Better than expected
Initially I selected this for the aesthetics and hoped that it was reasonably well insulated. It’s beautiful, sturdy and holds heat better than glass French presses. It’s easy to clean too.

Great press, stupid handle
This is a nice French press, it is thermal insulated so it helps keep the coffee warm longer. It is easy to clean. My only complaint is that the handle looks stupid, but I guess that's just a matter of style.

Matches Fellow Stagg EKG Kettle PERFECTLY
EDIT: I spoke with Michael at Lafeeca to explain my situation and he was kind, responsive and very generously offered me a partial refund. You can't go wrong with good customer service so I am increasing the stars on my review.The primary reason I bought this french press was because of it's aesthetic value. It is modern and minimal and the matte black finish is beautiful and matches perfectly with a Fellow Stagg or Corvo Kettle - it almost looks like they were made by the same company. The two of them together look great on the counter. It looks very similar to a YIELD french press which is 3x the price.The press is nice and heavy and the plunger operates well. The handle is comfortable and overall I think this is a good purchase. There are a couple drawbacks however ---1) The matte finish scratches easily and shows coffee drips very clearly. I have a few other matte black items in my kitchen and they all show smudges and drips so this is not unique to the Lafeeca. I would say, however, that the finish does scratch more easily than other items I have with similar finishes. The stainless steel does show through and stands out against the black. In order to keep this thing looking as beautiful as it did fresh out of the box, you need to be careful with it.2) There is a lip inside the lid that can be turned to "close" the press, as you have probably seen in most french presses. However on the Lafeeca, even in the closed position there is still a large gap where heat can escape (see photos). This results in lukewarm coffee after about 20 minutes. If you plan to share the pot or drink quickly - this shouldn't be much of an issue for you.Despite these points I think it can potentially be a good purchase for the right person. For $40 I don't think you will find a better *looking* press anywhere, especially if you have a Fellow kettle to match. If heat retention is not important to you and you are willing to be careful with cleaning it is a good value.

easy to use
I love that this Is stainless steel. I kept breaking the glass ones accidentally while washing or hit them against something. This doesn't break and contains the heat better and I can come back to warm coffee after drinking one cup. This is perfect!

Beautiful, lightweight, steel, and travel friendly
The media could not be loaded. I love how the Lafeeca French Press Coffee Maker looks. I got the stainless steel one and it is so shiny that I can see reflections clearly on it. I had a glass French press that cracked on me and I can already tell that the Lafeeca, being made from stainless steel, will be able to withstand rough and careless handling. Being so durable and lightweight I am confident that it can handle being in a backpack when traveling. The unit comes with two mesh screens which are essential for any French press, and they even threw in a long stainless steel metal stir that is just as shiny. At first, I thought I wasn't going to be able to put my hand into it because it looked so slim but I did not have a problem and can easily clean the unit thoroughly. The double-insulated walls allow you to grasp the French press while it is brewing and not be afraid of getting burned by the hot water brewing inside. Also, it did keep my coffee warm for over an hour. Overall, this is a great deal and I don't have to worry about it cracking on it. Best buy ever!!

Very Heavy, Beautiful, High Quality
This is a beautiful French press for sure. I bought the rose gold which is more like rose silver, and very very light in color (which is good if you don’t want it to be overly feminine). It’s extremely heavy duty, almost to a fault because its weight makes it difficult for me to empty the used coffee grounds into the trash bin. I don’t have a garbage disposal in the sink, so it needs to go in the trash. I think the weight would be a problem for someone with arthritis or issues with grip strength.It makes two 16 ounce coffees per max fill. And it’s beautiful in 4 minutes. I use 3 scoops of coffee grounds per 16 ounce coffee. Also it stays hot for over an hour but not sure about two hours yet, haven’t tried. No coffee grounds are in my mug, but you can see it’s richer and has some sediment (which is a good thing) compared to a cup from a coffee machine.One note I would make to the manufacturer is that it’d be nice to have a small line marking where the lid has an opening to pour the coffee. It will pour from any part of the lid, but there’s one part that’s more of a gap so the coffee can flow faster while pouring. It’s not marked though so it isn’t easy to see.

A steel press should las years
I always wait awhile to rate products. Who wants one two days in? I splurged on myself for my birthday in October 2022 and bought this expensive French press.It has a hole now in the weld where the pour spout is. It bubbles when you pour liquid. So that means bacteria that can not be cleaned out. I’m really sad because it was so beautiful. But my husband made me toss it. Back to my cheap glass one I’ve had for over five years.

Wonderful Press But the Paint is an Issue
After losing three french presses due to a confluence of a large cat, a small counter, and the fragility of glass decanters something had to change. The first couple times you can blame the cat and it's a funny story you tell your friends. But that third time, you have to keep it to yourself. Otherwise people will think it's your fault. "Time to adapt, big guy." So I adapted and I love this press. It's durable. It's solid. It should last forever. There was no metallic taste, which was a fear. The large cat now eats at the plants in petulant defeat.Now the big downside is the paint. I hand wash everything. I find it peaceful. Or it's that I can't fit a dishwasher in my tiny kitchen. Let's pretend it's the first reason. By about month two of washing once per day the paint on the bottom and around the inside of the handle started to wear away. Once water got under the paint the quickening began. Eventually I could rub it off with my fingernail. Under the watchful eye of a furry sourpuss I decided to make lemonade. I tossed it in hot water, let it soak for a bit, and then stripped the rest of the paint off with a guitar pick. I'm left with the brushed metal version, which is fine, because it matches my kettle. But I also miss the sage green. It was nice. Paint on metal has to be enameled to survive any length of time and this isn't.The only other minor suggestion would be to have a notch or keyhole at the base that you unscrew to change the filter. If it gets screwed in too tight or misthreaded the round cylinder doesn't allow for much of a grip to get it separated.Still, it's a great press as I struggle to build the bottom bun on this compliment sandwich. I'd buy it again, not that I think I'll ever need to, unless the large cat evolves. Time will tell. Take care and remember what our mothers taught us. "If it's lightly painted everything is tainted but with brushed and bronze you do no wrong."

MUY RECOMENDADOOOOOOO
Se nota que el material es de buena calidad. La única razón por la que no le doy 5 estrellas es porque traía unos ligeros rasponcitos por dentro pero puede ser por el mismo filtro. No se notan por fuera, entonces no la regrese, es algo muy banal. Venía bien empacada y el color es muy muy lindo, Es muy guesa también guarda el calor por horas. El filtro como ven se muy resistente. Por el precio, wow, de verdad vale la pena.

Funciona muy bien :)
Tiene capacidad para tres tazas de café, que en ocasiones no es lo ideal para mi, pero en general es muy buena, el café se mantiene caliente bastante tiempo, y es muy fácil de limpiar, el color es bastante lindo ( yo compré la rosa)
