This is my third french press. The other two were bodum presses with a glass carafe. The glass broke both times, so I decided to invest a bit more money, hoping to get one that will last me for awhile. I have only had this press for a little over a week, but am very impressed with its performance thus far. It has quite a bit of weight to it on its own. The filter, lid and handle are very sturdy. The carafe is insulated, so the liquid seems to stay nice and hot. I took the advice of another reviewer, and made sure to pour the water just before it hits the spout to ensure that no grounds can make it into my mug. It pours like a dream. 

Pros: Keeps coffee hot. Pours well. Made of very high-quality construction. Simply awesome.
Cons: None
