French Press Coffee Maker

I was skeptical about this French Press Coffee Maker especially because Id never heard of the brand name before, but I figured Id give it a shot and, worst-case scenario, return it if it didnt pass muster. Boy, am I glad I got this.

My fiancee and I had tried two coffee presses prior to this (avoid the IKEA model, as it is garbage!) and this one trumped them both, hands down, in both quality of the coffee press and of the included accessories. Seriously, the free milk frother they give you is stellar, as is the bamboo mixing spoon and the measuring spoon. Frankly speaking, we figured we wouldnt use the accessories and theyd be garbage, but we now use them literally every day. Theyre of unparalleled high quality and very durable its now been three months since we first got this and the press itself and all the accessories are holding up perfectly. We couldnt be happier.

The action of the press is impressively consistent. French coffee presses typically let through a few grounds with each batch of coffee, and thats a tolerance you just have to accept when using one. Not with this model. Weve made probably 100+ batches of coffee over the past three months now, and not once have I encountered a single coffee ground in my cups, even though we use a relatively fine grind (youre supposed to use coarse ground coffee, but I prefer it fine). Color me wildly impressed.

The glass is very thick and high quality, which adds to its durability and keeps the coffee hot for longer. Cleaning is a breeze and the whole mechanism of the press comes apart for those times you want to do a deep clean. Putting it back together is simple and intuitive. I could go on and on, but just know that this is a high-quality coffee press with high-quality accessories. You will not be disappointed.

Another huge plus: Vekens customer service is outstanding, which to me was surprising. I dont expect to get great customer service from sellers on Amazon, but they definitely subverted my expectations! I really cant say enough good about them as a company and the products they make.

Seriously, get this coffee press if youre in the market. You will be pleasantly surprised at how good it is!
