The Monet coffee presses were always the best because they use a fine metal screen at the spout instead of slats to filter the coffee when you poor but now that Bonjour has purchased Monet, they use the same glass carafe and holder as the Bonjour presses so the top is now loosely fitting instead of a decent friction fit and the screen tends to spin off the spout as well as coffee will poor through the gap between the lid and the carafe/pitcher. I suppose you could wrap the lid with plumbers teflon tape to get a better fit. Pity I no longer have my old Monet presses from before the Bonjour purchase.

Still a good french press, have bought a few over the years.
I like this coffee press and would give it 5 stars except for the fact that they added a plastic filter dome at the top, which is not needed and the filter dome collects water between the lid and the plastic dome liner. I’ve discarded other brands of coffee presses for that reason. Nothing like making coffee, putting the lid onto the carafe, only to have old dishwater leak out from the lid area into the coffee. It took some doing, but I was able to remove the nut that holds the filter dome on, and I removed it. Now I have a one piece hollow lid, which does not collect dishwater and I’m happy. 🙂

Great for coffee and wonderful for tea
The first thing to note when using a French press is that it’s extremely important to grind the beans to the correct degree. If they are too fine, you will end up with a cup of sludge. It is also important to note that the longer the press sits with coffee and water in it, the stronger the drink will be. However, if used correctly, this press makes an excellent cup of coffee that I find far superior to cups made by drip coffee makers.My true love, though, is tea and I love to use this press for my tea. I have a nice Bodum glass teapot but I actually prefer using my Bonjour press when I make loose tea. The mesh in the filter is so fine that it does an excellent job of keeping small leaves out of my cup and in the bottom of the press. As with the coffee, though, it’s best not to leave tea sitting in the press as it will get stronger and the taste of the tea will be ruined. I make sure to empty the press completely once my tea has brewed in order to avoid this problem.I’ve owned this model for years now and have never had a problem with it. I usually wash the carafe in the dishwasher (taking care where I place it, of course) and there’s not a single chip or crack in it. This is a wonderful product.

Waste of money
This coffee maker is much too smallto be of use. Says it’s a 3 cup size, but really it’s closer to 1 cup.

This is my second Bonjour coffee press. They are pretty and work well, but the glass is very fragile and breaks easily. I’ve broken both, so I will buy something different this time.

Awesome French Press
I’ve owned a Bonjour French Press now for around 12 years (same model as this one save the extra screen filter at the lip) and I’ve never had any trouble with it. It makes as good of coffee as any method I’ve used (obviously not to be compared with Cappuccino) and only an electric percolator that brews right at 200 degrees has come close for me (I own most coffee makers known to man including an almost never used drip maker, a Turkish coffee pot, a mocha pot (that I don’t use since getting a good espresso maker), a Presto percolator (awesome coffee too; not in the same realm as the old stovetop ones that could burn coffee which gave the percolator a bad name in the past) and a good quality espresso/cappuccino maker. The Bonjour French Press gets more use than all of them!It’s so easy to use (in combination with a kettle) and I just rinse it out to clean it on a daily basis and throw it in the dishwasher once a week or so (comes out spotless without having to remove the carafe from the holder. The glass has held up to 12 years of use, probably 3 days a week over the years on average (sometimes I used the cappuccino maker and other times 7 days a week with the French Press and I get on Turkish coffee binges, etc. at times). The glass has held up. Just keep in mind “8 cups” is really about 3.5 normal sized ‘mugs’ (those cups are 6oz cups based on coffee history when cups were tea-size sets). I’ve known people that have had Bodum presses break, but I’ve bought this for friends and family and have never heard a complaint. I just bought another one for my mother who is sick of her Bunn maker (that if not used regularly needs cycled once to get hot coffee and isn’t designed for small batches and like all drip makers I know doesn’t brew coffee at its optimum temperature of ~200 degrees Fahrenheit (something the French Press and percolator excel at).
