I'd been hoping to find a nice glass pitcher with a lid to preserve the flavor of beverage while in the fridge. I expected this to be a hand blown glass pitcher with a lid. The pitcher itself has a very noticeable seam indicating it is molded not blown. I have a smaller hand blown serving pitcher without a lid and there is no seam. The lid only fits the infuser insert. Infusers are a bit of a gimmick. The tube limits the exposure of the liquid to the extractive (fruit and such). I understand the benefit is to easily remove the spent extractive from the beverage. But there's no reason not to put fruit and such directly into the pitcher. Without the infuser insert the lid can not be used on the pitcher. Otherwise, the pitcher looks as pictured but seems a little more delicate than expected.
12/14 Update A few weeks in, only a couple of uses, the insert shattered during an insert it slipped out of my fingers and fell into place with slight force but it shattered. The lid survived but is useless. In a separate incident the pitcher somehow cracked where the top of the handle is connected to the top of the pitcher. I cannot recommend this pitcher.
Final update, I tapped the spout area against the inside of the sink while washing and the thing shattered. Money down the drain, goodbye.
(Let me know if any of you run across a nice quality glass pitcher with a lid.)

This thing is cheap, cheap, cheap! I just lost a second one...when the handle came off the pitcher...yes, just broke off as I was taking it out of the fridge. The glass shattered into a million tiny pieces...onto my counter which had food on it from dinner. Had to clean up the mess and throw out all the food. The first one broke when I closed the door on the handle. I didn't slam it hard, but I figured it was my fault. So I got the second one.Best Deals for Artland Simplicity Flavor-Infusing Pitcher
Friends of mine bought this pitcher. I loved it! It was so beautiful and even with just lemons and water. It was the best tasting beverage I've ever had. So great that I was going to spend $40 to buy one for myself. However, on the second day they had it, the insert shattered when removing the lid. Like another reviewer said, the lid is now useless. I wish my friend's husband read these reviews more carefully before he purchased this item. Too bad....this could have been such a great pitcher!Honest reviews on Artland Simplicity Flavor-Infusing Pitcher
After three uses the lid shattered in my hand when I went to pull it off. It cut a nerve in my hand and now I have to see a hand specialist. Do not buy!Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Artland Simplicity Flavor-Infusing Pitcher
It was a beautiful pitcher and we were excited about getting this pitcher for the summer. First time we used it my son was pouring a glass and carefully I might add. The infuser part touched the pitcher as we poured it and it just shattered. Thankfully he wasn't hurt.Then I thought okay there goes the infuser part. So I thought well we will just the pitcher part of then because it is still usable. So the second time we used it was good until after we used it we went to wash it and the handle came off in my hand and the pitcher was room temp so not going from cold to hot..yes in my hand and then the pitcher cracked all the way up.. Thankfully I wasn't hurt in this incident. Poor Quality!!!!
