I have had this for press for 8 months and use daily. Mine has cracks in the bottom and now one on the side. So far no leaks. Anyone else?

yes recently cold weather,I could hear a cracking sound when I poured hot water in carafe.(plastic version) The Bodum was next to the window.Then when I pressed the plunger harder it would release coffee and grounds through these cracks.This is not on website or on their literature. I feel this is substandard and potentially dangerous product.

I would get a back up in case the pressure eventually will crack it or it may break.My son dropped his and it broke so he bought another one.He now has 2 and uses 1 for coffee and the other for tea.

Mine started letting grounds through as the stopper stopped stopping! It did great until about 4 months into it, and then slowly the rubber seal stopped working. Ended up tossing it and buying a cheap $8 one at Ross and the new one still works great months later!

Yeah, mine has vertical cracks up the sides now, and you can hear it crackling when I pour in the hot water. It's never been in the dishwasher, I always washed it by hand. It leaks coffee when pressed. Kind of disappointed in it. Back to the glass one, I guess.

Mine has no cracks. I have not dropped it and I don't heat water in it, hand wash it and remove the rubber ring fom the filter between uses, seems to seal better when pressing.

It's really shatterproof. Mine has no cracks. Of course, the inconvenient is the vase now looks blurred because of cleaning scratches.

I am so sorry to hear that. My Bodum is fine. I suggest you write a letter to the Company or call and explain the problem. It seems you may have received a faulty one. I am quite sure the Company will help you out and perhaps replace it. Tell them you bought at amazon.ca Good luck!

I have two...one leaks and the other one I have had no problems with and it runs everyday. I would of returned the other one but didn't get it done in time. I do plan on ordering another one soon. Was told that they will honor the returns.

This is my third one and none of them have leaked...I have used it everyday multiple times per day and it just wore out but never leaked.

I haven't experienced any dripping. We've probably had our press for about a year now and have experienced no problems!

I have only had them for a short while, but so far so good. A friend of mine has had them for much longer, and I have never heard her mention problems with leaks. She seems very happy with them. The seal seems pretty tight.

After using ours for a few months, I am beginning to notice a crack on the outside of the cup. It may be from the dishwashing. I do continue to use it for hot coffee. They are supposed to be guaranteed for life of normal wear.

I have had mine for more than 7 years and it never leaked. I am thinking of replacing it now simply because one cannot throw it in the washer.

Mine have only ever leaked when my child has chewed on the spout & created a larger hole in it. Otherwise, never & I've been using them for about a year.

I've dropped mine several times and so far no cracks although I wouldn't recommend making a habit of dropping it. : )As far as cleaning goes, I run the bottom portion through the dishwasher but clean the top two pieces by hand to keep the seals working properly. If you rinse it after each use, cleaning is a breeze.

Yes. I have used mine for several months now. No lumps. No leaks. I am very satisfied with it. Would buy another if this one ever broke.

Yes, mine started leaking right after 2 years exactly as described! Looks like a common prob. Too bad, I really like the design but wont buy it again...

Mine started to leak from the bottom about 8-9 months after purchase. I'll see if I can return it to Costco.

We have been washing ours in the dishwasher, and on two of the glasses, we've noticed there is a crack that runs all the way from the top to the bottom. It isn't leaking, and the crack doesn't appear to go all the way through the glass, but I thought it should be mentioned.

I've had mine for four or five months, and no sign of leaking. It seems very sturdy. Hope it lasts a long time. Very comfortable

I have had no problems with leaking, however I do try to avoid submerging it whenever possible... If it gets rained on when taking videos etc or cleaning it with water no problems yet.

I also bought mine from Costco. I've had it for over a year with no problem, but it started leaking recently from the bottom of the handle. You should return it for a new one.

So far ours is not leaking. That said it was only installed 2 months ago. Thanks for the heads up about this potential issue. I'll keep an eye on it and update my review if it becomes a problem.
