If you appreciate a simple, smooth, and flavorful cup of coffee in the morning, a French press is the way to go. While it won't brew your morning cup quite as fast as a pod machine, it will save you money and counter space while giving you a consistently perfect cup of coffee every time. Plus, you can save even more by getting the Bodum Caffettiera French Press, from an editor-favorite brand, which is 45% off now at Amazon.
The Bodum Caffettiera is as timeless as French presses get. It's lightweight, unfussy, and operates smoothly at an affordable price.

Read our full Bodum Chambord French Press review to learn more about how to use a French press.
The Bodum Caffettiera French Press has everything we love about the Chambord. Its classic, timeless design brews 34 ounces of coffee at a time, so it's perfect whether you're brewing for yourself or a few people. The carafe is made with non-stain, heat-resistant glass that allows you to monitor the brewing process, while the stainless steel frame and plastic lid protect the carafe and make handling easy. Like any French press, simply add ground coffee beans and hot water to the carafe, wait a few minutes for the coffee to steep, and then slowly push down the plunger to separate the coffee grounds for the perfect smooth cup.
Amazon shoppers are also big fans of Bodum French presses. "We've had Bodum double-walled glass mugs for coffee and tea for years, and I've tried their smaller French press before but wanted something bigger for guests…This fits the bill perfectly," said one reviewer. "Bodum is the best French press out there, and my coffee comes out perfect every time. No course grinds, minimal, if any, sediment, and the most flavorful cup of coffee I've ever had with these beans."
"I've been to a number of restaurants that serve French press coffee, and I very much enjoy it…While I have an espresso machine at home, I could see this being perfect for taking trips away from home and still having my beloved coffee," said another reviewer. "It's really easy to use: fill it with grounds, fill it with warm water, and put the lid on…The coffee came out great and plenty strong."
