Cute but drippy…,
While this tea pot is a beautiful cobalt color, when pouring tea the spout does not maintain a continuous stream…hence it “leaks” onto the side of the pot (and elsewhere). It doesn’t all hit the cup unless one is very careful. Poor design but a lovely little pot.

Le Disappointment,
I purchased one of these from a local vendor some time ago and ended up not using it much because it drips and dribbles big time when pouring. It takes practice to get this thing to pour without dripping, but it’s never easy even so, and the big splash cannot be entirely avoided. The spout simply needs a redesign.
It’s a shame because otherwise this teapot has a lot going for it. It’s very nicely made, it keeps tea warm for a long time (comparing favorably with some cast iron teapots/tetsubin), and if you can’t get along with the infuser, there are superior ones which fit this teapot beautifully. I gave this teapot away, after replacing it with a similarly sized one that behaves itself while filling cups. I recommend passing on this one, there are many better performing teapots to choose from.

useless product,
This teapot looks nice but is so poorly designed as to be entirely useless. It is impossible to pour any liquid without it running down the outside of the spout and making a mess. I’m currently using it as a flower pot.
