This is a very well made press. Materials, workmanship, fit & finish are top shelf. Cleans up easily. The first use, I used an extra fine ground coffee. None of the grounds escaped into my coffee. The double seal on the plunger keeps it strait and along with a fine mesh screen does an excellent job of preventing grounds from getting into the drink. The exterior of the press remained cool to the touch while the contents remained hot. I’ve owned several French presses and this is the best I’ve found yet.
The only con that I would have is it’s probably a little big for most cupholders but it’s great for using as a coffee press it’s absolutely awesome to keep your coffee hot and I mean for an hour plus with the lid on very durable and affordable great product
