This teapot is beautiful and a real eye-catcher! Unfortunately, there is little processing imperfections in the stainless steel handles (these should be priced independently absolutely smooth and not like here quirks have), the small error in the enamel I accept the individual character of Unikate- but there is a real Kostruktionsfehler, because I directly from Zwilling , the German sales, called: The Henkel can be folded down side to removing the cover and filling. The construction is getting voltage (probably so that the handle is not around schlackern) and the stainless steel grates unpleasantly loud and hard on the enamel. In fact, after operating enamel dust lay on the table (my first fear was that the enamel peeling off), now black iron dust after the enamel is completely scuffed at the contact points. The friendly woman on the phone at first twin was surprised at my demand, whether this is a design flaw or a general Verarbeitsfehler in my pot: a trial basis fetched pot with twin crunched through the handset even louder than my own home ... because We both laughed. On the one hand is so sleek design, and on the other a rustic who does not belong to a cozy tea party. Whoever serves the pot on a white tablecloth, should not be surprised about fine rust or Eisenspähne it. I will use my pot and when they badly rusted to the sample matic bodies or abgammelt, then she goes back to just guarantee ... so I see just that. If something is going on or changed in the use of pot, then I will add it here.
Addendum 03.01.2012: I do not use the jug like: the guests is the Quietschkanne already attracted negative attention. The Teebefüllung is also impractical because the cover is very large and conventional filter holder or 'Teesocken'damit not function. Instead, the in-house solution is proving with hinged lid in Teeei a flop: the attachment to the heavy lid is really fiddly and makes during hot, dripping TEEI on the chain is no fun. Unlike the Super Cocotte Casserole of kettle of dust is an impractical Designobjekt- Poor! Addendum 22.01.2012: Unfortunately, there is first rust spots on the can ... with pure cast iron normally without oiling possible but in enamel? The pot and lid have an inner and an Außenemaillierung. Both Beschichtungen- meet at the top edge at least in theory: what is perfectly finished with Cocotte, is here at the jug at the crossing point made sloppy and the bare cast iron can be seen in several places ... now clear from rust to recognize ( the cover also has a 'lip' that matches the can edge: there are the same rust problem on the vacancies that were not enamelled). In a teapot, which is filled with hot water a long time, that's just fatal and I want to lubricate the pot at the locations also non-tea and rapeseed oil just does not go together and why I buy because even an enameled product?
