Twelve cups easy, looks great!
I’ve been looking for an XL size teapot for a while and recently purchased a Denby Halo teapot but returned it as it could only manage 4 cups despite being called extra large, it was great quality though.I saw this London Pottery Extra Large and had a read of the reviews but there weren’t many for the extra large and hardly any photos. After taking the decision to purchase the teapot XL I wanted to share my review to help others in their decision.Firstly I’ve added a good number of photos to show the teapot and the number of mugs it can fill. Secondly, I can confirm that the XL teapot can easily fill 12 mugs of standard and large size. I thought it could perhaps manage 10 mugs but it just kept going.It’s also dribble and drip free which is an awesome bonus as the wife hates me dribbling everywhere..Things to be aware of;The teapot needs to be warmed first before being ready to receive kettle temperature boiling water, a minor thing but worth flagging as I’ve only had teapots I could put boiling water in straight away.The lid has a very specific angle that needs to be respected when inserting it and removing it, if not done correctly it can cause trouble.The weight when full of three litres of water could be a struggle to lift for some, usefully there is a finger lip to support liftingThis is the first week of ownership, if anything good or bad crops up I’ll update this review. So far so good and the fact it fills 12 mugs is perfect for us.

Very good cuppa!
I love this teapot! It makes a good cuppa and keeps the tea hot for a good half hour. I like my tea hot hot and if it cools down too quickly I can't drink it...this is perfect for me. Makes 3 good mugfulls. I love the rich brown colour and it pours really well. Great value for money.

Lovely teapot, but where's the strainer?
It's a very nice teapot, solid, nice lines, nicely boxed...but without the advertised strainer. Sigh.

Good Teapot.
Good sized, decent teapot.You can easily get 5/6 average sized mugs of tea out of it and it's easy to empty, if you use leaves and it poor well, no drips.It came well packaged, no damage.Very pleased and can recommend both item and seller.

Emergency replacement pot
Its great. I accidentally killed my farmhouse 6 cup pot, looked on Amazon, and fortuitously found the globe pot selling for £15. Sadly, the old diffuser doesn't fit in this one but I'm not complaining - the built-in strainer is adequate. This is another nice London Pottery piece which looks a treat and functions as required. A steal at the price.

Good pourer
Good size, fills four mugs. Quite heavy, but sturdy. Looks good. Nice match for Emma Bridgewater mugs

Let down by style over function.
This is a handsome and good looking pot. It holds four generous mugs full . . . Unfortunately it has two design flaws which render it potentially dangerous to use by all without an iron grip and great strength! Firstly the tip of the spot is lower than it should be. Looks good and doesn't drip like many but the slightest inclination of a full pot and out comes hot tea. Secondly, the spout issue is compounded by the handle design. It is an uncomfortable curvature, too wide in section for a firm grip and the glass like glaze encourages slippage. Put together even I with strong hands have to put my spare hand under the spout to advance upon the mugs and only tilt when actually directly over the mug. My 14 yo daughter of average strengths for age and size cannot safely use it and I would not allow my aged parents to risk lifting and pouring. I'm disappointed, it promised much but was deceptive! Too much 'styling' not enough 'design' - or testing!

Fantastic Customer service...
It is a large teapot, excellent customer service, late shipping but frequent updates from supplier.

Lovely!
This is a beautiful, well-made little pot. Slightly smaller than what I think of as a "standard brown betty." It's perfect for one person (if, like me, you drink quite a lot of tea each morning) or two (if you just drink a couple of mugs each).

Just what I wanted!
I just received this and have already used it and am very happy. I was looking for a very large teapot because I drink a lot in the winter months. It's very well made, sturdy. Pours well, no drips. The only thing I found concerning was the way it was packed for shipping. The box it comes offers little damage protection. And then it was just thrown in a box with a little bit of brown paper for cushioning. This shipped from London to NY. The outside box had a little damage but luckily there was no damage to the actual product. Seller should be more conscientious.

Rainbow poke-a-dotted Tea pot
It’s perfect what can I say. The mini 2 cup pot is adorable. I might have to get one in each size.
