☕ Bodum 1928-16US4 Chambord French Press Coffee Maker - Chrome, 1L (34 oz) Review

Shop the color that suits your kitchen. This copper is beautiful and beautiful to see in the morning. I wish for more enjoyment. The plunge mechanism tends to wobble and sometimes falls unevenly unless I'm holding the metal base with my other hand. After four different types of coarse beans, it is rarely as smooth as in the video. Coffee can be amazing if you take the time to experiment with beans, grind size, water temperature, and grind-to-water ratio. Follow the instructions on the packet of

I had a different French Press but chose this one for a number of reasons. I was looking for a smaller size as I only ever make coffee for myself in the morning and don't need an 8 cup size, I also need a stainless steel filter and the ability to wash everything in the dishwasher. What struck me as soon as I received this item is that it is a solid, well-made press. The filters feel strong and the top is pretty solid in size. Having the 17oz I have to say the width of the press is unusual and I

I love the Bodum coffee maker! I wish I had found it sooner. Produces excellent coffee without sediment. We got rid of our filter coffee machine and only use our coffee presses and coffee maker (for my husband). I don't understand other reviewers concerns about the thickness or lack of glass carafe/mug. It doesn't look too thin. It is a borosilicate glass that can withstand high water temperatures and everyday use. If it were thicker it would break too easily. Cleaning is very easy. I add some…

I have a larger version of this French Press and have been using it for years with no problems. Using a French Press is one part science, one part cooking, and three parts magic/luck. Once you figure out your preferences, you'll be in the land of coffee nirvana. Since I rarely need 33 ounces of the Nectar of the Gods, I opted for the three-person version. Delivery was as promised and even when the delivery man left the box in the driveway the product was received intact. It was exactly as…

As a coffee maker, this French Press works very well. It filters soil fairly well and should last for many years with proper care. It has a clean and modern design and looks classy. The biggest problem with this is that it is difficult to clean. The grid is sandwiched between a flat metal disk and a piece of wire wound in a spiral. This assembly must be disassembled for proper cleaning, otherwise coffee grounds and debris will remain between each of the 3 elements. Worst of all, there is no…

I used to have a Bodum Press when I needed a quick cup and didn't want to brew a whole cup of coffee in the coffee maker. One day while cleaning the coffee maker I found so much dirt in it that I realized I could never use a drip machine again. SAD! So I took a break and pushed 100% and have never looked back. The coffee got better, and a little more cleaning by the day compared to the horrors that lurked in the innards of a drip machine set it apart from the competition. the opportunity to…

Everything about this coffee maker met or exceeded my expectations. (With a disclaimer at the end of the review.) I've heard that all "French presses" leave a very small amount of coffee grounds in the coffee. Everyone said it was a small prize for the best cup of coffee that is easy to make at home. One even said this fatness was a "badge of honor". Well I've been using my Bodum for a few weeks now and I still haven't noticed any coffee grounds in my coffee. Maybe one day the submersible…
