My problem ,I think, is not the part that you press the cup against. It is the part the pushes that link. It has a spring assembly. But it also has a hole on top, that looks like a screw may have been there. The spout hangs down and doesn't link. I also found a rubber washer that was squished into the filter that has an imprint of the white presser on one side. Tried gluing, but that didn't work. This is my third one. But I don't see others like it for less than $70. Ideas welcome for repairing.
