What Customers Say About Bodum Columbia 8-Cup Stainless-Steel Thermal Press Pot:

Coffee presses are the way to go. After breaking 4 of them, we realized the stainless steel pot, although not cheap either, was going to be the best route in the long run. Don't learn the hard way like I did by buying the glass beaker style first. The glass beakers break very easily and aren't cheap. Plus, it keeps the coffee warm for a while, which the glass does not. This is a great product if you are interested in a coffee press.

I love the French Press and the Bodum stainless steel pot has a much nicer look that the glass versions, but the 'thermal' qualities here are a bit of a stretch. Keep in mind this is not a thermos, which would have air space between the outer wall and the inner wall and would come with a vacuum seal and would actually keep the contents warm for a reasonable amount of time, which this unit does not do. If you plan on using it to make a pot of coffee for several people and don't plan on topping off the cups later, then this is a good product. But don't plan on coming back for refills and expect the coffee to be hot.

So in that sense, I am very satisfied with it.This may sound silly, but a while back I realized if you turn the lid "closed". I would liken it to the high-pitched noise you hear from some TVs. However that isn't what I really wanted from it in the first place; I just wanted the coffee to stay hot long enough for my second (or third) cup, which I never got with the glass french press pots. I have had the Bodum Columbia thermal press pot for a couple of years now. But if money is tight in your household I recommend getting a cheaper glass french press, with a separate vacuum carafe or thermos to keep the coffee warm. Sometimes I hear a very faint squealing noise coming from the pot after I pour in hot or cool water.

Over time, I think the vacuum seal is weakening.

i.e.

If it weren't for that I would give it four stars.In other words, this is kind of a vanity purchase.

Prior to that, I had experience with glass-style french press pots.The claim that this pot keeps the coffee "hot" for two hours is ridiculous, though it will definitely still be warmer than room temp after two hours.

The pot still feels structurally sound, and it still does an ok job keeping the coffee warm, but I am suspicious that the thermal ability won't last for too many more years.

turn the arrow mark away from the spout.

after pouring the first cup, it helps keep the coffee hot just a bit longer.But here is the important part.

If you are set on buying this you will probably still enjoy it.

(Or the Aeropress actually, but that is a separate discussion altogether).

The part inside was part stainless and part plastic. I ordered this coffee press after looking at many online. With all of the health issues regarding plastics and food nowadays, one wonders why plastic would be used inside a boiling hot coffee pot. It is beautiful; however, I would not use it for coffee. The product was listed as stainless steel. I returned it and bought a Frieling instead. It is also made in China, but the parts inside are completely stainless steel.

I've used this model for over 2 years now without nary a problem. Very tight seal (still), have to use some force to press it. It replaced several glass french presses that I always seemed to break in the sink. soap + my clumsy hands = broken glass.Might seem pricey at first, but it quickly paid for itself as it is about indestructible. I don't get much grounds unless I try to get every last drop out of it. I've learned to like a bit of grit :)It's hard to go back to auto-drip methods after you taste the quality of french pressed coffee.
