 5 months of heavy use and very satisfiedMar 03, 2010
I received this teapot along with some samples of decaffeinated and herbal teas as a gift five months ago. I have used it many (easily 100+) times and I am very pleased with both the pot and the tea. Some days it is pretty much in constant use throughout my workday. It has become slightly tea-stained with use, but that doesn't bother me. It washes up in the top rack of the dishwasher when I feel it needs a thorough cleaning, and otherwise it just gets rinsed thoroughly at the end of the brewing day. I was so pleased with it that I have given the same type of teapot as a gift twice since receiving mine (and one co-worker purchased one after seeing mine at work). One recipient has told me "You have ruined me for teabags forever."
I like good quality tea, but I am very sensitive to caffeine. Decaf loose tea is fairly hard to come by. I am quite happy with the variety and quality of the decaf loose teas that I have tried from Adagio.
An added bonus of this teapot is being able to witness the pleasant sight of the leaves unfurling in the hot water, and the color changing as it steeps.
I am sorry to see that one customer had a faulty pot and had trouble trying to get satisfaction from the company four months after purchasing it, but I feel no hesitation, based on my own experience and that of my friends, recommending this product as one well worth the money. In my little circle, everyone seems quite satisfied with their purchases from Adagio.

Finally a good cup of tea everydayFeb 19, 2010
I have only had a couple of really good cups of green tea in my life, and that was at my favorite Thai restaurant in LA. I have tried to make it at home with ho-hum success. But this Adagio Ingenutia Teapot is so easy and Adagio's green teas are such top quality that now I can finally have a good cup every day of my life. Now if you have your favorite tea brand just buy the teapot. But if you don't, get the combo of the teapot with 4 tins of your favorite variety and you won't be disappointed.
I've got 4 birthdays coming up for family members that really don't need anything but I'm sure I'll be a big hit with a gift of an Adagio teapot & tea.
 Neat little contraptionJan 09, 2009
When I saw Kevin Rose use this thing on Diggnation, I knew I had to get it. I had never seen anything like it. I like that you have plenty of space for the tea leaves to expand. I haven't yet experienced the mesh strainer popping out or "stuff" getting into my tea. It's easy to clean, even if you don't pop it in the dishwasher. Even though it's made of plastic, it seems like a sturdy plastic and hasn't broken even when I'm rough with it.
Everyone is intrigued in this device whenever I use it. There's just something about the tea leaves dancing and then the water emptying out when you put it over your cup. I'm at the point now where I can't imagine making tea without it. It's just so convenient and interesting to watch.
Unfortunately I wasn't a huge fan of three of the teas I received with this set. I received Citron Green, Gunpowder, Hojicha, and Genmai Cha. I only liked the Citron Green, even though I normally hate citrus anything in my tea. I wish that there was more of a "simple" and "unroasted" green tea that came with the set. If you're thinking of purchasing this for yourself or as a gift, you may want to go to the Adagio Tea website and pick out flavors that are better suited to the tastes of whoever is drinking the tea.

Very good choice for loose tea. The tea with the set is a little too weak for me. I tend to like the bolder flavors...
Nice little teapotSep 08, 2008
Bought this set for my mom for her birthday. She prefers tea in the afternoon as a pick-me-up instead of coffee. She was able to get the hang of brewing loose tea after an initial time or two. Has had no difficulty with the teapot and reported that the teas were really good tasting.
