From the bestselling author of Shopgirl comes the tender story of a troubled man who finds love, and life, in the most unexpected place. Daniel resides in his Santa Monica apartment, living much of his life as a bystander: He watches from his window as the world goes by, and his only relationships seem to be with people who barely know he exists. He passes the time idly filling out contest applications, counting ceiling tiles, and estimating the wattage of light bulbs. It is through Daniel's growing attachment to Clarissa, and to Teddy, that he finally gains the courage to begin to engage the world outside, and in doing so, he discovers love, and life, in the most surprising places. Filled with his trademark humor, tenderness, and out and out hilarious wordplay, The Pleasure of My Company is a tour de force sure to delight all of Steve Martin's fans.

Nice little cold brew pitcher
Color: Black, Size: 40 oz
Easy to use and very easy to clean. We have made one batch of cold brew so far and are very pleased with the results, the suggested measurements produced a very smooth tasting coffee. Definitely worth trying for the price.

Best cold brew ever
Color: Black, Size: 40 oz
How did I live without this?? My ice coffee made in this is the best I have ever had. It is very easy to use and also very easy to clean. I was very impressed with the quality of the pitcher. It is very thick acrylic and cleans up great with absolutely no staining or discoloration. I am going to be ordering another for my brother! I highly recommend this one!

Very nice but -
Color: Black, Size: 64 oz
Got it today. Just put it to use and made some cold brew. Looks nice and sturdy and doesn’t leak. Has a great large capacity to make a lot of cold brew. Lid closure is great and seals nicely. Very easy to use and user friendly. The plastic material is very thick feeling so that tells me it will withstand quite a bit. I like it so far. My only issue is as soon as I opened the box and pulled the spoon out, it was broken. The bottom stand is completely broken and barely stands up. So that’s disappointing. Otherwise, seems very nice.

Reliable and Easy to Use Cold Brew Coffee Maker
Color: Black, Size: 40 oz, Color: Black, Size: 40 oz
This cold brew maker is easy to use and does the job well. I get smooth coffee every time without bitterness. The size is good and fits in my fridge without taking much space. The filter works well and keeps most of the grounds out of the coffee. Cleaning is simple and does not take much time. The build feels solid for daily use. I like that I can control how strong the coffee is by changing the water and coffee ratio. One thing to know is that you need coarse ground coffee for best results. (I use Bizzy coffee) Letting it steep longer makes the flavor better. It is not insulated, so you should keep it in the fridge while brewing.

Best cold brew brewer out there
Color: Black, Size: 40 oz
One of my favorite purchases in a long time. This coffee maker is just a perfect size and it can be put in the fridge in any direction, on its side, on its top, whatever. It does not leak and it's very easy to clean. Just a superior product all the way around.
