AGOGO Pour Over Coffee Maker Glass - 6/8/10 Cup Barista Kit with 304 Stainless Filter for Home, Office, Camping, Cafes - Easy Clean Coffee Dripper Set (Rag&Brush Included) (10 Cup/34 oz-Slim Shape)

Someone is going to have to explain to me exactly how a Chemex can be worth twice the price. Admittedly, a tiny piece of me still wants a Chemex for reasons borne of pure vanity, but this carafe and it's filter cone are both of great quality. A lot of imitations on the market are downright ugly in my opinion, but this one has the sleek, sexy hourglass shape. To be completely honest, I probably would have spent the extra money for Chemex if it weren't for that. Afterall, what more is this than a glass jar, of not an aesthetic table piece? It sets the mood. The filter cone has a very fine mesh screen on the inside. I've been known to grind a little too fine, and no grit comes through whatsoever. Also, coffee granules never get stuck in the filter. Not a single one. I simply dump and rinse when I'm done with it.I was concerned about the squared pour spout, but my fears were unfounded. It actually makes for a nice-and-easy pour, not too fast so you don't accidentally blast your wife's favorite robe with piping hot liquid in a morning stupor. I do have one small critique; the wooden collar feels... dry, if that makes sense. I think they just splashed it with such a thick heavy coat of polyurethane, that it makes it feel almost brittle like it's going to chip possibly. I'm afraid to wash it. Maybe it's just cheap wood or something, I dunno I can't really put my finger on it, but if it does fall apart, I'll just get like a nice looking piece of leather or something to wrap around it. I think customizing it that way could actually be a cool personal touch. Come to think of it, I might actually do that!

It might be hard to tell from the images, but the filter is really good. In addition to the micro-pore holes you can see on the outside of the filter, the inside is lined with a very fine screen filter. By fine, I mean, it looks more like a fabric and less like a metal screen, having a silky feel to it. I've been using filters, because I have them and they make clean up easier, but you really don't need one.The wooden hand grip is nice, and the leather strap is good quality. It is possible to put your hand against the glass while picking it up to pour though, so that aspect could be better.The pour spout works really well. Doesn't seem like it should, but it does. It may be because a flat edge is easier to make properly than the more curved triangularly shaped ones. Either way, it pours very well.

I was a little skeptical about pour over coffee. Why do I need to pour it myself when my Mr. Coffee will do that all for me?!? But this is some of the best coffee I have ever had! The filter that is included I think might be part of what makes the coffee so smooth. It’s a 2 layer metal reusable filter. I was really just purchasing this because I thought it was pretty and would look nice on the counter top, but now it’s my fav way to make my coffee! It doesn’t hold heat well, but I only make a cup or 2 at a time, so that’s fine with me.

Doesn’t make as much coffee as it says it does, but I love the quality of this product! It also brews coffee very fast. Super easy to clean and light weight!

Only problem I had is that the leather tie broke immediately

It makes amazing coffee.

Very good for the price

My husband I can now make two full yetis of coffee without fighting over who gets more. It’s a win-win.

Holds a ton of coffee, very nice style and well made. I'd buy this again

Makes a tasty cup of coffee. Arrived in good condition. Looks nice too

I’ve used this almost every day. I like the metal filter, it cleans nice and reduces the waste of paper filters.

My husband uses it every day, loves it. Easy to clean. Nice design.

The quality of this is great and pours well into mugs, makes more than enough for my husband and I
