Why we love it
The Chambord is the French press — the one that's been on kitchen counters since the 1950s, and for good reason. The borosilicate glass carafe lets you watch the brew develop, the chrome-plated steel frame is genuinely elegant, and the three-part stainless steel plunger does its job without fuss. It's not trying to reinvent anything. It just makes excellent coffee, every single time, for about the price of two bags of beans. If you're buying your first French press, this is the one.
Pros
- Timeless design that looks great on any counter
- Borosilicate glass won't cloud or retain flavors
- Made in Portugal with solid build quality
- Replacement glass carafes widely available
- Dishwasher safe (beaker, filter, plunger)
Cons
- Glass carafe will break if dropped
- Single mesh filter lets some sediment through
- No insulation — coffee cools within 20–25 minutes
- Chrome frame requires hand washing
