Hario Mizudashi vs Willow & Everett Side-by-Side Comparison

Overall Verdict
The aesthetics of the Hario Mizudashi and Willow & Everett brewers could not be more different. The Hario is quite tall and slender, ideally suited for in-door brewing even in a small refrigerator. Apart from its poor brew ratio (1:14), the Hario is not airtight. It produced one of the poorest quality brews for an immersion filter brewer and is a brewer we recommend you avoid.
In stark contrast, the Willow & Everett has the appearance of a rotund barrel and the one gallon is one of the largest cold brew coffee makers. The Willow & Everett, compared to the Hario, produced one of the best quality brews for an immersion filter brewer.
However, the design and material quality of the Willow & Everett could be better. The lid is of poor quality, the spigot tap doesn’t always work well, and the surrounding glass is fragile - more so with the half-gallon jar than the one gallon one.
