Review on 12oz French Press Coffee Maker by Wyndham House™ by Jennifer Jenkins

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Just looks good - coffee, tea and espresso

When I first received this I was very excited about the look and initial feel. The metal base and handle are separated to avoid burning your hand and make cleaning easier. Unfortunately, that's about all I like about this device. The base of my flask was horribly bent, making it impossible for the particles to compress and seal on the sides. Not difficult to bend, but still a nuisance. then the spring was far from pushing the strainer to prevent particles from getting into your coffee and even after I adjusted the spring it still lets some large particles through. This is because the top has so much play that you can tilt the piston almost 10 degrees in any direction. Finally take it apart to clean it, such a problem. Having to tighten two screws together is such a terrible design. I won't buy this again.

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Compatibility
