To make it very briefly: the Siebstemplekanne looks good, is practical and has been with us at home, and now on our sailboat a permanent place. Contrary to the criticism of the reviewers I find the Siebstempelfilter very good because he is good at the can wall abdichted and can be also very good clean. So far no drawback has resulted in use. Have also an original Allessi Siebstempelkanne, but we prefer the Siebstemplekanne stainless steel, since it keeps you warm even better coffee.
