The Fellow Clara French press is $100 – is it really worth that much?

A woman pressing down on a Fellow Clara French press next to a bagel.

I've loved  a lot of French presses in my time. They're a wonderful way to slow brew your coffee, especially on a Sunday, but the classic design has plenty of flaws: the carafe is (very delicate) glass, they're not always well insulated, you can only pour when the spout is in a very specific position, and they can be tricky to clean. 

This sounds like a lot of downsides, but if anyone could solve them, it would be Fellow. The company splashed onto the coffee market with the best coffee grinder you can buy, one of the best pour-over coffee makers in the world, and even make Oprah's favorite gooseneck kettle. I was excited to try their French press and see if lived up to the hype, and I found that they make one of the best French presses around.
