Beautiful and cleverly designed teapot in every way - except the handle could be bigger.
This is a truly beautiful teapot - with a gorgeous glossy teal colour glaze, and the generous spout pours like a dream.The clever clip-in integral but easily removable tea-leaf container is a boon for real tea lovers, making it easy to unclip, take out and clean, and therefore also to compost the tea leaves afterwards.The lid has a clever design which makes it impossible for it to fall off while pouring, so no holding the kid’s knob needed just in case. The only downside to the design is that the handle is a little bit small for a 4-mug teapot which does get heavy when full, and which therefore needs a handle you can get your whole hand through, whereas this one only just allows three average-sized fingers with a thumb opposing on top for balance, introducing the risk of slippage (especially as it’s so shiny too). You get used to it, but given the superb overall design, this is just a little frustrating as you have to be careful to really grip it every time so as not to drop it. Even so, I wouldn’t swap it for anything as the shape of the pot and spout is so plump and lovable! It’s a 9/10 for the London Pottery Company from me.

Best teapot I ever bought
I just got this (have used it once) so can't address longevity, durability, etc. I have to say I love it. I didn't realise how much I'd got used to the comparatively timid/tainted taste of a teabag cup and am really enjoying loose leaf tea again. Will still use teabags when not at home but the taste, even of the best bags, really is a pale imitation.The pot itself is aesthetically pleasing. The colour does thin at the edges around the lid opening, handle, and spout but not in a way that looks even slightly shabby and the appearance of the pot is top notch. The look and feel are both somehow just satisfying.The 1.5L capacity gives 3 large mugsful per pot which is perfect for me. The infuser insert could be a tighter fit imo and moves around just a tad loosely but this is a very minor quibble. The infuser does a great job of infusing and produces splendidly tidy tea with zero mess. I had to look closely to notice that the indentation on the interior of the lid fits around the infuser to hold the two together snugly, thus keeping the lid in place.A great upgrade on my previous, now unfortunately (?) broken, infuserless pot in terms of quality and quantity. Am delighted with this!

Proper teapot
Fabulous teapot! No mess- no drips from the spout. Quality product. Exactly what a teapot should be!

Great pot
Bought the 6 cup pot, glad I did. If we fill to the brim, we get four mugs, which is what I wanted. It’s a pottery pot, so nothing elegant, but I am pleased with the classic look and quality. The chrome infuser sits inside the pot, clipping into the opening with a little lever. It is smart, easy to remove, makes a good brew. I wouldn’t use the pot without the infuser in place, as that leaves the lid loose and might fall out when pouring. It pours well, only dribbles if you tip too far forwards. It is a bit heavy when full, but not unmanageable

Good quality
I ordered this because have gone back to loose tea. It's a nice size got a tealeaf strainer inside nothing escapes. I made a cosey to keep it hot. Very happy.

Holds 1.2 litres.
Holds 4 mugs easily with a bit to spare.Excellent design . Fantastic colour.We broke the handle on our last one and struggled to find the right size pot for our 2 person household. We tend to drink to mugs full each brew. This is perfect

Perfect
Bought the 6 cup size teapot in white the lid has a slight cut out to allow fitting inline with the defuser (strainer) which is great, it is quite heavy but thats only to be expected as it is ceramic plus when full with water. Makes a great cup of tea.

The lid is difficult to get off
I think the teapot is really nice however the lid is really tricky to get off. The notch on the inside of the lid is very tight on the strainer and I feel like the ball on the lid is about to rip off when I try to take the lid off. I understand there’s a slight angle to remove it at but this tilts the strainer out with it and makes it even more tricky. Other than that, nice teapot!

Makes a lot of tea. Beautiful teapot.
If you only brew for yourself there are small versions of this. I brew morning tea for 5 folks. The inside tea infuser works really well. Great traditional teapot look.

Does not drip
Nice teapot, can use loose tea or not. Did not drip on linens. I want to buy more colors, would recommend this product

Lid gets stuck
I had this same teapot before but it broke so ordered a new one. The lid on this one sticks so bad, like to the point that I can’t even use the lid for fear that either it won’t come off or I’ll crack it trying to pry it off. So disappointing because I absolutely loved my previous one like this.

Lovely - Just what I wanted!
I looked all over the Internet for the perfect teapot, but none of the designs were really tickling my fancy (and budget). So I decided to look for the absolute plainest teapot that seemed to be a good value. This matte black teapot fit the bill. I've only used it once, but so far, I'm very pleased.First of all, it is absolutely beautiful in its simplicity and build quality. It is the perfect size for one or two tea drinkers and holds a bit more than its diminutive size would suggest. I'm actually glad I didn't go for a larger size because it holds as much as my much-larger-looking stovetop kettle, for whatever reason. But I will definitely look for this brand if I ever want to buy a larger teapot.It arrived (in perfect condition) much sooner than estimated from the UK to the US, so that's another plus as well, as I was very excited to receive it. Just in time for when a woman would really like some tea, if you catch my drift. 😉The teapot was probably made in China, too lazy to check right now, but it definitely doesn't look, feel, or especially smell like that Alibaba crap that plagues Amazon listings these days. So if you're looking for an affordable, simple, and practical teapot, look no further!
