Have decided to use this ALFI pot, as the name speaks for itself. Alfi is known for quality and timeless design. Since this jug was in the moderate price range in the lower class and currently I did not want above ground on a budget, I have decided for this Bono jug of Alfi. Their appearance impresses with timeless elegance and is really easy to use with one hand. The capacity is sufficient for a large coffee pot coffee maker. Unfortunately, I realized very soon that the heating of the pot that promises not what I expect from a good heat-insulated vessel. You do not last as long very good warm, as it should be. I have a cheap pot very well keeps the heat much longer. Also the lid closure does not interfere as well with the screw. He often slips by and you have this frequently re-screwing. Bit unwieldy. This is better even with some cheaper pitchers. My Conclusion: For the price Alfi would do anything else on this isolation and improve the fitting on the closure. Design and operation of single-handed operation are pointed.
