Do you have to take the lid off in order to pour the contents? I'm looking for just a water (not juice pitcher), and wondering if this will be ok.

You don't have to take the lid all the way off. You can unscrew it half way and there is a space to pour through.

No, you do not HAVE to take the lid off to pour the contents, but you can do that if you would like. There are two separate spouts in the lid for pouring: an open area and a slotted area, used for straining. We use our pitcher mostly for tea, but water could definitely be used in this, too.

No you don't. You twist the lid a bit and it opens to reveal an opening in which the liquid can pour from. Hope this helps. We use ours for water as well..it works great.

The lid covers the slight protrusion for pouring. It is not open like a tea pot or something.

no you do not have to take the lid off, it is like a tervis with a sliding sippy cup hole

Lid would only be in contact with boiling water if you over filled it, and you can pour without opening the lid.

It doesn't have lid that you can drink out of, just a top that screws on, so only way to drink out is taking lid completely off. So not really designed to drink out of.

Not really. I take the basket out before I pour the coffee. Sometimes, if I don't put the basket lid on well enough, the boiling will make it come off a little, but that's operator error. Make sure the lid is tight on the basket and it will be fine.

you have to lift the lid.... this is not the item that they sent me. it was the item that i ordered... but they made a mistake... and i am soooooo glad they did. i got the one where you lift the coffee and reservoir out and pour the water in. much, much, much nicer than this model. i have both models now... this one i took to camp and when it goes, i will replace it with the one they sent me by mistake....

Basically yes. There is no separate pour spout, the water pours out the top. Notice there is a big lever on the back of the lid, so it's very simple to do.

There are prongs that click the lid in place. You can rotate the lid to 3 functional positions; free-pour, strained-pour, or no-pour. However, the lid is not watertight- if you put water in it & shake, some water will splash out even if the lid is in no-pour position. It's tight enough, though, that putting a layer of plastic wrap between lid & pitcher would largely/completely seal it.

no.. just a "thermos styled" shaker... there is a valve in the top that you can close or open and the lid screws on/off... measure/? who measures?? haha... long live the "free pour"...

The lid doesn't have a separate attaching mechanism, but it stays on very securely as soon as you close it. In the few months I've been using this pitcher, it has never fallen off while pouring, even when I'm down to the last few drops.

Full glass. The lid is plastic. No the level of the water doesn't reach the lid. No you don't have to open it to pour out but to add water you do There is a filter on the lid for pouring out

Yes. The lid for water receptacle is at the top of the machine so you just lift & pour. If pouring from a mug is difficult you can always pour from a container that is easier

Hi...Yes there is a spout that you can pour in from the top without removing the lid. Be very careful washing the glass jar. its heavy glass but I dropped mine into the sink and it broke.

Hi. I have one of these, and I can take the lid off of mine without removing it from the base.

Yes, but not really necessary if you shake the brush out after you use it. Dripping isn't really a problem. And what would you plan to do with the lid?
