Overall Verdict
The Hario Mizudashi and the Goodful are two of the tallest cold brew coffee makers that we have tested. By comparison, the Hario is a slender and elegant glass carafe and stands at 11.5 inches. The Goodful, an all-plastic design, is slightly taller at 11.8 inches.
Although both are designed to brew in the door bin of a refrigerator, there are major differences aside. The Hario is not completely airtight, leaks odors, and the poor brew ratio produces a sourish insubstantial brew.
The Goodful is a much better brewer all round. It has a plastic and nylon filter and the vessel is completely airtight and leak-proof with a twist-to-pour lid. Although the material quality of the Hario is much better, it’s not a brewer we’d recommend due to its fundamentally flawed design and poor performance.
