Has held up for almost 2 years... (2010-04-14)
I opted for the "shatterproof" model when I bought my first Bodum; not quite understanding at the time that their "polycarbonate" meant "plastic" -- so it wasn't as "elegant" as the French press coffee-makers I had seen around. But given the number of glass drip carafes we've gone through before I went to press coffee, I wasn't too disappointed. It's held up very well, especially considering that I grind my coffe myself and do it way too fine, so it takes extra *oomph* to get the press down! It is time for a replacement now, since my original has developed stress cracks radiating from the center bottom. It's not yet affecting it's function, but I'm afraid it's a matter of time... It's been through the dishwasher, though, countless times; and has probably hit the floor once or twice!
Shatterproof is right! (2010-04-09)
My husband loves his morning coffee, but we have a terrible time with breaking glass carafes. After breaking the carafe that came with his french press, I was ready to banish homemade coffee.
Then I saw this shatterproof plastic one on amazon. I got it, hoping it would be the right size, hoping it wouldn't affect taste, hoping it really was shatterproof.
The carafe fits our french press perfectly. It can go through the dishwasher, and it has survived a couple of falls. We've had it around two months now, and it still looks brand new. It's used daily.
My husband is a bit of a gourmet when it comes to coffee, and if this affected taste at all, he would not be using it.
