Review on Bodum Chambord French Press Coffee Maker Stainless Steel with Locking Lid - 4 Cup, 17-Ounce Capacity by Leo Govindan

This new model has a completely closed bottom so the glass bottle is better protected. This is particularly important to me as I take it with me when camping. Not only a better design, but also a more attractive look. There is always some coffee grounds through the filter. But you shouldn't expect a stainless steel pre-filter to perform as well as a paper filter. It's good to have a locking function on the lid. But if I had a choice, I wouldn't pay for it because I don't think it's necessary. Overall a great product with great workmanship.
