1st of all anyone who has had the square (https://smile.amazon.com/Mr-Coffee-Maker-Strength-Selector/dp/B01JSG272U/ref=sr_1_18?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1497720371&sr=1-18&keywords=iced+tea+maker) or round (https://smile.amazon.com/Mr-Coffee-2-Quart-Maker-Bagged/dp/B00005OTXI/ref=sr_1_1?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1497720371&sr=1-1&keywords=iced+tea+maker) plastic “Mr Tea” ones should NOT be complaining about this one….I have (had) one of those and it leaked all over my counter repeatedly they’re incredibly hard to line up. This one NOT A PROBLEM if I wanted to I could brew into a tea cup.
2nd I should say I was stupid the 1st time I tried to brew this….I thought it needed to stay folded so that the top of the water reservoir was covered (it shouldn’t be) so I ended up brewing tea right back into the water reservoir lol my mistake…but even reading the instructions the 2nd time through it doesn’t read all that clear…don’t do like I did…brew like it shows in the picture.
3rd….ok so the pitcher SEEMS fragile it does…..I’m betting on people taking the hot tea and (therefor) pitcher and putting it directly in the cold fridge (don’t do that)….anyone ever take a pan off the stove and plunge it into water immediately after? anyone have a pan warp because of that? Same deal but this is glass you’re “trying” to warp. I personally make a gallon of this at a time and pour into a gallon “sweet tea” jug from the store….so i’m not going to have this problem BUT the way the brewing process is set up…..seriously i could brew directly into another cup….grab a dollar large cup from McDonalds and brew into that if your pitcher breaks (yes i know not like you want your pitcher to break but IT’S NOT A BIG DEAL IF IT DOES). I was all worried that it had to mate up or something…nope it drops out of about a 5″ wide steeping basket directly in the middle.
The ONLY reason I didn’t give 5 stars is 1 the pitcher IS fragile and they have a plastic one on display at the store…so they COULD give you a plastic one (but don’t) and…..it doesn’t brew that much…I’m used to the 3 QT one and thought “meh what’s half a quart” it matters….at least on the 1st gallon I brewed but then again I did screw the 1st one up….so hard to tell how it’s going to work out for me.

I love my Mr coffee iced tea maker. With the brew strength I can select what strength I want with two iced tea bags and just a little boost of the string selector I have outstanding tea. The glass picture is excellent because I know it doesn’t retain flavors and I can clean it without any residue left behind and I just absolutely love that. The glass picture is also beautiful to look at when on a table and a nice serving piece. I use Luziane iced tea bags.

Our ice tea system was delivered a few days ago and I just made our 8th pitcher of tea. One thing I cannot stress enough is to read the directions thoroughly, otherwise you might experience the following like we did:
-think the unit does not work since you did not slide the dispenser over which caused your tea to be put into the water reservoir
-look at the amount of tea made in the pitcher and wonder why this machine is worth it (ice and/or additional water is a necessity).
After a few small missteps from not reading the directions thoroughly, I can now say that I love our new tea maker. Some thoughts:
-we are heeding the other reviewer warnings about treating the pitcher with extra TLC. Only hand washing though supposedly it is dish washer safe.
-we are brewing it with the 7 individual bags on the strongest setting to yield our results
-we are putting some ice in when brewing, adding water to the “ice” line after brewing and then adding a few ice cubes when pouring a drink. It turns out a glass of tea that you would get at most restaurants. My original disappointment was thinking that the liquid as brewed was the finished product. Not true. It needs more ice or water to dilute, hence why they have you add ice or water to the ice line.
-we have been drinking tea instead of soda and coffee since getting it. I drink it unsweetened and my husband adds sugar to his glass for sweet tea. I have added some lemon juice to some of the batches.
So far this is a keeper. I had delayed the purchase for a few months since I was worried it would go the way of our soda stream (use for 2 months and not again). Unlike the soda stream, the continued cost expended is just for the tea and that is a lot cheaper than soda or seltzer.
My husband was not on board with the purchase at first since he liked to just use cold brew bags. I never cared for the patience required and I always felt like it was either too weak or horribly bitter since the bag sits in the water for so long. He has quickly adjusted to the new machine and the new machine makes superior tea.
The photos show a) it starting to brew b) how much is brewed even with ice already in it (so I do add water when done) and c) what the color/strength is when added to a glass with a few pieces of ice when done.

So, I have bought this tea maker three times. This tells you two things: 1). I really love this tea maker. It is actually very pretty and looks high end. 2). It does not last long, about one to two years on average.
Granted, I use this tea maker every other day to make a large pitcher of iced tea, so it does get a work out. However, the cup where you place the tea bags during brewing is fatally flawed. I am on my third tea maker because each lasts one to two years. After that point, the cup starts sagging, and the result is that the tea no longer goes into the pitcher. Instead, it flows out over the sides and onto the counter top and floor. At that point, the tea maker is trash.
Unlike others, I still have all three of the pitchers. They are glass, but you just have to be careful with them, and they hold up just fine. The glass is actually fairly heavy.
My advice is to decide if the looks make the short life of this appliance worth the fact that you will have to replace it fairly regularly. For me, the balance is there, but for others, the value would be lacking.
