Pros:
It holds liquid when sitting on tabletop.
Cons:
-The plunger does not work well to keep coffee grounds, or tea from floating up into your drink.
-There is no seal or lock to keep the plunger fully depressed-- liquid might not leak from the drinking spout, but it will spill everywhere out of the plunger's hole.
-Does not keep liquids hot very long.
Don't waste money on Bodum 16-Ounce Travel Coffee Press and Tea Maker, Clear.
Give up bad coffee for good but not for long....
Might look like a good deal but the design is flawed to the initial design concept. The outer portion of the French Press cracked in the first week!
The plastic design is very delicate, I dont know how it would handle the everyday regular wear and tear. I just take it to work and class, and have no clue why it would break on me.
While the advantages of Bodum 16-Ounce Travel Coffee Press and Tea Maker, Clear is clear: looks good and its inexpensive, its flaws is not too noticeable.
The main reason is that you have to finish the coffee in the first 20-30 minutes or it will start becoming giving overtly strong and off smell and taste. This is because of the liquid and the ground coffee intermingle with each other for too long and so it does not ... Read More
Great coffee wherever you go!
I bought this travel French press so I could stop buying bad coffee at work and instead make the delicious, bold coffee that I love.

The only problem is that the suction or the screen is not as good as in my glass French press. I do often end up with some grounds in my mouth. Overall, I am very pleased.
Ehhh...it's okay
The biggest problem I have with Bodum 16-Ounce Travel Coffee Press and Tea Maker, Clear is that the plunger doesn't fit snugly enough to the sides of the cup, which means there's a fair amount of coffee grounds still swirling around. However, the double-walled cup is awesome in keeping the drink hot for quite awhile.
Amazing Press!
If you are the kind of person who likes a strong cup of coffee and who wants to take that amazig coffee everywhere, this is the product for you! I find at my office the coffee to be dull and watered down. I like to bring this from my house, with the grounds in it, and then I add hot water to it, cream, sugar, mix it up, then put the top on (which has the press attached) and voila! There is even a nifty snap-shut little lid over the mouth piece. It might get a few weird looks from on lookers, but it brews an amazing cup of coffee.
