My wife and I recently had our second child and as children increase sleep decreases. So I decided it was time to embark on the bitter ocean of coffee drinking. This being a press and mug all in one makes it the perfect vessel to set sail with. It is very convenient and easy to use. The handle is comfortable, the filter works well and the capacity is good. After nights filled with crying, dirty diapers and throw up the bottom compartment for extra grounds is almost a necessity. Highly recommend.
