Teabloom Kyoto 2-in-1 Tea Kettle and Tea Maker – Glass Teapot with Removable Loose Tea Infuser – Tea Connoisseur's Choice

Borosilicate glass of this quality is totally safe to use on any metal or glass stove top as long as you don't slam it down like you might if you were using a metal pot. I've had Borosilicate glass cooking pots last for many years. They generally fail if someone drops a cast iron pan on them or accidentally smacks them on the side > like when sliding a cast iron pan sideways on the stove top into the side of the Borosilicate cooking pot. Common sense dictates the use of one or the other - NOT BOTH IN CLOSE PROXIMITY :) I read a review where someone was disappointed in how small this pot is. 'Small' is a relative term. It all depends on what you need the pot for. I use a small pot like this to hold near boiling water (from the stove top or Microwave) which I then add to tea that has steeped (brewed) for awhile in another pot. I pour the brewed and occasionally pretty strong tea into a tea cup thru a strainer and then dilute it with the hot water from another pot (like this one). That's a pretty ancient and standard practice. So 'small' in this case is 'perfect'. I just tried this little pot out on the gas range and it boiled water like a charm. MY problem with it >>> and this is NOT the exactly a 'fault' of the POT's design altho I do have an issue with it's shape... ... my problem is that I don't have a silicone heating pad or otherwise tacky grip for the handle. The handle got hot but not burning hot (I heated the water over a simmer burner and kept the handle out of the fire :) The only potholder I had handy was crocheted cotton and it kept slipping, so I fumbled a bit. Trying to hold the pot in one hand with the thing slipping in my potholder while trying to hold the lid on while pouring was awkward. Next time the lid comes off before I pour and I will use a silicone pot holder. The use of the pot holders is a must... but like I said, that's not the failure of this little pot. I feel compelled to mention the term 'Cup' here. One needs to understand Dry weight Oz in a Dry Cup measure vs Water weight Oz in a liquid measure. Think coffee shop cups and you'll get it. The US standard wet cup oz measure is about 8oz I think. Then comes the 12 oz. This pot holds 24 oz. SO... you can make 4 ' cups' tea, 2 'cups' of tea etc. To conclude: PRO: Very strong high quality Borosilicate Glass. Is lovely in it's shape. Holds & definitely boils 24 oz water on a gas range. IT POURS with NO Drips. CON: The 'squarish' - slightly rectangular handle is hard to hold because unlike the conventional round-curved handle it's hard to grip without a silicon or otherwise tacky pot holder and the lid needs to be held on while pouring. On the whole I am very happy with this little pot.

I really compared SO many teapots and took a LONG time to choose one. This was my choice after much deliberation AND review-reading. I couldn't be more happy with this teapot! The "squatty", more Japanese styling of the pot allows the infuser to reach nearly all the way to the bottom of the pot, making the most of your brewing time and your tea. Made of borosilicate glass, you're going to think it's too delicate to use, but let me tell you, it's plenty tough! It's also a much healthier option in teapot materials. The infuser is large, a thin but sturdy stainless steel with the absolute tiniest pin-sized holes, allowing full flow of water and plenty of space for the tea leaves to fully expand, giving you the most flavor possible. I read negatives from a few reviews regarding the shape of the handle, that it wasn't ergonomically friendly for pouring. That is hogwash. I ordered the largest size of these Kyoto pots, 36 oz, and the handle is plenty large enough and appropriately shaped to pick up and pour from this teapot. I also read other review that were negative about the spout, saying that it dripped. More hogwash. This doesn't drip any more than any other spout in the world; I haven't seen it drip on my counter yet. This can be used on the stovetop to boil your water, as well, but I have an electric quick-boil kettle (another Amazon purchase -- look for my review!), so I have no need for this feature. But if I could give this TEN stars, I would. Why? In addition to the above reasons, let me tell you... this teapot doesn't just brew your tea. This teapot makes your morning tea, your afternoon tea, and your evening tea all feel like a special treat. Like something special that you are doing for yourself today. SOMETHING in your day should feel like that! Let it be this teapot! I should note: in the photo, you will see this teapot on top of a tea warmer which is NOT INCLUDED with this purchase (it is also available on Amazon; I purchased my warmer from Teabloom). The tin of tea in the photo is also NOT INCLUDED in this purchase. Only the teapot is.

tea pot works and is pretty good. It is more durable than I thought it would be given its delicate look.. Does enough for a good bit of tea. Holds temp like glass normally does. The only two downsides I can say about this is you have to push down on the front of the lid otherwise you will risk getting tea leaves and herbs into your drink. and the handle is a bit hard to hold on to, being made of glass I suppose, so it slips out and you have to use your hand to apply pressure the main body of the tea pot, which sadly is still very hot after you put boiling water into it, So you get a little pain with your drink

Elle a rendu service quelques mois et puis le fond s'est fissuré... étonnant...

Top. Jolie design. Je me suis tourné vers cet article car je voulais une théière d'une contenance d'au moins un litre et qui passe dans mon frigo en terme de hauteur pour faire des thés glacés. Celle ci est toute en verre ce qui me plaît. Le couvercle également est en verre. La finition est impeccable. Le filtre est de bonne qualité et ne laisse pas passer de feuilles (déjà trois essaies avec des thés différents et aucun problème). Je recommande fortement

Ürün çok estetik ve kullanışlı. Camı çok ince ama dikkat edin..

A perfect little 2 cup teapot for real tea , not that stuff in plastic bags....aha ! you thought they were paper didn't you. The infuser is nice and wide and has such tiny holes that even the smallest leaves stay inside it and yet allow full flow of water to brew your chosen desire. A true no drip spout and very easy to wash. You can even heat it on your inducty thingy if you wish. Don't tell the vicar though will you sweetie. Mwah.

Nachdem meine 40 Jahre alte Kanne zerbrochen ist (wer eine umfunktionierte Kaffeekanne) hab ich hier bei Amazon diesen schönen Teezubereiter gefunden. Habe vorher meinen Schwarztee lose mit 2 Kannen und einem Sieb zubereitet. Die Teeblätter brauchen schliesslich Platz zum Entfalten des Aromas - p.s. trinke seit Jahren ausschliesslich Assam Tees. Habe heute zum ersten Mal diesen Teapot ausprobiert. Vor allem das hitzebeständige Borsalitglas begeistert mich, da ich die Teekanne auf der Herdplatte stehenlasse. Auch die Möglichkeit, den Tee auf der Herdplatte aufzukochen, finde ich gut - und ich kann die Kanne zum Aufwärmen in die Mikrowelle stellen - sehr praktisch, da ich mir eine Kanne mit ca. 800 ml über 2 bis 3 Stunden aufteile. Das herausnehmbare Sieb ist sehr feinporig und gibt dem Tee ausserdem genügend Platz zum Entfalten des Aromas. Trinke seit fast 40 Jahren Schwarztee und gehöre damit zu denjenigen, die noch gerne ein paar Teeblätter mitessen, daher kommen bei mir nach der Entnahme des Siebs noch ca. ein halber Teelöffel Blätter in die Kanne. Das einzigste, was ich zu bemängeln hätte, ist der Deckel: Ist ein bisschen wackelig und aus ziemlich dünnen Material. Man muss ihn beim Eingiessen festhalten, damit er nicht rausfällt - ist mir aber keinen Abzug bei der Bewertung wert. Und immerhin ist das Borsalitglas bis 500 °C hitzebeständig und schadstofffrei. Übrigens klappt das Ausgiessen bei mir tropffrei - ehrlich. Kann diese Kanne allen Teetrinkern empfehlen, die ihren Schwarztee auf die klassische Art zubereiten und geniessen.
