THe new one is the same size as the original one was from ten or twelve years ago, so the plunger fits very nicely, etc. What can you say - if you need a replacement bodum glass, then there is nothing quite like a replacement bodum glass. I dropped the old one down the stairs.
It fit and worked just as I expected. This beaker replaced the one we broke for our french press coffee maker.
There was a small piece broken from the top edge. Arrived intact, fit nicely into the stand. The one I broke was even usable while I waited for the new one to ship.
Instead of replacing the whole press when a beaker breaks, get the genuine Bodum replacement on here thereby saving $20 to purchase the whole thing. Use a swizzle stick to stir coffee as you pour ensuring no cracks. its a good thing I can find them on Amazon and at a price that I have yet to find cheaper. Quality for sure and they will last if you take care and dont drop yours in the sink like I did mine. Thanks Amazon. Bodum makes the best ever coffee press. Im a coffee purest and using glass-beaker only presses makes the best cup.
This makes sense for the manufacturer from a materials and shipping standpoint, but it will certainly affect durability and value for the consumer.Now that I'm considering a THIRD replacement, I'm wondering what other options are available. Love the product, but I have now broken two beakers by simply pouring hot water into the beaker. In both cases, they cracked (and then exploded) leaving a most interesting mess to clean up.Upon closer inspection of the beaker, it is clear that it is made with ZERO extra material and heft.
