 Easy to hold, but lids don't fit well, August 24, 2010
|
|

I bought two of these. The glass is lightweight. The thin design makes it easy to store in fridge. However, the lids don't fit well. Unless I hold the lid down very tightly on one of the pitchers, it leaks. With the other pitcher, even when I hold the lid down, it leaks. So I just remove the lids and they pour fine that way.

 Good Size!, August 16, 2010

Perfect size/shape to store in the 'fridge door. Heavy duty glass keeps beverages cool. One thing to improve would be to somehow put a protective cover onto the side "handle" so that it can be easily be picked up when filled with hot liquid. You either have to wait for the liquid/bottle to cool or use a mitt which can be slippery.

 2 qt glass bottle, August 10, 2010
|
|
I purchased 2 of these. One for my filtered water and one for my iced tea. I love them. Now I don't have to worry about what I am getting from using plastic. Fits in the door of my refrigerator. Looks nice putting it out on the table.

Great Beverage Container; Lousy Lid, July 27, 2010
|

Back in the good old days, you used to be able to buy orange juice in glass containers which were much the same size and shape as this container. Such orange juice containers were extraordinarily useful, as they were infinitely reusable and their squared shape was both easy to grab and quite space-efficient in the refrigerator. And glass is just plain *really nice* for the storage of food & drink. (Hello all you marketers out there, please get a clue!!!!) Glass is easy to clean, and it keeps the taste of its contents intact and separate from the rest of what's in the refrigerator. I still have an old orange juice container that I've continued to use lo these many years for the family's orange juice concentrate!
But alas, you can't readily find orange juice containers like that any more. This container is about as close as I've found. It's reasonably close in size and concept, and I *think* I had one just like it (alas sometimes glass does break) a few years ago that had a well-fitted rubber-type lid. It didn't have the virtue of being readily available almost for free the way the old orange juice containers used to be, but in all other respects it was as good or maybe even better.
Alas, the lid provided with this container is no longer well-fitted rubber like I seem to remember. Instead, the hard, cheap-feeling plastic lid provided with this container *sort of* fits the opening of the container, and seems like it's designed so that you could rotate the lid to seal/unseal the container to pour (the lid even has a tiny vistigial hole that presumably would have let the air in as you pour the contents of the container out). But inexplicably, instead of being made of a snug-sealing rubber-type substance, the hard plastic lid is both inflexible and about 1.5 mm too small for the opening. Which means that the lid does not seal properly at all. (Perhaps you could manage to shake the contents of this container if you held the lid on very tightly, but your odds of avoiding a spill would be higher if you left the lid off and instead tightly held the palm of your hand across the mouth of the container). It's almost as if the manufacturer felt compelled to make the lid recylable, but didn't modify the design of the top so that the new material (which by the way is not-very-recyclable #5 plastic) would actually continue to fit its intended purpose.
Despite this bizarre and unfortunate flaw, this container is far more useful for storing liquids in the refrigerator than anything else I've found readily available in the market. Unless I can find some more of those great old orange juice containers, I'll be buying more.
As I say, a great product, except that it's let down by a bizarrely inadequate lid that doesn't quite seal.

Exactly what I wanted, July 26, 2010

Perfect for iced tea, and if you don't want it to dribble don't pour so fast.
