Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Frieling Polished Stainless French Press, 17-Ounce
Customer Review: Excellent Product
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for my wife, who likes to read the papers in bed with a HOT cup of coffee on weekends. After using glass French press pots for a while I didn't have much faith that the coffee would really stay drinkable for long - but now I'm a believer.
First of all, this pot is beautiful to look at, the picture does not capture the modern design. It is also solid, especially the press mechanism (which typically breaks on cheaper presses). The mesh seems to be smaller than on other ones as well, so you get a strong cup of coffee without the grounds.
It's perfect for a couple of cups of really good, hot coffee in the morning, well made and pretty - well worth the cost.
Customer Review: works well
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this smaller Frieling press because I wanted something just big enough to make one fresh, not over brewed cup of coffee or tea for both my girlfriend and I. It does the job very nicely. There is no plastic involved in its construction. Its all durable stainless steel. The double wall construction does a decent job keeping the water hot while brewing. The mesh does a good job of keeping loose tea and coffee grounds out of what I'm brewing. When you get yours, just make sure you visually check on how well the mesh seals against the inside of the pot. The first one I bought was defective in that way and I sent it right back.
Customer Review: Don't know what all the fuss is about

Not sure why everyone likes this pot so much.Got this as a Christmas gift and was pretty excited to try it out. That's where the fun ended.It lets grounds through which ruins the cup of coffee.I'm not talking about super fine grounds , as I learned already not to grind fine. I'm talking about LARGE grounds. Does do a better job of keeping brewed coffee warm than my old Bodum with a glass carafe.So that's something I guess,but considering the price my girlfriend paid the performance is sub-par.Customer Review: great, makes great coffee...super hot!

I tried all of those gadgets/methods for 1 cup brewing. The french-press, especially this double-wall-insulated one, is the best for brewing single cup of coffee. I love strong-bold coffee, and hate drinking warm coffee. This press is the best in ensuring that you'll have a HOT cup of stong-bold coffee. Lastly, this press will never break, unlike those glass-presses.Customer Review: Good Coffee Maker

Bought this for someone else, but I use it all the time. 4 cups is overstated, more like 2 cups. Works well at keeping the grounds away from the coffee and is well insulated. Don't think you can make drinkable coffee with this and have it remain warm for hours, though. Comes apart easily for cleanup. I only wish that it came with an extra replacement screen or two.
