As the title said, I’m looking for a stainless steel french press. So far the only producer that actually makes them in Europe seems to be Stelton (Denmark). Bodum looked good, but they do have a factory in China and don’t clearly disclose in the webshop where the specific product is made. Additionally Amazon lists the Bodum Columbia as “Made in China”. Scanpan is another European brand, but the TOGO line is made in China unfortunately.
So I’d be happy to get any pointers for brands to look at.
Edit: The options so far are
- Stelton EM77, stainless steel cylinder, 80€, made in Denmark
- Bodum Douro, stainless steel cylinder, 170€, made in Portugal
All other options (WMF, other Bodum models, Bialetti, Paderno) seem to be produced in China or the US.
I didn’t expect it to be this difficult to find viable options.
According to a chat with some employee on the brands website this press is being made in France. I explicitly asked for a datasheet, but they couldn’t provide one.
Galaxus lists it as made in China. I’ve also heard complaints before about how easily the glass cylinder breaks

Does sound like California.
