Overview
A manual pour-over cone dripper in the size 02 format, built to brew 1 to 4 cups directly into a mug or carafe. Clear plastic construction keeps it light and inexpensive compared to Hario's ceramic or glass versions.
- Size 02 cone fits 1 to 4 cups
- Clear BPA-free plastic body
- Single large hole controls drip rate by hand
- Ships with a scoop and paper filters
Who it's for
Suits someone who wants to control pour rate, water temperature and brew time by hand, whether for a daily home ritual or a compact option for travel and camping. Not a fit for anyone who wants a machine that measures and heats water automatically.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Reviewers who use it daily describe consistent results and call it sturdy for the price, with several saying it replaced a broken older V60 with no drop in performance. One buyer flagged that it only takes Hario-style number 2 filters, not Melitta shapes, and a couple mention the brew takes longer than a machine, though they consider the coffee better for it.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Light enough to pack for travel
- Low cost compared to ceramic or glass V60 models
- Works for 1 to 4 cups depending on pour
- Included scoop and paper filters help new users start
- Only fits Hario-style number 2 filters, not Melitta shapes
- No timer or temperature guide built in
- Brew quality depends on the user's pour technique
Performance notes
Water poured into the cone travels down through the spiral ridges to a single large hole at the bottom, so flow rate is set mostly by how the water is poured rather than by the dripper itself. That single-hole design is why V60 brewing rewards a slow, controlled pour over a quick dump of water.
