Having broken my porcelain teapot, I went in search of a more modern successor and let myself be tempted by it. 100% positive balance: - It is light - It easily holds up to 4 large well filled mugs - Tea is confined in the brewing compartment and does not escape (go ... some micro-dust in the end we had to nitpick) - The handle allows to walk the hot tea without burning - Everything is removable and easy to clean - And the piston, of course, life-changing, allowing good control brewing time according to the type of tea and taste.
In short, a real must. It is true that the holes do not descend to the bottom of the filter, but it's a little principle: otherwise the infusion could not be stopped. A book so for at least two cups. As for me, when I am under a cup, I use a infusette and not a teapot, so it is not a real downside.
