5.0 out of 5 stars Best Refrigerator Pitcher - Hands Down, March 2, 2008

By

This review is from: Frigoverre Pitcher 2 Liter

These are great refrigerator pitchers for two main reasons:

1.) They are heavy duty glass, so unlike plastic they will not absorb flavors, odors and colors from what you put in them.

2.) They have a hermetic seal, so the flavor of your product stays in while other refrigerator odors stay out. Definitely a fresher taste for a longer duration. These are great for milk. (I can't stand those plastic jugs and the milk in glass jars at the grocery is just too expensive to buy every time.)

In response to one reviewer: Regarding the seal, there is actually a trick to sealing it properly. If you just place the lid on the container it will probably not seal. If you hold the outside of the lid and twist the middle handle in the proper direction (it is marked "CLOSE" on the lid) then you will end up with a perfectly tight seal. If you do not hold the outside while doing this, the entire lid may spin and will not seal, you need the outer edge of the lid to stay in place - so hold it there with your fingertips while you twist the top.

It is actually very easy once you understand the concept. Hold the outside, twist the top.


Now for the minor down-side: These do measure in LITERS, not quarts or gallons as most Americans are used to so adjustments to recipes would have to be made and you may have to use more than one pitcher if transferring gallons & such. I have spent so much money searching for a worthy refrigerator pitcher and never did find one. I came across these Italian imports for only $4.99 and $7.99 each at the C*ntainer St*re and I am going to buy more for sure.

Also, one reviewer mentioned that it was difficult to grasp the handle. I have large hands for a female and I can still manage to hold it easily, but my fiance who is 6'4" and 240 lbs. complained about the handle as well. Just be careful while holding it, I think they are still the best ever!

I will definitely recommend these to my friends & family.

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific Refrigerator Pitcher, March 5, 2007

*****
These pitchers are very sturdy and heavy. They fit beautifully on the inside door of my refrigerator. They don't leach chemicals into my beverages, either. They take up very little space (they are squared not rounded so they fit well all lined up) and are attractive. If you are looking for a healthy option to plastic, this is it. They also have a nice snug lid to keep things fresh. The lid can be turned to an "open" position like many pitchers so that the lid doesn't have to be removed to pour.

The pitchers are attractive and not chinsy-looking like plastic pitchers. Buy more than one not only to save on shipping and handling, but because you'll want more for sure! I bought six and am very happy with them.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice Glass Pitcher, June 29, 2007

I bought 2 of these to keep water chilled in the frig and they work nicely. You wouldn't want them any larger or they would be too heavy, especially for kids. I read reviews where people said the lid was to loose, but they didn't read the instructions. You have to push down and twist for a snug fit. We don't even use the lids- so not an issue!
