I brought this for my son for Christmas.  He took me to the Parkers in Palm Spring for a Thanks Givings getaway. Will this was my first time. He was raving about this french press stainless steel coffee pot and how he had been looking for one. After see it, I told him it was an old 1960 percolator. LOL. He try several different glass ones and all of them break at some point. But, he loves this one. The word he used was "Great".  He was really impress about the double walls. I scored a 100 cool mom points with this one.
