The lid cannot be operated one-handed, and when you pour boiling water from a full pot (as when making iced tea) the water flashing behind the lid creates steam, and the pressure forces boiling water out of the spout at high speed. I have soaked a 1 foot radius pouring tea. Not good. The old Mirro never did that. UPDATE: This design is flawed in all except appearance.
