Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bormioli Rocco Kufra Glass Jug with Ice Container and Lid
Customer Review: An attractive pitcher with a slightly useless lid
Summary: 3 Stars
The only other 2-quart pitcher I own is a cheap Rubbermaid thing that claimed to be leakproof, but never pours without whatever liquid is inside dribbling out under the supposed seal on the lid. I had to hold a paper towel under the spout just to keep the counters dry when I wanted a drink. So I started looking for something better. I wanted something with a cover on just because I am paranoid about things falling into an open container in the fridge, and perhaps also to prevent spills. And there's all the buzz about how plastic is bad for food and drink storage, so I started looking into glass, and this seemed like a nice option.
Some things I discovered upon receiving the pitcher:
- The lid does not snap on, it simply rests on the top of the pitcher. It also has a wide opening with no cover over the spout. So if the pitcher were to get knocked over, it's not stopping the liquid from getting out. The opening also won't keep bugs out, if you're using it outside. I've also had it fall off while I was pouring a drink once.
- The pitcher can hold 2 quarts, IF the ice tube is left out. With the ice tube in I'd guess you could get about 1 quart of liquid in without it overflowing. The ice tube was not important to me, though it does occur to me that it might act to weight down the lid when attached and full.
-The ice tube is plastic, if you are very concerned about your drinks touching plastic.
-It dribbles a little while pouring, but at least it never promised to be leak proof like my old pitcher did. There may also be a trick to pouring without drips that I haven't learned yet.
On the upside, it is pretty, the stir stick seems like it could come in handy, and I can pour very hot water directly into the pitcher to brew iced tea without getting an extra container dirty. So while it's not perfect for what I originally wanted it for, I still like it. As long as you know ahead of time what you're really getting, this would not be a bad addition to your kitchen.
