How well do the two pitchers pour? I would prefer the short pitcher, but the pour spout seems shorter than the tall pitcher.

The short pitcher pours fine. I make smoothies and pour it into a regular glass no problems. Plus the short pitcher fits under my cabinets.

I love the short picture becase it fits perfectly under my counter on the base. I think it pours perfectly.

I have the short pitcher VERSA and it pours well into large openings like glasses or jars. The spout is about 2 inches across, so you might encounter some problems with pouring into 3 inch openings or less. The spout is also square (ish) and tends to retain a drop or so to decorate your counter. Hope this helps.

We own the short pitcher in this newer model. It pours fine, no problems. It holds the same as the taller/narrower pitcher, but (1) fits well between the countertop and the overhanging kitchen cabinets, and (2) is wider, so removing tenacious things, like nut butters, is easier.

Hi, no. These 10.5 oz glasses are a nice weight glass and stand 7" tall. The 76oz pitcher is also glass and stands 11" to the top of the spout rim. I only wish the stems were a bit taller.

Yes. I've been making iced tea in mine and pouring boiling water directly into the pitcher. No hint of a problem. As always when putting hot liquids in glass, it's best to pour in a little and swirl it around to heat the glass a bit before pouring in the rest.

Tall cup holds 3 cups, but you won't want to put that much in there so that it has room to work. Pitcher, holds about the same, for mixing, according to the 'max' mark on the side. I have only used the pitcher as a pitcher, and not to mix in. If only holding fluids, the pitcher can hold about 6 cups. Love this machine. I use it every day.

a) You may have to adjust the amount of tea in the top to make the tea to your liking. b) When you add water to the first line and pour it in the brewer, then add ice up to the first line, it won't overfill the pitcher when it's brewed.

I had no problem with the spout. I did with the size of the stopper. It was to small. So have not used it.

I had this problem, too, until I realized I wasn't opening the spout completely. Try pushing down on the black push button on top until it's completely depressed, then pouring. I had no problems after that.

Yes, it still has a "dribble" problem when you pour. I haven't really figured out why, other than some mornings it dribbles and others it doesn't. Might have something to do with how fast I need that first cup. I just keep a paper towel handy. I would still buy another one. I really like the idea behind not having to worry about a warming unit being left on.

I always use the pitcher but if you want to use a cup make sure the spout on the juicer is positioned at the right angle to hit the cup. Using a tall glass may also ensure the juice will hit the glass too.

I only had that problem once. Make sure you have the filter compartment placed in, wide end ( see pitcher illustration ) to front, and the top must have lid filler end towards the handle. ( the shortened end of lid to the spout)

With a intentional pour it pours ok. Be carful if contents are hot of course. Pouring slowly it drips.

Let me know if you find anything... I'm having the exact same problem. Lock n Lock pitchers work really well for my mom and sis -- but the gallon size is too tall for my small fridge. :-/

I'm using a wide 4" glass but it could be a bit taller. I then decant into a glass pitcher.

Either pre heat the pitcher with hot but not boiling water or put a metal knife in the pitcher before you pour in boiling water. Pre heating works best. Glass just doesn't expand very fast.

My daughter and I pour boiling water into it to make tea. HOWEVER, we do use an old 'trick' my mom taught me, and that is to put a long metal spoon or metal tongs into the pitcher before we pour the hot water. We don't know if this is something actually necessary, but haven't gotten up the nerve to NOT use this 'trick' every time. Hope that helps!

I can't say I've had this problem with these measuring cups (or others I've owned). I agree with Dale's answer that a 'confident' pour makes a difference.

there are two settings for the amount of throw for the handle. mine is set at short and it doesn't protrude more than 1.5 inches past the spigot shaft.
