I really loved the electric tea pot.  First of all it is so good looking. The way the base lights up is so unique and entertaining to watch. I liked the way the pot easily lifts from the base. It makes it easy to bring to the sink to fill up, and it also makes it easy to serve.  It worked quickly, even faster than the microwave.  It brewed the tea perfectly when I made a big pot for iced tea, and it worked easily as well when making an individual cup of tea.  The optional basket was helpful when brewing a full pot of tea.  I really like it and would definitely recommend it to any tea drinker.
