The first press should be free because over the lifetime you'll spend far more in replacement beakers than the cost of the press. Be sure to measure your old (broken) beaker to match up with the correct replacement part. Look at these things the wrong way and they break. But if you insist on supporting this flawed design then this is a good way to keep the coffee flowing (or keep the wife happy).
I've only had this replacement glass a few weeks, but it seems to be identical to the original it replaced. The original lasted about 6 years, and only bit the dust due to careless dishwasher loading my one of my family members.
Bye now. And I am not going to tell you, "glass breaks so be careful" either because--you know--that's obvious. Rather, I'd do a good review for a coffeemaker I DID like, after chucking this one out. Unless you threw it away before thinking, "Maybe I could just buy a new glass thingie." Then you'll have to buy a whole new one. It fits fine in the cage, just like the original one.
Too bad,too, because here's a nice replacement and it's cheaper than buying a new one. Yes I would. If you think I'm going to say "don't buy this because the coffeemaker is no good" why would I. If you need a replacement beaker for your Bodum glass coffee press, this is it. If I thought that, I would not buy a replacement and I would not bother to come here and lecture you about it.
So, if you break your Bodum, get this replacement beaker instead of a whole coffeemaker.
Bodum's 4-cup Melior model is a different size. This is terrible customer service, especially considering that sooner or later glass beakers will break. "Product Features" are inaccurate: "Fits all Bodum 4-cup coffee press models and styles". Bodum does not offer replaceable glass beakers for models that have been discontinued.
It fits OK but it a little bid tighter, and is difficult to remove for the washing purpose. It is not the same as was original one, makes a noisewhen glass sliding in the metal parts of the Press.
