Pros

The breville tea maker ensures that your tea is always ready when you need it. It can be set to automatically start a tea steep at your desired time and settings. The lcd timer is a convenient addition, helping me keep track of the brewing time. It's ...  Read More

Do not break the carafe. It is a lot like a like the stainless stanley coffee thermos. Replacement parts are available - if you go to their website to order more powder cleaner, you'll see they also have parts like the basket and lid that can be purch...  Read More

Just be careful not to bump it against the sink too hard & it’s worth every penny! This is well worth the price. Your mileage many vary.

The breville tea maker is incredibly easy to use, with intuitive controls that even a tea novice like myself can navigate. Despite my grousing, i thoroughly enjoy this tea maker and the tea that it produces. They fit nicely ( albeit a bit scrunching n...  Read More

The brushed stainless steel design not only adds a touch of elegance to my kitchen but also ensures durability. The sleek design and shiny stainless steel finish make it a real showstopper.



Cons

Tea maker seems ridiculous. These aren’t 1st i expect they’re refurbished, seconds, or christmas returns! At the prices they charge for this junk is to much to expect a modicum of quality and durability?

The warranty is good for one year. If that is breville's warranty, then it is next to useless. Who know what else is in the fine print that is supposed to protect customers from company liability. Think they know it is a design flaw and don't want to ...  Read More

Highlights

Quality


It appears very well made, very solid and heavy, especially the carafe.


The hot water only button and warming features are great and used frequently.


I bought this tea machine in 2011 after throwing away several metal ones which always accumulated scale and water began to taste terrible.


It's like a personal butler at your service, with its auto start and shut off, your perfect cup of tea is just a press away.

Price


Easy to useother than cost, no cons.


It’s expensive, and if you count in cleaning etc it’s probably more work to use this to make tea than to use an electric kettle...  Read More


Not a huge deal for most people probably.

    But i desire a one button one and done solution


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Instead you have to heat the water then add the tea and hit a button in between


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This probably sounds so stupid to tea aficionados but i just want the tea and don’t care about perfection or tannins or any of that


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The calibration for amount of water in the containers is in an inconvenient location making it hard to read


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    But i had a boil over event twice recently so decided to replace it
