I love my little folding infuser. Works well, and I can use it with multiple different types of cups and mugs.
This little guy will fit just about any mug in your cupboard and most teapots, simply by adjusting its hinged arms up or down as needed.

I love my little folding infuser. Works well, and I can use it with multiple different types of cups and mugs.
I struggled to find a solid infuser for my teas that were fine enough for teas that had smaller leaves and would always seem to linger in the bottom of my cup, luckily this one is just fine enough to avoid a mouthful of tea at the bottom of a cup! It's wonderful that I can have tea in my favorite cups when i just want a single serving and don't feel like making a whole personal pot.
I really like this device. I'm very particular about small bits of leaf in my tea while I'm drinking. I'm glad to report that this infuser does a very good job of keeping leaves out. There is minor leaf residual that sinks to the bottom but not in a bad way.
Works well, fits well in any cup. Does let smaller pieces and sediment through, but definitely easier to clean than the mesh infuser I have.
This is a great all purpose infuser! Easy to clean, tea leaves have plenty of room to unfurl. My only complaint is that the mesh isn't quite fine enough for Rooibos and some small pieces slip into the tea
I now have a few of these folding infusers scattered around that I use. They're sturdy and easy to clean, which I appreciate. I get them as gifts for people to get them into tea. 😉
Perfect for those larger cups that a regular infuser is too small for and way better than a teaball, the ultra fine mesh does not let much get through and I love watching my steep.
Love it. Large size and great for brewing on a variety of cups and mugs. Small enough base that it still fits on the circular wooden adagio steeping coasters.
Easy to use and easy to clean. You can use it in a cup or a teapot. I use it everyday. It is a must have for tea drinkers
I works well for teas that have bigger pieces that don't traditionally fit in a single cup tea diffuser. It does have a very fine mesh in which most particles won't escape.
It works really well. My mom seems very happy with it.
An amazing way to get started drinking tea in a mug or cup. It works very well The only thing I I don't care for it is how fine the holes are and it makes some of the leaves stick when rinsing.
I got for my mom for Christmas, she is enjoying it very much! i also purchased her the rooibus portions sampler I think you may have a new customer
Not much to say about this little gadget - it's very convenient when I only want one cup of tea. But beware, some of the finer tea 'dust' does fall through.
People have been chatting about this infuser on CommuniTea. I have a lot of tea gadgets already, but wanted to see what the hype was all about. This will fit in all my teapots and any mug I might be wanting to drink out of. I like how the infuser is so sturdy, yet the mesh is fine enough for the water to flow through. Glad I purchased this.
This is a great infuser. Not too big and not too small. Works wonderfully in lots of different sized cups.
I *love* this infuser. Fits every mug I've tried it in. Feels sturdy, cleans easily, and folds down to stash away the few times I need to clear off my tea station.
This is a great infuser. It’s very sturdy and the mesh is small enough that leaves won’t go through. It’s also rigid enough that it’s not going to bend. The arms make it wide enough to fit the widest cup I have. I bought it for travel because other strainers get bent, but I use it at home for my wider cups too. I’m thinking of buying a second one.
This infuser works in any cup. No more searching for just the right cup. It's even easier to clean than most. I like the handle for handling it when it's hot.
I love this infuser! It's perfect for so many of my wider-mouthed mugs. The holes are a great size, and it's super easy to clean. I may end up getting myself another just because I like it so much!
Does exactly what you would think it does. Fits every cup in the house and cleans very easily under running water.
Just what I needed fits my oversized mugs as well as my smallest. Fine mesh keeps the leaves where they belong.
The perfect infuser! I love the folding arms, it tucks away nicely. With this infuser, it is easy to get all of the used leaves out as there are tiny holes all over, including the bottom.
This has been a game-changer for me. I have several other brands, but they always seem to begin rusting and staining and typically only fit certain cups. This one fits any size cup, has large enough vents to allow good water contact with the leaves, and cleans quickly. One of my very best purchases!
I love this infuser. It’s a nice fine mesh which keeps most tea leaves from passing through. Fits nearly any mug. Whoever designed this was a genius.
The folding flaps on this gadget really keep it firmly in place and can accommodate different diameters, which is an issue I've had with other infusers. My only gripe is that I wish it was a bit deeper; I drink my tea out of a big-ass 24 oz. mug, and sometimes the water doesn't fully saturate the blend. But that's just me.
Bought along with sample set. Fit for purpose. Some tea grains can fit through and float in the cup as you drink. This is especially true for Rooibos.
My previous infuser was too small for my mug so I used tea cups for my tea. This infuser sat nicely on the rim of my mug so I was able to have a larger cup of tea. It is really easy to clean too. I’m very pleased with this and recommend it.
Does the job well. Nice that it accommodates larger cups. Keeps almost all of the tea leaves out but just a tiny bit of leakage. A little pricey, but I would buy it again.
infuser fits well in my mugs and small teapot and small mesh keeps tealeaves from getting into my finished product.
This was a fantastic addition to our tea cubby; after making our first cup of tea with it, we decided it was the best possible choice for our variety of tea pots.
My last infuser broke on me and I decided to buy this. Absolutely worth it and only thing I'd do differently is buy a second one so my mother doesn't keep stealing mine
I've had this for almost a year and has not tarnished or broken.
whats not to love? plenty of room for the leaves to expand, super easy to clean up.
Love this infuser as I can use any coffee or tea mug or cup with this. I also love that it folds for storage
This works really well! So happy to have an easy way to steep and strain my tea!
I loved it! It was a great infuser and goes just fine in the dishwasher
I used this in a teapot with a wide opening. Worked great - very convenient side handles. Much longer lasting than a bamboo strainer, too. Thanks for this product.
Works great, easy to clean, the handle makes function a lot easier.
Works perfectly. Fits well in any of my mugs. Would buy again.
The mesh is super fine so very little residue makes it through. The basket is huge, so it actually hits the bottom of a few of my mugs.
Purchased 2 infusers for my mother and myself. They get used almost daily. Well made with no sharp edges and filters the leaves well.
I like this infuser- and use it daily. However, it sometimes lets small particles thru- I think I need a finer meshed diffuser for some of the finer teas that I drink. I like this one though, because it fits on an cup and I can store it easily.
Perfect for a one cup brew. I like that the handles folds up.
This is the best thing ever. Easy to use and easy to clean. I love mine.
Just right for that one cup of tea. Works for cup of coffee to.
very good for what it does! the bottom isn't as porous as the rest of the device but it's easy to get the last few drops out just by tipping it on its side; granted you didn't fill the thing up to the brim. it's a bit annoying to clean out but i suspect most infusers are like that. this is both big & slim, fitting in all the mugs i owned. i was afraid it'd end up being too big for some but unless you have an extremely slender mug, that's not happening.
This is the best tea infuser I have ever had. The cup is able to fit on many sizes of mug or teacup .And its a breeze to clean!
I love the folding arms of this infuser, just wish the holes were a bit finer for the more finely ground Teas. For the chunkier Teas it works wonderfully. It's incredibly easy to wash or rinse out. How many tea infusers is too many in my cabinet? 🤔 I don't know the answer to that yet lol.
Needed something to replace my old ball infusers and to stop using so many tea pouches/bags. Love love love that it's basically adjustable to fit any cup. Easy clean up. It does allow for some fine particles to get through but then you can read your tea leaves! 😁. Will be ordering another one to keep in rotation.
I used this all the time. Makes a perfect cup of tea every time and easy to clean .
