Malin and her colleagues dug deep into coffee and tea cultures to find out what tools people feel they can’t live without. They talked to specialists and investigated living, eating and drinking habits. “We wanted to develop items that make a difference, so we’ve focused on a few, but carefully selected products,” she states. The team cooperated with IKEA Test Lab in Älmhult, Sweden. It’s an IKEA version of a James Bond lab where prototypes are inspected and evaluated. “A couple of the things we checked were that the thermoses can keep fluids really warm for a long time. And that the glass mugs and glass pots are durable and comfortable, even though they look and feel light and airy,” says Malin.

Buyer Beware!BonnieThis looks like a great product but be aware that it comes covered in black grease on it and in the rounded edges along with metal shavings!!! After washing it 4 times with TONS of soap, a scrub brush and even soaking it in vinegar water black grease still can be wiped from around the curled edge along with more metal shavings! Whatever the grease is stained my gloves too. Very disappointed with this purchase. I thought IKEA would have better kitchen products then this. Definitely not safe to make coffee with!
Poor weld qualtyAThe funnel spout in the base and the solid bottom of the filter both came apart. Poor quality in welds. Also, is you don't like muddy coffee, use an additional paper filter. Otherwise, it worked well.
Easy coffee solutionAnnI bought this for a quick and easy solution for a single cup of coffee. Sure, I have a regular coffee maker and a single pod maker that takes up significant counter space, but I wanted something easy that I could use any kind of ground coffee. I love its easy clean-up. I choose to put a coffee filter in for the easiest clean-up, but the metal cone filter keeps grounds from entering your cup. I use it daily!
Very useful simple toolTodd PWe used this for making or straining larger amounts of coffee, teas, soups. It has become a regular use tool in the kitchen. For coffee, using medium to course works best.
Exactly what I was looking for!FrancescaI'd been looking for a single-layer mesh pour-over filter and didn't want to settle for a fake-brand-name from the big online retailer that starts with an "A".
I've used a double-layer cone before and no mater what you do, grounds will accumulate inside the two layers over time. I've used this one daily for months and it performs as expected. The solid outer cone is a nice feature that I haven't seen with other mesh cones and I actually like this setup better.
The funnel itself is excellent. I had no idea what a difference a properly-shaped funnel would make. It's less likely to overflow and spill when working with large amounts of liquid (I fill up gallon jugs with water).
I liked this filter so much I got a second one! IKEA really knocked it out of the park with this design. I am happy with my paper-free and plastic-free coffee setup. Thanks IKEA!
Love This SOO Much!!!MargaretThis metal filter really makes a difference in how smooth our coffee taste. My family loves to use this to make their cup of joe. No paper filter needed and coffee is more tastier which saves money and the environment. Win win situation.
Overest coffee dripMargaretGood value for the money.
No Microplastics in Your Coffee!LeDon't believe the bad reviews, this makes the best cup of strong, pour-over coffee ever! Use it with a paper coffee filter to create a slower drip (stronger coffee) & prevent any grounds from leaking through. I'm making perfect European-style coffee with this & am so happy with the results. Throw away your plastic coffee maker to avoid microplastics & plastic chemicals, opt for this stainless-steel coffee maker instead. I'm using it daily, letting it air dry upside down, & am so happy that it there is no rust. Sometimes rusting can happen with stainless steel, but I'm not experiencing that with this particular product! Thank you Ikea, this is my most favorite coffee maker that I've ever owned. Please always keep this in stock!
Coffee filter holderMichaelGreat price and quality. The spout is a little too long.
works OK without paper filterKirstenunlike most metal mesh reusable filters, this one keeps the water in contact with the grounds long enough for a nice extract. The stainless steel material is an excellent choice: sturdy enough that it can take a tumble and not shatter (unlike ceramic), and it is not plastic, nylon, etc. The only blooper is the support platter which is solid, making it impossible to see how full the cup is getting. Unless you are using a glass mug or pouring over a measured amount of water to fill but not overfill, it is easy to end up with fresh coffee all over the counter.
Great for filtering with minor modAnonymous reviewerInitially, I was in the group that was frustrated with weak coffee and overflowing cups. I got a 500 mL measuring cup (looks like a graduated cylinder with a handle and pour spout) to stir hot water and coffee and then pour through the filter. Much easier than cleaning a French press, the measuring cup takes the guesswork out of volume, and coffee is strong.
Easy to use multi purpose pour overJoanBought this for camping but will keep it handy at home for brewing one cup in the afternoon. Used already ground coffee and the mesh filter worked just fine. Since we use a metal filter in our drip coffee maker, the thick layer at the bottom of the the cup is not a problem. The cover that holds the funnel in place helps keep the coffee warm while it brews. And the funnel will come in handy on its own
Poorly designed- makes bad coffeeNikhilUnfortunately too much sediment flows through and the water does not seep throughly slowly enough to get proper coffee flavors. The result is weak and muddy coffee. If you use a paper filter it works fine but then what’s the point of the metal filter they’ve provided? A regular pour over mug is just fine.
Best Pour-over filter!BeckyThis is so much better than using paper filters and a ceramic holder. It's easy to clean. Highly recommended.
Works for UsMichele DThis coffee filter system works better than the other 2 I purchased elsewhere. However, the base unscrews, I'm thinking for cleaning purposes, and the top filter has popped off its base. Other than that we like it very much.
Good quality but…AlinaGood quality but too many moving parts.
Works greatMarieFilter allows water to flow and keeps grounds inside. Easy to clean.
1 year laterCloudStill great! We use recycled paper basket filters. Not a perfect fit, but absorbs the oil in the coffee. Fits a Starbucks venti mug perfectly and fits flat, but not as nicely on medium and small mugs. It hasn't rusted or dented despite being dropped a gajillion times. Love the plastic-free design.
Well Designed and Built ProductAnonymousI love the overall design and build quality, but it could be better if the filter could be finer.
works perfectly!Dejacontrary to what others have said, this pour over funnel is perfect! you'll still need a filter for coffee (as you do with most pour overs if you don't want a gritty, full bodied brew) but it does the job very well. 10/10 would recommend

Story
A better everyday one cup at a time
Have you had coffee or tea today? Statistically, you most likely have. In fact, these hot brews are the most consumed beverages in the world next after water. They’re a part of life that can give a silver lining to any moment. That’s why we decided to update our selection of products to make that perfect cup – from the tea infuser and the kettle to the milk frother.
Malin Ljungström, who was involved in developing the range, shares her insights. “To many, the smell of coffee and tea means well-being and a homey feeling. Since we want to improve people’s everyday, we’re offering products that make it possible for more to experience more feelgood moments at home.”
Developing things that make a difference
For all tastes and different wallets
No matter how you enjoy your cup, you’ll find the things that put an extra flavor to your drink in the range. Another good thing is that there’s something for all wallets. “It’s one of our contributions to a better life at home. A way to improve people’s everyday one cup at a time,” concludes Malin.
Material
What is stainless steel?
Stainless steel is found in everything from building structures and cars to sinks and knives. It’s easy to see why it has so many uses. Stainless steel is hard and durable and has good resistance to corrosion – namely rust. It generally has a low nickel content, and for IKEA products we mainly use stainless steel that’s nickel-free. Like many other metals, it can be recycled again and again to become new, hardwearing items – without losing its valuable properties.
