Have been using this for a few days and really like the quality of the coffee it brews. Have to use a little bit of a coarser grind. Filter is easy to clean and brewing takes only a few minutes. A few things bothered me a bit. 1) as with many reviews the lid is a little chintzy. It seems like it will last, but also like it could fall our with a full drink knocked over. 2) there is a sharp part on the lip of my drink container. It doesn't seem to be a hazard for a cut, but it maybe where the can is sealed and lead to a problem with the vacuum. 3) there is some of the orange coating on the inside of the glass, i am sure its just sprayover, but you would think at this price point they would not have that. Honestly if you have a good thermos just buy a pourover screen.
Edited: Coffee Gator reached out to correct any problems that I was having with the product, so A+ customer service. I do use this product most days and the cup and screen are holding up well. While my above concerns are still valid, maybe I just got a strange cup. as I said I use this every day, while working, and it has been brewing good coffee.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Good cup, but with issues
