Review on Stainless Removable Pitcher Beverage Dispenser by Anthony Cano

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It's almost perfect

I've reviewed MANY of these identical devices. I ended up buying 2 for under $30. You should not spend more. Neat glass. I've seen reviews that refer to thin glass but I just don't see it. You all feel the same. The differences lie in two things: the filter and the nozzle. It had a cheap filter but a metal tube. The other had a thick metal filter and a plastic tube (chromed). I was going to return one but kept both as we both drank a cold drink once a day and used up the jug pretty quickly. I have to say, after a while I say DEFINITELY, get a metal case. The (other) plastic nipple is very difficult to turn and the chrome came off after a week. In time I will buy one made of metal and put it on top of another pitcher. This pitcher has a thin metal filter that will break if you touch it. I remove it CAREFULLY and wash it with my hands. I never take it in the middle, always at the top. However, I see how others have broken it. The bottom line is that if you handle it well, it will happen. A metal tip is a MUST. DO NOT RECEIVE PLASTIC, trust me. As for the coffee context, I used 3 cups which seemed to fill it 3/4 full. Now I use 4 cups filling a cylinder. I use a cheap coffee grinder and only fill it about half full and hold for 6 seconds. So my sentence never falls out of the filter. Although I prefer strong coffee. I have a fancy Nespresso machine but after making myself a cold drink I feel like even the Nespresso is watered down lol. People love the Vertuo Nespresso, but it's just mediocre in comparison. I saved about $50 a week by skipping Starbucks with very little fuss. I'm glad Starbucks is out of business because of their antics. Also, this coffee (it doesn't matter blend) is significantly better than their Cold Brew, Nitro, even Cold Brew Shot. Your cup of water with some coffee and lots of sugar (if you get a specialty). I recommend using your own drink to save money and use almond milk, coconut milk, half and half, 100% cocoa powder to make something like cream if you need it. Much luck

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • I'm worried
