I've had a bodum glass pot for years and have broken the glass in the past but only twice. What I hated about the Bodum was that my coffee got cold really fast and I had to hurry up and drink it or I'd have to warm it up in the microwave which I don't like to do. 
After the second time breaking the Bodum glass I reached and found the Frieling french press. Ordered it right away based on the high ratings all over the web. I LOVE this french press. The coffee stays hot for a long time so I don't have to rush. It's made of very heavy duty construction and I like the brushed metal design, goes well with my All Clad cookware. Overall no complaints about this pot accept for one, the opening spout doesn't close up and it does release some heat out but not enough to make a major difference.
