Comments about REI Table Top French Coffee Press - 32 fl. oz.:
Great product. I had the GSI one for 2 years, and it survived over a year in Afghanistan. Got tired of taking it back and forth from work and home, so nabbed this bad boy yesterday and it seems to work even better, which i thought would be impossible. Not to mention the size and tough construction, i am able to brew coffee, or use it a blunt smashing object.

Comments about REI Table Top French Coffee Press - 32 fl. oz.:
This was a gift I used originally on a fishing trip, but have since used on our countertop 3-4 times/week. I have always preferred french-pressed coffee, and this affords not only wonderful, clean coffee, but the temperature maintenance lost in glass. I arrived at nirvana ratio of water:grounds in 2 attempts, and we have been throwing coffee down our gullets like fiends!

I was shopping for a coffee percolator for use with a camp stove. Based on previous reviews I bought this french press instead. I love it. Coffee tastes great and it's just so easy. First pot was a little strong (I used a heaping Tbsp of coffee for each cup of water). Subsequent pots were perfect and it stays hot for a good amount of time. I will now use this over my drip coffee maker at home as well as taking it camping.

Comments about REI Table Top French Coffee Press - 32 fl. oz.:
I just went camping at Lake Wenatchee for a few days and I bought the REI French Press because I couldn't go without my coffee. Next to its looks I was pleased with the durability and most of all how well it retained heat. Super easy to use and clean. My only complaint is that we used a separate container to boil the water and when I poured that into the press I wasn't sure the exact amount of water so I had to guess on the amount of coffee to water ratio. But that's not too big of a deal. I love my press and encourage you coffee drinkers to check it out.

love this coffee press! got it for camping but i wanted to try it out before our next trip. loved it so much i'm using it daily at home. it's replaced my glass coffee shop french-press. keeps the coffee warmer than my glass one and looks great. had a few friends over for breakfast yesterday and they were all asking questions about it and admiring it. so easy to clean and i like the extra filter in the pour spout to catch any stray grinds that might escape the press filter. the spout pours well and i haven't had a drip yet.

Comments about REI Table Top French Coffee Press - 32 fl. oz.:
So far I have only used this product at home and it admittedly was the first french press I've ever bought and really liked the insulated walls and the non-glass structure so that I had to worry less about breaking it.
My struggle has been getting all the coffee filtered out of the grounds. My guess is that from looking at the shape of the filter and the downward facing lip to keep the coffee grounds at the bottom, that my smaller batches (maybe only half the capacity of the press), doesn't leave enough grounds in the bottom that designers planned for so I can't press the filter down to truly get the grounds drained.

Comments about REI Table Top French Coffee Press - 32 fl. oz.:
We were very impressed by this coffee pot on our recent family camping trip. It is simple to use and it makes terrific coffee. The double screening process really works. The only downside was we wished we had the bigger pot. The 32 oz size would be good for two coffee drinkers in our family. We used 4-5 heaping tablespoons of coarse ground coffee and it was so smooth. Like others have mentioned, I'm thinking of using this at home.

Comments about REI Table Top French Coffee Press - 32 fl. oz.:
My wife loves her coffee in the morning, especially pressed. This press is a dream. It keeps the coffee warm for a wild, big enough to share a pot with friends and very easy to clean. My one drawback that I don't like is the paint is to easily scratched and so the pot doesn't look so good. It does looked used though. Very happy with the purchase.

Comments about REI Table Top French Coffee Press - 32 fl. oz.:
Bought this as a Valentine's Day gift for my partner. I'd been shopping around for a new press for a while; our glass carafe press bit it several years ago, and we were left with only my 16oz. travel press. Needless to say, two coffee fiends and one small coffee press equals bad.
Found this at my local REI, and it was in her favorite color, to boot. Love how there's a secondary filter in the spout. The press filter and plunger *could* be a little tighter, but again, the spout filter takes care of any stray grounds, so no real complaint. Double-walled, insulated design is excellent. Love the fact that it's durable stainless steel, and has a non-skid bottom (very important cat-proofing item).
