With one tweak to lid, this bomb proof press could last a lifetime

"The tough and sturdy details are impressive. The press housing slides effortlessly. The screw on top approach can present problems in the cold, as threads will freeze. It also take a fair amount of muscle to tighten and loosen, which will be less attractive for older customers. Moving to a lever style approach for the lid, where the manual flick up or down opens and closes the seal would be better."

Fifth purcase

"My fifth BaseCamp press in 10 years including two for me (48 and 32 oz versions) and now 3 of my 6 kids. I still use my original 48 oz press daily except when it's just my wife and I drinking coffee that day although I've had to replace the lid/press assembly twice due to failure of the small cap the flips to pour. I really like the new design of the spout as it almost never drips (the older spout design on my original (and bothe replacement lids) drips enough that I always keep a dish rag handy. I've never used a better French press than the basecamp. I don't go a day without one at home or away unless I'm backpacking more than 3 nights."

Disappointed

"I have used your French presses for years and wanted to replace, but you no longer make the stainless so I ordered this one. Although very nice to look at it is VERY heavy for a senior and very hard to open and I never could figure out the pour spout so sadly, I returned it. I mailed the return yesterday and you should receive it soon. Thank you for trying."

Pretty Good

"I initially purchased this french press due to it's large size, however I do love the fact that it is insulated and can double as a carafe. We use this every day. I will say that the orange coating has begun peeling off. (it's about 3 or 4 years old at this point) and I do wish there was a way to separate the metal tab part from the filter part for cleaning. Overall it's a great press and I'd absolutely get another although I do wish they offered an uncoated option and created a way to clean the filter more easily."

Easy, convenient and keeps coffee hot!

"We love our BaseCamp French Press! It's perfect for our travels and keeps coffee hot without overbrewing it. Pro tip: vent the top to push it down slowly. Lol, experience is the best teacher!"

Perfect for camping and daily use

"I love this french press. It is perfect for camping. And it works so well that I use every day before work. We have taken camping twice and it is easy to use, easy to clean and makes great coffee!"
