Tea Infuser, Extra Fine Mesh Tea Strainer with Silicone Lid, 304 Stainless Steel Tea Infusers for Loose Tea, Tea Steeper Basket Filter for Teapot, Mug, Cup

Excellent product. Impressed with the design. VERY fine holes that trap ALL solids, but still allow the tea through quickly. No sharp edges anywhere. Fits in any of my cups, and even in my 1 pint thermos. The insulated lid really impressed me: It's a perfect lid while steeping, then turned upside down, the lid becomes a snug base for the strainer to sit on while draining the last drops of liquid. I've had it a few months, and it looks like it'll last for years.

My work offers free Celestial Seasonings herbal tea bags, so I've been drinking peppermint and lemon zinger instead of water. Recently I learned that tea bags emit tons of microplastics, including Celestial's, so I tried out a diffuser sphere. It was an unpleasant experience, Celestial's peppermint tea is pretty fine and led to a gritty tea. This strainer is a big improvement. It still lets fine particles through, but it's much more pleasant. I like how I can collect tea over multiple multiple days and mix flavors. I like how large the strainer is for shaking the tea out of the bag, and how nicely it sits in my tall yeti mug. I like sealing the top while it steeps, and inverting the lid to hold the strainer and its juices at my desk. Cleaning is easy, and the construction is durable enough to transport home in my backpack. The tab is nice for swirling the tea around.

Works amazingly well and is my go-to when steeping loose leaf tea now. These are pretty large and give the tea leaves plenty of room to expand while they steep which is what I was looking for. The mesh is very fine also and doesn't let much slip through. I loved it so much I purchased a second one to keep in rotation. They also rinse really easy and do great in the dishwasher. Much easier than trying to clean out the little ball infusers. 10/10.

I bought 2 of these strainers. One I absolutely love and it works perfectly. The other, as you can see, is bent in all the wrong places. Fortunately I was able to bend the pieces enough to ser e the strainers purpose effectively.. I would have given this 5 stars if not for the defects. Saying that, I will be ordering more, hoping it was a one time mistake. Other than that, the strainers are awesome and are perfect for my needs. I love the cover/holder for the strainer. The strainers fit inside an 8 oz mug well but you might have an issue using that amount of water in a taller mug (the water level won't be high enough to fully soak tea leaves). This is a great product and I would recommend it.

Better than tea balls! Keeps all the tea leafs from filtering into your tea. Easy to use & clean. Love that this is stainless steel & quality.

The media could not be loaded. I had one similar to this one but it broke so I read through review on all the ones in this style and I am absolutely happy about this purchase! It's more sturdy then my last one, has smaller holes so the teas doesnt go through, can hold alot of tea if you wanted to do a large mug or bottle and need it stronger. I love that it comes with a top so it can steep and it's easy to clean which is a big win for me as well and does the job perfect!

Excellent. Works with large teapots.

Well-made strainer. Doesn't let through even broken leaves, yet it is easy to clean. I got one for work over a year ago, and it still looks as new, with no staining whatsoever.
