 Great, but 1 flaw August 23, 2008
This makes the best iced tea, hands down, in ten minutes. I'm on my third maker, but 12th pitcher. They know that the pitcher is flawed, but fail to change it. The front seam, as everyone who has one knows, cracks after a while. I use super glue down the seam to extend the life of mine. It works for only so long, though. I guess if the tea maker never fails, they have to make money on the replacement pitchers. The only reason I buy new makers is that it's almost as cheap as buying replacement pitchers and they usually come with two. Shouldn't be that way. Lets get creative, Mr. Coffee.
 Can't Live Without This Ice Tea Maker August 15, 2008
I LOVE this ice tea maker. It's quick and easy to use and makes GREAT iced tea. My first one lasted forever and still works like the day I purchased it which was over 15 years ago. I only recently bought a new system because I broke the pitcher and the cost of shipping the replacement pitcher was almost as much as purchasing the whole unit. (I purchased a replacement pitcher once before, which is a good deal if you can get free shipping.) Overall this is an awesome product and well worth every penny!!
Best Iced Tea ever! July 25, 2008
Easy to use and makes the best iced tea! I use 4 regular sized teabags per quart and it comes out perfect every time. It uses a lot of ice so be sure to have extra bags on hand.
Almost great July 9, 2008
My only regret was I couldnt find a 2 qt model at Walmart.
So I figured I would take the 3 and make 2 qts at a time.
That was fine for a while. But now after about 6 months or so.
Only half the water in the machine comes out in a brewing process,
so I have to wait for it to finish, and start it a second time.
Anyone else have this problem? I tried the loose tea once, yuk,
bits and pieces all in my tea, yes even thru the filter. Other than
that, it makes some great ice tea.
 pitcher always cracks July 7, 2008
I have gone through a number of these, both the 2 qt and 3 qt. I use it once or twice everyday. I never place in dishwasher. I add ice manually by hand. And inevitably every single picture develops a crack down the front after roughly one year of use. Then it starts to leak inside the refrigerator. I usually just replace the whole unit at Walmart - about the same cost as the replacement picture with the added shipping. The tea is excellent, if the pictures held up better I would rate it 5.
