Love it!
These French Presses are fabulous. The best thing about them is they are made of good quality plastic and are durable. What's not to love?

Excellent Coffeemaker
This was bought as an anniversary gift for my husband, and he seems very fond of it. Frankly, after tasting the coffee it was worth every penny spent on it. It is not as high profile, or fancy as some of the more expensive models, but it still seems to present plenty of quality, and serves it's purpose very well. I am glad I chose it!I would highly reccommend it over many others I have seen and tried.

Disappointed
I was so excited to get this French press in the mail. I had just recently chipped one and was looking for a good replacement. I saw this one, and it claimed to be unbreakable. I thought it would be worth a try. I really liked the filter system. It has a filter attached to the lid as well so when you pour your coffee, it is actually filtered twice (once after you have pressed the grounds to the bottom and yet again when you pour your coffee). If I ever got grounds in my coffee, it was due to a mistake on my part...so far so good. About a week ago, the rod and filter came unscrewed. I had read about this happening and screwed it back together. Then a week or so later, I had made a fresh pot and was taking the rod and filter out to empty the beans and realized the filter mechanism had broken into four pieces. I was very disappointed. This French press claims to be unbreakable. I believe BonJour is probably referring to the carafe when they say unbreakable because it is plastic rather than glass like most presses. In addition, unlike other presses, this press is almost entirely plastic instead of metal (which would be much more durable). I had only had the press for a month, and I was disappointed that their "unbreakable" product did not last longer than a month. Needless to say, I bought another press, and it was not a BonJour one.
