Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.

Overview

The Hario V60-02W is the ceramic version of Hario's flagship pour-over design. It brews up to 4 cups using ground coffee and paper filters. At 4.7 x 5.5 x 4 in and 1.1 lb, it is compact and easy to handle. The glossy white ceramic finish resists staining, and the dishwasher-safe rating is a genuine convenience over many competitors.

Ceramic retains heat better than plastic during the pour, which helps maintain stable extraction temperature. The V60 cone design with a single large opening at the bottom is intended to give the brewer control over flow rate by adjusting pour speed. Paper filters contribute to a clean, bright cup with low sediment.

At $29 with 11,800 reviews at 4.8 stars and 60 recent monthly purchases, this is one of the most data-backed pour-over drippers available. It is not the cheapest option, but the ceramic build quality and rating track record justify the price for most buyers.
