Bodum Brazil French press – could a $30 French press really be among the best?

Bodum Brazil French Press on a table with a cup of coffee beside it .

There's a lot of beauty to Bodum's Brazil French press. Even though it was designed in the 80s, it has a distinctly squat, modern aesthetic. It's incredibly popular online and has been for nearly fifty years. So, what's their secret?

Whilst some of the best French presses are crafted from double-walled, premium-grade stainless steel, Bodum's opted for a different route. It's easy to be a little cynical about this – the borosilicate glass carafe and BPA-free plastic frame is cheaper to produce – but packed with useful features, but it's incredible helpful to be able to see your coffee as it brews.
