filter works ok but will un screw if you mess with it left coffee in it for a few days to season the stainless and get rid of the metallic flavor from the first pot works great keeps coffee hot long enough for me let stand for an hour and it was still hot.
If you want a good press and can due without the thermos go with Bodum. After a while I was able to make coffee (Less grounds in coffee) with this press by slowly and carefully plunging the press. If your really counting on the idea of your coffee staying hot with the thermos style, you might be disappointed a little. I was dis appointed the first several tries with making coffee with this press because the coffee grounds seemed to make its way past the screen into the coffee. The thermos is not great at keeping the coffee hot for long.
Very well constructed with no glass parts to break.easy to travel with.Using regular drip ground coffee does leave grounds in the coffee.it will work better with a coarser grind that will not get through the filter.
It was one of the great conversions of my life. Oh no.Then I got an idea, an epiphany. Bad situation turned out okay, this time. Wow. But not everyone has extra french press parts just lying around. I got grit in my coffee. I wish it could be a great review, but it is NOT.
So I purchased another one. Good coffee. AAAHHH. And then I planned a camping trip. I used an old screen on my new press.
I fell in love with a french press. I tried it, and it worked. The screen didn't fit rightly. Then my french press broke. Afraid of another broken heart, I mean carafe, I decided to take the plunge and buy an unbreakable french press.
However, the thermos function is not very good at keeping coffee hot; barely better than a traditional glass container. This is a very attractive coffee maker and it turns out very good (not great) coffee.
