Item, but not the store packaging it was shipped in, is in great condition, but is not an 8 cup coffee press. It is an 8 "tasses" coffee press. That makes it a bit less than 4 cups (a cup is 8 oz) coffee press. Very unhappy about size, but seller does not take returns and it's not really worth the trouble or $$ to send back. Seller should be accurate with written descriptions as English is a very precise language and 8 cups = 64 oz.
