coffee. It will actually work out fine as some of my family usually wants decaf while others want caffinated coffee, so I’ve always had to brew two pots and use an insulated carafe when I brewed with a drip coffeemaker anyway.The CostThis cost me less than half what a drip coffeemaker costs and much less than those one-cup coffee makers. I’m happy with the low cost. As I said earlier if the glass beaker breaks I can buy a replacement for a low price.In ConclusionThis makes fantastic tasting coffee. It may be a different process than you have done before but it is easy. This is an inexpensive item with a simple process with little room for mechanical failure. Don’t hesitate like I did!

Perfect Cup Everytime. For those who enjoy a daily cup of amazing coffee the Bodum Chambord French Press is for you. My first experience with a Bodum Chambord French Press stems from my parents. They used if primarily for the “special cup of coffee,” the weekend demands and the Bodum French Press has continued to represent that ideal. I use my Bodum (34 oz.) nearly every day to make the perfect cup of joe. What really stands out in this product is its simplicity, longevity, and how it literally improves the taste of nearly any coffee.Simplicity of Design and Use The Bodum design is simple, smart, and easy to clean. The entire thing consists of only three pieces; the glass carafe, lid with the filter, and the steel frame. Its simplistic design combined with an overall aesthetic appeal that allows you to leave this French press on the countertop without looking out of place or ugly. Did I mention its dishwasher friendly? When you go to use your Bodum you’ll find that its incredibly easy to use, in fact the instructions only come with 4 steps. Step 1, put coffee in your Bodum. Step 2, boil water. Step 3, pour the boiling water in the Bodum and let sit for a few minutes eventually pushing the filter down. Step 4, pour yourself a cup of coffee! They make it as easy as possible to enjoy a superior cup of coffee (more on that in a minute).Longevity Unlike comparable French presses, Bodum uses high quality glass, steel and hard plastics for their product. This means that you’ll be enjoying your press for years to come long after others would have broken. I’ve owned 1 other brand of French press before. The reason I made the switch was due to the handle breaking on my old one, a problem I don’t anticipate happening with my Bodum. As I stated before, my parents also have a Bodum (51 oz.) which they’ve had it for nearly 15 years! Not many other products can claim that type of longevity.Do You Even Like Coffee?! Those who know coffee, know that a French press easily makes the purest cup of coffee out there. Regardless of the brand of press, overall taste is so dramatically improved over the standard coffee maker that once tried other ways probably just won’t cut it anymore. The combination of pouring boiling water directly onto the coffee induces some sort of chemical reaction that brings the absolute best flavor out of that bean. Even Folgers, the most average cup of blah there is, can taste as if its fresh out of the jungles of Columbia when using a French press.Negatives Honestly, practically none exist. Strong, quality materials ensure it won’t break, it looks good on the countertop, and makes the worst coffee out there taste a million times better. The one and only thing that comes to mind is price. In your big box stores, the Bodum demands top price for its top quality costing up to 60 dollars for a 34 oz. press. However, the advent of online shopping has cut that price nearly in half. The affordable, highest quality Bodum Chambord French Press is the perfect tool for the daily coffee drinker. Whether you’re buying it as a gift or for yourself, I’m confident that this press will improve your coffee experience. Happy pouring!

However, the advent of online shopping has cut that price nearly in half. The affordable, highest quality Bodum Chambord French Press is the perfect tool for the daily coffee drinker. Whether you’re buying it as a gift or for yourself, I’m confident that this press will improve your coffee experience. Happy pouring!
Perfect Cup Everytime. For those who enjoy a daily cup of amazing coffee the Bodum Chambord French Press is for you. My first experience with a Bodum Chambord French Press stems from my parents. They used if primarily for the “special cup of coffee,” the weekend demands and the Bodum French Press has continued to represent that ideal. I use my Bodum (34 oz.) nearly every day to make the perfect cup of joe. What really stands out in this product is its simplicity, longevity, and how it literally improves the taste of nearly any coffee.Simplicity of Design and UseThe Bodum design is simple, smart, and easy to clean. The entire thing consists of only three pieces; the glass carafe, lid with the filter, and the steel frame. Its simplistic design combined with an overall aesthetic appeal that allows you to leave this French press on the countertop without looking out of place or ugly. Did I mention its dishwasher friendly?When you go to use your Bodum you’ll find that its incredibly easy to use, in fact the instructions only come with 4 steps. Step 1, put coffee in your Bodum. Step 2, boil water. Step 3, pour the boiling water in the Bodum and let sit for a few minutes eventually pushing the filter down. Step 4, pour yourself a cup of coffee! They make it as easy as possible to enjoy a superior cup of coffee (more on that in a minute).LongevityUnlike comparable French presses, Bodum uses high quality glass, steel and hard plastics for their product. This means that you’ll be enjoying your press for years to come long after others would have broken. I’ve owned 1 other brand of French press before. The reason I made the switch was due to the handle breaking on my old one, a problem I don’t anticipate happening with my Bodum. As I stated before, my parents also have a Bodum (51 oz.) which they’ve had it for nearly 15 years! Not many other products can claim that type of longevity.Do You Even Like Coffee?!Those who know coffee, know that a French press easily makes the purest cup of coffee out there. Regardless of the brand of press, overall taste is so dramatically improved over the standard coffee maker that once tried other ways probably just won’t cut it anymore. The combination of pouring boiling water directly onto the coffee induces some sort of chemical reaction that brings the absolute best flavor out of that bean. Even Folgers, the most average cup of blah there is, can taste as if its fresh out of the jungles of Columbia when using a French press.NegativesHonestly, practically none exist. Strong, quality materials ensure it won’t break, it looks good on the countertop, and makes the worst coffee out there taste a million times better. The one and only thing that comes to mind is price. In your big box stores, the Bodum demands top price for its top quality costing up to 60 dollars for a 34 oz. press.

Dawniej produkty marki Bodum były wyśmienitej jakości. Teraz niewiele różnią się od tańszych zamienników. Minusem jest to, że filtr fusów szybko się odkształcił. Część filtra zawija się w górę, a część w dół. Mimo to trzeba przyznać, że zaparzacz działa prawidłowo i pozwala przygotować aromatyczną kawę.
Petite and functional. I had never used a French press until recently traveling in the Netherlands where they had one in our apartment. I always heard people rave about the coffee and the easy process. I loved it! They had a larger, heavier version made by Bodum. It made delicious coffee but my second cup was never really hot enough. We drink four cups in the morning so it makes sense to brew a pot, but in the afternoon I like one cup. Instead of saving a cup from the morning and microwaving it (I know, I know, that’s a sin!), I decided to get this smallest version of the Bodum French press. It works just like the larger version and makes delicious coffee. Note that they refer to a “cup” of coffee as 4 oz, where I drink a “mug” of 8 oz. It will brew a full measuring cup, which is 8 oz. You get a little less after you press it. Advantages are that your one cup is always hot, clean up is easy, and my husband who drinks decaf can brew a cup whenever he likes. I did find the glass to be a bit thinner than the larger version, and even though I used boiling water, my coffee was not extremely hot. The box was a bit messed up as if it was used, and it had an Amazon sticker saying this product “got a second life”. I thought I was buying a new product. But inside, the French press was in perfect condition, had the correct Bodum logo on the glass, and it came with its own measuring scoop, which is super convenient to make the best coffee without guessing. This would be great for travel too. I’m glad I got it.

Best looking Press ☕️. Love this press ☕️ it is my my second one.It is very durable and safe, looks nice.It does not keep coffee hot a long time but is to be enjoyed for it’s delicious full flavor.I only bought the second one as I dropped the beaker on the counter as I was wiping inside and it got a small hairline fracture.
If your going to be new to a french press ask around. Might get bothersome. Much more work than Keurig pods. Makes you feel like a connoisseur. Just don’t let anyone know your using Beans from Aldis, (I do).
Gourmet taste. Makes the coffee I love even better. Like having gourmet coffee in France. Makes a little over two large cups of coffee. Easily taken apart for cleaning.
Wonderful French Press. This press has served me very well. Prior to purchasing, I had seen some reviews mentioning a lack of durability. I have found the press to be highly durable and it has stood up to many trips through the dishwasher and spoons hitting the sides during use. I highly recommend this press.
Nice quality. I purchased this French press for my mom. It is very easy to use and very functional. It seems of high durability and it keeps the coffee temperature hot. It is definitely good value for the money.
Muy practico el producto y de buena calidad.

Gave it for a gift and the couple loves it
El tamaño ideal, creí sería demasiado pero terminé usándola diariamente

Great but glass can crack. Perfect for solo coffee making. I would just advise you to clean the inside very carefully. Don’t stuff a large cloth or your hand inside to clean the jar because the glass cracks easily. I have had to replace this one and one that was a larger size. Just use a brush and it will last.
