Review on GROSCHE Zurich French Press Coffee Maker - Purple, 11.8 fl oz, 3 Demitasse Cup, 350 ml - Stainless Steel Coffee Press with Filter by Shashi Jain

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not worth the price for me.

I only used it twice because it was really a bit badly designed. The fine mesh on the plunger proved very difficult to clean and somehow grounds still leaked into my coffee which I thought was a very odd combination of events. When I looked at it I was excited at first because it didn't seem like there would be a way to get through the floor like some of the others I've used in cafes. Spring. In itself not a super big deal. The bigger issue for me was the small ring on the bottom that wasn't attached. My first thought was that maybe it could be something like a matching stand. Not much - it's difficult to get the abs back with one hand and standing up from the top feels a bit awkward. Also, you can't get your abs closer to you when they're on the table in the bottom ring, because they'll loosen up. I'm feeling a bit silly because I read about this little ring in some other reviews and thought they exaggerated the problems with it. Turns out the other reviewers were right. It was pretty cheap but still not worth the price I paid.

Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
