An AeroPress makes use of circular paper filters that can easily be re-used for 2-3 cups. They provide a 100 or so with the kit. Hard to beat its quality to price ratio as many will attest to.
Not really french press, much cleaner and smoother, they come with 350 filters. The coffee they make is really good. I am currently using a balinese medium roast for all my coffee making. App 40g in a stovetop, aeropress or woodneck pour over. Just with different grinds.
