I bought this 1 month ago & have been drinking cold brew coffee every morning! I've owned a Toddy & have used the OXO cold brew for a demo at the store. The Kitchen Aid has no plastic parts.(Toddy & OXO have plastic) Stainless & thick glass. Very solid construction.  The coffee is super smooth & I just use the Joe's medium roast from Trader Joe's. We used the OXO one with Illy beans at the store & the coffee was awful. Good filtered water is important when you make coffee. Highly recommended for summer!
