Winco Gooseneck Teapot, 32-Ounce,Stainless Steel,Medium

I got this for making pour-over coffee rather than one of the overpriced gooseneck kettles designed for pour-over coffee. It works great with a 01 or 02 Hario dripper (or similar product). As many have said, the quality is not the greatest, but for the price of a Hario or one of the other gooseneck kettles, you can buy a half dozen of these. I have two, and they both work fine. I don't use this kettle to heat the water, I only use it to pour water over a Hario dripper. The optimum pour-over temp is between 180 and 200 degrees (F), so boiling the water in another vessel and transferring it to this one puts the temp just right. I find I have more control over the pour with this little teapot than I do with those designed by Hario and/or Bonavita (for example). And if I happen to destroy it on a camping trip or similar activity, it's inexpensive to replace. You mileage may vary, but I am very pleased with it for what I used it for.

It's such a cute little teapot and it has gotten a lot of use from me. It's sturdy and I see it lasting a long time. The "leaking" that people note isn't from a defect, it's from hot liquid steaming inside of it and creating condensation, which would happen in any container with a lid that can hold hot liquid. It's perfect for tea, which is what I use it for. Since it's metal, it keeps your tea hot for a very long time. It's simple, cute, and it just works!

For the price, this is a nice tea pot. I got this after using similar tea pots in Japanese/Chinese restaurants. This one is basically the same which is great. It's a little larger than the ones in the restaurants but that's not a complaint. The only negative I have to mention is the lid doesn't close well. It doesn't stay shut...almost like the weld attaching the lid to the pot is too low on the pot causing the lid to stay lifted up a tad. I had read this on previous reviews but took a chance. Since the lid doesn't stay shut, any condensation the lid collects while you are using it will spill down the front of the pot and on to the table when you pour your tea. Makes a little mess but not horrible. Just keep a napkin around! Even though the lid doesn't close well, the tea still stays nice and hot. I am happy enough not to return this product but wished the lid fit better. Overall...pretty happy!

Love my little teapot! It is the perfect size that I was searching for. I use it almost everyday for Moroccan green tea and mint. It is easy to clean, and even after almost a year it is still shiny as new.

Can only be filled half way or it leaks when pouring. Nice, but not what I was hoping for. At best it holds one or one and a half cups of liquid before it drips a lot. Would not give as a gift.

I expected to have a nice little teapot just like the kind at the restaurants. What arrived looked nice until I looked inside. Whatever method they used to weld the handle onto this teapot had burnt through all of the stainless finish and caused a small spot of corrosion at the base of the handle. No prob right cause its just a teapot and who cares if there is a tiny rust spot in your tea? Well just for kicks I filled the pot up with cold water to see if it would "hold water". It did not. It had a slow and steady drip leak from the base of the handle that produced about one drop per second. I have returned this product, where refund was the only option, and have already purchased a different teapot by Frieling USA from Amazon.com. Yes it cost four times as much as the first one. Yes I am OK with that. I wanted a frigging cup of tea already, throw me a friggin bone here people! Now I am waiting for another teapot and have to wait up to four weeks for a refund. You get what you pay for... If you want an $11.00 teapot that doesn't work from day one then buy this product. If you want a teapot that you can actually brew tea in and drink from then look somewhere else. I strongly advise anyone considering this purchase to definitely not buy this teapot. Don't do it, you will regret it, and you will have to live with the fact that I told you so.

I wanted a tea pot that could hold several cups of tea and that I would never have to worry about chipping. This pot fits the bill, plus the handle is a very comfortable shape and while the hinge to flip the lid open to fill the pot might seem like a minor detail, it's a handy detail. Plus you can't beat the price! If you are a klutz like me, I suggest you make sure you have a pot holder to put between your hand and the front of the pot if you need a two hand grip to pour gracefully. Thus I finally have a legitimate reason to knit a tea cozy :P

I can boil water in it! That's all I wanted, and mission accomplished. No defects, sits on my electric range burner fine no leaking or dribbling when I pour. Yes, it is flimsy, lid (attached) wanders side to side a little, and both lid and handle get hot - but I would expect all of those things. And it looks a lot nicer than boiling water in a saucepan. Functions well, costs very little.

جيد لكن خيف الوزن

Es pequeña pero práctica, muy bonita.

Great looking teapot and it has a nonconductive wooden handle so it remains cool, my only problem for my uses is that it was a tiny bit small for my needs.

Es perfecta para calentar agua o leche!

This is a good teapot, although it seems a little brittle. It's good if you want to make only 2, possibly 3 cups of tea. If you're looking for more than that, then this is not for you.
