French Press is by far my preferred method, but I do have a Bialetti espresso every now and then. I have a Bodum press and when the plastic nut that holds the filter in place broke off, I contacted Bodum and they sent me a new metal one. A much better deal than buying a whole new one. Bodum sells replacement filters if yours ever gets mangled beyond recognition. Of course, press gently enough and the filter should last a while. I don't usually wash the metal parts off with soap; I feel like it seasons the press a bit to just rinse it off with water after every use.
