5.0 out of 5 stars Very Happily Surprised, October 23, 2006

I have spent hundreds of dollars on coffee makers and have been very snobbish in thinking I could not get an American made one because it wouldn't get the water hot enough. I also love the coffee from a French press. Because I wanted to have the automatic capabilities with the French press, my options were few with the only other one available getting rather poor reviews. Reluctantly (and because I had a $100 gift certificate), I tried the West Bend for $39.99. IT IS FABULOUS. The water is VERY hot and so it makes a fabulous cup of coffee.

Product works as advertised. I have tried other electric french presses with poor long term results. This one is dishwasher safe and works great. Best of all, it makes great coffee. The only negative is it's 4 cup capacity. Four cups works for me, but may be small fo rsome families.

I was looking for a self-contained coffee press where I did not need an outside way to boil the water. This coffee press fit exactly what I was looking for. Both my wife and I enjoy a good cup of coffee, and this unit does fit the bill. I would recommend this to anyone who needs or are looking for these requirements. The only drawback I noticed with this unit is that I wish the size would be for eight cups instead of four as it makes a great cup of coffee.
