Summit Tea Best Medium Tea Infuser – Premium Stainless Steel Medium Tea Strainer Basket with Extra Fine Mesh and Lid - Brew in Mug Tea Strainer

I love a good deal on a great product. This is solid, inexpensive, does exactly what it should, and looks swell. It has no plastic to seep into your tea, as some of the strainers have. The handles are plastic coated, which is a handy way to prevent your fingers and thumb from becoming scorched. The lid is great for steeping, but wait for it ----- it's also a perfect coaster to put the tea strainer onto when you're done steeping. Incredible. Summit, you gotta start promoting the FREE coaster aspect of this! I felt like Einstein when I figured that out, but I'm quite a dip, so small mental victories like this are a major deal for my self-confidence. Ditch the ball strainer, which takes a few extra steps in prep, and get kinda wimpy over time, and go with this simply-designed great product.

This is perfect and I love it! It rest on the rim of the cup, and has a lid on top to cover it. Doesn’t leak tea leaves or matter out. I use it everyday since I got it. I like to use loose leaf tea so it nice to use a tea filter like this where I can easily pour tea in instead of making a big mess trying to scoop tea into tea bags (which I still do sometimes depending.) Also it’s made from stainless steel so it feels nice. Well worth it! The pictures I took are after a year of use.

Pros: Exactly what I was looking for! Seems well made and sturdy, large basket, ultra fine holes, lid can be used as a coaster when done steeping, and it fits my 20 oz mug. Plenty of room in basket, 3 tbsp of loose leaf tea fills the basket about 3/4 of the way when expanded with plenty of room to spare for more. Ultra fine holes did not allow any of the finely shredded peppermint leaf that I added to get through.Con: Very minor personal gripe. The lid is sized correctly but fits loosely. I was hoping for some snugness or security, but it does not impact my overall opinion.

This lasted less than a year due to the bottom came apart, like if someone opened up the lid of a can. Also, particles would get trapped in the inside edges. Had to use the edge of my finger nail to get them out each time I washed the infuser. Now I will have to find a new infuser that is well constructed.

This is a great little tea infuser (I call it a strainer). We generally pour the water and cover the cup while steeping the tea. This comes with a cover, so that's a nice little add-on. So far, this has worked great.

The best tea filters I have ever found! Doesn't get rid of very small particles but they aren't big enough to bother me. Defiantly will be buying more in the future!

love this item just wish the arms were longer to fit it over wider mugs. still great for coffee & tea.

Nice infuser. Fine mesh that holds the leaf bits. I will use it for cups.It is just a little bit shorter in total diameter than I expected so it will not work for my main teapot and it's too expensive to return.
