“Have to give it a 4 of 5.
The material that the sealing gasket is made from is not the same as the original. Feels more like some kind of vinyl, not the rubber construction of the original.
Works fine though, just feels cheesy…”
Hey Theron! Actually, both versions are made of the same material and it's silicone... You can always brew without the heat shield gasket! Either remove the lid entire, or you can pull the gasket off of the lid. It can be re-attached later.
Hope this helps!
“i think it works great to keep the water concentrated into the decanter. I accidentally threw one away when dumping my coffee grounds and ordered a replacement.”
“This purchase was a replacement for our heat shield that accidentally got thrown away (having a newborn will make you do crazy things). Works as expected. Shipping was quick. Not too thrilled that shipping was more than the item, but I understand shipping costs have gone up, etc. etc.”
