I have long been looking for a simple teapot that has a little geschwungende lines and a large volume capacity has. Since this teapot was just right. The reviews have then strengthened me in my purchase. The delivery arrived (as always with Amazon) super duper fast. I have cleaned the jug on the same day and tried. It fit into 1200 ml. The thickness reached to invite to a lovely tea party. :-) When pouring the pitcher dripping although not always running after pouring a drop down outside. But that does not bother me really, because the can anyway always stands on a warmer. I would buy this teapot again. (Have I already made. Two cans are better than one. ;-))
