I should have bought a new coffee grind instead.

melitta cone filter manual coffeemaker
I have been a coffe drinker for the longest time and I used this coffee maker for a couple of months already.
I think the carafe of this machine is not durable because it got cracked after a slight bump on the counter top.
Another issue: the handle reaches down near the stove top and if carelessly placed over a burner, can melt, drip liquid plastic onto the burner, and even catch on fire.
I think there are coffee makers that are better than this one which can get a value for our money. The design is also flawed.
In particular, the handle really ought to have been made of a more heat-resistant material or else located differently. I should have bought a new coffee grind instead.
