After the pot to less use unfortunately is already broken, I can only advise against the purchase unfortunately! Bin until now unfortunately have not gotten to write a recession. The set is a real eye-catcher, and visually there's absolutely nothing to complain about, the wire inside is also very stable, and is of me, even with use, though not for this pot. The pot is unfortunately made of a very thin glass, which left precious looks but is totally impractical because it is therefore very easy breaks. In my pot, the spout is broken because I am slightly chipped on the teacup, and immediately created a plan. The annoying thing is that I have the pot specially not cleared in the dishwasher and I have really so beware nothing to break anything! The stash below is now rather a bit impractical, thus that you can take off the upper part, it is in my teapot has often happened that the cover of Stöffchens at the Teapot "glued" was. What a bit stupid because it is indeed a great idea! In fact for that price I would have expected a bit more! I have now bought a cheaper, which is optically not so nice though, but I've also been a year, despite some incidents. (Like a case on the kitchen carpet, and in the dishwasher must also !!)
