Love it! It is easy to pour, maintains temperature as promised and the color is great. Just as advertised.

What a shame. Very appealing design, but fails to do its job. Coffee no longer warm enough to enjoy after only an hour or two and the filter lets through too many grounds. Very disappointing for a comparatively expensive product.

I usually do a single pour over of coffee for myself and no longer have an electric coffee pot. I bought this thinking I could use it as a way to brew coffee for multiple people on Christmas. The problem is the filter for coffee. It takes too long to pour the water through if you have many tablespoons of coffee in the filter. Also, lifting the filter out is impossible for me. I ended up fishing the filter out with a knife and dumped all the damp grounds into my coffee funnel. I then poured the rest of the water as a regular pour over. The carafe did keep the coffee warm for awhile ( I preheated it with boiling water) and the stylish pot was complimented on the holiday. I will keep it as a carafe but will just use my funnel on top to make the coffee in future. I think this carafe may work better as a way to make tea with loose tea or tea bags, But I haven't tried it. It's still a handsome carafe though!

This is so well made you guys! I’d definitely buy it again! Sleek, modern and extremely efficient in keeping beverages’ temperature! Pours really well. No dripping. Easy to use and easy to clean! Worth every penny!

I purchased this carafe a few months ago now, and after buying maybe 5 less expensive carafes, I would suggest just spending the money on this one. First, it works really well, and second, I just love the look!Pros:-Keeps my tea hot-Flavor is perfect-The push button to pour is more effective than other methods I've used-Pours perfectly-Easy to clean-Comes with a tea strainer-Also has a filter to prevent leaves/coffee from pouring-Very nice packaging-Helpful product information enclosedCons:-None that I've experienced

I purchased this carafe a few weeks ago and have been using it daily since and it has delivered on all of my expectations for a good product.The Lagom has a quality build and feels that way too. I was a little skeptical of the wooden handle being attached to the molded top but after using it I am very happy with its construction. I prefer stainless bodies over the glass inserts as I've had too many breaks over the years or separate at the neck and cause a mess. The little quality detail I love the most is the button. It doesn't feel cheap and is very satisfying to use.The seals work great and you don't need to twist excessively to seat them properly. If you are a tea drinker, like me, you will enjoy having the different straining options. I couldn't get the flow to stay consistent with the "drink now" method using the stainless strainer as the leaves just clog it up, but the "later" method works great and helps with keeping the carafe clean.It is not the cheapest carafe you can buy but definitely worth it. You get a very well-made product with a unique aesthetic and great functionality for an affordable price. Cheaper carafes tend not to last and just look generic overall. If any of my other carafes need replacement over the years I will definitely be looking at the offerings from this brand to replace them.

good for two people to have two medium cups. little hot to remove filter if brewing hot coffee. coffee not so strong with 5 min steep, but maybe you can fiddle with time and amount. solid carafe, keeps it hot, does the thing, looks nice.

I use this only for water - warm in cooler and cold weather, cold in really hot weather. So far, I'm pleased with the effectiveness of its thermal properties. I love the aesthetics, the shape, the handle. It's just the right size, not too heavy when full. My only complaint is that it doesn't dry out inside overnight, even though it is turned upside down on a draining rack with lots of air movement underneath.

I have to admit that initially I was a bit reluctant to order this after reading some of the reviews. I had asked a question here on Amazon and was impressed to have a response from the seller the next morning. I took a risk and ordered it, and am sure glad I did. I was looking for a carafe to brew tea once and drink throughout my work day at my desk (working from home), instead of constantly having to brew fresh tea. Sometimes I use fresh tea leaves, sometimes tea bags. I immediately poured some hot water in to rinse it, then made my first tea (in the prewarmed carafe). My heart almost sank when it poured half a cup, then barely a drizzle. I tried the lid any which way, and yes, pressed the button. I asked a question on here again, and was pleasantly surprised to have a super prompt response from their customer support to reach out to them right away. I didn't need to, as in the meantime I figured out that it was because I left the teabag in the strainer (didn't have loose tea today), which must have plugged the spout. So, that was absolutely no fault of the product and I now love it. The 1.4L/50oz. size is perfect, the style is great, and it's INCREDIBLE that this carafe does not drip. No drips AT ALL. I look forward to using this for tea in the colder months, and in the summer use it for iced water on the balcony. And seeing how quick the seller is to respond here, I feel confident that should one ever encounter any issues, they will respond. 5/5Edited to add:- When pouring one cup every hour, I found that the carafe keeps the drink hot for 5.5 hours.- When not opening it, it kept boiling water hot for 13 hours overnight, to the point where I could only put my finger in for a few seconds after that time.

I ordered this item specifically for its supposed to be feature that it has a removable infuser and strainer included. Also the size doesn't really match the description that it can hold 1.5L. On the other hand the product looks really good, quality is good, packed and delivered in very good way.

My children have been after me to replace my old silver-plated teapot (on left in photo) for several years. Finally I found one I liked. The Hastings Collective “Lagom” appealed to me because:1. The outer material is scratch resistance -- I concur with the one reviewer who tried to scratch it and was unable. The material seems very durable. I have also found that the tea stains wash off easily.2. I expect it will stand up to lots of use – and I will use mine a lot! Another reviewer used it in a restaurant and was impressed. I worked in quality management at a five-star hotel for many years so that spoke to me.3. I like the wood-like handle, though I wish the whole thing was less modern-looking. I chose white because the metal one looked too much like it belonged in a restaurant and another reviewer said the black was hard to keep clean-looking. If the company had offered fun colors, I likely would have picked one of those instead of white, but they chose a good white and I can live with it.4. The inner cages/baskets/infusers mean I can easily remove the tea leaves after the steeping period. There are two baskets; the metal inner basket (where you are supposed to put the tea leaves) has tiny holes, and the plastic outer basket has a finer screen/mesh designed to catch the dregs or the itty bitty pieces that might get through the holes of the inner basket. I used both baskets the way it was recommended but my first try was unsuccessful. I put the tea leaves (earl gray is my favorite black tea) in the inner basket and positioned everything properly. Something didn't work right though because although the leaves were wet, the tea (the normal amount that I put in my old pot of the same size) was exceedingly weak, as if the metal basket or the leaves in it blocked the passage of infused water somehow. I threw the weak tea out. The next time I put the leaves in just the outer basket, setting the metal basket aside, and it worked very well. The convenience of the baskets is great, especially if you are used to having to use a strainer while pouring your tea out, but a couple of points on this: a. The metal inner basket is tight on its seal and it gets hot when it sits in very hot water. On my first try (before I realized I could make do without it) I found out that if I want to limit the amount of time the tea leaves continue infusing the water, I had to remove that basket, and that was hard when I tried to do it. It was too wet to use a potholder and too hot to use just my hand, and has no special catch or holder that made it easier. b. The skinny outer basket has a plastic frame that is not so hot to the touch and allows me to reach in and take out the whole thing with my hands when the leaves have been in there long enough to suit me. A little handle might make that easier but I can manage with it as it is. I love how fine that mesh is. Well done, whoever found this material! (I hope it holds up!)5. The opening is big enough to get my hand in there to clean the inside of the pot. Once I have removed the basket(s), I add my milk and sugar right into the pot so I don't have to add them every time I want to refill my cup. I get a whole pot of tea prepared to my liking ready to go! So many thermos-type cups and carafes have a skinny neck and you need a long-handled brush to clean them but you can never feel like you've cleaned it well enough. The hand-size opening is a great feature! In my case, especially since I put the milk and sugar right into the pot after the tea has steeped, I want to be able to clean it well for the next time.6. I like being able to heat the pot and lengthen the amount of time the tea within will stay hot. The recommendation to put hot water in it for ten minutes is fine, but possibly complicates/lengthens the process. Many of us are a bit impatient for our tea or have other things to do than fill the pot with hot water so it can sit there while the rest of our water is boiling (which might take less than ten minutes, or more, and some people might get stuck on the ten-minutes part). I simply boil a bit more water than I need, pour some (I'm guessing half a cup or so) into the pot and swish it around for 10-15 seconds, then pour it out. The boiling water heats the inner sleeve nicely. Then right away I put in the basket with tea leaves and pour in the rest of the boiling water. The perfectly round inner thermal cylinder makes a circular swishing motion work well.7. The spout does not drip, dribble or otherwise function negatively. I’m not quite sure how they managed that, but it’s just right.8. The size is great for me. This pot holds 50 ounces, which is about right for 3-5 mugs, depending on how big the mugs are. The company also makes the 40-oz “Mysa” and the 68-oz “Venera,” which have slightly different body styles but I assume the same inner components.My old system involved two pots, one to make the tea in and another to pour the tea into (using a strainer) which I would then doctor with my milk and sugar. Being able to use one pot like this is wonderful!Bravo to Hastings Collective! I look forward to seeing if they develop fun colors or a more classically elegant, slightly curved perhaps, body design like my old pot. I would be over the moon.

very disappointed, this product does not keep the coffee hot even for half an hour !!!!!
