Clever Chef French Press Coffee Maker, Maximum Flavor Coffee Brewer with Superior Filtration, 2 Cup Capacity, Black

I use this for both coffee and teas. It’s easy to use and easy to clean. It works perfectly for making a single 1 cup serving. Company is good to work with as the first one I ordered broke during shipping. It was replaced very quickly by the company.

Very satisfied with me purchase. Makes great coffee for a fraction of the price and space and the glass feels very durable, it wont break easily. I use this for an 8oz cup of coffee at my desk in the morning at work. Here is how i make it- 2 tablespoons of coffee grounds- 8oz hot water (between 195f and 200f for best results)- put coffee grinds into press- add enough water to cover grounds- let sit for 30 seconds- add the rest of the water- cover with the top and plunger at open position- let sit for an additional 2 and a half to 3 minutes- slower plunge down- pour into cup immediatelyAs with all french presses you need to grind the coffee beans on a coarse setting. Let the coffee sit for a minute or 2 to let the excess sediment settle at the bottom and be sure not to drink the last bit of coffee as that is where all the sediment (excess grinds that didnt get caught by the plunger) will be.The press is easy to clean i rinse mine, cup and plunger, when im done drinking the coffee and wipe out the inside with a paper towl. Then i place the plunger upside down on the top of the press to help the rest air dry for the next day. In the picture i posted you can see the this press wont be able to make more than 8oz of coffee. For the price this press is well worth it.

Having been using a Keurig for a few years and have been relatively disappointed in the flavor. Some brands are better than others but overall the flavor was poor. I started grinding my own beans to use in the Keurig and it was slightly better but still lacking. As this little press was relatively inexpensive and seemed like not too much effort I decided to give it a try. I am so glad I did. The flavor of the coffee is so much better. My only complaint is that the two parts at the bottom (the seal and the metal filter) do not come apart and that makes it a little hard to clean. Sometimes some grounds get stuck between and the seal is not good. This can let some grounds into the cup. Even this little issue is minimal compared to the flavor of the coffee that comes out. If you are thinking about trying a French press this is a perfect little unit to test out. I can say with certainty that I am not going back to the Keurig any time soo n

It works really well. I’ve used regular ground coffee in it and I don’t get any grounds in my cup. It’s small. As it says single serving. I just say that I have never really “loved” coffee. It’s always been a take it or leaving thing for me. Well this little press has made me realize that coffee can be quite delicious. The difference between a drip machine, and this is night and day. It doesn’t have a that hollow bitter taste and feel that most coffee has to me. Coffee from a French press tastes as good as coffee smells if that makes sense. I think that it’s because the water is not boiling hot. There must be a chemical change that occurs in coffee when it gets too hot that makes it taste bitter. There’s also something fun about making a special cup of coffee just for me. No chain coffee house Is better. The only placeI’ve had better coffee is in an actual French cafe probably because they are using better coffee from the start. I’m going to try some different grinds and varieties of coffee in my little press.

This product is easy to work with and great for a solo cup of coffee

• Your review should focus on specific features of the product and your experience with it. Feedback on the seller or your shipment experience should be provided at www.amazon.com/feedback.Thought I was adhering to the above guideline when I submitted this for a review that was rejected for not following the guide submission guide lines - I assume. This was among my comments:"Following instructions for thorough cleaning I was rotating the hard plastic handle to align the holder to the pour spout for separating it from the beaker when it broke."I hope this review adheres to guidelines and is not considered a rant for trying to express a valid user opinion.I don't know how different to say it except "it is what it is". It broke during CAREFULLY EXECUTED, thorough cleaning steps. Anyway, I went back and reviewed the low star ratings by a few users and saw carafe breakage was a main issue for the few low (1 and two) ratings. That being said, glass is glass and not the most durable material for such torqueing as it is subjected to when removing the handle, in this model, for the "thorough cleaning". For whatever reason my purchase snapped at the carafe spout - known fact.I found the coffee it made excellent tasting and general cleanup easy. Had it not broken as described above, I would have given it a 5-star. Apparently, the overwhelming number of high star ratings by so many satisfied users means I am among the very low population that experienced this problem. I could find no means of getting a replacement carafe short of reordering this item again so I sought an alternative and decided to replace it with a stainless steel model (through Amazon) rather than running the (small?) risk of it happening again.This product is very reasonably priced and a whole repeat purchase of it was strongly considered but in the end I decided on the more durable stainless steel option for a slightly higher price. I would not discourage others from considering this product but just weigh durability into a purchase decision.

This is the second one. First one was returned because the screen did not filter the coffee ground out. The second one is exactly the same. Do not buy

This worked amazing in college for years
