NISONG French Press Coffee Maker - Create Delicious Coffee at Home in Minutes

Amazon CustomerAmazon Customer: My purchase of this stainless steel french press was the best purchase that I have ever made on Amazon. Not only is the product amazing, but the customer service of the manufacturing company is beyond comparison.
Looking first at the product, it's super durable, easy to clean, and makes the best coffee that I've ever had. I think my favorite part is that it keeps my coffee nice and hot until I want to pour myself a cup or two.
As I mentioned, it's really easy to clean, and that's because the parts are easily unscrewed from each other. Unfortunately, because of this I lost a little piece of it that helps the filter stay positioned before plunging it down to filter the coffee. Since I live with a bunch of pig roommates, I knew that that piece was gone for good in the mess. After propping the plunger up with various items while I was waiting for my the coffee to sit, I knew I needed to contact the company about getting a replacement piece since I loved my french press so much.
As soon as I was thinking of this, the company seemingly read my mind and sent me an email asking how I liked the product and if I needed any replacement parts. After telling them about my missing...

Samuel Lemons: Since I'm up first (and the one to make the coffee), I don't know how warm it keeps it over a couple hours, but my wife reports that it's plenty hot for her by the time she gets to it 2 hours later.
I'm pleased that this french press has no plastic parts, makes plenty of coffee and (as described above) does a fine job keeping the coffee hot for a couple hours.
The only thing I'm a bit disappointed about it the mesh/screen that filters the grounds - the center of the screen does not have a washer/grommet like my other french presses and I've been surprised to see that (with nothing to hold it in place) the small metal wires can angle up or down and poke unpleasantly during cleaning. I'm not as concerned about that as I am the longevity of such a filter. They did include two other filters- so maybe that's a nice feature or maybe it's a signal that they won't last too long.

The only other note is that the hole at the top where the plunger line goes -both the outside and the inside of it - are worn in such a way that it seems it's been used for years. Again, not something I really care about. It seems perhaps just an artifact of the drilling/manufacturing but I do also...

Frank R.Frank R.: Just buy a second Aeropress. We all love our AeroPress coffee makers but they're a real pain when you have guests and need to crank out multiple cups in the morning. I bought this to solve that problem. Here's what I found.

First, to those of you who are buying a double-walled press to keep the coffee warm for later, don't. After a 4-minute press my coffee was 166 degrees, but 20 minutes later it was down to 135. And it was tannic. Leaving the coffee in the press means it's still brewing and it doesn't improve it. You'll want to pour it into a thermos bottle or just plan on pouring it into another cup and reheating it.

This thing does not have a double filter and I think you'll see in my photo that it leaves a lot of sludge. The coffee was ground to medium-coarse in a Capresso burr grinder. The first cup didn't have too much sludge but the second. . .well, see the photo. I didn't press it particularly hard nor try to drain the last bit out, either. Plan for it, and don't expect to get the last cup out clean.

Cleanup is not bad, but grounds get caught in the filter rim so it's not quite as easy as rinsing it off. I thought I could make several cups quicker (and...

the Bug's mom: Loved the lid design that enables you to close off the spout to keep the coffee hot - and it does stay hot. The only thing that would make the lid better is an engraved notch to help you line the opening with the spout visually. Also loved the larger capacity - more relaxing, less refilling and its nice for when we have company. Loved that there is NO plastic anywhere - well made, durable design. Two extra mesh replacement screens were also included. The price is exceptional considering less well designed pots with plastic are 2 and 3 xs the price with less capacity and no closing off of the spout to keep your coffee hot. It is also very aesthetically pleasing - sleek, modern look. The only minor but - be careful when pouring - I am not sure if it is the increased capacity and needing to fine tune our pouring muscle memory, but there is an occasional drip. Overall, this is a great replacement to my old Starbucks insulated press that lasted 17 years. If you love a French press coffee and have more than one person you are serving or you are looking for a great gift for a coffee lover in your life - this pot is for you.
