Utopia Kitchen Borosilicate Glass French Press Coffee Maker 34 Oz, Black

I recently purchased the Utopia Kitchen Borosilicate Glass French Press Coffee Maker (34 oz), and it has been a great addition to my morning routine. First, the borosilicate glass carafe feels sturdy and well-made. It’s designed to handle heat well, and I haven’t had any issues pouring in boiling water. The thickened glass gives it a durable feel compared to some thinner French presses I’ve used before. The 34 oz capacity is perfect for making multiple cups of coffee at once, which is great when I have guests or want a second cup without brewing again. The stainless steel plunger and filter system works smoothly and does a good job separating the grounds, producing a rich, full-bodied cup of coffee with minimal sediment. Another thing I like is the simple design and easy cleaning. The parts come apart quickly, so rinsing or washing everything after use is straightforward. It also works well for brewing loose-leaf tea, which makes it a versatile addition to the kitchen. Overall, this French press offers good quality for the price. It’s sturdy, easy to use, and brews excellent coffee. If you’re looking for an affordable and reliable French press with a decent capacity, this one is definitely worth considering.

Works great. Very simple and portable, coffee comes out great.

Although I've had French Press coffee, I didn't like it. I hate sludge in the bottom of my cup. So I always made pour-over. But then I purchased brewable cacao which calls for a French Press. I decided to purchase a small, inexpensive one. This was cute and colorful, sounded good, so I bought it. I bought the one cup version. It's adorable! My daughter, who uses French Press regularly, squealed over it. Anyway, I began brewing the cacao in it and was very happy with the results. There is some very fine sediment in the cup, but it isn't bad. Then I began adding a bit of coffee during the final couple of minutes to give a mocha flavor. It surprised me that there wasn't much sediment even with the coffee. The flavor is excellent. It holds heat very well. The few cons with it are: The glass portion doesn't seem to remove from the plastic, so I can't get into the crevasses to clean the outside. I do personally find cleanup a bit difficult. Normally I use a teaspoon to get to the bottom to remove the grounds, or I rinse them out into the toilet because I don't have a garbage disposal. Recently I began scooping out what I can, then rinsing the rest out and putting them through a pour-over setup to be able to toss them into the garbage. That works well. Even though I have a small hand, I can't get into the one-cup press to clean it, so I have to use a long-handled glass brush. Finally, I broke the carafe, but that was almost certainly my own fault. I banged it against the garbage can rather than gently tapping it. Almost cried because I had no way to properly brew the cacao! Ordering another one today, this time in a larger size so I can reheat another cup later or have it cold in the 100+ degree heat. All in all, I'm not tempted to purchase a more expensive one because I see no need to do so. I'm really pleased with this and enjoy the ritual of making coffee, cacao, and tea in this press. Maybe I'll buy two and give one to my daughter!

This review is for the "Utopia Kitchen 51 Ounce 1.5 Liter French Press Coffee Maker, Tea Maker, Travel Coffee Presses.." I like that this product is available in various sizes. The largest capacity one is good for when I make batches of cold brew concentrate so it can last longer since it takes a long time to brew in the fridge. Alternatively you can cold brew your grinds in a larger or multiple containers and then just use one of these french presses to transfer your liquid and grinds to and press it out when ready. But it's nice that this container is large enough to then store 51 ounces of the liquid in when done. The filter works well to prevent grinds from getting into your coffee. The whole thing is easy to assemble, disassemble, and clean. The only downsides to me are that the lid doesn't have any kind of seal or tight fit for storing the liquid after, it is very loose and just sits in on top, and that the base is plastic with no rubber or silicone to keep it from sliding around on the counter or other surfaces. A lot of glass is exposed so this product is easy to break, as well. Otherwise, it functions as intended.

Really happy with this French press! It’s easy to use, makes great coffee, and is super easy to clean. Feels sturdy and looks nice too. Definitely a good buy

This was a gift for my mother. She loved the color and it is true to the pictures. It is the perfect size for a single cup of coffee and is easy to clean. The top does not have notches in it like other ones this size have, which makes it much more user friendly.

So easy to use and makes a GREAT cup or cups of coffee! Also very easy to clean and the price is good. I am saving a lot of money not using k-pods and getting a much better cup of coffee!

Lightweight and feels as cheap as its price, but also just OK. The glass fogs and gets dirty far faster than other cheap French presses I’ve used. The lid has a grate on one side, for pouring coffee through (but why, if the press works properly?) rather than just an opening to let coffee flow through. My experience has been that if the grate isn’t aligned well with the spout on the carafe, lots of coffee will spill from around the lid. It isn’t a very forgiving design. If you’re very careful while pouring and you clean the glass a lot, it’s fine, but I replaced this after about a week with another cheap press that doesn’t have these drawbacks.

Buen producto

Sehr zufrieden! - hält bzw ist stabil - macht was es soll - liegt gut in der Hand - 1L optimale Menge für eine Tasse am Morgen und Rest zum Mitnehmen im Thermobecher - Preis/ Leistung stimmt

best if you love coffee i got it cheap and works wonders

What else can you ask for this price? It's nice, does its job, and the filter can be easily removed and / or cleaned. The only "con" is that being made of glass you have to be careful when cleaning it, but that's just me being clumsy!

I love the little pot, use it every morning.
