“It's a really good one for 35 dollars.
I got tired of cleaning bacterial slime out of my 100-dollar Cuisinart Coffee Maker.
This one is more sanitary and much easier to clean.
And it doesn't break like the glass ones.”

“I've had that Secura press for 3 years now, and I have to say it's been fantastic. If you want to make less coffee I suggest stacking two screens together to get a better extraction with less water.”

“I also shared a link above to a 1500ml stainless steel Secura that I have used for a year. Prior to that I also used glass. My experience does not bear out that the Steel loses heat faster that Glass resulting requiring the coffee to be reheated.”

“The triple filter system trapped all sediment, resulting in a smooth cup with rich aroma and flavor.”
