Fiesta 496-324 Review by Ann Joy (Hyannis, Ma United States)
Have been looking for a simple teapot that can withstand daily use. I found this Cobalt Teapot and ordered it! It looks good with any setting and holds quite a bit-enough for 4-5 cups of tea. Does not give tea an off-taste. Handle gets a tad bit hot lower end, but not enough to cause a burn. This would make a very nice gift for any tea drinker!

I have fiesta dinnerware and have been needing a teapot. It is pretty, sturdy, and holds just the right amount.
Fiesta 496-324 Review by Marie Corwin (BUTNER, NC, US)
I'm a Fiesta collector and I use most everything I have daily. I also have a collection of fine china teapots eg: Wedgwood. What surprises me most is that the Fiesta teapot is getting a poor rating.
Fiesta is ceramic. Other reviews here seem to suggest that they are putting this on the stove. Ceramic pieces are not to be used on a stovetop. Fiesta is oven and microwave safe but certainly not for the stovetop. I imagine it would be too hot in such a situation, I'm impressed that it didn't shatter on a stovetop.
Perhaps the best way to explain how it should be used, and why other reviewers are unhappy with it, is to compare it to a fine china teapot. A fine china teapot does not heat the water in any way. Water is boiled in a metal pot. The tea is put into the teapot and the boiling water is poured over it. Actually if the china is valuable the teapot would be warmed up in advance so that the contrast between cold/ room temp and boiling doesn't crack the glaze or, in fact, shatter the ceramic. The cover is then put on and the tea is allowed to steep for some minutes (depending on how strong you want the tea.) Ceramic teapots typically don't have holes in the lid to keep the tea hot. The basic physics then is the cause of many of the problems other reviewers are having with pouring. There is no way for air to enter the teapot as water flows out. So the tea needs to be poured slowly and evenly. This avoids the spurts of tea that will come out which I believe is what other reviewers are experiencing. Any ceramic teapot should be poured with 2 hands. Certainly nearly impossible to control the flow with one hand. I find the handle to be sufficient. Personally I don't heat water in anything but a metal pot so I can't comment on using a teapot in the microwave. Frequently I microwave food on a Fiesta plate or use the cookware for baking. The Fiesta does get hot.
The need for a diffuser is valid if you are using loose tea. But I don't believe that I've ever bought a teapot with a diffuser. Those are typically sold in a upper scale kitchen store.
Obviously reviews are always the collision of expectations and reality. None of us will ever have the same one. I also love the design, and the colors of Fiesta. Looking at my Fiesta daily is comforting to me for nostalgic reasons. So I'm a BIG Fiesta fan.
Buy American, save American jobs! I can think of no better example of a product made in the US that is superior to it's Asian produced competition. And it's made in West Virginia.
