Leaky -- but easily fixed

While the jar leaked when received, thanks to another review somewhere this was easily fixed by taking the following steps:

1. Unscrew the spigot.

2. Take the spigot to your local hardware store and find a hose washer that fits snugly over inside of the spigot (go to a small hardware store and ask a clerk).

3. Place the hose washer on the inside of the jar in between the plastic nut and the wall of the jar. Hand tighten.

4. While holding the nut in place, use a rag or a pliers to turn the spigot clockwise until it's a) tight, and b) properly aligned with the jar (close to vertical).

While this was a pain, this is the only GLASS Sun Tea jar of this style is was able to find anywhere. For a 50 cent washer and a little extra trouble, I now have exactly what I want.

Not working as I had hoped

The seal around the spigot was not attached.....they say in the literature never to remove the seal. I used super glue....it still leaked....then I waxed the seal....it still leaked. I finally got the seal to work. When I put the jar into the refrigerator (with the spigot just off the edge of the shelf so I could draw my tea from the spigot) the door would not close because of the spigot. So now, I pour my tea from the top of the jar....a big pain!

Iced tea, sun tea, lemonade, ice water, all those thirst-quenchers that get guzzled by the gallon on hot summer days can be easily dispensed using this spigot jar.
