Chambord - 8 Cup, 1.0l

Well made, good construction . Spare replacement parts available . Best one I’ve used. Classic

Bought as a housewarming present.recipients love it. As replacement parts can be bought easily it is a present that will always last.

I'm really quite hesitant about writing this review. When I bought the product I really wanted to love it because it was a Bodum and you always hear nothing but good things. Let's backtrack a bit... I started getting into nice coffee probably around a year ago. I've always just drank the instant stuff, but having tried a proper cup of the brown gold my hearts been yearning for something a bit more special. I had a conversation with a fellow coffee-drinking friend and he recommended I try a french press. Intrigued, I nipped to Sainsburys and bought a cheap french press. I must admit, it actually wasn't a bad wee job at all. Plastic in materials, but ultimately produced nicer coffee than any instant I've ever tried. So yes, one day I dropped it and it shattered. A part of me was secretly delighted for I've been eyeing up a Bodum press for a while. I went straight to Amazon and placed my order for the Bodum Chambord (the very one being reviewed). Once it arrived, I excitedly (yet carefully) removed the item from the packaging. Wow - she's a beaut. The materials appear to be very sturdy and of a high quality. A very stylish addition to any kitchen countertop. Now onto the coffee. The coffee turned out absolutely delicious. I'm not going to lie - I expected nothing less. Ultimately this is a great french press. It looks the part. It appears to be well made and produces lovely coffee. So why only 4 stars? Well, within the first 1-2 weeks of ownership, I noticed a slight change in how the lid fit over the glass. At first, it was nice and snug, creating a secure seal and kept the coffee extra hot for a reasonable amount of time as it brew. But after those initial few break-in weeks, the lid no longer gave that secure fit. Now it just sort of sits loosely. You could almost say it's just hanging there. The lid is on, but it's not sitting tight with the glass. Does this affect the quality of the coffee? I'd say it does a bit, but not tremendously. It still makes a really good cup of coffee, but it's never really proper hot once poured. Normally I'll give it a blast in the microwave after just to bring it up to scratch. Still, 4 stars for a good wee french press!

Fantastic price - hardly anymore than a replacement glass. Very nice press that makes good coffee and looks the part. The glass is very tight (cannot remove it) but thats not really an issue and is certainly better than it falling out when pouring. Overall I would highly recommend, far better than cheap unknown brands as it really seals the grouts in so that you can drink the cup right to the end. Perfecto

Back story: Yesterday we bought some ground coffee from Costco that had rave reviews, but remembered we no longer had a cafetiere after our clear-out of frustrating belongings before moving house. (The cafetiere we dismissed was from Sainsburys about 8 years ago. It looked nice, but the spout was so rounded that so much coffee was wasted with it being impossible not to pour without it dribbling down the cafetiere - this also meant always having to pour drinks over the sink. Back to yesterday: The Costco we were in didn't sell cafetieres, and being a Sunday, other shops were soon closing. So, remembering the amazing Amazon delivery service, I searched for the cafetiere with most and best reviews. Today: It arrived in time to wash it up for making after-lunch coffees, all in tact and well-protected in the packaging. Easy to wash, looks smart, and more importantly pours accurately! The cafetiere recommends using course-ground coffee, and the coffee we bought yesterday is fairly fine, but had no problem with it getting blocked or with granules passing through. I hope this lasts us many years!

Simply the best quality.

I've been going to get one of these coffee makers for some time, now I've done it and I'm so glad I did. It's a simple item that works...it looks good, it's easy to use and easy to clean, unlike my old percolator. You couldn't ask for more! Now, there's never a shortage of reviving, restorative, comforting coffee available, and it was a good price, too!

Classic design, makes proper coffee withe the minimum fuss. No need for filter papers, no complex machinery, and is full dishwasherable. Why if good coffee is this easy does anyone have to have freeze dried coffee? This is the only downside to this cafetiere, once you start using it you can never go back to instant coffee. This 1 litre model is perfect for a couple or small family. It will do three good sized mugs or six coffee cups in one press, but is still quiet happy doing a single mug. For a single cup you might want a smaller one, but since they seem to be more expensive I dont see the point in getting a smaller version.

La compre ya hace meses y no ha dado ningún problema. Esteticamente preciosa y fina. Fácil de limpiar. perfecta tanto para café como para tes o infusiones. Deciros que sobre la cantidad de café que se puede hacer dicen que 8 tazas y supongo que se refiere a cafés de taza de cafetería que son de varios tamaños y en general bastante mas pequeños que las de casa. Así que calculad que si os llenáis una taza de casa (la típica con forma de "vaso" con asa) os dará más o menos para unas 4 o 5 tazas tranquilamente.

Ho optato per questo articolo dopo aver letto le recensioni e valutato anche altre marche. Materiali di ottima qualità e finiture al top. La pressa e i filtri sono interamente in acciaio inox, smontabili e lavabili. Il coperchio e le parti che vanno a contatto con il liquido sono in plastica marchiata per alimenti. La caraffa è in vetro borosilicato, lo stesso dei materiali da laboratorio, sottile ma molto resistente ed è comunque venduta come ricambio. Bodum è un marchio svizzero (design). Sono rimasto particolarmente sorpreso (con piacere) nel constatare che è fabbricata in Portogallo e quindi in UE (finalmente direi) al contrario di altre marche blasonate (anche italiane) e poi costruite in Cina. Un ottimo acquisto ad un prezzo estremamente vantaggioso grazie ad Amazon, impeccabile anche nella consegna.

Was even zoeken om de echte te vinden. Ideaal.
