"(The Toddy) is the ultimate coffee maker." -The Washington Post Now you can create a 'coffeehouse' coffee - served steaming hot or iced cold, and in the comfort of your home - for much less than expensive signature coffee drinks! As important as those fresh roasted beans are to your cup of coffee, it's what you do with them that counts the most. In 1964, as a chemical engineering graduate of Cornell, Todd Simpson developed and patented a cold brew system that, using regular coffee beans, creates a superior-tasting cup of steaming HOT coffee. And, with 67% LESS ACID than coffee made by conventional hot brew methods, it's easier on sensitive stomachs. The Toddy coffee maker extracts the coffee bean's true delicious flavor and eliminates much of the acidity, producing a bold, super-smooth coffee that can be served one cup at a time. The Toddy brewer is also ideal for making tea - served hot or over ice. What's in the box: Brewing Container with Handle, Glass Decanter with Lid, Reusable Filters (2), Rubber Stopper (1), Instructions & Recipe Guide.

I really like the flavor of cold brewed coffee, my coffee toddy removes all the bitterness and I don't have to wait for the brewing to finish. Just a zap in the microwave and out the door.

If you want to buy something and never use it..this is your product!
(I thought it was a great idea when someone at work made the coffee for me!)

It works great, but I think it is a little expensive for just flimsy plastic and glass

Reading all the glowing reviews here on Amazon, I really thought this was a seriously great idea. I never imagined it would turn out to be such a horrible ordeal. If you like to take a shower to get the coffee grounds off you and clean your entire kitchen coffee wasteland after making a batch of pukishly mediocre coffee this is really for you. It's not mine, and I regr3t the day I heard of this pi3c3 of sh33t. What a disaster, the second batch was even worse... F$*#ing disaster in the kitchen, this thing can't handle a pound of coffee and all the water they say to add, #@#$me.. Where's Gordon Ramsay when you need him, someone needs a serious chewing out about this cluster##$%. Mr. Coffee, my faithful friend, I'm so sorry I doubted you, please come back and let's cuddle darling....

The Toddy Products company earns a grade of F for their customer service! When my new Cold Toddy brewing system arrived from Amazon, a part was missing. So I phoned Amazon and was told to phone the company. Fine... So I called Toddy Products "customer service," and explained what had happened. They TRIED TO CHARGE ME for the missing part and shipping! When I protested (I told them, "This is NOT good customer service!"), the teenybopper on the phone argued with me, saying "We have nothing to do with Amazon." [but they MANUFACTURED THE PRODUCT!] I pointed out that I paid for the product in good faith and that all of the components should have been included, to which she replied "but it's only $XX.XX." At that point I asked for a supervisor, and was placed on hold... or so she thought! The phone wasn't on hold, it was OPEN MIC. For the next 2-1/2 minutes or so I was subjected to hearing three pimple-faced teens laughing hysterically and mocking me (the girl repeated what I said in a high-pitched voice, and some pubescent pimple-faced kid was criticizing me left and right). It was reminiscent of being in a McDonald's on a weekday at 3:30 PM, after the junior high kids are out of school. Finally, their babysitter/mother came to the phone and told me very professionally that it would be shipped out to me right away.
That experience left me so disgusted and angry that I felt that management needed to know what kind of "professionalism" was being projected, and I knew better than to call Customer Service again and get the same idiots. So I went online and found contact info for a former principal of the company. Despite the intrusion, he was VERY gracious and informed me that the company had been sold in January 2010. He is in contact with the current Toddy Products owners/officers and sent off an e-mail right away asking someone to contact me. I NEVER HEARD FROM THEM.
FINALLY, two weeks later, I phoned the company's customer service again because the missing part had still not yet arrived. (My state is adjacent to Texas, and the part should have arrived in a few days at the latest via USPS). They claimed that the part had been mailed the week before but promised to mail me another one. A couple of days later, BOTH of them were in my mailbox with the EXACT SAME DATE (a few days prior) stamped on the shipping label!! So obviously she had lied about mailing it the previous week.
After all that, I can only conclude that Toddy Products doesn't care one whit about their customers. (Another reviewer here called them "disorganized," which I think is being charitable.) I will NEVER deal with them again if I can help it, even if it means using some other filter. WHEN (not if, see below) this breaks I will switch brands.
RE the product itself, I have to agree with numerous reviewers here. These are the thinnest, cheapest, flimsiest parts I have ever seen. The glass carafe is so thin it seems as if it will shatter if one breathes on it too hard!!
Based on the above I should be giving this product one star. But I have to admit that it makes superb coffee, so I am giving it two stars.
