"Keeps your coffee warm for longer" is shit. When you brew coffee (or whatever, tea, tisane, etc.) with a french press, once it's ready, you decant it ASAP, or it continues to brew, and will over-extract, i.e. become bitter.
"Outside stays cool" Well you're meant to hold it by the handle anyway.
Don't brew coffee with the caffetiere if you don't like that flavour in particular, get a Woodneck or an Aeropress for a similar price. The Aeropress brews superb coffee in no time. Woodneck is a cloth filter brewing method and produces nice coffee + no paper filter needed. Pourover brewers like the V60 or the Melitta Cone are available in the price range of $2-$30 (plastics cost the lowest, metals the most, glass in between). If you can afford it a Syphon brewer produces the best filter coffee IMO. Any of these produce better coffee than a caffetiere, whose product is usually too bitter and too strong in body.
If you break a caffetiere in any other way than dropping it on the ground, you're using it wrong. Plunge gently, take your time.
For tea and tisane I like these kind-a guys better. The plunge extracts bitters from all sorts of stuff, it's no good IMO.

At 700 mL (23.7 oz) they seem a bit small compared to the other 40 oz pots I've been looking at. Thanks for the recommendation, though!
