Bodum 15oz Double Wall Travel Press French Press Mug, Vacuum Seal, BPA-Free Plastic, Black w/Silicone Sleeve

This is my second Bodum travel press. I used one for 6 years 5 days a week before replacing it. So easy to make fresh coffee at my desk at work. It’s easy to use, well made, and keeps the fresh brewed coffee warm for over an hour.

I have always loved Bodum products. I have the Bodum Chambord French Press Coffee Maker, and I love it so much that I decided to give the Bodum15oz Double Wall Travel Press French Press Mug a try. I love it as well! I used it during those days when the coffee maker turned off, but I still want a cup of coffee to go with my extra slice of carrot cake or key lime pie.I am still working on the “just the right” ratios of coffee and water, but I have not made a bad cup yet. But this is part of the fun of making coffee in a variety of ways.The Bodum travel press has the quality and refinement that I was expecting. I usually make my coffee in the French press and then pour it into a mug. I just prefer to manage a mug while working at my desk. My only concern is that I am finding it a bit difficult to clean. The spent grounds do not want to leave the warm confines at the bottom of the coffee maker without extreme actions on my part.The important thing is that the coffee made by this coffee maker is great! I do not think that I would apply the saying, “Good to the last drop,” to the resulting coffee. There appears to be a collection of sediments and a minute set of grounds that managed to slip through the silicone lined plugger. I do not view these collections of spent coffee to be unseemly, but it is not perfect in this way. Besides, this is the WAY of pressed coffee. Additionally, this is a small tradeoff for a robust and flavorful cup of coffee.I work from home (I spent eons commuting in my earlier life) so I am not transporting the Bodum 15-ounce coffee maker with me in my car, or in a train, or in a boat, or on a plane so I cannot say that I like Bodum French press coffee everywhere.The Bodum travel press makes the right amount of coffee for one person. (At least this is what I tell my wife.) The press was well conceptualized, and well executed. It does what the Bodum folks designed it to do – to make a bold, full-bodied coffee with strong flavors and aromas.Bravo to the folks at Bodum.

This is a double walled travel press. I'm not sure I've ever seen anything like this before. It's like a travel coffee cup, but with a French press built in. It's a good product tailored to a specific lifestyle. It makes sense for time crunches, single coffee brews, and commutes. It's a good product for a coffee lover. I like that it fits in my cup holder. I am the only coffee drinker in my household, so this product allows me to bring a travel French press with me on the way to work.

I like the design because I like french press travel mug it's normally very functional but I've found these to be awfully fragile too; one fall and the inner cup detaches from the outer cup or it cracks. This has happened to 3 of the units that I have had. It's unfortunate because it's otherwise a very nice design; I would have thought the lexan/polycarbonate material would be more tough but it is very brittle where joined at corners.

I’m not sure why there are so many great reviews. The plunger does not go down far enough. It is too short and only reaches just past the halfway point. It doesn’t compress the coffee grounds and the coffee is weak and watery.

Perfect to make a fresh french press coffee at work. The only downside is that the plastic does not hold heat long enough. You will have to transfer it to an insulated mug if you want to keep it hot fot a longer period of time. Other than that, if you drink it in a short period the sip lid is very good.

It's easy to clean, durable, and produces a delicious cup of coffee. I've even used it to make cold brew, the results were fantastic.A Few Minor NotesWhile the Travel Press is generally excellent, there are a couple of minor drawbacks.
