No listing here claims to stack, and the only published height is 0.4 inches for a pack of four flat discs.
By the Lush Editorial Team·Researched & Compared
I compared piece counts, published diameters, mesh figures, center hole sizes, steel grades and ring claims across seven French press screen listings, using only the makers' own text.
A 4 pack of 4 inch universal screens published at 0.4 inches for the pack, stating 100 mesh ultra fine filtration, a reinforced metal center ring to stop the mesh deforming during pressing, 304 stainless steel, a smooth polished surface and dishwasher safety, with a warning to check the original filter size first.
An 8 piece set containing six stainless steel screens plus one spiral disc and one cross disc stated to connect to the plunger rod, in 304 stainless steel described as cold and hot safe, claiming a higher density screen that filters 99 percent of used grounds, with diameters given as 3.6 inches, 3.75 inches and 4 inches in different places.
Six screens stated at approximately 4 inches in diameter with a 5/16 inch hole, published at 0.07 pounds for the set, which is the only weight figure in this pool, in stainless steel described as easy to carry and slow to rust, rinsed clean under a tap in seconds and suited to most 8 cup press designs.
A 6 pack publishing its diameter twice, as 4 inches and as 100 mm, with instructions to measure the existing filter for ideal compatibility, a reinforced metal center ring stated to prevent wear, and stainless steel mesh for 8 cup 34 oz presses rinsed clean under a faucet.
Four screens in grade 304 stainless steel with a 100 count fine mesh, each stated at approximately 4 inches in diameter with a 5/16 inch hole, and a compatibility list that names Bodum first alongside SterlingPro, Grosche, Primula, Bonjour, KONA, Frieling, Stanley and Le Creuset.

IBETTERN is the pick: four 4 inch screens published at 0.4 inches thick for the pack, with 100 mesh, a reinforced center ring, 304 stainless steel and stated dishwasher safety. YMMIND is the only set that adds a spiral disc and a cross disc for the plunger rod, though it publishes three different diameters. Boao gives six screens and the pool's only weight, 0.07 pounds. JIUZI publishes 4 inches and 100 mm. zhuohai names Bodum first.

They are already. None of the seven listings in this pool uses the word, because a screen is a flat metal disc and a pack arrives as a stack. The only height published anywhere here is 0.4 inches for a pack of four, and the only weight is 0.07 pounds for six. Storage is not the real constraint for this part, which is why this page ranks the sets on diameter, mesh and the center hole instead.
Measure the screen already in the plunger rather than going by the cup rating. Two listings say exactly that: one tells you to check the original filter size before ordering to avoid a mismatch, and another says it should be 4 inches, which it also gives as 100 mm. Five of the seven listings publish 4 inches for an 8 cup 34 oz press, and one publishes 3.6, 3.75 and 4 inches in different places.
They are the shaped parts of the plunger assembly that sit above and below the mesh and thread onto the rod, and one 8 piece set here includes both alongside six screens. That makes it the only pick that can rebuild a worn plunger rather than just replace the mesh. They are also the two pieces in this whole pool that will not lie flat in a stack, which is worth knowing if you store the spares in a mug.
It should hold back more silt, but the figures here cannot be compared. Two listings publish 100 mesh or a 100 count screen and neither states a wire gauge or an aperture, and mesh counts are not standardized between suppliers. A third claims 99 percent of used grounds filtered, which is a different kind of statement again. Treat a published number as a disclosure that the maker knows the specification, not as a ranking.
Because it publishes no diameter. That listing states only that it fits 1 to 8 cup French press makers, with a detachable structure and 304 stainless steel mesh, and gives no diameter, no weight, no dimensions and no mesh figure. For a part whose entire job is to match the disc already in your plunger, the absence of a diameter is disqualifying, however good the screens themselves may be.
Two of them publish the same text. One 6 piece set states the same 4 inch diameter, the same 5/16 inch hole, the same 100 count mesh and the same list of compatible press brands in the same order as the 4 piece set picked here. Listing them as two separate options would pad the page, so one stands for both and the duplication is named rather than hidden.

None of the seven listings in this pool uses the word stackable. It does not need to: a French press screen is a flat metal disc, and a pack of six arrives as a stack because that is the only shape it has. The one listing that publishes a height puts the whole 4 pack at 0.4 inches, which tells you how little there is to store.
So the figures that actually separate these sets are the count, the diameter, the mesh and whether anything in the box is not a flat disc. Counts run from four to eight pieces. Diameters are published as 4 inches by five of the seven, as 3.6 and 3.75 inches by one, and not at all by another. One set includes two shaped disks rather than screens.
| Specification | IBETTERN | YMMIND | Boao | JIUZI | zhuohai |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pieces stated | Four | Eight | Six | Six | Four |
| Flat screens in that count | Four | Six | Six | Six | Four |
| Diameter stated | 4 in | 3.6 in and 3.75 in | 4 in | 4 in, 100 mm | 4 in |
| Published height | 0.4 in | not published | not published | not published | not published |
| Published weight | not published | not published | 0.07 lb | not published | not published |
| Mesh figure stated | 100 mesh | not published | not published | not published | 100 count |
| Center hole stated | not published | not published | 5/16 in | not published | 5/16 in |
| Steel grade stated | 304 | 304 | Stainless steel | Stainless steel | 304 |
| Reinforced ring stated | Yes | not published | not published | Yes | not published |
| Dishwasher stated | Yes | not published | not published | not published | not published |
What the table cannot tell you is whether any of these discs fits your press, because a French press screen is measured against the one already in the plunger and not against a cup rating. Five listings publish 4 inches, one publishes two different figures in the same listing, and one publishes no diameter anywhere at all, which is why that one is not a pick here.
IBETTERN is the only listing in this pool that publishes a height, and it reads 0.4 inches for a 4 pack of 4 inch screens. That figure is the whole storage answer for this category: four discs together are less than half an inch thick, so they live in a mug, a drawer corner or the press box itself and take space you were never going to use anyway.
Boao publishes the other useful figure, 0.07 pounds, for six screens. Between them those two numbers make the case that storage is not a real constraint here, which is why the rest of this page spends its effort on the figures that decide whether a screen works: diameter, mesh, the center hole and whether the set includes hardware that is not a flat disc.
YMMIND is the exception, and it is the interesting one. Its 8 piece set is six stainless screens plus one spiral disc and one cross disc, stated to connect to the plunger rod. Those two are shaped parts rather than flat mesh, so they do not lie in the stack, and they are also the parts that fail on an old press when the mesh is still fine.
That makes it the only set here that can rebuild a plunger assembly rather than reskin it. The cost is that its own listing publishes three different diameters: 3.6 inches in the title, 3.75 inches in a feature bullet, and 4 inches in the size field. For a part whose only job is to match an existing screen, that is the least helpful kind of disagreement.
IBETTERN, Boao, JIUZI and zhuohai all publish 4 inches. JIUZI goes furthest and publishes it twice, as 4 inches and as 100 mm, and then tells you to measure your existing filter before ordering rather than trusting a cup rating. IBETTERN gives the same warning in different words: check your original filter size before ordering to avoid mismatch.
Boao and zhuohai both publish the center hole as well, at 5/16 inches, which is the figure that decides whether the disc threads onto the rod rather than whether it fits the carafe. Two listings publish a diameter and no hole, and the one listing left out of this shortlist publishes neither, describing itself only as fitting 1 to 8 cup presses.
Two listings publish a mesh figure. IBETTERN states 100 mesh and zhuohai states a 100 count fine mesh screen, and both argue the same thing: fine enough to hold back the silt that makes the last inch of the pot gritty. Neither says what wire gauge that number describes, and mesh counts are not standardized between suppliers.
The other three describe filtration in words instead. YMMIND claims a higher density screen that filters 99 percent of used grounds, JIUZI says fine stainless steel mesh, and Boao says designed to filter out coffee grounds or loose tea. None of those can be compared with a 100 mesh figure, so this page treats the published number as a disclosure rather than a ranking.
Pack size is the one place a buyer has a real choice, because a screen is a wear part. Boao and JIUZI give six, YMMIND gives six screens plus two disks, and IBETTERN and zhuohai give four. Boao states the six are enough to share with friends, and IBETTERN states the four allow regular replacement without repurchasing, which is the same argument at a different count.
Two of the five also publish a reinforced metal center ring: IBETTERN states it prevents mesh deformation during pressing, and JIUZI states it prevents wear and tear for a longer service life. That is the part of a cheap screen that usually goes first, and only those two listings mention it. IBETTERN is also the only one of the five stating dishwasher safety.
One 6 pack in this pool publishes no diameter, no weight, no dimensions and no mesh figure, describing itself only as fitting 1 to 8 cup presses with a detachable structure. For a replacement part that is bought by measurement, no published diameter is disqualifying, so it is not a pick here even though nothing is wrong with the description.
The other omission is a near duplicate. A 6 piece set in this pool publishes the same 4 inch diameter, the same 5/16 inch hole, the same 100 count mesh and the same list of compatible press brands as the zhuohai set, in the same order. Treating two listings with identical published text as two options would be padding, so one stands for both.
You want the storage question answered. IBETTERN is the only set that publishes a height, 0.4 inches for four 4 inch screens, with 100 mesh, a reinforced center ring, 304 stainless steel and stated dishwasher safety. It is the most fully documented set in this pool.
Your plunger hardware is worn, not just the mesh. YMMIND ships six screens plus a spiral disc and a cross disc that connect to the rod. Read its three different diameter figures, 3.6, 3.75 and 4 inches, and measure your old screen before ordering.
You replace screens often. Boao gives six at a stated 4 inch diameter with a 5/16 inch hole and publishes 0.07 pounds for the set, the only weight in the pool. It states no mesh count and no ring.
You are not sure what size your press takes. JIUZI publishes 4 inches and 100 mm, tells you to measure the existing filter, and states a reinforced metal center ring across a 6 pack. It publishes no mesh figure and no hole size.
You have a Bodum. zhuohai names Bodum first in a long compatibility list, publishes 4 inches, a 5/16 inch hole, a 100 count mesh and 304 stainless steel across four screens. It states no ring and no dishwasher claim.
These are the figures a buyer needs from a replacement part, and that these listings do not publish.
