Kinto Stainless Unitea One Touch Teapot 720 Milliliter (24.35 Fl. Oz.) - Heat-Resistant Glass Teapot with Stainless Steel Strainer in Lid (Japan Import)

This is an under-rated product, in my opinion. To begin with, there are only about a dozen teapots on Amazon with this design. And the design itself is my favorite for tea. I've been making tea several times a day for 30 years, with the aim to have a great tasting loose leaf pot, while minimizing my workload. This has lasted my family a long time now. I have the Rishi teapot mugs as well, for comparison. And I have the both the small and large version of this teapot. I use these little teapots every single day, without exception, sometimes several times a day. They are sturdy and have not broken. The filter keeps all tea from escaping even the finer Irish breakfast types. The lid sometimes pops out while pouring, so I would hold it down with a finger as you allow the liquid to fully decant. But the lid is simpler and easier to clean compared to the rishi meshes. And the design looks simpler. Tea leaves always get caught at the spout, which is my least favorite feature. But then I just turn the lid a bit to find some open mesh; the mesh spans the entire circumference of the lid, which is extremely useful. Having a wide lid is also useful and efficient for dumping the tea. After using the tea leaves, I fill the pot with cool tap water and dump it into my garden. Great for all the plants. So far as looks, it's not bad. For beauty the fully glass teapots are prettiest, in my opinion. But they are not as practical for the rugged every day use in my family; two or more brews a day per person. this pot also doubles as a wonderful collection vessel for my V60 coffee pour-overs. The rounded bowl on the bottom is very pretty to show off tea and coffee.

Really great everyday teapot that can get a couple of mugs out of.

Ottima teira, costosa ma fattura perfetta. Minimal, guarnizione del tappo totalmente ermetica.

Good but lid doesn't fit properly

Tetera que brilla sobre todo por su estética, pero que tiene que mejorar algún aspecto de funcionalidad. Es muy bonito poder ver las hojas de té bailar con el agua, y al no tener canasta permite que se expandan todo lo necesario sin importar el tipo de hoja. El filtro no deja pasar nada, de modo que sale la infusión clara. Como punto negativo sería el enganche de la tapa, que funciona con una goma negra que viene mal colocada de fábrica, lo que hace que se caiga la tapa al inclinar la tetera. Yo descubrí gracias a otro comentario que hay que darle la vuelta a la goma (ponerla como en la foto de la caja) ya que no viene así. De esta manera la tapa queda mejor sujeta. PROS: - Muy bonita - Permite espacio para las hojas - El filtro retiene todos los trozos de hoja - Tamaño perfecto (para mí) CONS: - El problema de la goma comentado - Cuando va por la mitad, el té sale "a borbotones" y de manera no muy elegante. A nivel general, para mi los inconvenientes no superan los beneficios ya que son más bien pequeñas molestias más que problemas reales.
