Bodum Insulated Stainless-Steel Travel French Press Coffee and Tea Mug, 0.45-Liter, 15-Ounce, Black by Bodum [Parallel import goods]

Tenemos uno que tiene en casa 10 años. Este para mí significó hacer un regalo de calidad y cobijo. Duradero cumple lo que promete.

I thoroughly enjoy this French press; use it daily and no longer bother with any other coffee maker. Understanding how a French press works and knowing what to expect, I can confidently give it five stars. The insulation works fantastically -- my coffee is piping hot after plunging still rather warm up to two hours later. This has been a large issue with my other presses (including those from Bodum). Thank the maker, my coffee no longer goes cold. And the volume is enough that I get a heavy dose of good French pressed coffee every day (even with up to three scoops of grinds). Not like some small presses that force me to make a second cup. Other reviewers have mentioned seemingly negative points that I will also address. First, the sealing of the lid: This is not an up-endable travel mug. Full stop. But it's not advertised as such. Remember, it's a press, which means the plunger mechanism must be able to move. For the price, you can't expect the hardware that would create a waterproof seal around the plunger. So, yes, if you turn it upside down, it will leak. That said, if the mug tips and you quickly right it, it won't leak so quickly that you have coffee everywhere. I carry mine out and about on a daily basis, put it in the outer pocket of my backpack and, as long as I'm a little careful, I have no problems. Second, grinds in your coffee: On the last few sips of coffee, I typically do taste a few grinds that have managed to slip around the edges of plunger screen. It's not the end of the world and it tells me my coffee is done for the day. The edge of the plunger screen is a silicone-esque O-ring which is enough to push most grinds to the bottom, but like all French presses I have used, some may get by. You must also understand that you are not pouring the coffee out of the press (which further keeps grinds from getting into your coffee cup). You are drinking directly from the press, so you can't expect zero grinds 100 percent of the time. As long as I know this, I'm not bothered. Third, problems operating: If you use it properly — not with super fine coffee powder, pushing the plunger consistently but slowly, sometimes making a few attempts — the screen doesn't get blocked and there isn't the pressure buildup that would force water (and grinds) around the edge of the plunger. Some folks complain this happens every time. Operator error isn't exactly something to complain about.

I love a good black coffee and Bodum has made the best takeaway coffee press/mug. I've had a smaller one of these for many years and it's so well worn, I decided to replace it with a new one and discovered they came in a larger size (bonus!) :) So I can guarantee you that these coffee mugs last and last. Just use your favourite ground coffee add hot water and go! If you use milk, you'd probably need to make your coffee first, press it; and then add the milk afterwards (I'd imagine). It also keeps your coffee hot for hours, so no more cold coffee if you're out and about!

Excellent for the go, handy and practical . Arrived on time

Great cup. Use it daily
