BonJour8-Cup French Press 53315 Replacement Glass Carafe, Universal Design

My original Bodum carafe broke simply from being picked up. No exaggeration. I have (and love) my Bodum Young Press Shock Resistant French Press Coffee Maker, 1.0-Liter, 34-Ounce, Red/Black. It was in the sink waiting to be washed and after removing the lid/press, I gripped it by the handle with my thumb resting on the glass rim. This tiny amount of pressure caused a LARGE shard of glass to break free under my thumb. Maybe there was a stress fracture from heat or some previous bump. The funny thing is, I chose this rubber press setup specifically to better protect the carafe from breaking. Anyway, back to this replacement...The Bodum branded equivalent was almost $10 more, required 1-2 days additional processing/handling, and I could be confident it would fit perfectly (and probably break after 6 months as well). This was cheaper, available for my prime shipping, and made of heat resistant glass. Figured it was worth a shot for only $15. It arrived a day early (THANK YOU AMAZON PRIME!) was packaged reasonably to prevent breakage, and FIT PERFECTLY in my Bodum shell. The glass is definitely thicker and feels sturdier than the original. I have yet to use it, so I'll be sure to update this if something goes terribly wrong and its a piece of garbage, but from the looks of it, this one should last longer work great. Don't waste your money on name brand this time. Great deal. Great product.

Mine got broken while washing and I was worried I won’t find the same fit , gladly I found this , quick delivery and easy to replace

I'll start by saying that at the time that I wrote this review there were 39 highly positive reviews and three less than positive or negative reviews. That means that as of right now, 94% of the people that reviewed this carafe strongly feel that it is equal to or better than the Bodum brand that it's designed to replace. Now that statistic alone should tell you something. I'm a French Press snob and I simply would not accept an inferior product. Let me tell you, the three (4%) of less than positive reviews of this carafe, simply by the nature of pure mathematics and physics, are not logical and are simply wrong.Although the dimensions of the carafes are ever so slightly different (5.2 x 5.2 x 8 inches for the BonJour versus 5 x 5 x 8 inches for the Bodum) This carafe works every bit as well as the Bodum in ALL respects. I've read the less than positive review that this carafe dribbles when pouring because the spout is not designed as well. THAT SIMPLY IS NOT TRUE!!! TAKE MY WORD ON THIS AND don't believe that other review it for a minute!!! The spout on the BonJour is slightly narrower than on the Bodum; this provides for a more accurate pour than the Bodum. I have experienced a little dribble with the Bodum brand from time to time but not with this one. There's also a review that claims that that this carafe is "looser in the holder" and that the press gets stuck in the bottom. This implies that the diameter of this carafe is smaller than the Bodum. That's simply a false claim and physically impossible asthe FACT of the matter is that THIS CARAFE IS 0.2 INCHES LARGER IN DIAMETER than the Bodum so if anything, it would be tighter, not looser! Again, this is just a physical impossibility proven by the logic and undeniability of mathematics. Furthermore, many reviewers have pointed out that this glass is thicker. When that's taken into account along with the fact that it's a larger diameter; well the review about it being looser in the frame is unsubstantiated and completely without merit. I don't understand the purpose of those reviews. If you are using the Bodum Chambord line of presses then this carafe, at current prices, is the way to go. There are other lines of Bodum French Presses and I can't speak for this carafe as a replacement for them but for the Chambord line, which I think is the finest, it's a "better than the original match. Disregard the ever so slight (0.2 inch) difference in diameter. You will love the fact that you bought a superior replacement carafe for one third to one half the price of the Bodum.Needing to buy replacement carafes is a given if you use a glass French Press. We use ours every day and probably buy an average of two carafes a year. Because it is stronger and thicker glass, I expect this brand of carafe will not need to be replaced as often. Regardless, we keep three on hand at all times but now that this one is available for $17 while the Bodum is currently selling for $35, I'm going to buy two more before the word gets out and the price goes higher; which it will; or the price of the Bodum will come down. We were fortunate to buy our first one from Amazon Warehouse deals last week in "Used - Like New" condition for $15. Too bad they don't have any more. It is my hope that those three people will return theirs then they too can be bought for a couple of dollars less from the Amazon Warehouse Deals. One must strike while the iron is hot.It will be nice to have five on hand. Then, we'll have a clean carafe for each day of the work week and can put the grinds in the compost bin and clean the carafes on the weekends.That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!

My Bodum Brazil has been an integral part of my morning routine for over 4 years now. I never had a problem until an earthquake or ghost sent the full french press from its secure position in the middle of my kitchen counter to the floor below. The true culprit of this accident, I will never know, but needless to say, the cleanup was quite messy. When I took to Amazon to find a replacement carafe, I found it cost less to purchase an entirely new Bodum Brazil than to buy the replacement glass from Bodum. Incredulous, I happened upon this carafe, which luckily costs less than the two prior options. I am happy to report that it fits perfectly and my morning routine is back to normal. If you have the standard Bodum Brazil, do not hesitate to order this replacement carafe, especially if you live in an earthquake prone area or suffer from poltergeists, restless spirits, etc. You may find that it takes a bit of manipulation to position the spout so that it does not leak when it is poured, but this is pretty straightforward.About the packaging--When ordering glass this is always a concern. I was doubly worried as the delivery company tossed the package over the 8 foot high security gate at my complex. Luckily it is packaged well with bubble wrap and the carafe itself is quite sturdy.

It is a hair thinner than the original glass, but It’s tight enough that it stays together. My son likes it because it’s easier to take apart and put together. A suitable replacement when you are unable to find an exact replacement.

We broke the glass beaker in our French press and bought this as a replacement. But though it fits the metal frame perfectly, it’s a little taller than the original glass. So the plunger doesn’t quite go all the way down.

Great glass coffee replacement insert! I'm on my 3rd order of these things. They work great. Are smoothly finished. But they are glass, so they do break if you aren't careful with them...Hopefully this 3rd one will be the last I need to order for a long long time! I do put mine in the dishwasher regularly.

A direct fit for the unbreakable glass....my fault of course
