What customers say
This Timemore French Press earns high praise primarily for its superior build quality and excellent performance. Reviewers consistently note the robust stainless steel construction and sleek design contribute to a premium feel. A key functional benefit is the double-walled insulation, which significantly improves heat retention, keeping beverages hot much longer than standard presses. The fine filtration system effectively minimizes sediment, delivering a remarkably clean cup. While priced higher, customers feel the durability, enhanced performance, and overall quality strongly justify the investment, resulting in high perceived value for serious coffee and tea drinkers.
Know before you buy
No, this unit is not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand washing the glass carafe and stainless steel components with mild soap to maintain the integrity of the materials.
Yes, the high-density stainless steel mesh filter is designed to handle both coarse coffee grounds and loose leaf tea effectively, ensuring a clean cup regardless of your brew.
The 450ml capacity is equivalent to approximately 15 ounces, which typically serves one to two people depending on your preferred mug size.
The carafe is made from heat-resistant borosilicate glass, which is durable and designed for thermal stability. However, as with all glass brewers, it should be handled with care to avoid impact with hard surfaces.
The large, curved base provides a lower center of gravity, which significantly increases the stability of the brewer on your countertop. This prevents accidental tipping while you are pressing the plunger.
