BonJour Hugo 8-Cup Unbreakable French Press, Black
Amazon.com Review
A virtually unbreakable polycarbonate carafe makes this coffee press sturdy enough for picnics or camping. To use a French press, grounds are placed in the bottom of the (preheated with hot water, if possible) carafe, then near-boiling water added. The lid with its stainless-steel rod and filter is pushed down after a few minutes of steeping, and the coffee is ready to pour. Many coffee aficionados swear by the French press method. The Hugo features a second mesh screen in the lid that removes even more of the coffee grounds sediment typically left behind by most coffee presses. In addition to the polycarbonate carafe, the Hugo features a rubberized comfort-grip handle and plastic frame, which makes it possible for coffee (or tea) to be reheated in a microwave when the lid and stainless-steel fixtures are removed. The Hugo eight-cup carafe makes about 32 ounces of coffee, which is more like four cups for most coffee drinkers. An individual-sized 12-ounce model is also available, and both come in black, white, blue, or green. –Ann Bieri

so fun to have good coffee!
I’m glad I opted for the 8 cup – it’s certainly not a big unit. Just enough for one or two people. I suggest a good strong roast to get the full benefit of this brewing style…

poor design, not worth the money
I have owned this for a week, and sure enough, the plunger broke. It wouldn’t screw into the screen, like it was stripped.

Polycarbonate leaches BPA, and you want to brew in it?
Much as I like the idea of unbreakable, it was the polycarbonate being used to make baby bottles that was responsible for leaching BPA, and that was even in unheated liquids.

Avoid BonJour
Poor quality coffee result and cheaply made. Get what you pay for. Avoid this product.

DO NOT BUY THIS JUNK!
I bought this coffee press. I loved it for the first ten uses. Then, the filter plunger frame broke and crumbled apart!

Busted!
I bought it, even after reading all the comments about broken plastic filter basket. It worked 10 times and – yup. The plastic basket broke. BonJour’s web site is useless.

Bobjour Hugo coffee press, safety first
This is the stablest, safest coffee press I’ve owned. Rather than metal feet, the detachable foot resists sliding.

Great!
I know there are some purists who quibble with the design of this. In a perfect world, this may not be the best press for the money.
