Sunbeam HTM5 Tea Drop Hot Tea Maker  Product Reviews

"Makes great tea quickly. I use 2 tea bags or 2 rounded teaspoons of loose tea on the strong setting and it is just right for my husband and myself."

"I recently bought this to keep in my office so that I could have hot tea during the cold winter season. I followed the directions exactly as written in the provided manual and the first pot of tea was perfect. It was the right strength, it was piping hot, and the relaxing aroma filled my office. After an hour or two, however I noticed that there was an unusual amount of tea particles floating in the pot. I was confused as to how this could happen as I used tea bags and I used the filter inside the Tea Drop. I thought I did something wrong but the same problem occurred with each subsequent pot. So while at first the machine is great, if you let the tea sit of any amount of time you will find yourself sipping tea that the leaves have separated from. Perhaps I'll find a remedy to the issue but as it is now I cannot give the Tea Drop better than an average rating."

"I love this unit! Makes fast HOT HOT tea and keeps it hot. What a great device. I can't recommend it high enough."

"So far I'm very pleased w/ this attractive tea maker. I really like that it has several removable pieces for easy cleaning and the adjustable brewing strength. My only concern is the expense of a replacement carafe since the size and shape would require a duplicate vs. a regular small glass carafe."
