The Teapot for One

Firstly, this comes in a really nice cylindrical cardboard pack, which I've kept.

Obviously being able to watch the leaves brewing is awesome.

It is definitely way easier to clean than a basket strainer - i.e. no endless scraping. My tip for cleaning the lid is to turn it upside down, fill it with water under the table whilst gently swirling it, then just flip it over into your sieve. Doing that once or twice is usually enough. Remember if you're refilling the pot with the same tea as the last cup, it's not essential to get rid of every last leaf anyway. If you use a bergamot oil-based tea rather than black tea, you'll need to clean more thoroughly to remove the lingering smell/taste.

The main glass section is incredibly easy to swirl out as per Brew's description.

My other tip would be to pour very slowly, i.e. barely horizontally, because the slower you pour, the fewer leaves go to into the top of the pot.

It does look really nice. I wash up by hand and just make a slight extra effort to be gentle with it.

Use a toothbrush-style washing up brush to reduce the tea stains around the bottom of the lid.

The seal around the lid is very secure, it doesn't leak.

You don't have to drink 400ml at a time, I often measure out half the volume of leaves and use 200ml for a single cup. If you're filling a pot and pouring a couple of ~200ml cups, the second cup will be stronger.
