Improves on the Percolator's Function and Looks
By El Officianado
I previously purchased the Farberware "Yosemite" stove top percolator from Amazon. One of the percolator's reviewers mentioned purchasing this glass top because the plastic one that came with the percolator eventually wore loose due to screwing it back on and off (probably for washing underneath the plastic ring that the top fits onto). So, I purchased this item. I know, the shipping costs exceed the price of the item since at this writing, it has to be purchased from a third party seller on Amazon. However, it turned out to be well worth it for the following reasons: l. The glass top fits flush with the metal lid of the percolator and is secured firmly underneath the lid with a metal ring that has a drain hole. Accordingly, you do not have to continually remove the top when washing the percolator. This eliminated having to take off the original plastic top and and its ring to clean underneath (which was a pain because this required several tries to catch the screw of the plastic top correctly). 2. The glass top has a concave groove around its circumference which enables one to easily remove the percolator lid. In essence, it doubles as a handle for the percolator's lid. The original plastic top was no more than a nub that often required you to remove the percolator lid by prying it off around its edges with your nails. 3. Lastly, for the fashion conscious, it does make the percolator look better. A touch of class never hurts anything. The original top and its plastic ring made it look cheap.Hope this helps my fellow Amazon purchasers to decide whether or not to buy this top.

Disappointingly fragile
By S. Tollefson
It does the job, but at $8 (with shipping) it is far too expensive. Worse, the glass is too thin to hold up to normal wear and tear. Mine broke off in my hand after only a few months. The old ones were made of such thick glass they were virtually unbreakable--they eroded away like a piece of geology but didn't break.However, I really like my Farberware Yosemite pot and its chintzy plastic dome was no longer serviceable. So, I ordered 3 of these tops (a lifetime supply, I thought) along with something else from the same merchant to cut per-unit shipping costs. The first of these shattered in mid-perk the first time I used it! Maybe the remaining two will last longer. (Or, maybe I'll die young.)The directions say, "DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN" Apparently, "tight enough to stay on" is too much. If they put a penny's worth more glass in these things, they'd be fine.

glass percolator top
By A. Zaragosa
I bought a stainless steel stove top percolator that had a plastic top that was impossible to keep on tight. I replaced it with one of these glass tops and the problem was solved.
