Don't buy this. It is out of date, the coffee doesn't taste good, and the glass breaks.

If you want hand-pressed coffee, buy an aeropress instead. Your coffee will taste so much better. Plus, aeropress is made of plastic so it does not break. Because a French press will break: on the table, in the dishwasher, in the sink, while pouring boiling water into it. . . it will break and you will hopefully be sad but possibly be injured.

The coffee doesn't taste good from a French press! It has more grounds than any other comparable method: aeropress has no grounds, espresso might have fine grounds, pourover might let some big grounds escape. French press lets grounds of all sizes through the mesh screen, and when you're done there's a thick slurry of very fine grounds that the mesh doesn't even attempt to filter. It's undrinkable.
