Four-piece aluminum Wear-Ever, non-electric drip, acquired by my great-grandma around 80 years ago and still in prime condition despite all those decades in continuous use.
Bakelite handles still tight. Doesn’t need filters. Easy to clean. There’s a pic of one on ebay today, item #361262455365. (I don’t know how to post pics.) We’ve got a history of trying newer coffee makers but they never last long. This thing is good for another 80 years.
