(More customer reviews)First the good: This teapot is absolutely gorgeous. Nice size for one, although its 20 oz capacity means that I have to rethink my usual dose of tea (I'm used to making tea in 16 oz increments and now will have to recalculate how many leaves to use).
And I love being able to watch the tea change color as it brews. Will be even more fun should I ever decide to indulge in a tea blossom.
Now the less good:
1) Seems fragile, but then, you know, glass and all. Seems like it would be. Hard to fault it for that.
2) Infuser lets leaves through into the main pot, so even after taking the infuser out to pour you will either have to deal with a few leaves in your tea or pour through a mesh sieve to catch the leaves (I used an old, fairly large tea ball that I had languishing in a drawer from my pre-tea pot days). The glass infuser is far prettier than a mesh one would be, so the trade off here is appearance vs. function. I am satisfied with my workaround, but wanted others to know, in case a few leaves in the pot/cup/using a mesh sieve when pouring would be a bother for them.
3) Plus, glass by its nature doesn't keep things warm. Which means that my cup of white tea was the perfect temperature for drinking immediately on pouring. This is great for me, but if you don't want to drink the tea right away, you'll need to pour it into something that will keep it hot for a while rather than leave it in the pot.
