Loose Tea Infuser (folding) Customer Reviews

Honestly the best little infuser, I recommend this to everyone. Portable and easy to wash.

This is so much easier than the tea infuser balls I have...just lift out and rinse! Mesh is fine enough to keep even the smallest particles out of my tea!

A easy portible product. I am adding to a gift basket.

Very nice and versatile infuser. It's really easy to clean!!!

I use this both for tea and to infuse my water with oats (good tip for new moms - oat water helps with breast milk production)

Love this infuser! It fits all those large mouthed mugs that I have for a big cup of tea in the morning.

I used to have an infuser like this, but it did not have folding arms. It was so difficult to store! These folding arms are genius - just what I needed. I'm grateful for this design!

This thing is amazing! Easy to use, and even easier to clean! Perfect for my tea making needs!

Ordered this to be able to infuse ice cream bases with tea flavors. It works much better then the standard tea ball I had and paper filters I had before.

I adore this strainer! It is perfect! I have used it in every size cup with perfection!

Purchased this for a friend and had it sent to him. He's just learning to enjoy tea. I've been coaching him over the phone as he is a long-distance trucker and is a devout coffee drinker. Since ordering him the Fujian Rain tea and this infuser, he's learning to enjoy a nice cuppa tea after a long day on the road. I sent him a tin of shortbread biscuits and French lemon Madelines I made and he's set. Funny, never thought of a trucker enjoying tea and biscuits.

Buy this! It will work for most regular/large cups the small foldable steel loop on the front will rest the infuser perfectly straight on the cup rim. High quality, the steel holes are not rough/will not snag the dish sponge while cleaning

Works great for what I need and good price. Perfect size!

This infuser is great for mugs of all sizes. I have had zero issues after using it dozens of time. Build quality is pleasing and the design is simple. It does let small parts of leaves slip into your tea. Load up the leaves, shake it over a trash can or sink, and then place it to steep. Should fix the issue.

Simple, and gets the job done. I wish it was slightly taller, some of my tall narrow mugs don't fit it super well

Love the folding cup, perfect for traveling and so much easier of cleanup than the pot

Very easy to use for a beginner! Fits in our mugs easily.

Works great in all of my mugs. Tea cups Its a bit bulky for

Good quality but I wish it was a little deeper to allow more room for tea to expand. I don't fill my water to the brim as I like to add milk after steeping.

Love this infuser. Gives my tea leaves plenty of room to lounge around in the hot water.

Excellent little infuser, fits even my widest mugs. I particularly like this one because unlike the infusers that come with the ceramic cups, this infuser is perforated on the bottom too, so the water can drain away when you removed the infuser from the cup. The perforations are very small; I've even used it on my very finely ground Thai tea, with no sediment left in the cup.

In addition to being an excellent for steeping tea on the go, my only complaint with the VelociTEA tea maker was the unavailability of additional infuser baskets. This little folding infuser is the perfect solution. It fits perfectly inside the Tea Maker's basket so I can just swap out the folding infuser to save multiple types of tea leaves for reuse. Love it!

This thing is way bigger than I thought! The handles are super convenient and it filters well. Definitely recommend!

Oh my goodness!! This is greatness. I could not be more pleased and great design.

Great quality but it is huge. Probably designed for a teapot & not for a cup of tea

Love it. Fits in every possible cup and container I could use to brew tea

As a mug collector, I find this is the perfect size for just about everything I have in my cabinet. Super easy to clean and I don't lose rooibos through the mesh like I do with so many others.

Works perfectly in everything from a tea cup to a wide mug. It's fine mesh is a nice feature as well.

This little buddy is fantastic! It fits my travel cup just as I hoped! It's pretty quick to clean as well and I feel like this is worth every penny!

Best. Infuser. EVER! This tea infuser will hold MOST of your tea leaves in the infuser. I like how it sits on the cup too.

Fine grain basket that lets very little tea leaves through. I also like how the arms fold out.

This works great. Helpful for those teas with things like cinnamon and small particles that dont do so well in my IngenuiTEA. Also travels well

I needed a 2nd infuser to keep around the house, I love that the sides can fold down. My one small complaint is that it is a little large. It works well enough in my smaller cups, but is ideal for cups with a wide mouth.

Wonderful infuser! I have a lot of big mugs and this is the perfect adjustable infuser. Worth every penny!

This is absolutely and easily my favorite infuser; I'd been bothering with the little balls and the dinky five-dollar Amazon ones, and I don't know why, because this one is barely more than that and it's amazing. The best part of it is that it's enormous; I like large cups of strong tea, so I usually use inordinate amounts, and this can probably comfortably fit about three or four teaspoons.

I bought one of these in Dec 2019. Then someone took it for themselves from my office kitchen! I bought another and again it disappeared! Finally I have created a leash for my third one. Its obviously loved by many people. ha!

Haven't had any issues after many uses so far. Fits all sizes of cups!

Oh, I love this little gadget so much. It fits all the mugs and pots we own and holds enough tea to give us a delicious pot with plenty of room for the leaves to bloom. Might have to buy another because someone is constantly using mine!

Using this infuser for my bigger mug that the regular doesn't fit. The metal ring on top has enough of a lip to it that tea leaves can get stuck when rinsing. Good for what I need it for. Not sure if the cap helps steeping at all, but this one doesn't have it.

Really useful and fits all cups. I currently keep this in my office after reading about microplastic in many tea bags, it's easy to clean and only lets very small tea filament out.

We've used this multiple times a day since we got it. The only reason it's not five stars is because like another reviewer said it does let out tiny bits. It wouldn't bother us so much except for when traveling with a cup of tea and getting to the very last bit. Then it's an unpleasant mouth of tea grind. Other than that we love this infuser we can make a pot of tea at one time which is great for busy mornings. Edit: We started brewing this with a tea kettle, teapot, then through the infuser into the cup, it works much better. If that explanation seemed a bit off YouTube English Heritage How to Brew a Proper Cup of Tea.

Very easy to use, made well and easy to clean. I would buy it again

It's functional, but be careful, the rooibos leaks into your mug.

I was using one of those flimsy mesh balls and tea leaves were constantly spilling everywhere and getting into my tea. All those problems were solved with this great infuser. It sits nicely on top of the cup with no chance of it falling in. No leaves fall through and cleanup is easy. And both sides fold down for easy storage. I use this at work where I don't have room to store the big IngenuiTEA infuser. Definitely recommend!

It's a little bulky, but does the job well enough.

Perfect for my random mugs! And it's nice and smooth inside, so the tea leaves rinse out nicely after use.

I have been working my way through different products for preparing my tea. Love this one. Easy to use...easy to clean!

Love this infuser. I bought it to replace a teavana one after the arms broke off. Having them fold under was a terrific idea

This infuser cleans easily and keeps the small particles out of the tea!

I lost my favorite infuser and didn t have one that would sit in different size cups. This is exactly what I needed :)
