Recommend good (cheap) teapot?

Now that I am drinking and loving tea, I have decided I need a teapot, especially for the a.m. when I just get up and don't want to keep brewing a cup at a time. I would like to get one that will hold about

3-4 cups of 8ozs (24-32oz), but I am not sure what I should start with. Here is one that I think I would like, in yellow of course:

Your thoughts? It even has an infuser with it. But then again, I like the look of the cast iron Chinese teapots:

but they look as if they would cool faster than the ceramic ones and are much more expensive.

You tea purists know all the answers and I need your help now.

Thanks in advance for it. BabyJane Hudson

It you want a teapot for looks, then go with the cast iron. But don't expect to get good results with the teas you brew in them. I always find the metal of the pot interferes with the true flavor of the tea.

If you're into trying new, moderate priced expensive teas (whole leaf, not bag), then go with the chatsford teapot. It won't interfere much with the taste of the tea; meaning you can enjoy your teas better, and appreciate the flavor and aroma better.
