Review title: Disappointed
Product review: This french press is beautiful with a gimmick, the filter that opens and closes. The design of the press makes it difficult to keep the stainless steel frame for the carafe clean of water minerals without taking it apart and upping your chances of breaking it. If you lay your plunger on a counter or table, it has the tendency to roll off. The ball on the plunger unscrewed causing difficulty threading on the flange to the filter and realignment of the filter. (My husband put it in a vice to tightened the ball enough to thread the flange on the filter.) The press is top heavy. If the ball (top unit) would roll off and drop on your toes, it might break a toe. As for the filter that open and closes, to stop brewing. Come on! I have tried it both ways..... I can't tell the difference and I have discriminating taste buds. The press is beautiful but a frustrating disaster to use and maintain. Don't buy it.
