wirsh Iced Tea Maker with 3QT Pitcher, Iced Coffee Maker with Strength Control and Reusable Filter, Perfect For Iced Coffee, Latte, Tea, Lemonade, Flavored Water, Black

I like this quite a bit. Very easy to use. It has a very fine mesh basket which means you can use loose tea rather than tea bags. Look at Davidson's Organics (available on Amazon) for a great selection. I put a couple of spoons of sugar in the basket and then fill it to the top with loose tea. Set it on strongest and refill the water chamber a few times during brewing to get a full pitcher. It will be too strong to drink directly but dilute with water or seltzer and you'll get great results.

It is a very good Iced Tea Maker. Easy to use and the tea tastes great.

This was purchased as a replacement for a 10 year old Mr. Coffee. This is a high quality ice tea maker the glass carafe is thin but sturdy. It’s nice not having to worry about the heat of the tea and plastic container.All in all very nice unit would recommend.

I am happy with this Iced Tea maker, but always concerned that I am going to accidentally crack or break the glass carafe. My one issue with it is the lever that you can use to adjust the brew strength. My lever has never stayed in the position that I put it in, it always ends up sliding on its own to the right to full strength, it won’t stay where I adjust it to, so not happy with that, but it brews iced tea nicely. I also like that the water reservoir is marked with how much water to add to the machine and also marked on the glass carafe with how much ice to fill the carafe with before brewing.

The tea maker works great, but the thin glass pitcher is too fragile. The narrow mouth of the pitcher makes it impossible to prevent the ice from hitting hard at the bottom. Just a cube of ice cracked the bottom of the pitcher after a few weeks of use. I'm now looking for a different type of tea maker, something more durable.

I purchased this iced tea maker in June 2024, and it’s become part of my daily routine, sometimes twice a day! I also bought the extra glass pitcher, which makes it easy to always have cold tea ready in the fridge. I typically run the machine three times per brew cycle to fill the carafe, and it produces flavorful, beautifully clear tea every time.In the beginning I used ice, but found it unnecessary since I always keep a cold pitcher ready. While the included glass pitcher is a bit thin, it's held up surprisingly well to regular use with no cracks or issues, just handle with care.The spout occasionally drips from the side, but adjusting the angle of the pour fixes it. I did have a problem early on with cloudy tea, but switching to Red Rose tea bags and using filtered water solved that completely. (Louisianne and Lipton didn’t produce the same clarity for me.)After a year of heavy use, the filter basket started to clog despite regular cleanings with vinegar and baking soda. I contacted customer support, and they were responsive and helpful, providing a link to purchase a replacement basket ($9 plus $10 shipping).All in all, this iced tea maker has exceeded my expectations and become a kitchen staple. I would definitely recommend it!

Quality product and easy to use

I’ve had mine for quite awhile now. Maybe 6 months. It is so easy to use, especially since iced tea is the beverage of the day here.I like the filter well enough, but have considered using disposable filters, the kind that’s used for coffee. Haven’t done that yet.The water line is well marked and I’ve only poured too much in once because I wasn’t paying attention. Pay attention and there will be no problems.I do NOT add ice to the pitcher. Cold water only and then add ice to the glasses.Some have complained about the included glass pitcher. I noticed the first day that the pitcher is too thin and fragile and I don’t use it. Instead, I use a sturdy plastic 1/2 gallon pitcher from a well-known company. I haven’t had any problems at all.I also use the maker 2x in order to have a full gallon of tea. No lemon, no sugar, just delicious ice cold, iced tea once I pour it over a glass full of ice.In all, I love this iced tea maker, except for the included glass pitcher.
