Covered a stainless steel pot would fit well to my stainless steel stove ... but the pot is crap. The glass is made by Schott and sits loosely in the unloving welded stainless steel enclosure. For example, the handle at me staggered welded so that there is a tendency during casting to spill something collapses obliquely over the pouring rim. In addition, the open steel ring around the pitcher now by the wrong welded handle asymmetrically.
Hardness is but the lid with the tea strainer ... have poured tea into the strainer and connected to the top but what a total loose matter is ... there is no stop or even a thread ... If you turn too far it falls out again.
Water pure ... pure ... strainer floats already the first tea in the water ... the holes are too big ... well ... let ... will go with the ball at the top of the strainer out of the water cover ... just pull out to the side flaps and even the screen is locked under the cover ... class ... if the ball does not have even 100 ° C ...
The second tea I came up with the brilliant idea at the ball to turn to better flow around the tea from the water ... heavy Inert sieve + turning the ball = sieve separates from loose wobbly lid and falls completely in the tea ... since the lid is in the closet ... and I regret that I have not bought back the 7 Euro Boral pot with plastic handle but I have the stainless steel be blinded.
Incidentally, if the pot too much tilting the glass falling from the crappy Edelstahlumfassung ... bad buy high 10 ...
