The pot is pretty hard because double-walled steel VA. Handle does not protrude, and is very good (my reason against the Cilio jug) Unfortunately, however, turned out to be the "stainless steel screen" as a stainless steel "screen door" pressed beyond repair in a plastic star. The seal on the can wall concerned a very crack Endangered silicone seal. Instead of a spring ring, as in the other cans. Apparently begin USEFUL and durable pitchers at 60 euros .. Schade- nice try, but when the pot was saved at the wrong end. Note: Never buy a coffee pot without a picture of the inner life. Since the return is not done by the label, it's too much effort, and I'll keep as Kanne- without Stampfer
