Score 9.2 / 10
Average of substance, design, and value.
The lever latch avoids twisting hot chambers, while the broad magnetic base and formed spout improve stability and pouring. Official funnels, filters and gaskets partly justify its steep premium.
$173 typical
This is the one premium price accepted because it funds a non-screw lever closure, widened magnetic base, anti-drip spout, reducer filter and official funnel/filter/gasket spares—not decoration alone.
Durable, corrosion-resistant vessel.
Induction capability.
Avoids hot screw-thread handling.
Supports clean pouring.

The lever opens one-handed, large handle stays cool and the wide base is stable; the narrow upper chamber is harder to read during brew.
DESIGN RECOGNITION
Museum of Modern Art · 1979
Officially listed replaceable filters, reducers, funnels and gaskets make the complex latch design unusually supportable; verify 90-mm hob detection.
