The description says 3-cup tea pot. Does that mean 24 oz. tea pot? Or is three cups not an accurate measurement

Three cups as in one gets three regular sized cups of tea from it. I really like mine.

I use 12 ounce cups and I get 2 cups, so if it is meant the usual 8 ounce,either way it is 24 ounces. I have had crockery cups and tea pots in the past, but prefer glass cup with my glass teapot. Seems "fresher tasting!"

It actually means 3 tea cups, you know the ones your grandmother served at tea time. My granddaughter uses it and it holds a regular size coffee cup and a 1/2. Have a Great Day, hopes this helped.

The pot by itself, without the insert will hold 24 oz., but you don't get that much to drink once you put in the tea leaves. We usually get around 20 oz.

It does hold 24 ounces. I just went and filled the teapot with water and measured how much it was and, full nearly to the brim, it held 24 ounces.

40 fl ounces - that is, just volume, no loose tea or tea bags put in, up to the brim, though I never fill it beyond, approx. 32-34 fl oz. It's approx. 1.2L (I actually measured this to answer your question). It's a nice tea pot, I got this one to replace the one I got from the UK many years ago. I do NOT know where this tea pot was made (the bottom only says "Price and Kensington". Regardless of that, I am 100% happy with the quality of this tea pot AND the tea that I make in it tastes right (which is, of course, just a biased opinion).

Wouldn't that depend on the type of tea being used and how much is needed to brew a pot to your taste? I use it to brew rosehips tea in a 2 quart pan. I use different amounts depending how the rosehips is sent to me... chopped (1/2 a teaball) or broken blossoms (3/4 teaball). How much tea do you use to brew a 48 oz pot?

55 oz. sounds larger than the Standard "Brown Betty" tea pot we have. It seems to fit that one like a glove, larger I would doubt. Good luck!!!

A traditional tea cup is 6 ounces, 55 oz is closer to 60oz. When I make tea for my family, we have 4 12 oz mugs, and there is usually some left over.

It actually holds more than 12 ounces of water. I have a small 12 ounce mug that I always use for my tea, and this teapot gives me one and a half mugs full.

It's a 3 ounce cup I think, I haven't used it yet but it is extremely cute!!

The cups hold 1/4 cup Each, the teapot holds a cup and a half.........I just measured using regulation measuring cups., hope this helps., I've purchased two of these sets, already.

The tea is good and strong. I would say at least two good cups and probably a third. Though I only brewed one cup at a time. The mugs I have are easily 16-18 oz to give you some perspective.

Wendy I can't answer your question exactly as Ive never measured the amount in 8 or 5 oz cups. But I do get several 12 oz mugs of tea from it as well as several 16 oz glasses of iced tea so it holds a generous amount of liquid. More than one might expect as I was genuinely surprised yet pleased with the amount when I received it. The rounded shape is what allows for that I believe and it's such a nice looking tea pot.

Miniature Size. The Teapot holds about 1 1/2 cups and the Teacups hold 3 Tablespoons at their fullest. It is the perfect size for preschool age children through age 6. My girls are 3 yrs and almost 2 yrs and they LOVE this.

I've found that most manufacturers think that a cup is approximately 6 oz. My PSB tea pot gives me about 3 mugs of tea. Hope this helps.

Mine says 5 cups BUT the cups are smaller 6oz or so...I would say you would get 3 mugs max.

Hello Willard. The capacity of the teapot is either 2 large mugfuls per pot, or 4 standard teacups.

Hello. As a matter of fact it is bigger than i thought. It can hold at least 2-3 Tablespoons, and its more intended to prepare a large quantity of tea rather than a single mug.

Measuring from side to side, the roundness, meaning the part that holds the liquid is about 7 inches wide, and when I turn the pot and measure from the Spout that is attached to the roundness and to the Handle that is attached to the roundness I get a total of 11 inches, and when I measure from the Base up to the Top it is 7 inches, and the Base itself is 5 inches in diameter. I love that it can hold 75 ounces because I make tea in the evening, and often times have enough to wake up to in the morning. If you are into impressing company with a tea set, the White Teapot is absolutely beautiful. So again, Roundness is 7 inches Spout to Handle for total of 11 inches Base to Top is 7 inches Diameter of Base is 5 inches

I believe mines holds about 4 cups. It is definitely smaller than the traditional Royal Albert Old Country Roses teapot. Hope that was helpful.
