☕ - The hot beverage that powers the world!
Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!
Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

I don't think they're saying it failed. They're saying that it will fail long before the body ever does.
Oh. But, the glass isn't for longevity. It's to provide insulation and prevent the plastic from (imperceptively) breaking down and leaking microplastics into your coffee. I didn't mean the plastic would fail. In fact, I'd expect the plastic to last longer than the glass, just by the sheer probability of accidents over the lifetime of the device.
