Plus points:
- High-quality workmanship and appearance
- Dishwasher safe
- Be completely dismantled for easy cleaning
- Filter connects to the can wall from good, so very little powder in the coffee cup lands
- Sufficient warming time (depending on load capacity just over 30 minutes)
- Good value for money
Bad points:
- No maintenance or operating instructions by the manufacturer enclosed
- Nasty noise when punches as metal rubbing against metal (maybe leaves with the aftermath?)
- A certain metallic taste of coffee (there was in the glass jug never)
- Thanks to the glossy surface can you see water stains and fingerprints
Conclusion:
Very good pitcher who would actually deserves 5 stars because of the function, processing and optics, however, the metallic taste of coffee spoils the enjoyment of coffee. Therefore only 4 stars from me.

Addendum of 04/07/2014:
After a few days with several daily use of metallic taste has subsided quickly. The cleaning in the dishwasher without any problems. Now I forgive the full 5 stars for a thoroughly successful pitcher!
