Cast Iron Diamond Teapot

We love that this teapot keeps a pot of tea hot without any wifi gimmicks or electricity as we linger over dinner and dessert. This is the perfect gift for hot tea drinkers. It holds enough so one of us doesn’t have to keep reheating the tea! It’s unique looking and I leave it on stovetop all the time. I got the green outlined with gold and it’s really pretty. The handle stays cool and seems very stable. It’s a breeze to clean although you will need your narrow bottle or straw cleaning brush if you’re not good about cleaning it as you go. Great value given that I use it for hot tea delivery and a little piece of art in my kitchen (in that I leave it out all the time). Buy it. Gift it.

Great quality, adorable shape and color.! Love this and will buy more for gifts!

Purchased for a gift and they love it. It is a cute accent piece and works well. The smaller size is good if you only have one tea drinker in the house, otherwise go big!

Despite what this says, after some googling, I discovered you are only supposed to brew tea in here, not boil water. It says in the description that it is stovetop safe, but in the Engrish instructions, it vaguely hints this is not the best idea. A few searches lead me to the fact that if it has a different interior than the exterior, it is not all cast iron and not made for the stovetop.Cons:~The Diffuser is mesh junk. Literally looks like it'd only be good for straining spaghetti or catching stuff at the bottom of the sink after washing dishes. Tons of leaves got through. I have a real diffuser that I bought separately that I love, and I recommend buying ANYTHING else. It also has no handle or anything to remove the diffuser with, so that's another issue if you literally have nothing else. It'll work in a pinch if it's all you have, but please if you buy this, buy a diffuser with it!~ It tiny. It's cute and little and I love it for that, and I'll get about three cups of tea out of it for my 5ML cup. I wouldn't use it if you're wanting a huuge amount of tea, but it's great for a small serving.~has a weird smell when first running boiling water in itPros:~It's great for a small serving. Just pouring tea for myself, it has plenty.~It's neat. It's got a cool look and being all iron it's heavy and weighty and feels nice for the price.~It keeps your tea HOT. Like wow, it's super hot. I like that I don't have to rush to enjoy my tea.~The coloring seems even and even if it's not being used it'll look cool sitting somewhere.~It pours nicely, and doesn't seem to spill or threaten to drop the lid the moment you tilt it.~Could probably take out two or three people charging at you with it while you make tea.Overall it's nice. I just brewed my first pot of tea, and despite the horrible diffuser, (which is the reason for no five stars) it's a good teapot. I did as suggested in the instructions and what I found online, and poured boiling water in first, swished it around, and then poured it out and then made tea with new boiling water. There is a weird smell when you first boil water in it, almost familiar, kind of smells like a department store. Regardless, I'd suggest making sure to run a couple of boiling water flushes through it just to make sure you don't have to worry about anything. The tea tastes great, despite all the little tea leaves floating around inside.I'm pretty happy with it, of course I'll amend that if it insults my dog or melts from the inside out or something. But for the moment, it seems like a good tea brewer. Just be sure to heat the water elsewhere first, and I'm sure this'll last for quite some time. On opening, it seems neat, and dries quickly. I like it and currently would recommend it.

I love this teapot--I bought it because the cast-iron teapot I've been using for years is finally just too small to deal with my caffeine addiction. I haven't really measured the full capacity, but I fill it to about a quarter-inch from the lid and that ends up making roughly 1.5 liters (at least according to the measurement marks on my electric kettle, which I also haven't measured for veracity, so take that with a grain of salt I guess). I don't put my teapots on the stove to heat water in them, though the instructions indicate that you could if you felt brave enough. Instead, I pre-heat the pot by swishing a little bit of hot water around in it for a minute before pouring that out, measuring in my tea leaves, and pouring the boiling water over the top. It stays hot for a good bit by itself, but not really long enough for me to plow through a liter and a half of tea before it goes cold. But herein lies the beauty of a cast-iron pot: setting it on candle or some other kind of warmer (I have a cast iron candle-holder for this specific purpose, which came with my old teapot). With an outside heat source to keep it going, it stays hot for hours. Without, it's hot for around 30 to 40 minutes, so if you're making tea for two or more people that will probably be long enough to enjoy about a few cups apiece without it going lukewarm.The enamel interior is easy to clean (just swish some boiling water around in there and dump it, then dry it with a soft cloth to be on the safe side) and the design is absolutely beautiful. My only complaint is that it's hard to get the brew basket out of the teapot opening; it lays completely flush to the rim for the lid, and to save myself burning the hell out of my fingers I've started using the thinnest edge of a metal spoon to lever the basket up enough to get a grip on it. You could just leave it in until you've emptied the pot, if you're less of a wuss about over-steeped tea than I am.

This tea kettle is a lovely colour and style and steeps several very nice cups of tea !

This kettle is very beautiful looking. It may look small, but it holds a surprising amount of water. Due to it being cast iron, it retains head very well. Lifting the lid while the water is boiling is almost impossible without a glove and it is very hot. It is hard to tell when the water is completely boiling because there is not "whistle". You have to open it to check, or listen for the water boiling; when it is filled to the brim, the water will bubble out of the spout when it boils. I've been using it everyday for the past few weeks now and I do notice some wear on the finish. The inside is very durable, but the ball knob on the top of the lid is starting to develop rust. I always remember to wipe it down after as cast iron is prone to rusting, however, it is very difficult to wipe down where the knob connects.

Excelente artículo. Muy satisfecho , muy superior a lo esperado. Gracias

I am happy with the design and quality.

Hay muchos comentarios positivos y negativos, a mi me parece maravillosa, el vendedor me aclaro mis dudas antes de la compra, tengo ya varios meses usándola en parrilla de inducción y todo perfecto, pienso que compraré otra después, el agua permanece un rato caliente, y es preciosa.

tal cual como viene en la foto y descripción

Está muy bonito el diseño. Es muy funcional. Lo único malo es que sí se va despintando un poco.
