Better than I'd even hoped

My flask arrived today and I couldn't be happier.

I am currently writing an essay for university and it's been 4 hours since I filled the flask up and I JUST poured myself another hot (not warm!) fruit infusion.

I think I will be buying my mother one for her office!

Absolutely brilliant

We have 2 of these and they're brilliant! We don't infuse the tea in them as the tea would gradually "stew". SO, we decant our tea into the pots and then use them all day OR have a really hot cup of tea waiting when we walk in the door.

Cleaning is quite simple: use DriPak soda crystals with water inside and/or their Liquid Soda Crystals for the outside. It's green and gentle and cleans ALL your tea stained ware.

Cannot recommend these enough - saves energy: ours and electricity.

fab

Really cool design and something more exciting than a regular thermos. Keeps my tea hot for ages.

Looks great but impossible to clean

i wanted a teapot that didnt look too old or too posh and after chasing teapigs for several weeks to get this black lovely back into stock i was very happy when it came in the post.

It looks exactly like the picture and holds approx 4 cups/3 large mugs, although you will need 2 teabags if making any more than 2 cups at a time. It also keeps my tea warm for hours on end which is fab as i tend to make a flask of liquorice and peppermint and plonk it on my desk as fuel for the day. The longest i have left it so far is about 8 hours after i went out shopping and forgot but i still found it to be drinkably hot.

My only, however somewhat major gripe is that its nigh on impossible to clean. The exterior is gloss black plastic with a silver plastic lid, however the inside is glass with a typical bottle shaped neck and no way to take it apart. the instructions also clearly state not to submerge in water or put in a dishwasher and to only rinse with soapy water. I dont exactly have chubby hands, but even i struggle to get a sponge in to clean it and have to stick to swilling with soapy water. Ionly really use the pot for one flavour, but i can see how this could be an issue if you wanted to alternate flavours.
