Love my new coffee & tea French press
So simple to use and the tea came out fast & delicious. What a great item to take on a trip if you love your freshly brewed tea or coffee. Great for cold or hot drinks. Great price for such a durable item.

Not fit for purpose!
This FinalPress was a gift for my husband, who wrote the following:I really wanted to like the FinalPress – it’s a nicely made piece of equipment, and I’m always interested in new gadgets and eager to improve my coffee-making. However, the FinalPress is a complete (and expensive) failure, and I can’t understand how they made such an obvious effort to design and manufacture well, but apparently failed to actually use the damn’ thing to see if it would make a halfway decent cup of coffee.The first and biggest problem is that the FinalPress is completely incapable of making anything more than the weakest, most insipid cup of coffee ever. I’ve tried using it according to the (rather inadequate) instructions provided with the unit, and I’ve also tried using it according to videos I’ve found online (including one that was referenced by FinalPress itself). The maximum amount of coffee that will fit into the FinalPress filter without jamming is around 12.5 grams – which should be just barely enough for a smallish cup of coffee at the classic 16:1 ratio. But even with that much coffee, the result has barely any flavor – they claim that it will make a strong cup of coffee, but in reality it won’t make even a low-normal cup. There simply isn’t room in the thing for enough coffee; and if you try to jam more coffee in there, there won’t be adequate water flow for the coffee to infuse properly.That alone is enough to invalidate the FinalPress; but in addition, it’s somewhat difficult to clean properly, and it’s tricky to load efficiently since it doesn’t come with any kind of funnel. (Their videos show it being loaded with a spoon – but if you’re grinding your own coffee, you want to be able to dump the coffee into the filter straight from the grinder.)Finally, the coffee (if I must call it that) has a lot of “fines” left at the bottom of the cup – something that I could forgive if the coffee itself were any good.In short, the FinalPress is a complete failure as a coffee-making tool; it probably works OK for tea, but who wants to spend $54.00 for a fancy teaball? We’re returning our unit for a refund, and I recommend that anyone who actually likes coffee avoid this thing like the plague.

Can’t make strong coffee
After seeing all the positive reviews for this product, and the size of it, I was really excited about getting this making coffee while traveling and camping. After trying it for a number of weeks I have to say I’m extremely disappointed and wish I could still return it.It’s a high-quality product in terms of how it’s manufactured and it’s held up well. The concept is wonderful. The actual coffee however is tepid. I’ve tried multiple ways to make a strong cup of coffee that actually had some good flavor and it can’t be done with this unless you empty it and refill it at least three times While trying to make a regular size cup of coffee. That’s just a little cumbersome and as a detractor from the whole purpose that I bought it.After reading about Aeropress, I’ve upgraded to that product which runs about the same cost. It’s a little bit bigger, but still very travel friendly and it makes a great cup of coffee on the first press.Like I said, the the quality of this product is exceptional. After multiple uses. It held up very well and still looks brand new. If you like weak coffee, this is definitely a great buy for you if you like a moderate to strong cup of coffee then just know you’re gonna have to use it at least two perhaps three times to get the same taste you would get from a K cup

Una prensa de muy buen gusto, buen diseño, fácil de usar, portátil

Das Produkt hat nichts mit dem Video gemein, es kam in billigen Pappschachteln an, lose in kleiner Plastiktüte, verbeult und eindeutig aus China. Viel zu teuer und das Geld nicht wert.

I bought 2. One for home or work, and one for travel and campervanning. Compact form and well made. Very nifty for a single serve. Easy to clean.
