After a month the lid broke from doing nothing but rinsing it…..but read my update!!!,
Pay heed to the one-star review. I was just rinsing the lid off with lukewarm water and it cracked and broke. The lid had sat and cooled to room temperature before I rinsed it. It was never dropped or mishandled in any way. Very strange. Grosche offers a replacement lid and infuser set but Amazon doesn’t offer it for sale!!!! It really kinda sucks too because this is a great tea pot otherwise.
Sept 17 2010 UPDATE!!!!
When this originally happened I emailed the company and they said the infuser/lid replacements were out of stock and they would be available in a few weeks on Amazon (which they now are). However, last week I received an email from thier customer service saying that for being so patient they were going to send me a new infuser/lid at NO CHARGE!!! I got it in the mail today. Awesome!!! Awesome!!! Awesome!!! Thanks Grosche! This product is now FIVE STARS all the way!!!

Great Tea Pot,
This teapot did everything I needed it to do. I didn’t want a tea kettle to heat the water then and then I would have to pour it in a teapot w/infuser to steep (felt redundant). I wanted the a teapot/kettle to do it all and this fit the bill. While the box does not say anything about being stovetop safe, it is indeed ok to heat on the stove (medium flame).
The infuser works great, and was perfect for serving a pot of tea. However, the only downfall is if you are clumsy with a glass teapot.

Grosche Glasgow Teapot,
This lovely teapot is exactly what I envisioned the ideal glass teapot would be. It scores highly on all the features I was looking for: quality, practicality, functionality and beauty. So often something that is aesthetically pleasing does not deliver, but this teapot definitely delivers on its promise and more. One of the ways I enjoy using it most is to steep fresh herbs: place fresh herbs (e.g., mint, tarragon, etc.) into the infuser, pour hot water into the infuser, and let steep for a few minutes. This teapot elevates the tea drinking experience! I highly recommend the Glasgow teapot and would not hesitate to purchase any of the other products offered by this manufacturer.
