Bonjour Coffee Universal French Press Replacement Glass Carafe, 50.7-Ounce, None, 12 Cup

We had broken our French Press Glass Carafe and were going into caffeine withdrawal - things were getting serious. We ordered a replacement glass carafe through Amazon.ca and within two days our caffeine withdrawal was cured. Fast and efficient service - what more could you ask for.

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!

This product is a perfect, less expensive replacement for the 51oz. Bodum french press carafe. I just inboxed and slipped it into my Bodum cage, and it fits very well.The only differences I see: this carafe has no printed text on the side, which the Bodum does have and which I relied on to help me fill it to a consistent volume each time (so I suppose I’ll need to bust out a sharpie?). I will also say that the BonJour carafe feels noticeably lighter-weight, which makes me believe that the durability is likely a bit less than the Bodum, which is honestly the only reason a gave this product 4 out of 5 stars.But as an alternative to buying an entirely new Bodum French press, this is an excellent choice — you won’t be disappointed.

Fits perfectly for my French Press Grosche Madrid 1,5 liter.
