Title: It was a carafe. It replaced one that broke.
Product review: Given this was a $10 carafe for a $24.95 coffee maker, I was a little hesitant not to just buy a whole new coffee maker that came with a carafe. But I liked my Mr. Coffee coffee maker in its simplicity and uncomplicated design. I also hate waste, and if the coffee maker still works (how many parts can fail on a coffee maker, really?) I just waited until I got free shipping and bought this carafe.The only worry I have is that when it cools down, I hear creaking noises. The carafe that replaced this did not have that. I think it's the shrinking of the metal band around the bottom, but there's this fear the glass will just shatter in my hand one day and then scalding hot coffee everywhere. My last carafe didn't do this, someone left it in the sink, and dropped a cast iron skillet on it. That carafe lasted 5 years, though. I hope this lasts as long.
