Hi Sue! I'm sorry to hear about your trinitea. Have you heard anything back yet? If not, drop them a line at info@adagio.com . Be nice, and they'll probobly bend over backwards for you. :)
Sent it back at my expense and they said I would receive a refurbished unit -- not very happy about that. Anyway they received my unit on 2/13/06 and I have not heard anything yet.

This quote needs to be fixed!

A Women is like TEA...You don't know how strong she is until you put her in hot water...

At least you are getting a working unit back. Things could be worse, you could have no tea.

awww man...

hey sue,
sorry to hear that they are replacing your pot with a refurbished one. while i am glad it is getting replaced, i understand your fustration.

this seems like it is becoming a very common practice the last few years. the most flooring experience i have had was at Sears when returning a Craftsman tool that actually broke. they have a lifetime guarantee and it used to be that the broken tool simply needed to be presented at a store and a new one from the shelf was traded. the last time, we had a ratchet wrench break and a refurbished one was gotten out of the special case. we were severly disappointed as well. we inquired as to the reason why we were not given a new one and they said the policy had changed and this was more cost effective. :?

I thought maybe in this case it is because they are sold out of triniteas at this time and they are trying to at least keep her "in the tea" so to speak.

Actually, we are completely out of TriniTEAs. We just sent the last unit out yesterday. Anyone returning a defective one will be getting a refund instead of a replacement. We are hoping to have a new version available in a few months.

You can blame my ex-girlfriend's dad. The guy would not set foot in Sears without bringing a tool to have replaced!

We're still playing around with the design/functionality, but hope to have it available sometime in August.
