So while they are at the same temperature they will be tight, they may become loose when the glass and holder are at different temperatures when washing. I have taken the screen off many times for cleaning with absolutely no problem.
I have read previous reviews with regard to the weakness of the plunger attachment. I have just received my press.
It seems to be of very high quality and strong. This one is made of all stainless steel parts.
No plastic. One caution: The glass beaker and the plastic holder expand at different rates.
Do not let this catch you by surprise as the glass may fall out while holding it upside down.
This is a great product. Elegant to look at and it makes a great cup of coffee. Very easy to use. Would recommend to other java junkies.
With a french press, cleanup is much easier, and it's also easier to make the right amount of coffee. This was my first french press -- got it as part of a 4-for-3 deal on Amazon. It's so easy to use, and I agree that it's actually a lot less work than using a traditional drip coffee machine. Just boil some water, add the coffee, stir and wait, press, and voila. I'm no coffee expert but even I can tell that there are more yummy flavors in the coffee when I use the french press method.Great practical purchase.
This "thing", in so far as I am concerned, is junk, well maybe one step up from hobo coffee makin', you know boil your coffee and water, let the grounds settle and the have a swig. out of me. Actually, I had rather make it hobo style than go through the ritual this thing requires. I have reservations about all those five stars that are listed and that fooled the. Nothing good to say about it. RGB
I enjoy my French press, and anticipate more and more uses for it, as my variety of tastes in coffees is still unfolding. I'm still uncertain, however, of its full value in my enjoyment of fine coffees.
