About Secura
Secura is a North American small-appliance manufacturer that sells its lineup under two brand names, SECURA and DUXTOP, with the DUXTOP name built specifically around its line of portable induction cooktops. The company is manufactured by Secura Inc., headquartered in Brookfield, Wisconsin, and has sold more than 8 million units in the US market across a range that spans coffee grinders and makers, deep fryers, electric burners and grills, induction cooktops, knife sharpeners, milk frothers, and insulated water kettles and French presses. Secura describes its own design priorities as ease of use, environmentally friendly materials, ergonomic design, and affordability -- a value-focused positioning rather than a premium one.
That value positioning holds up in our own testing. The Secura 34oz Insulated French Press carries the highest rating and deepest review base of any press in our roundup -- 4.7 stars across more than 35,000 owners -- while delivering most of the heat retention and durability of a much pricier all-steel press like the Frieling, at roughly a fifth of the cost. The Secura 17oz Electric Milk Frother is similarly the largest-capacity automatic frother we tested short of the Breville, with a fully detachable, dishwasher-safe stainless jug -- the kind of practical, no-fuss engineering the Duxtop induction cooktop line has built its decade-plus reputation on.

Why we recognized Secura
The Brew Gazette Top Brand recognition isn't paid for and can't be applied for. We award it to the brands whose products independently earn top-pick status in our hands-on category reviews. Secura earned it because its products came out on top in 3 separate guides — evaluated the same way every product on this site is: bought, brewed with daily, and judged on what lands in the cup.
Secura products we feature
Secura 34oz Stainless Steel Insulated French Press Coffee Maker
It delivers most of what a much pricier all-steel press like the Frieling does -- a double-wall 304 stainless body that keeps coffee hot far longer than glass -- at roughly a fifth of the price, and it backs that value with the highest rating and deepest review base of any press we tested: 4.7 stars across more than 35,000 owners. The 18/10 exterior and 18/8 interior resist rust, and it ships with two spare filter screens so the filter stack can be rebuilt for years without hunting for parts.

Secura 50oz Stainless Steel Insulated French Press Coffee Maker
A full 50-ounce capacity brews for a crowd in one plunge -- roughly six mugs -- so a family breakfast, a brunch, or an office pot happens without running back-to-back batches. It carries the same double-wall 304 stainless build and 4.7 rating as its smaller sibling, so the extra volume comes with no drop in heat retention, durability, or owner satisfaction, and it holds a big batch hot for about an hour.

Secura 17oz Electric Milk Frother and Steamer
At 17 ounces it's the largest-capacity automatic frother we tested short of the Breville, frothing and warming enough for two or three drinks in a single cycle -- the right electric for a household that makes milk drinks together rather than one at a time. The stainless jug fully detaches from the base and is dishwasher safe, a real advantage over frothers with nonstick interiors that must be hand-washed, and one-touch hot foam, cold foam, and warm-milk settings make it a genuine 4-in-1.

- Three category-winning products across two separate Brew Gazette roundups -- the 34oz and 50oz insulated French presses, and the 17oz electric milk frother -- each earning its runner-up slot on build quality and owner satisfaction against established competitors like Frieling, Stanley, and Breville.
- The 34oz French press carries the highest rating and deepest review base of any press in our French press roundup: 4.7 stars across more than 35,000 owners, delivering most of a premium all-steel press's heat retention and durability at a fraction of the price.
- A genuine value-engineering identity, not a repackaged commodity line: Secura Inc. is a real North American manufacturer, headquartered in Brookfield, Wisconsin, that has sold more than 8 million units in the US under the SECURA and DUXTOP names.
- The 50oz French press and 17oz frother both scale up the same double-wall stainless and detachable dishwasher-safe design that earned the smaller models their spot, rather than cutting corners to hit a larger capacity.
- Every featured product ships with practical, owner-focused details -- spare filter screens on the French presses, a fully detachable stainless jug on the frother -- that reflect Secura's stated design priorities of ease of use and affordability.
