Borosil Carafe Flame Proof Glass Kettle with Stainer, 1L & Vision Glass Set, 295ml, Set of 6, Transparent Combo

Been using this for a month and a half or so now, primarily to boil milk everyday. I use it mostly in the microwave, but have used it on the stovetop a couple of times. What I love is that it doesn't burn the milk if I repeatedly reheat milk. Steel vessels invariably burn the milk a little making it difficult to clean.The good news is - it hasn't cracked or broken. But note that I do use it with some precautions:1) Don't put fridge-cold milk in it and keep it on a high flame. If possible, after you take cold milk from the fridge, let it stay out for 30 minutes till it is not as cold. OR heat it on a low flame or low power for a minute or two.2) Don't take it from a hot environment (stove top or microwave) right after the milk/water boils and put it on a cold granite counter or cold steel plate. Let it stay on the stove or in the microwave for 5-10 minutes - pick it up and pour out the milk or tea into a cup and put it back in the same place.3) When it's on the stove make sure the handle is not directly exposed to the flame - rotate the handle away from adjacent flames.I wash it in the dishwasher, comes out sparking clean with no traces of milk. So I am really loving he versatility of this product!Note that after about 20days of use, the plastic handle snapped. I contacted Amazon customer service. They asked me to email the seller cloudtail, who put me in touch with borosil's customer service. And within a week or 10 days - I received a replacement handle. Good service. Efficient. I easily replaced the broken handle on the glass body and my carafe was as good as new! Now I'm again using it as before - microwave, stove, and dishwasher. All is well.

Excellent product

At first I used the carafe on the stove top very carefully on simmer only, half expecting it to shatter, but after a few months of use I've grown so confident with it that I use it on regular flame and sometimes even forget it's on the stove and leave it boiling water for quite a while before taking it off the flame. It's passed the test with flying colours. It boils water quickly enough and looks beautiful on the stove. Fantastic product from Borosil!Update after about six months of daily usage: It cracked very gracefully while boiling a small quantity of water (about 250ml). The water didn't leak out of the kettle - I just heard it crack and the flame sizzled for a second.

While the item was placed today evening for making tea on the Gas woven, it broke down. I am useing Borosil items for more than 32 years. But today was frustrated and dejected by the item's performance. Even my Gas woven was badly affected.I would like Amazon to replace the item.

Cracked after 3 instances of use on stovetop. Very low quality glass that is not stovetop or dishwasher safe. Please dont waste money.

can make tea or noodles in it. no problem. It is good. But i actually bought to boil and re-heat milk for tea. That doesn't work too well. The first time around the milk boils well, but as you go on re-heating it in the same jug, the milk starts burning and sticking on the sides of the jug. The burnt milk is very difficult to clean unless of course, you soak it in warm soapy water for a long time and then try to scrub it away. too much effort...Also, the jug does not fit into the bottle shelves of the fridge door. I needed something tall and narrow to fit into the fridge door and I wanted to be able to heat and re-heat milk without bothering about cleaning the vessel often. Both objectives not met.

When it is borosil, look no further.

I was a bit worried befor looking at the pics, thinking it would be very fragile, but after purchasing it, it turned out to be everything it promised. I use it to boil mostly water on the gas stove for my green tea. And boy it can handle the flames. Just follow the instructions in the manual and you are good to go. Cleaning is so easy, i mean literally super easy. Glass quality is top notch, and the plastic bit on top are pretty high quality and sturdy. Been 2 months i am using it, and it is as good as new.

Was waiting for a burner friendly carafe for long time and got it from Amazon

Weird burning smell came out from it after been used in Microwave few times but it suppose to be microwave proof and strainer's hole are too big that they can't even strain tea leaves. I am demanding an refund for this item.
