 Sunbeam Hot Tea Maker July 8, 2008
Carl L. Negley
This is a relatively inexpensive, well made, well functioning hot tea maker that has an adjustment for tea strength in the brewing process. It does, however lack one imortant and convient feature. It cannnot be pre- set to brew at a set time as most coffee makers. Nevertheless, it makes good tea, is reliable and, and inexpensively priced.
Great with fine cut loose tea June 22, 2008
John A. Kantor (St. Petersburg, FL United States)
The Sunbeam works great with fine cut loose tea. I drink six cups a day and I like it strong - so I use it on the strongest setting, but it's never bitter like it is if you oversteep it. Coarse cut tea requires more steeping time. I use Twinings fine cut Irish Breakfast tea - 1/2 teaspoon in each side. It will work with coarse tea, but you have to use twice as much for the same effect. And it does boil the water - that's how the water makes it up the tube to the top - just like in a drip coffeemaker, but it's slightly below boiling temperature when it drips through.
The only "problem" is that it gets very dirty with the amount I drink, but it's easy to take apart to clean.
Hot Tea vs. Coffee June 18, 2008
K. Carlson (Wilmette, IL United States)
I really like this product overall. I bought it for work so that I could kick the coffee habit with lots of the fake creamer in lieu of Green Tea with Honey. A much healthier alternative. One problem I had with it was the pot design and the water tank. I always end up spilling the water in order to pour it all in the reservoir. It makes delicious tea but I haven't totally kicked the coffee yet.

I just received this teapot a couple weeks ago. It is easy to use and to clean up. One thing I noticed though was some of tea leaking down where it shouldnt be. I then realized that the filters holding the tea needed to be seated more firmly by pulling down on the flaps at the front of them and then there is a definite click. Either the instructions did not emphasize this or I somehow missed it. I am not a "tea perfectionist" and found this product to be a good solution to making a couple of cups without the mess of replacing teabags into a 2nd cup.

What a nice product. It was delivered as promised.
The only comment I would have is the web based description did not do the product justice.
