Bodum 1470-10 Ceylon Ice Tea Maker with Filter

Amazon.com Review
Winter or summer, no Southerner will be found without a glass of iced tea in hand. With Bodum's Ceylon ice tea pitcher, brewing a superlative fresh version of this beverage is a breeze even for the Mason-Dixon-challenged among us. Simply place tea leaves in the brewing column, pour a few ounces of boiling water over them, fill the jug with cold water, and leave it in the fridge. The next morning, add lemon and sugar and start counting the hours until it's time to switch to juleps; you don't even have to remove the leaves in order to pour. Bodum's classic design makes this an attractive serving pitcher as well. --Mary Park

Clearly disappointed! June 29, 2008
I ordered two of the 51 ounce tea makers, fully expecting them to be as they were pictured - and as I have seen them in stores. However they arrived and were bright orange in color and definitely not see through as I wanted. I decided to keep them and get used to the color. They are fully functional and work very well - as well as the clear ones I am sure! So, although I'm disappointed in the actual appearance of the tea makers, we are still enjoying delicious cold tea. I bought two smaller ones in order to make and keep on hand two different kinds of tea at once. The clear ones would have allowed us to see clearly which kind of tea was inside, without opening them or smelling. And I am getting used to the startling color. I'm not so sure about my husband. He wanted me to return them. But I'm not planning to serve them at the table, so I decided to enjoy the low price I paid and deal with the garish color.

Fits easily in my refrigerator, height of milk container May 19, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

The good thing about the 51 oz pitcher is that it is the same height as a milk carton, so it is not too tall to fit in my refrigerator. It is a nice fancy tea pitcher, with a flip up lid, and a easy to pour spout that does not spill the tea.

Mine did come with instructions, and for the first brew, I followed the instructions and put seven (7) tablespoons of tea in the chamber. Gag! the tea was way too strong. After some experimentation I have settled on 2 Tablespoons and 3 minutes of steeping to make sure we don't get the bitter taste.

Bodum Ceylon 51-Ounce Ice Tea Maker with Filter March 26, 2008

I love this item because it makes brewing iced tea from loose leaf tea quick and simple, the only only thing I didn't care for on this item was the instructions which tell you in my opinion to add too much tea but that's just a preference once you brew on your own you can experiment with brewing times etc. to get the taste that's right for you. I also suggest pouring the hot water directly on top of the tea in the strainer rather then pouring in the larger section, this will allow for a more efficient steep.

Lower-quality Bodum product December 9, 2007
2 out of 6 found this review helpful

I ordered this as a gift, and I was glad I pulled it out of the box before gifting it -- it looks like a cheap, boring water container. The plastic seemed of low quality, and the box was torn and plastered with a large white barcode sticker. Granted, I didn't get to use the product, so I can't speak to its performance there, but I would not recommend this as a gift to anyone who hasn't clearly requested it. I rarely return items to Amazon, but this one was sent back immediately. And I usually like Bodum products...

I have had no problems September 5, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I was tired of the hassle of brewing one cup at a time and then icing it. With this pitcher I can make a lot and then let it sit in the fridge. I pour half a pitcher of hot water in and let it steep just as the directions say. Note that they say, "hot", not boiling. My plastic has never warped, but I also wash it by hand instead of in the dishwasher and maybe that has something to do with it.
I do get some dregs and tea leaves in the tea, but that happens with every other tea filter I have, too, and I take it as a given. For the price I think I've got a pretty good deal, and I think it looks nice, too.
