 It's a Carafe! November 16, 2008
The good:
It's an espresso carafe!
Good, standard replacement
The not so good:
White handle, not black
Having broken the carafe to my espresso machine, natch, I endured for a long time with a makeshift pitcher. I finally got tired of having to estimate the water amount and decided to treat myself to a replacement. It's nice to have the lines on the side again; I feel more legit making my espresso now.
I deduct one star for cost. While it is not as expensive as other replacements, I ask myself why it costs as much as it does. It's not precision equipment, it's a freakin' carafe. Oh well. It certainly measures up to what it should be, there are no defects, and I can't find one for cheaper. I suspect that if Ikea set their minds to the problem, they'd have their Swedish elves somehow churn them out for two bucks a pop. Maybe by the next time I break an espresso carafe, which I see in the near future...
Anyway, it's fine, but mine came with had a white handle! It's the seller's fault and not a fault of the product itself, but... since they're the main seller for this product on Amazon, I thought it was worth noting in my review. It really wasn't a big enough deal for me to actually do anything about it, though.
Also, it didn't come with a lid, which my old one had. Is that normal? Is it just me? Again, I'm just happy to have it when I know I could really just be using a coffee mug.
It wasn't broken, either, but I have never had anything come broken that I've ordered on Amazon.
 Cheaper and works fine October 18, 2008
It is cheaper then the Delonghi replacement and works just fine. I own the Caffe Sorrento model BAR 4U. The only thing is the handle shape doesn't match the original. So if you are picky the handle is rounded as shown and doesn't match the coffee ground handle. But I don't mind so I am happy.
As with all glass/fragile items ordered on Amazon the first one arrived broken. Second order was fine.
big bang for your bucks October 3, 2008

This is a great alternative to the expenseive krups carafes, I have broken three so far and was relunctan to expend a lot in a new one until I found this one. Great!
