The stainless steel teapot warmer from Creano made a very good impression in our test.
The product is suitablefor keeping teapots, coffee pots and mugs warm. It is therefore ideal for all Creano teapots, but teapots from other manufacturers with a maximum teapot base diameter of 15 cm are also suitable for the teapot warmer.
At cosy dusk, a fantastic play of light floods the teapot teapot and spreads across the entire table with a fantastic look. This transforms simple elegance in daylight into a multi-faceted play of light in the dark.
The product can also be put in the dishwasher for cleaning.
Advantages
✅ Jugs with base diameter max 15cm
✅ Company from Germany
✅ Beautiful play of light
✅ Dishwasher safe
Disadvantages
❌ No 500ml cans

The first impression
The packaging and labelling
ℹ️ Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be ensured.
Criterion | Remark | Points achieved* |
---|---|---|
Product protection | Carton is sturdy, product sufficiently protected | 100 points |
Sustainability Packaging | Item was packed compactly, the product came in a bubble wrap for better protection | 90 points |
Total | 95 points |
*The maximum score is 100 points
The Creano stainless steel teapot arrived in a standard cardboard box. The box was undamaged and easy to open. The box contained the product and a tea light holder. Both were wrapped in plastic film. The plastic bag around the insert might not have been necessary, but the bubble wrap around the teapot protected it from dirt and scratches. In this case, the product was fully protected and the teapot was therefore in perfect condition.
The packaging of the product is partially recyclable, but the plastic bag is unfortunately not recyclable. Overall, the Creano teapot makes a very good impression.

The teapot is made of stainless steel. The round product has leaf-shaped cut-outs on the top and side edges.

*The maximum score is 100 points
We really enjoyed using the Cerano tea warmer during the test. It is easy to handle and the additional insert for the tea light minimises soiling from wax. The teapot stands firmly and securely on the table and is also very well and securely made. When used at dusk, the ornaments create a fascinating play of light on the surroundings. The teapot stands very well on the teapot warmer and the folded ring on the outside means that it is almost impossible for it to accidentally slip down. All in all, a great product.
Price/performance ratio
and ratings from consumers
ℹ️ Finally, we look at how the product compares to the competition. Can it keep up with the competition in terms of price and quality? Would we generally recommend buying it? We also analyse consumer reviews and check whether the critical and positive reviews are actually justified.

*The maximum score is 100 points
On the Amazon platform, consumers have given the product an average rating of 4.7 stars. They often criticise that the workmanship leaves something to be desired. Many customers like the fact that the product is visually very attractive and “paints” a great light image. The heat output is very good. In our practical test, we were able to confirm that the teapot made avery good impression on us.
Prices of up to €16 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very inexpensive products are available from just €12. With a price of €14.99, the Creano stainless steel teapot is currently in the middle price segment. The price ratio is good for the quality and scope of services you get.
