Turn them into Tupperware for replacements!

I love my stainless steel French press! I also recommend considering a stainless steel pour over cone: for a single cup it’s quick, easy, and makes an even tastier coffee in my opinion. I mostly use my French press for cold brew these days

My mom still uses the red pitcher with that push button lid.

Gotta wonder how much that plastic is degraded by now.

I’m asking if others who’ve bought the bed would recommend it… and I appreciate all their responses. You’re a clown.

Well I mean I've already had a pair that made it that long. I don't see how buying two pairs and rotating them so they last 2 years is any different to having one pair of shoes that lasts a year.

I’m not sure there will be a shoe out there that will last 2 years being worn every day for more than 4-6 hours. Better to get 2 pairs and rotate.

While it's certainly possible, particularly with the yellow pitchers. I would be surprised if the square/rectangular containers were manufactured before 1980. My mom was a "Tupperware Lady" from like 1979-1984 or '85 and I remember the change to the mustard yellow, orange and reddish brown color scheme and then the pastel/almost light mint green colors of those square containers on the right. The pastels were later and might not have been until the later 80's or maybe even early 1990's (we still got the catalogues and some containers even after mom stopped selling it). I've use Tupperware from the time period my mom was selling it pretty much continually (I'm in my later 40's). My family has no issues which could be attributable to lead or heavy metal poisoning.

I can not find them. I don't think they sell them anymore. Should have made that clear. Forgot to mention it.

I have similar memory but with one of those orange pitcher ones with beige lid that was permanently stained from Kool aid. Also drank so much frozen juice concentrate out of it. Wonder if people still drink that.

Hate to say it but plastic does decompose after a long time and releases particles into your food. I wouldn’t consider such old plastic safe.

They are comfortable and they are very functional…but man are they ugly. I have a pair and my wife saw me wear my hiking shoes and just immediately asked me wtf I was wearing.

New sets cost about $20 (at Costco) for a set bigger than this.....

NGL I had to give that Mueller press to my neighbor (who LOVES IT) because the metal on metal factor gave me the deep willies and made my teeth hurt every time I heard it.
Has anyone else had that experience? It was enough to make to reconsider a fragile glass press and treat it with kid gloves.

Second this! I. Have been using one every day for work the past five years and it looks and has performed amazingly!
Coincidentally, another good Duluth made brand is Frost River.
