Planetary Design French Press Travel Mugs
by Jacob Gordon, Nashville, TN on 03. 7.07
Planetary Design makes some of the nicest looking travel mugs I’ve seen in a long while—maybe ever. Their line of stainless steel gear is based on the original travel French press, a brilliant idea that puts the press and the mug together into the same unit. The colors are great, the mugs are a pleasure to handle, they seem built to last, and are very affordable. Several of their models come with a French press lid as well as a “sippy cap.” This is especially useful for tea drinkers who might otherwise use teabags for every cup. With this design you can use loose-leaf tea and also control the steeping time. While made in China, the company assures us their factory is well overseen and they visit is regularly.
