Others say...
"It works and looks nice to boot." It works pretty well. The included filter lets finer grounds through, so you either have to use a rougher grind or paper filter. It's surprisingly light and easy to clean. I've cleaned it in a dishwasher about a dozen times already and it seems to be perfectly okay with that. It's faster, cheaper and cleaner than a coffee machine and the results are better too. The only complaint I have is that it's a little hard to pour from, at least when you've just woken up and haven't had your coffee yet. "maybe a good product" I order it because it's charming outlook. But, I didn't get a chance to use it because its broken when it arrived. "Design & Function Meet" Not only is this coffee maker a pleasure to look at, it makes a fine cup of joseph to boot. Not quite as good as a french press, but miles better than a drip coffee maker, the brew comes out full flavored and aromatic. By having direct control over the temperature of the water one can tweak the process in ways that are impossible with other coffee makers. If you want to get away from a drip brewer and don't care for the grittiness that can come with pressed coffee, this is a great option. "Extremely Delicate" Its a beautiful product but the first time I put it in the dishwasher it shattered. There were no instructions to the contrary and I had written to the manufacturer asking if it was dishwasher safe but received no answer to my inquiry. Presently I am just using a typical insulated carafe and #4 paper filter and funnel to brew my coffee. It works fine but would be nice to be able to see how much water is filling the carafe instead of having to lift the funnel. "thumbs up (lot's of them)" I like this on many levels. I, too, received a broken one. Amazon replaced it (no charge) the same day! WOW!! I believe Amazon sent it (the first one) BROKEN and probably bought it BROKEN, too. Both were packed well. It looks good. I have used this everyday for about 8 weeks and it is doing just fine. I've never preheated the coffee pot, either. I don't get that. In fact, I don't get the "double pot" either. For insulation? Huh. Furthermore, the gold filter doesn't get enough love. It is good and should last. The funnel thing (the filter sits in) is plastic. My way of making a great cup of coffee, you ask? Grind your favorite beans while you are boiling 30 oz of water in a pot. Pour the coffee INTO the water and stir for 10 - 15 seconds. Then pour the pot of coffee into your bodum coffee maker (or any other make) thru the gold filter. If you want it real clear you will need a paper filter (Chemex is best). This is essentially the French press method but easier to clean. This was a good choice for me and Amazon deserves credit for standing up.

What our customer's say! "An intreaguing design with obvious flaws.", Upon purchasing my new Bodum double walled drip coffee maker, I was thoroughly impressed with its ability to make coffee, keep it warm, and interest guests. After a couple weeks of careful use, I went about my daily routine. After warming up the reservoir, I poured my coffee into the warmed reservoir (via instructions as I had every time). As I was sitting at my computer, about 10 minutes after the coffee had been prepared, I was startled by a loud "pop" and spent the next 10 minutes picking up glass, not drinking coffee. Being that I got the item for around $20, I am not too upset, though I would be thoroughly upset had I paid retail. I would not purchase this item again. Total p.o.s. in my opinion. "Really good coffee", I really like my new coffee pot it make really tasty coffee. My only gripe is the coffee gets cold fairly quickly unless you move it to a thermal carafe. Still better than burnt coffe anyday. "Would have been a nice item....", I would like to review the item itself but after receiving 3 broken Bistro's Amazon e-mailed me that "the problem is more widespread than they thought" I am a big fan of Bodum and really wanted this coffee maker but not now that I know how fragile they are. Maybe Bodum will make a newer and thicker version later on. Then I will review the product. Looks and design an A+ Quality and durability well you know the rest. Kudo's to those of you that got one in one piece! "Fragile Funnel", My Bodum arrived intact despite Amazon's woeful packing. Everything came through the dishwasher intact. I was able to brew 3 times until a slight tap shattered the funnel. The coffee I was able to brew was weak- indeed as one person has pointed out, the funnel does not hold the water in the grounds long enough to properly brew. So now, for $20, I have a nice decanter. I can use it to pour coffee from a french press pot and reduce the sediment a bit. If I'd paid more, this would be going right back to Amazon. Such a disappointment from an otherwise great company- Bodum. "shipping problem", I never got to try this product because during shipping the flask was broken, twice. Bistro Double-Wall 30-Ounce Pour-Over Drip Coffee Maker with Gold Filter 
Read this reviews before You buy... "Shattered dreams.....", I was really looking forward to trying this set up for making coffee. I have a Chemex which uses paper filters so I like the idea of the gold filter. I also think the idea of having the double wall construction is a great for keeping the coffee warm. Alas, I have to give it a one star because it arrived with the inside chamber completely shattered! But I give Amazon 5 stars for ease of returning the item and refunding the price. If the fragility cam be addressed then I see this as an ideal coffee setup. "Do Not Buy Unless You Like to Break Things", Luckily my Bistro arrived intact, we admired its beauty, but agreed on it's fragileness. As soon as I saw the upper paper thin glass funnel, I told my husband I would break it the first time I used it. The writing was on the wall from that moment. For the first week we handled it with utmost care, we babied it, we nurtured it, we handwashed it. Oh, how I scolded my husband when he put it in our stainless dish rack to dry. "Are you crazy?" I asked him. If a teacup fell on it, it would break. Then on the seventh day in the slightest of rush, I tapped it on a bowl in the sink while hand washing it, and it shattered. Although I knew it was meant to be, I did not expect the day to come so soon. But, I had an idea...Bodum must have known about this fragility... this weakness in their product. I knew I couldn't be alone with my problem. I went to the website searching for a replacement glass funnel. I phoned. I emailed. I was informed.... that.... BODUM. DOES. NOT. MAKE. A. REPLACEMENT. FUNNEL. I was stunned and depressed. Money thrown to the wind... I decided to make a terrarium out of the carafe. P.S. Could the woman with 2 funnels and 2 broken carafes please contact me? Do not waste your money here. "Guess I was one of the lucky ones ..", not only did I get mine for $19.99 but I've had it for over a month with no problems at all - I love it. It makes an awesome "pot" of coffee and looks cool too. I prefer to use a relatively fine grind and while I can deal with the bit of sludge in the bottom of the cup, I'd prefer not. Just bought some #4 unbleached paper filters and problem solved - but make sure you put the paper filter inside the gold filter when you do it. My first attempt without the gold filter in place blew the paper filter right out the bottom into the carafe. The "double" filter also slows down the drip brew time a bit which is a good thing - more flavor. "Another pair of broken units", Two more broken ones sent my way - first from my original order, second as the replacement. Carafe appears to be extremely fragile. "If you can get it in one piece, great coffee maker.", Seems that people get broken ones. Mine was shipped in same box as 12 lbs of rice, and not very well cushioned, so I opened the box expecting shards. But it seemed well cushioned within the Bodum box, and was in one piece. Have used it everyday for a month, and love how it looks and how it holds the coffee hot for an hour or two (if you prewarm it with hot water out of tap). The silicone bottom cushion and grip at top are nice touches. As a person who bothers to home roast and grind the beans by hand, I have to say that the filter won't hold the water long enough to get a good brew. I put the grinds into 205 degree filtered water in a Bodum stainless steel double-walled pitcher for 4 minutes, stirring a few times, and then pour into this Bistro coffee maker. That's now my favorite way to brew coffee, and I have tried many. Two last notes, I got it from Amazon at a 4th of the listed retail price. I guess it was some kind of sale. And it goes nicely with the Bodum double wall glasses, which I 've used every day for about a year. |
