Review on ☕ Veohome 1 Liter Stainless Steel Unbreakable Cafetiere French Press Coffee Maker - Double Wall Design for Long-lasting Heat Retention by Robert Decamps

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Great heavy pot. Defective pressing mechanism. UPDATE 4/22/20

update 4/22/20 - Photo of the press sent to the seller. The seller replied that the press does not look broken. My reply has been sent to the seller below: Wednesday April 22, 2020 at 10:22 AM. Martha Jean wrote: I screwed it back on but the abs are loose and when you press it down it doesn't go down right but goes down in one go. sweeps as if it were not a tummy and does not press anything. Might be a fitting issue. Luckily I bought another press because I thought it would come later. The other works correctly, just like yours initially. I'm a longtime Revain customer, so I don't really care about your press. I maintain my opinion that this is a poorly made device. I've looked again at the comments and see that the lid/cover doesn't fit properly. If you click on it, it goes all the way down. I didn't say it's broken, but that it doesn't work properly. It actually fell apart and I put it back together but it hasn't worked since. I threw it away this morning. - It fell apart and I put it back together using the photo on the box which luckily I didn't throw away so I cut it out. There were no instructions per se so I had to fiddle around to notice a tiny piece that had to be unscrewed to reassemble the press and filter. Well it didn't work again, the press doesn't work. I'm angry because I think this is due to poor quality control (and this is unlikely to have happened to anyone else). I have just sent a message to the seller. The kettle itself is heavy, keeps the coffee hot and is enough for one cup of coffee. I usually use K cups. However, I have bought expensive blue mountain beans from Jamaica and Italian mixed beans through Revain. It was a significant investment including a press, mill and whole grains. The taste of the coffee after pressing was better than Starbucks K-Cups.

Pros
  • Good product for its price
Cons
  • weak
