I purchased this as a back-up to my previously buy from another site in 2016. Evidently, it's now hard to find, but was pleased to see its availability at Wayfare, despite its higher price. Unfortunately, the rubber seal is far inferior to the original design: it is thinner and its poor material/manufacturing quality is evident--the mold flashing was not even (fully) removed. After the third pour, the liquid leaks. This is a NOT Drip-free carafe like the original design. Be warned.
