Sunbeam Tea Drop, November 15, 2009Have had our Sunbeam Tea Drop for about 3 weeks now and love it. The people who say it does not brew a strong enough cup of tea are full of beans!! Before I got it, I was steeping my tea in boiling water… for 15 minutes. There is NO difference what so ever between the taste of the tea. (I was using green tea) It is WONDERFUL not to have to go thru all of the extra steps and to have a perfectly brewed cup of tea in minutes. I'd buy another one when this one dies.
Birthday Surprise, October 25, 2009Great if you don't want to bother with a tea kettle, October 4, 2009I bought and destroyed (boiled dry) two $90 William Sonoma kettles before I found this. My husband destroyed the first and I couldn't believe how careless and absentminded he was and told him so. Then… karma got me and another beautiful kettle was garbage. Clearly, I can't be trusted to boil water either. This makes decent tea and is very convenient. You can choose how strong you want it. Most important, for my family, you can leave it unattended for a long time without dire consequences even if it goes dry. I do wish they'd add an auto shut off feature, but even leaving it on for a long period of time has had no dire consequences (yet.) I'm replacing my current one after several years of daily use because it seems to be perma set on "light" tea recently, but for the $30 it cost when I bought it, it was well worth buying.

The title of this short article sums it up. Writer Rob Beschizza blasts the Tea Drop for overcomplicating tea making, resulting in poor performance. The water just doesn't get hot enough for good tea, he says.
