This new 8-cup coffee maker adds an entirely new chapter to the French press success story. The temperature safe borosilicate glass carafe of the Bean French press coffee maker is encased in colorful plastic which protects the glass beautifully. The Bean features the precision pour, making it spill-resistant. The silicone gasket connecting the lid and the glass has an insulating effect and helps maintain the heat and aroma of the coffee longer. The simple push of a lever lets the coffee flow into the cup – all easily manageable with one hand. The Bean coffee maker comes in eight beautiful colors, is easy to clean and dishwasher safe.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Makes Excellent Coffee, but...
This is my first french press. My sister and brother in law only use these. So we went to visit them on vacation and coffee has never been the same. I tossed the drip crap we had and bought one of these from my local Sur La Table for $30. It makes the best tasting coffee ever! I do not use coarse ground as it states. That was a little weak for us. I use fine grounds, making an almost espresso strong coffee. I am now making home made lattes for great money savings!
Now the one con-the lid. Yes, it is cool to have a no spill feature, but you can't clean inside the lid! I can forsee some nasty growth in there sometime in the future. We use ours everyday. I thought about putting vinegar and hot water in and pouring that out to help, but then I have to be REALLY sure to get all that outta there before brewing again. Not worth the hassle for me.
I plan on returning this model tomorrow for one that just uses the beaker to pour and not some plastic part...

Bodum Bean French Press Coffee Maker
This coffee maker is an improvement over the previous Bodum French Press that I have. This one keeps the coffee warmer for a longer period of time. It has a special rubber rim in the lid that closes the pot more tightly.
Nice press, but annoying cleanup
As a French press, this item is fine. The molded full length handle, the locking top, and the lever-operated spout make it easier, safer, and more comfortable to pour than most, and the main thing is it makes good coffee. The color options are a bonus if you like the fun factor; your press can bring an extra little smile even before you get that first aroma of coffee. However, the screen in the plunger mechanism consists of 3 pieces - a fine mesh screen, a solid steel disc, and a spring to hold the screen against the disc. It functions OK, some fine grounds get through it like in most presses (admittedly this is one drawback of a mechanical filter versus a paper filter in a drip brewer). My only real gripe is that it is common for grounds to become lodged between the screen and the disc, which makes it necessary to physically dig them out during cleanings. That creates a risk of bending the filter screen. I have two other presses where the screen is permanently sealed in the...
