The pot itself is absolutely gorgeous: Looks great, touches his good and is processed very neat. There are two covers, one the one hand the typical rocker stopper and a "normal". Both maintain close and warm, the heat is kept shorter the tip seal. When using the normal rolltop is with me after about 24 almost boiling water still pleasant to drink warm. When tilting cap I can not fix exactly, but much shorter. Several hours are certainly no problem and it saves the turning shop. The pot itself gets in any case, five stars!
The strainer on the other hand is simply a disaster, the manifestation of functional inadequacy. You should still make sure that there are two different variants of the screen bad: The existing here at the time of review picture shows the first version (bottom flattened) that will be hard to get reasonably clean. The newer version is equipped with a round bottom and perforated metal hemisphere, but also can not solve the core problem: the cleaning!
Even if that's the repaired version of this tea strainer Stelton, it remains problematic a full strainer to drain. By default, in the (grand) to fit Steltonkannen, the screen is very narrow and long. Filled and covered with tea, is that after drawing is very difficult (and connected to mess) to figure out from the screen. In addition aggravating that the handle that allows you to pull out the wire down / inside (!) Is arched. FAIL!
As part of an attractively priced Setangebots - the normal price of a Steltonkanne - you can take it with you "so" - a charge this thing is clearly not worth it. Let alone a single purchase. The storage concept in their own container outside the pot is good, but does not weigh the substantial shortcomings in the approach.
It is fascinating to see that even from other established companies products are brought to market, which simply are no good and practical tests apparently only know from hearsay. Too bad, but the screen was nothing!
Who wants to try it yet, a chopstick should lay ready. So I can herauspulen the tea, otherwise helps even running water.
On the can itself I let nothing would come and buy me this again anytime. She alone is worth a recommendation!
