Many consumers have changed from drip coffee and coffee pods to French press coffee. The taste comparison between paper filtered coffee and coffee made from the Bodum 1548-01US press is beyond amazing. Most consumers are satisfied and happy knowing that they are four minutes away from a delicious cup of home brewed coffee and no more buying paper filters and you can also join this happy lot.
It sports an attractive and functional design that is both durable, heat-resistant with a borosilicate glass beaker and a plastic handle and base, making it easy to clean and use. The 3-part stainless steel plunger has a fine mesh filter, which allows for a premium extraction of your coffee’s aromatic oils and subtle flavors.
The mesh filter allows this flavor to be delivered direct to your cup and not absorbed by a paper filter. Plus, no paper filter means no waste. The patented safety lid prevents the splashing of liquids while pressing. All parts are dishwasher-safe.
In fact, the Bodum Press is a refinement of the cowboy coffee brewing method, minus the campfire and straining it through a sock. By all standards, the press does what perking, dripping and steaming ground coffee cannot do: produce a stout, yet smooth cup of coffee.

Our opinion
You don’t need a high dollar french press to make great coffee if you do it the right way (with course grounds). The Bodum 1548-01US offers a good way to press your coffee at a price that is hard to ignore. It boasts a good design, that eschews the common shiny metal surfaces in place of polypropylene which makes it more fun and colorful including the black color. All these reasons make it a recommendable choice for anyone looking for a decent coffee press but on a budget.
