Does the lid fit on the top without the infuser?

On the 800 ml model the lid does not fit without the diffuser insert in the kettle. It's too small and would fall right in.

You know overall I didn't like it. I sent it back. It didn't loof pyrex to me and didn't see it anywhere on the product to say pyrex

Yes it does however the glass itself is very delicate i already replace 3 times, this is not the pyrex glass like years ago they were very thick and the the ones now are very delicate if just bang it with anything the glass will break, i am very disappointed myself. Good luck

There is no infuser. The opening in the porcelain pot is about 2" maybe 2.5" ( I didn't measure it.) My husband puts in loose leaf tea and strains it when he pours. We started using this in Aug 2013 and have had no problems over the last 8 mo. My husband uses it everyday, and on the weekend it's on all day.

Yes. The infuser is attached to the lid. The little lever on the side raises the infuser cup to the bottom of the lid. I also found it easier to clean than the cup I use in my single dose coffee machine.

Yes. Just make sure the amount of water you pour in will cover all of the loose leaf tea in the infuser.

Lid fits securely when infusor or ice chamber is removed. (screwed out of the center) Please note that while the lid is secure, you can still pour a small amount of beverage out even if the lid dispensing holes are not lined up with the spout. Great unit...I use daily.

It can certainly be placed on the top during infusion, but does not fit like a lid.This is an excellent item!

The lid and infuser are separate, but the lid is designed to fit inside the infuser. Removing the infuser makes the lid loose fitting requiring a 2 hand pour

Yes! you can put the lid on without the infuser too....enjoy the blooming tea...I love this pot

Yes, it is flush with the opening , slightly recessed into the teapot like Asian style teapots. The infuser basket almost touches the bottom of the teapot but not completely.

No. The only metal is the infuser and lid. Don't fill up too high as it comes out the spout when it starts to boil.

No, the entire infuser, including handle, is roughly 3 inches wide (other people may have a more accurate estimate), so I'd think it will be too small.

No, unfortunately the lid only fits into the infuser so there won't be any heat insulation without the infuser. I'm not sure where it's made.

It has a fine wire basket inside. If that is an infuser - Yes it has one. I have not used mine. It is still in the box with two small cups.

The infuser will definitely not rest evenly on top of the mug, it is designed for a 3 inch mug, but it will work perfectly fine. I just tested it on a 4 inch mug and the handle keeps the infuser level. If you lip one side with the infuser and the handle of the infuser lips the other side it fits level. If you bump it and it "falls into" the mug, it just falls about a half inch into the mug, then jimmies sideways and works fine. Either case it will work. You might want to not will the cup to the brim in case the infuser falls into it.

If I understand your question correctly: if the mouth of the container (diameter) is wider than the distance between the hooked side and the end of the flat handle, then I don't think the infuser would stay in place (although perhaps you could use pliers to bend the hook further so that it clutches the rim of the container?). If the other side of the container's mouth will support the flat handle side, it's fine. I hope that helps!

I think it is...top shelf...to tell the truth I don't use the infuser...I just use to make hot water at different temps to use with an over the cup infuser...I've had the kettle for months now and love it

No .... The lid sits loosely on the top of the strainer. The lid is a nice feature because while the tea is steeping it covers the top. But then, when the tea is ready, the lid is a place to set the strainer on.
