I was honestly surprised by how well made this is. The plastic on the dripper portion feels solid, with thick plastic and minimal flex. The rubber gaskets for stopping leeks are designed with pull tabs so you can remove them for a more thorough cleaning. The dripper has notches to make it sit level inside the mug while brewing with it.The dripper is based on fast flow flat bottomed drippers, though a bit smaller. I was able to use my generic Hario 185 filters I have on hand, though it comes with 10 properly sized mini flat bottom filters. You wont be forced to use the specific filters it comes with, which is a huge plus.The advertised 300 ml capacity is actually the serving size the pourover dripper can make, so you can max it out at 300 ml and still have plenty of room for sugar and creamer, maybe some ice. You could also fill the dripper with ice and screw it back on, while unscrewing the "drip tray" cap to drink from for even more capacity.The ceramic coated mug had very good heat retention, and will survive in a bag pretty well. The rubberized bottom had very good grip on most clean surfaces around my kitchen. When screwed on properly, the dripper/lid did not leak even while leaving it upside down while tea brewed inside it.My one issue is that you have to wash the outside of the dripper before installing it for a pourover if you want it to be sanitary, otherwise anything that gets onto the outer surface can wind up contaminating your drink while brewing. Im very happy with the design otherwise, it makes for a good workplace dripper as long as I have a sink to wash it before use.

I picked this up as a solution for hotel stays, camping, and generally avoiding the sad, burnt hotel lobby coffee that tastes like someone boiled despair. The good news? This TIMEMORE delivers. If you're a pour-over fan and don’t mind making one great cup at a time, this little guy welcome travel companion.The design is sleek, creamy white, and compact. I travel light - no patience for bulky brewing setups—and this fits in my carry-on next to my travel grinder and smug sense of coffee superiority. Like all the TIMEMORE producs I own, it's built well, too. The interior is stainless with a ceramic coating, which means your brew doesn't taste like it passed through a radiator hose.That said, it’s smaller than I expected. Holds about 10 oz max, which is...fine. I adjusted my usual 18:1 ratio (yes, I’m that person) and it still came out smooth and balanced. Would I use it to caffeinate six people around a campfire? Absolutely not. But for a solo cup at a rest stop or hotel, it’s perfect.The dripper is integrated into the lid, which I thought was clever, but it does mean you’re limited to the small filters it comes with. No clue where to get more - I had to Google my way to a vendor that carries them. (TIMEMORE, maybe include a QR code or note in the box?)It cleans up pretty easily, especially if you rinse it right away. The funnel does have a few hard-to-reach corners, so I’d avoid letting it sit too long unless you want to start a tiny science experiment.Really the biggest downside for me is that it doesn't keep coffee hot for long. I’d love a version with better insulation - because if I make good coffee, I’d like to sip it leisurely without it turning into room-temp sadness after 5 minutes.In the end, it's a premium travel brewer for people who care about good coffee wherever they go. TIMEMORE quality shines through, and if they make a slightly larger version with a better lid and a clearer path to filter refills, I’ll be first in line.

This is a nicely designed, portable POUR-OVER coffee maker—that actually produces a pretty good cup of coffee. It doesn’t come close to producing an espresso, though.It does comes with a small quantity of coffee filters, but there’s no indication of what kind they are, or how to order more. I assume they are in a standard size, though.There are only a few factors that you can control in making any pour-over coffee:Of main concern, is how large a grind size you should dial in using the setting on your coffee bean grinder. (Unless, of course, you use PRE-GROUND coffee).The other factors are mainly concerned with the water you use; i.e. How hot is it? How much to use? And, is it purified, or not?You’ll have to play around with all those variables, to find out what procedure makes a good cup of coffee for YOU!The interior of the plastic funnel has lots of nooks and crannies that will get dirty immediately, due to the raised ribs that are designed to help the filtered coffee flow into the mug. Although it’s easy enough to rinse out the funnel (if you clean it out immediately), eventually you might need to use a bit of elbow grease to thoroughly brush & wash out those coffee stains. And, since the plastic parts are transparent, they will clearly show any stray coffee grounds or dried coffee spots that you’ve left unwashed because you wanted to strike camp quickly….(Perhaps they could make a transparent, but TINTED version—or, even a model with a totally OPAQUE funnel—to help avoid seeing too much of that buildup of gunk inside.)A nice item for camping or kitchen, though; and it makes a great gift for coffee lovers.
