Had it for years and LOVE IT!,
By A Customer
This review is from: 2QT Elec Iced Tea Maker
Ok, I have had a Mr. Coffee Iced Tea Maker for years...Probably 6 or so. My Grandparents had one as my Grandpa loved iced tea. So for my 18th birthday, they gave me one. Its so easy, and makes good iced tea. I read some of the reviews and this is what I have to say about some comments...I have made iced tea on the stove, and yes its good but that is also time consuming. The pitchers are dishwasher safe, and so are the lids. A review mentioned that you have to fill it up with ice. Thats what the instructions say, but fill up water to the ice line, and it works just as good. The point of the ice is to make it cold right away. I have dont it that way, and I had to add more ice or water like the person said. So I use all water, no ice and it works just fine. Its warm, but add ice and it cools down. This way, you can also add sugar and it will disolve while its brewing...Makes for some good sweet tea. Anyways I was looking at getting one for my sister who had one, but it got lost in a cross country move. She loves her too! This is great! Its a great wedding gift too. I reccommend this very much.

Ice Tea Lovers this is the Gadget for you!!!!!!!!,
By Eugene Fowler (Nome, AK United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 2QT Elec Iced Tea Maker
I have owned 2 of them one for 11 years. I bought another one because it was just as cheap to buy a new one as to buy replacement pitchers. My suggestion to people is don't put the ice in the pitcher use water and use ice in your glass to cool down even more. My family drinks at least a pitcher a day if not two especially on summer days. It is quick and easy and I love mine. If you have water staying in your unit run some vinegar through the unit it cleans out all the minerals and then run a couple of pitchers of water through. Cleans it out every time. Hope you found this helpful.

Quick, Simple way to Brew Iced Tea,

This review is from: 2QT Elec Iced Tea Maker
Mr. Coffee's Iced Tea maker is an appliance that I only recently acquired. But in a short time, I have become as addicted to this device as I have to the caffeine contained in the beverage it produces. The reason? Simplicity and speed. With this appliance, all you need are three things found in most any tea lovers kitchen: water, ice, and of course, tea bags or loose tea. You don't need measuring cups. All you do is fill the pitcher to the line marked for water; pour the water into the reservoir; fill the empty pitcher with ice up to the line marked for ice; place 6 to 10 regular- size tea bags in the brewing basket; and press the start button. In about 5 minutes, you will have 2 quarts of freshly brewed iced tea, chilled and ready to drink. On the negative side, there are a few things about this device that could stand to be improved. First of all, there is no sugar dispenser. You can add sugar directly to the brewing basket (sprinkled over the tea bags) but this can get messy and it doesn't guarantee that all of the sugar will dissolve and make its way into the pitcher. Second, you need to know that this appliance doesn't offer any means to control the steeping. The water is heated in the reservoir and is then transferred to the brew basket where it then soaks through the tea bags and drips into the pitcher. There is no way to control the steeping and allow the water to soak up more tea. And third, the plastic pitcher is prone to staining and needs to be cleaned quickly. Overall, though, this is still a very good appliance. I used to snicker when I would see this device in a store because I couldn't understand why anyone would waste his/her money on such an unnecessary piece of equipment. But now that I have one, I can understand why this appliance is popular and continues to sell so well. It makes a great addition to any kitchen where iced tea is a popular beverage. It's simple, easy to use, and it brews a full pitcher of tea in minutes. Now that I have one, I would never give it up!
