Tsukiusagijirushi Tsukiusagijirushi Slim Pot, 1.2L Black

I've loved these things ever since I saw them in Japan. True, they take a while to heat up and don't whistle, but they're gorgeous and force me to slow down a bit. The spout is especially excellent for pour-over coffee.

I read a good review and ordered. After about 5 months of use, I've discovered that there is significant rusting that has developed where the spout connects to the main body. I'm unable to return and was unable to find a way to contact retailer to address away from a public review. It's certainly a handsome pot, but I'm disappointed with the rust. Two pictures attached, one with a teaspoon for size reference.

Narrow base means it takes longer for water boil.

It's pretty, has a larger usable capacity, and doesn't splatter like the Hario sometimes does, but otherwise it's a disaster. It's extremely heavy, has no lid vents for the steam that signals boiling, the handle gets extremely hot and its closed-loop shape makes using a potholder or oven mitt clumsy & unwieldy to use, and its lid doesn't fit securely--making it necessary to use potholders or kitchen towels with BOTH hands. Its narrow base doesn't fit properly on my gas range's burners, causing flames to lick up the sides or taking forever to boil on the lowest settings. Its weight and the angle at which I need to hold it is very rough on my wrists and I'm terrified I will drop it. The tall angle of the spout is a plus (prevents splattering) but the opening is too wide to do a true "drip" pour. Back to the drawing board--but it will make a nice serving piece, just useless for the actual brewing process.

Very beautiful and great to pour my prepared tea over the mother in my kombucha crock without disturbing the mother. So pretty sitting on the countertop.

Useless - handle is not insulted. Who wants to use a stove glove to pour a kettle. Idiotic frankly.

I have not purchased this yet, but I did note that 1.2 Liter = 0.31 gallons not 3.1 gallons. This tea kettle is recommended by wire cutter - Considering purchasing red.

The size of this pot is pretty small but quality is amazing.

ホワイトを購入。色はアクリル絵の具のような明るく透明感のない白です。商品重量は762gと記載されておりましたが、本体重量は620.5gでした。商品紹介の内容量やパッケージにも1.2Lと記載されておりますが、実際には蓋を外し表面張力が起きるまで水を入れても1.1Lが限界で、少し怒っています。ですからお湯を沸かす際には600ml迄を目安にするとよろしいかと思います。ポット底面も小さく3つ口のガステーブル中央の小さい五徳でようやく安定し、左右の五徳ではやはり不安定です。注ぎ口のカットに鋭さがないので液ダレのような現象が起きますが、素早くポットを垂直に立てるといったコツを習得すれば全く問題ありません。傾けると蓋が外れますので、蓋を必ず外してお湯を注ぐことを推奨します。あとはこまめに重曹で磨き続けるだけ。不満は色々あれど、可愛さに流されて落ち着きました。
