Choosing a French press for pour-over & manual brewing comes down to a practical split: do you want to watch the brew through glass, or prefer an insulated stainless-steel press? Both options are listed at 34 oz / 1000 mL, so capacity is not the deciding factor. The real choice is between the glass press's transparent carafe and included coffee filters versus BREVIK's double-wall construction and reusable setup.
Quick verdict
Choose the 34oz Glass French Press Coffee Tea Maker Stainless Steel Filter when a transparent carafe and the lower listed price matter most. Choose the BREVIK 34oz Insulated Stainless Steel French Press Coffee Maker when its listed three-minute brewing time better suits your routine. The two presses are separated by USD 48.36 in listed price, so the construction and brewing preference should justify that difference for your kitchen.

Where each French press wins
The glass French press wins for a visible brewing process and included coffee filters. Its transparent borosilicate glass carafe is designed to let you watch the coffee as it brews, which suits someone who likes that hands-on part of manual preparation. The protective stainless-steel frame and lid add a distinct look around the glass carafe.
The BREVIK press wins for a reusable, paper-free approach. Its description calls out reusable brewing without paper filters or disposable pods. That makes it the more direct fit for a shopper whose preferred setup is centered on the press itself rather than included coffee filters.
Product notes
34oz Glass French Press Coffee Tea Maker Stainless Steel Filter
This is the better match for someone who enjoys seeing the brew develop inside a clear carafe. The borosilicate glass design and transparent body make the preparation process part of the experience, while the stainless-steel frame and lid provide a structured exterior around the glass. It is also described for coffee and tea, which can be appealing for a kitchen that makes more than one hot beverage. The included coffee filters are a concrete reason to choose this press if you want those components with the brewer. Its main trade-off is construction preference: shoppers specifically seeking a double-wall stainless-steel body should look to the BREVIK model instead.
BREVIK 34oz Insulated Stainless Steel French Press Coffee Maker GIFT 1000ml
Pick the BREVIK press when double-wall stainless-steel construction is the key feature you want in a manual brewer. The insulated body is described as helping retain heat during brewing, and its black exterior, matte finish, and comfortable handle give it a different presentation from the glass-carafe alternative. The reusable design is especially relevant if disposable pods and paper filters are not part of your preferred routine. A meaningful limitation in this head-to-head is capacity: BREVIK is listed at 34 oz / 1000 mL, the same stated amount as the glass press. Choose it for the construction and reusable format, not for a stated capacity advantage.
Final choice by use case
Go with the 34oz Glass French Press Coffee Tea Maker Stainless Steel Filter for a visible glass-carafe brewing experience and included coffee filters. Choose the BREVIK 34oz Insulated Stainless Steel French Press Coffee Maker if a reusable, paper-free setup is your priority. Since both list the same capacity, this decision is best made on brewing style and body construction rather than batch size.
