Overview
The Hario SSD-200-B uses stainless steel rather than the ceramic or glass more common in the V60 lineup. The matte finish resists fingerprints and sits cleanly on a countertop. At 4.53 x 4.65 x 5.24 inches and 0.34 lb, it's a compact, lightweight dripper that won't take up much space.
Paper filters are used here, which produces a brighter, cleaner cup compared to reusable metal filters. Stainless steel handles thermal stress easily and is dishwasher safe, which simplifies cleanup versus glass or ceramic alternatives.
The 4.7 rating from 2,300 reviews gives this product strong credibility. That's a large enough pool to trust, and the rating is near the top of the pour-over silo. At $31.15, it competes squarely with the ceramic V60 and similar mid-range drippers.
