Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bodum Chambord 12-Ounce Coffee Press
Customer Review: used to be good -- no more
Summary: 1 Stars
Alas, like so many other products, this one has become cheap and shoddy. I bought my first Bodum french press almost 20 years ago. It lasted that long with regular use, made good coffee, and became much loved in my house. A few weeks ago I bought a replacement -- same company, same size, same model -- and much to my disappointment, this thing is a piece of junk. The metal parts are flimsy and about half the time the grinds slip past the filter, as well as the ridiculous plastic filter at the top. I'm throwing it away. It is that useless.Customer Review: tiny, but well made
Summary: 4 Stars
I got this to replace my old, broken French press, which truly made three cups of coffee. This press makes enough coffee to fill one very small mug. I measured the amount of coffee I was able to get out of it, with the press filled to the metal ring near the top, and discovered that it was almost exactly 8 ounces. On the instructions, the maker calls one cup 4 ounces, and if you count the grounds at the bottom, and fill the pot to the upper lip, rather than to the metal ring, there are perhaps 12 ounces in the pot, but seriously, THIS IS A ONE CUP POT! That said, it is well constructed and makes a fine cup of coffee.Customer Review: Bodum Chambord 12-Ounce Coffee Press

This press is a great pot and does the job just fine. I wish I had gotten the next larger size because I usually would like a second cup almost immediately. Otherwise, it's great!Customer Review: French Press coffe pot

I really love it. I use it daily at work and now other people are interested. I brought one for my daughter and she just loves it too.The coffee is exceptionally good.Customer Review: Not a press
Summary: 1 Stars
This coffee press doesn't press the coffee. It just isn't designed correctly and not worth the trouble. My old Mr. Coffee makes better coffee. And yes, I have had wonderful coffee made with a coffee press that worked, so I do know the difference. I will keep looking for a good coffee press
