Koala Koffee Travel Press / Portable French Press / Cafetiere, Vacuum Insulated 0.45L / 16oz

Absolutely Brilliant, I bought this because it was one of the few products which was made out of glass. There are cheaper options in plastic/metal, but I find they always have a plastic/metallic after taste. I works just like a cafetiere and makes wonderfully strong coffee.I drink my coffee with milk and it is easy to add milk without unscrewing the top by poring it through the hole for drinking.The double walled insulation means that the outside is always cool and no need for additional silicon or cardboard protector.Caution when first using do not overfill with coffee, if you overfill it the plunger will not go down enough to fully open the lid. There is ample room in the bottom for coffee but is worth noting the space before adding the coffee. It makes a really nice strong cup of coffee

Awesome item, arrived quickly and was put to use immediately as I had broken my other one the day before. I like the feel of it and it looks great, holds 2 large mugs of coffee.My only concerns are 1) it is made of glass and I bought it as a travel cup, so not sure how confident I am of carrying it. 2) the plunger and lid cannot be separated, therefore if you like milk and sugar in your coffee, you need to add it first.

Looks nice as I wanted BUT the lid does not get secured when opened. Basically hit your nose when you drink. May be its faulty. But planning to return it.

Bought this as it was larger than my previous mug, the previous one also had issues with coffee bits coming through the mesh.Worked perfectly for around a month although it did leak when laid on its side or even if jostled around too much.However, it began to leak even when I was taking a drink, think the seal failed. This made it basically unusable.Only reason I haven't given 1 star is because even though it broke after a short time, it still cost less than if I had continued paying for coffees at work during the same period

Love the idea and it works wellThe only problem I have is it leaksUnless I tighten is absurdly tight it leak when I pour coffeeIt is that point when I fear that the glass may break and the sometimes it still dribbles down the frontI would never risk drinking from this if I had best gear on as would be afraid to spoil my clothesWould have sent it back but it was recycle day after easter and box went in the binSuch a shame as it looks good and keeps Coffee hot well

The Koala Travel Press is an impressive little caffitiere/ travel mug that does everything it sets out to do.This is my first product of this kind and I decided on the Koala Press after reading a lot of bad reviews for a similar item offered by another brand.The Koala travel press keeps your coffee nice and hot for a long time but the outside doesn’t get hot and so is easy to handle. I take soya milk in my coffee and I was apprehensive about adding milk but it’s actually very simple. Just add the grounds into the bottom, pour on hot water and leave for a few minutes. Then plunge and pour your milk through the drinking hole.It should be noted that the plunger and lid cannot be separated though this doesn’t affect use of the mug.A great product that I will definitely be recommending to my friends and colleagues!

Really happy with this purchase. Made of glass, meaning it doesn't taste tinny or plastic, although I am a little worried about breaking it! Obviously this is no thermos, but keeps coffee hot for up to 40 mins with the lid closed, which is good for the daily commute. Fits with a bit of a squeeze into the cup holder in a BMW, so YMMV here. Large enough for my morning coffee hit, but also sufficient to make two regular sized cups of coffee for me and the missus in the evening. Dishwasher safe!

Great quality product. Press shakes from side to side a little so need to concentrate on plunge that you are pushing down straight. Plus the lip lid doesnt fix in place best. That for me removed 1 star. Otherwise keeps coffee hot for 1-2 hours and looks good.
