Bodum 4 Cups pour over Coffee Maker with Permanent Filter and Cork Band

First, you should know that Bodum is an extremely well-known and quality brand. If you have ever shopped at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City, you are aware of the quality of their items. Bodum makes the "pour over" coffee maker MoMA sells, which is identical to this one except in the detail of this one's having cork where it is held, while MoMA's has a handle. Also, please be aware that the only plastic used in this coffee maker is on the edges of the stainless steel cone, which area is well out of the way of the coffee and of the hot water poured through the cone. Therefore, nothing that the user will ever consume comes in any contact with plastic. Nothing. Therefore, a person is not exposed to microplastics while using this coffee maker because, unless the hot water is poured onto the edge of the cone, nothing is exposed to the small amount of plastic used in the coffee maker. I love this product. Mainly, I love avoiding microplastics, but I also love the coffee this maker provides, and I appreciate the super low cost of the product. It's a winner in every way.
