I have read in previous reviews that this jug is only a short period of keeping warm drinks, I can not confirm this absolutely. I use this pot in the office for tea, which I cook myself in the morning and the tea is still hot after 6 hours. In the directions is in hot drinks the jug should be previously warmed with hot water, and this really works. I especially appreciate also the large opening, so you can wash very well the pot also. Secondly, I really like that there is no glass cylinder in the pot is. Several other pitchers with glass cylinder I have "wrecked" while brushing with the brush. That can not happen here. I would buy the jug anytime.
