Overview
A 17-ounce, 4-cup glass french press with a plastic frame that shields countertops from heat, using a three-piece stainless mesh filter instead of paper. Sized for single-to-two-mug brewing rather than a full pot.
The plastic frame wraps the lower half of the glass beaker so it can sit directly on a table without a trivet, and the dishwasher-safe parts make daily use straightforward. It suits buyers who want a small batch rather than a full carafe for a household.
- 17 oz / 4-cup capacity
- Stainless three-piece filter, no paper needed
- Heat-resistant borosilicate glass beaker
- Dishwasher-safe parts
Who it's for
Fits solo coffee drinkers or couples who want a small-batch press for a desk or compact kitchen. Not sized for households that need to fill several mugs at once.
Pros and cons
- Compact 17 oz size fits one to two mugs
- Plastic frame protects tabletops without a trivet
- All parts are dishwasher safe
- Some units let grounds through the mesh filter
- Sized for individual servings, not a full pot
Performance notes
The stainless three-piece filter sits inside the plunger and is meant to trap grounds without a paper filter, though at least one buyer found the mesh didn't fully seal against the glass. Brew strength is controlled by steep time rather than a built-in timer, so taste is judged by color or trial and error.
