Martha Stewart Has Recommended This French Press ‘For Years’

I’m a night owl, so brewing a cup of coffee is one of the first things I do every morning. While I love my fancy espresso machine with all the bells and whistles, it can be complicated to operate (especially when I’m still half asleep). To simplify my morning routine, I decided to buy a French press. According to The Kitchn, Martha Stewart once said on an episode of The Martha Stewart Show that she’s been using a glass Bodum French press “for years.” “I think it really makes a nice cup of coffee,” she said. 

If Martha loved it, I knew I had to give it a try. Get the Bodum Chambord French press for less than $40 at Amazon — it’s already turning me into a morning person.

Bodum Chambord French Press Coffee Maker

This glass French press brews up to 34 ounces of coffee and is so easy to use. Simply add your coffee grounds and boiling water, wait four minutes, and press down the plunger. A mesh filter strains out coffee grounds, while a stainless steel plate separates them from the water to prevent overbrewed or burnt-tasting coffee. The filter and glass beaker are dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning. 

Don’t just take Martha’s word for it. After extensive testing, the Bodum Chambord came out as our editors’ favorite French press overall. It consistently brewed smooth, well-balanced coffee with no sediment. We loved its classic French design, which adds elegance to any kitchen counter. (We’d expect nothing less from Martha Stewart.)

The Bodum Chambord brews batches in under five minutes, and I hardly need to lift a finger. I can get dressed, make breakfast, or wash my face while the coffee steeps. In other words, my coffee is ready as soon as I am.

Shoppers love it, too. The French press has over 22,000 five-star ratings on Amazon, and more than 2,000 shoppers purchased one in the past month. “I forgot what it's like to not have grounds in my coffee,” said one shopper who finally switched back to the Bodum. “I have never tasted home-brewed coffee that tasted this good,” claimed a second reviewer.

For less than $40, you can join the thousands of shoppers who adore this French press when you shop today.
