BonJourMaximus French Press Coffee Maker, 8 Cup, Silver

After living in Europe for nearly 12 years, I learned to enjoy stronger coffee. It has been several years since owning another French press & I was tired of the US coffee makers. I purchased my F.P. With the hopes of restoring my love for a perfect cup of coffee & I did!After studying & reading many reviews on which F.P. to buy, I cautiously settled on this one. After using it for several weeks, I'm sure I made the right choice!What does it offer? 1. A fair price 2. A quality product 3. Easy use 4. Dual screening system 5. NO plastic on coffee! 6. Easy cleaning (rinse every day for 4-5 days & fully clean on next use) 7. Aesthetically nice 8. Most importantly, a perfect cup of coffee!!!You won't be disappointed!Enjoy!

OK, we LOVE this french press. It's sturdy, with all metal parts (except the inside of the large top, which keeps heat in), including the long nut that holds the screen on its shaft, which in some coffee presses is plastic and has failed on me, leading to disastrous spills and insecurity when pressing the screen down. Not only is the assembly strong, it also presses down easily, the fine screen keeping coffee grounds out. I really don't know why other presses can be so difficult to push down, but I have done nothing different with this one, which works like a dream -- despite the fact that I grind my beans quite fine, more than instructed, in order to get every last drop of flavor out of them.We loved this press so much that my fiancee and I bought a second one as back up. I am a heat freak, requiring my coffee to start and stay very, very hot. This press has an extension of the plastic lining of the top that you can swivel to prevent heat loss through the spout area. The pot is easy to clean and the carafe does not slip out of its metal casing when unknowing friends try to make coffee on camping trips and pitch the carafe out with the grounds, shattering it on the rocks. That would not happen with this press!

First one arrived damaged, Amazon immediately sent a new one while waiting for damaged one to return. We are very pleased with this French press. It makes enough for my hubby and I to have 2 (not quite full) cups of coffee. It's easy to use and clean. It seems pretty solid, love the all the stainless steel and looks super sleek and modern on our counter top.In case you are wondering: yes, there is plastic underneath the stainless lid. I was trying to find one without any plastic at all (next to impossible) and I couldn't tell from the pictures or feedback if it had any plastic. Well, at least now I can let other viewers know it does. Although it does have a neat little steal filter the coffee touches before it's poured, which is also stainless. This will get rid of any extra coffee grounds.

I bought this for Crio-Bru roasted cacao bean "coffee." It works perfectly. Get a color you absolutely love so when you see it sitting on your counter, it's beautiful to your eyes instead of more kitchen clutter.Works perfectly. It seems to be made out of the same kind of commercial glass as lab equipment - which is great for us fumble-fingered clumsters.

My husband and I have been using this for a few months now. In general the coffee brewed by it is quite good. Unfortunately the "double screen" effect doesn't do much to filter out the sediment. I'm now wowed by it, but it's small, portable and makes a good cup of coffee.

Coffee making is one of our passions. We make espresso; brew French press and vacuum; roast our own coffee; and have two, "big deal" grinders respectively dedicated to espresso and brew. Counting the BonJour Linear we have eight different French presses.I bought the Linear to please me wife who, seeing it in a British television show, remarked that she thought it was attractive, and without any expectation that it would make better than any of our other presses.The Linear is an attractive, and well made press. The base, which holds the glass carafe is metal (apparently stainless steel), while the top seems to be chromed plastic. In every way except two, it's similar to several Bodum presses -- for instance the Bodum Eileen. Those two are a piece of mesh at the pouring spout for a final filtration of coffee "fines," and a "flavor lock" plate which allows the user to close off the press filter from the pressed coffee after the plunger is depressed and stop further extraction.The tolerances aren't tight enough for either thing to work completely, but they do work somewhat; and to my surprise the Linear is enough different from a Bodum to make just enough of an improvement to be noticeable. But if you want a pot which makes a significantly cleaner cup while preserving the intensity of press, you'll have to invest in an Espro.We like our Linear quite a bit and will use it often, but it's not enough better than our other presses to knock them out of the rotation.Bottom Line: Worth it, slightly better, but don't expect miracles. If you're not in love with the Linear's looks, it's not enough better to buy.

Really pleased with this purchase. The items available in stores in my area were plain and boring. Love the colour and the quality seems really great so far!

Precioso modelo, muy práctico y fácil de usar y lavar. Excelente para disfrutar el sabor de mi café matutino, vespertino y nocturno 👏🏼👏🏼

Absolutely perfect! I ordered the blue version and haven't had an issue at all with peeling or colour wearing off so far. Makes about 2 1/2 mugs full (in my opinion, but maybe my mugs are large)

It looks and works great!

with a name like The Copper Punk, I have to say this product is of high quality and made of Copper.
