what our customer say this product:

1. CB Verified Buyer – 20 March 2024

   I loved this, while it lasted. The glass is really too thin. One little knock over on the counter, and it’s smashed. $$ down the drain.
   

2. Mike Verified Buyer – 20 June 2024

   works, but a pain in the butt to clean and it’s annoying as hell having to get the grounds off of the rim to get it to stay closed
   

3. Josh Lopez Verified Buyer – 17 November 2024

   I’ve had a few of these, this is the nicest one.
   

4. Miami Master Verified Buyer – 27 January 2025

5. GDR Verified Buyer – 19 March 2025

   Too small.

   We enjoyed this for a month before it met its demise in the sink. Note: do not allow your spouse to put this in the sink to be washed later. Keep it on the counter until you wash it and it will be fine.

   yay.. 1st to review! 🙂 I wanted a 40 fluid ounce pour-over coffee maker similar to the Chemex 8-cup to use in combination with a Bonavita BV1800 8-Cup Coffee Maker with Glass Carafe. The reason I didn’t opt for the Chemex is its height. The Bonavita model I chose includes a warming plate, which takes up additional space. The distance between its warming plate (on bottom) and the shower head (on top) is 9 inches, which doesn’t take into consideration that the center of the warming plate (where the glass carafe sits) is slightly recessed. The manufacture’s product page for the Chemex 8-cup lists its height as 9 1/8″, whereas the height of this item is listed to be 9″. Some user reviews suggest that the Chemex 8-cup can fit if the shower head is lifted slightly, but I wanted a pour-over glass carafe that can fit easily without requiring any intervention. I purchased this item in that hope, and it works perfectly. There’s just enough clearance that the glass can slide onto the Bonavita’s warming plate, and when it rests in the center recess there’s a nice gap between its top and the shower head. If handled with care, the glass never comes into contact with the shower head. As for this item itself.. pros: * Real/branded “DURAN” borosilicate glass from Germany. This is like if it said “PYREX”, but the quality of glass that “pyrex” no longer produces for household cookware; now they only sell this type of glass for scientific laboratory equipment (glass beakers, etc). * The silicone holders are perfect. Attractive and functional. They work very well and are easily removed, as they’re held in place by two buttons. * The capacity (40 oz) is exactly the same as the carafe that it replaces. * The shape makes it easy to clean (with a wand brush). Other comparable products tend to be rounded (as though made of mouth blown glass), which results in areas that are more difficult to reach to clean. cons: * none comments: * I do wish the glass were just a tad bit thicker. It isn’t so thin that I would feel at all fearful that it’s likely to break as the result of normal usage. It’s a very good compromise between price and quality. Nevertheless, I would have gladly paid a bit more for a heavier weight product. Of course, my use case is unusual and prevented me from buying the Chemex. * I just brewed my first 8-cup pot of coffee using this combo: Bonavita BV1800 + Cafe Brew PO108 + the reusable filter that came with the PO108. I measured 8 grams of coffee per cup.. 64 grams in total. The end result was very good. * I have a much better quality (Osaka “To-ji”) reusable filter arriving tomorrow. From everything I’ve read on the topic, the filter can make a huge difference in the quality of the resulting coffee. Chemex makes a exceptional paper filter, and this Osaka reusable filter is reviewed as being an excellent substitute. I’m looking forward to doing a taste-test comparison.
