The Tea Spot

Take precision tea steeping to new heights with this fine stainless steel tea basket. Numerous micro holes line the walls of this structured metal filter allowing for three critical processes that lead to great-tasting tea: 1) cross-flow in a large volume basket releases full-bodied tea infusions, 2) fine filtering so that even the smallest leaf bits and herbals, like rooibos, don't escape into your infusion, and 3) rapid draining when your infusion is complete allows for precise steeping and re-steeping. Go ahead and turn any mug into your tea mug, and start steeping like a boss!

Disappointed!

I purchased this on March 12 and have used it every day since. At first it held up with no separation between the basket and the bottom which I didn't think was removable. Than one day the bottom came off. So I thought I was mistaken and it was removable. But since the bottom started coming off it doesn't always hold on anymore and sometimes when I pull the filter up out of the cup the bottom falls off dumping all the filtered tea into the cup which makes a big mess.

To tell you the truth I am not sure the bottom was meant to be removable or not, but for the price of this filter I am not happy with the mess it is now making more often than not.

You are correct, the bottom part is supposed to stay intact and isn't removable. I've created the replacement order for your stainless steel filter basket, so you may have already received an email stating your replacement order is processing. Thanks again for giving us a chance to make this right! Have a wonderful weekend!

Easy to clean

Smooth stainless steel very easy to clean. Does not fit in some of the smaller coffee/tea cups but that’s OK because I prefer a larger cup. I also purchased the tuffy steeper collapsible style and that fits very well in any size cup.

Fits into all my tea-drinking vessels

I had to buy a second basket because my husband accidentally broke off the little wire handle! No worries. I'm actually happy to have two now so that I can brew both of our cups together, and it fits on my ceramic mugs and my travelling mug. Win, win!

A little too big for my pot. Will use with a large mug.

Loose Tea Basket

I love loose leaf tea over the sachet. It makes me feel I'm getting the best from my tea.
