Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Mr. Coffee TM3 Iced Tea Maker
Customer Review: Great Easy Iced Tea Brewer. Pitcher So So
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this Iced Tea Pitcher. I have used it for years and enjoy the ease with which it makes Iced Tea. We always just use water in pitcher and the brewer, let it cool, then stick it in another container in the fridge to get cold. Though I have used Ice to get a Quick Chill for parties. It works either way just as well.
The only downfall is the pitcher. Being a Brittle Clear plastic it does crack after a while.
But because the actually brewer is so easy to use, I put up with replacing the pitcher periodically. Seems a small price to pay for such an easy to use Iced Tea Brewer.
PS My formula is 4 Earl Grey Bags and 2 Lipton Bags. Marvelous!
Customer Review: Pitcher has cracks - only months old!
Summary: 2 Stars
Our first tea maker was a West Bend and we had it for 12 years but we started making tea so often that I decided to upgrade to a 3qt and gave the old one away. This pitcher is an acrylic type like our old one but this has started cracking at the spout where the tea drips down into the pitcher and it started within the first month. The tea is too hot and I believe that is what is causing it to crack. We have been filling it up with ice even so high as not to be able to put the lid on but it's no use as the tea comes in contact with this area first no matter what. We will be replacing it with a version we saw at Wal-Mart that has the plastic pitcher.Customer Review: Tea maker as replacement
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this Mr. Coffee Tea Maker to replace the one I had for about 8 years. The ON button just finally died but it was otherwise OK. This one works much the same as the previous one, much to my delight as I use it 1-2 times a week (so you see I got my money's worth out of the first one!). The major difference is that the plastic pitcher cannot be put in the dishwasher like the old one could. The quality/thickness of the plastic is a little less than my original. I can live with hand-washing the pitcher, however, just to get the same consistent taste to my iced tea. Plus, I can still use my old pitcher with the new stand as it fits just the same.Customer Review: Mr Coffee Iced Team Maker a failure
Summary: 1 Stars
After 3 years with an older Mr Coffee Iced tea maker - noted leaking when tea brewing. Thought it was from a faint crack at base of pitcher beneath spout. (though none leaked while in refrigerator...) Bought new TM75 - it leaks even worse! I thought I'd perhaps did not have the pitcher firmly in place - not so - it was perfectly placed. First 1/2 ounce or so flowed nicely into pitcher. After that - it all began leaking down front of team maker ! By the time it was done - counter was soaked; tea had leaked onto our Laminate flooring! Thank God I was right there to wipe up the spill before the flooring was ruined!!!!! Seriously dissappointed!Customer Review: really poor product
Summary: 1 Stars
When I purchased this product, the lady at the store said "be sure you keep your receipt". That should have been my first clue. After a month now of tea leaking all over the counter even though I try carefully to seat the pitcher near the brewing part of the machine and a couple of burns when I tried to fix it while it was brewing and leaking, I have thrown the piece of junk away. I did keep the pitcher to water my outside plants with although from what I read it is likely to crack given a little more time. I won't even comment on how unsanitary the pitcher looks after one or two uses. A really bad product.
