Unfortunately, I was wrong here.
The pot was delivered to me as a prime customer, as always within 24 hours. Truly a service I do not want to miss.
It was securely packaged and shipped in the extra-Alfi carton and the first impression was positive, although the handle is used to and something unmanageable.
Unfortunately, the first positive impression was marred immediately because the pot is made in China. I thought very sad for the company Alfi.
Actually, it has also not always be bad, if it is not just these and you pay only the name, but this probably is the case here for a cheap import.
When I first filled times with hot water the pot and have closed with the screw cap to clean them, I immediately noticed that the entire neck including Can spout was hot. Not warm, no hot. Not good, I thought. How can it be that the heat, despite double stainless steel insulation, leak outside. Unfortunately, confirmed my fears and in my test with boiling water, the heat loss was enormous in the first two hours.
Although I previously rinsed the pot with hot water and. With the max Had filled amount of water, the water after 2 hours only 75 ° C was hot. The filling temperature was 95 ° C. According to the attached diagram of Alfi, the temperature between 90 and 85 ° C should move. Here, I then stopped the test because you can imagine if the pot now empties something and a cup of coffee is pouring the heat loss through the cavity in the next few hours to go faster by equip.
It is also strange that is pointed on the packaging expressly states that the pot was sealed and 100% leak-proof, but at the bottom of the pot, a drawing was engraved that the pot must not be transported lying down because it runs out otherwise.
Therefore, the pot went back and my search for a new thermos continues.
