SweeseTeapot, Porcelain Tea Pot with Stainless Steel Infuser, Blooming & Loose Leaf Teapot - 27ounce, Lilac

I love this teapot! It’s just the right size (3 cups); not too big, not too small. Also it’s not too heavy like the cast iron teapots; yet it’s sturdy. It has a great infuser with lots of tiny holes that gives great flavor without any leaves in your cup. Heat retention is great because the lid fits very well. It’s easy to pour and clean. The design is simple but beautiful and has a great color. I highly recommend it.

Perfect little teapot. The other reviews are true in that the lid needs the basket inside to stay on well. Not as big a deal for us, though. We just leave it in!

Love this teapot with built in infuser. Perfect for my favorite loose leaf tea. Very well made and it pours great with no spilling. Highly recommend.

Nice little pot. I agree the top doesnt sit tightly on the pot but I always hold the top when I pour using my Brown Betty or my China pot anyway. So its no biggy but I did deduct a star because of the loose fit.

Ideal for 3 cups. Easy to handle, is cute and the price is fair.

The right size for my use and easy to clean.

The mint green color is rich looking. I love the size of this pot and the handle. The chrome basket snaps into place inside the pot. The lid locks into place inside the basket. The porcelain finish is flawless. I just love this pot and wish I found this sooner.

The media could not be loaded. I've had this teapot for a couple of years and use it a few times a week. It's cute, has a flawless porcelain finish, and is evenly weighted for pouring with a comfortable handle. Generally, I use loose leaf tea instead of tea bags. The stainless steel strainer basket is a little flimsy - I have others that are made of thicker steel - but the mesh is fine enough to catch most of the leaves (like most strainers, a smattering of the finest dust collects at the bottom of the pot).But this pot has a couple of dingbat design features that are finally causing me to shop for another:1) Jiggly freakin' lid. When the infuser basket is removed, the lid moves around when the teapot is inverted to pour. (See the lovely video I've provided.) Not only is this jarring, its DANGEROUS. When the pot is full, the scalding tea can come pouring out of the top of the pot and cascade on you and whatever is under it. I burned myself because of this when I first started using the pot. Either use a tea towel to hold tge pot carefully, including holding the lid down tightly, while pouring. Or, just buy a better pot already.2) Darn drips and dribbles. This thing does not pour smoothly or steadily. The tea comes out in a jagged shoot of liquid that's too fast and sometimes spits little droplets elsewhere. It's difficult to control the flow despite the angle at which one tilts the pot while pouring. Then, the pot dribbles tea when it is lifted up, making a mess that needs mopping. A quality teapot will pour tea in a smooth, sinuous line of liquid that is a beauty to behold without extra drips, and the speed of the pour can be controlled easily. This teapot is *ahem* clearly not quality.Summary: avoid.
