## Common ground
Both options describe a French press coffee maker, a manual device for brewing coffee using pressure and immersion.
## Options at a glance
**7323.93 – Made of stainless steel**
- **Defining trait:** Constructed primarily from stainless steel, distinguishing it by material composition.
- **Typical examples:** High-end French presses with stainless steel body and plunger.
- **Best fit when:** The product’s main body or key components are made of stainless steel.
**8210.00 – Non-electric mechanical appliances weighing 10 kg or less**
- **Defining trait:** Classified by function (non-electric, mechanical) and weight limit (≤10 kg), not material.
- **Typical examples:** Standard glass or plastic French presses used manually without power.
- **Best fit when:** The product is hand-operated, has no electricity, and weighs under 10 kg—common for most French presses.
## Key differences
| Feature | 7323.93 (Stainless steel) | 8210.00 (Non-electric, ≤10 kg) |
|-----------------------|----------------------------|--------------------------------|
| Primary criterion | Material | Function and weight |
| Covers plastic/glass? | No | Yes |
| Requires electricity? | Irrelevant | Must not use electricity |
## How to choose
- Is the French press made primarily of stainless steel? → 7323.93
- Does it have no electrical components and weigh less than 10 kg? → 8210.00
## Overlaps & pitfalls
A stainless steel French press that is non-electric and under 10 kg fits **both** options. Since the product can be classified under multiple HS codes, the correct choice depends on **priority**: if material matters (e.g., for durability or export), use 7323.93; otherwise, use 8210.00 as it is more functionally descriptive. If no context is given, **8210.00** is the safer default, as it covers the majority of French presses regardless of material
