Love the ingenuiTea! It's something that gets used 4 or 5 times a day. The filters hold up for a long time. I've had it for around a year before having to buy a replacement due to small tear. I have ordered two more to take to work for my husband and I. Best and simplest way to make tea.

I love this! I bought this so I could make tea while camping and it worked wonderfully!
★★★★★
I love brewing tea with this. It is so easy to clean, too. All my tea drinking friends want one themselves after seeing me with mine.
★★★★☆
The ingenuiTEA is very convenient and easy to clean. It doesn't allow pieces of leaves to escape into my mug, which I appreciate.
★★★★☆
The ingenuiTEA is fun to use, and it's especially nice to be able to see the tea as it steeps. I, however, often find myself forgoing it out of laziness and instead using a tea strainer. For me, it's more for presentation for guests than for everyday use, but were I not a stressed college student, I might use it more.
★★★★★
I literally use this everyday and it works brilliantly! In a pinch it can be used to make coffee, though some sediments do get through the filter. It's durable and is perfect for making tea for 1-2 people.
★★★★★
I love this thing. It's so easy to use and clean, and I adore that it's dishwasher safe. My one complaint is that the little 'feet' tabs on the bottom can snap off, so be careful not to drop yours like I did with my first...
★★★★★
This was absolutely wonderful! I got it for my dad for christmas, and it was just what he needed for his morning tea. He tells me all the time that he loves using it. It's easy to clean and makes tea very easily.
★★★★★
This tiny teapot is amazing. It's perfect for keeping on my office desk and keeps every last bit of tea out of my mug.
★★★★★
I recently started drinking loose-leaf tea and this device has made an easy experience. It is also a bit hypnotic to view the tea leaves float around and watch the water change a completely different color.
★★★★★
It does the job. I have two mugs and a 16 oz glass tumbler, and the ingenuiTEA's size is perfect for each one. So easy to clean, it's made my consumption of tea skyrocket.
★★★★☆
Has been greatly helpful for making tea at home. Some tea get stuck in the filter and I cannot get the filter out to clean.
★★★★★
This thing is wonderful! Perfect brew every time and easy to clean, even without a washing machine.
★★★★★
What a wonderful tea steeper! It's easy to clean, and I can bring it to the bedroom or living room while my tea steeps rather than waiting for it to steep in the kitchen like I have to with my other steeper. The only problem I have had with it is that a couple of my mugs have mouths that are too wide to fit under it.
★★★★★
I love this device. Before purchasing this I only used tea bags. Loose tea intimidated me. Now though I basically only drink loose tea.
★★★★★
Bought this as a gift, along with some tea samplers. It was a big hit. Getting one for myself ASAP.
★★★★★
This may be one of the best ways to brew tea. I absolutely love ingenuiTEA, and cannot stop using it! It is so easy to use, well made, and very easy to clean. If you are an avid tea drinker than this item is a must have!
★★★★★
An amazing product! I have given several as gifts!
★★★★★
By far my favorite tea-brewing device of all time. I've tried and used various teaballs and like items, but this is the easiest to use, and gives me the most flavor out of all of my teas. I would definitely recommend this to anyone and everyone. With that said, it does seem to need replaced every year and a half or so. With such a low price, that's really not an issue thankfully!
★★★★★
The easiest tea maker out there, does not leak at all.
★★★★★
This is one of the coolest things I've ever used. The tea comes out perfectly clean. I can't recommend it enough.
★★★★★
OK, this is one of the best things I have bought myself in a while. Just add tea, pour in the water and close the lid. Everything brews right before your eyes. I haven't figured out the secret to cleaning out the tea after I make my cup but trail and error works for now.
★★★★★
These things are amazing, simple and easy and you can just leave your leaves in and add more water for another couple cups! I love it
★★★★★
This is a lovely way to make a cup of tea. I like watching the leaves unfurl and the design really is ingenious. I'm relatively new to loose leaf lea but this makes it accessible!
★★★★★
I love my ingenuitea! It provides a lot of room for the tea leaves to unfurl and allows you to watch how beautiful the steeping process is! I've been too nervous to purchase a glass teapot, so I was pleased to see this is a plastic option for those who are curious to see their blends steep.
It's a breeze to clean, so this gets used 3-4 times a day!
It brews enough for 1 mug. If you use smaller tea cups, it's enough for two. As promised, it doesn't drip! The only tiny issue I have is that it's hard to tell how far you've filled your cup while you're using it. But, after a uses, you'll know exactly when to stop pouring.

I don't know how I went on without this thing. I received this for christmas, and it's the best and most useful gift by far. It does fit most mugs, even my skinny little starbucks mug that i got for christmas. I was worried that the ingenuiTEA would be too big and that it wouldn't pour directly into the cup, but it does! I loved my little infuser ball, but this one tops it big time.
★★★★★
It works really well, and the tea that is filtered is wonderfully clear. Be careful about dropping it though, the legs around the bottom can break off.
★★★★★
This is literally the easiest thing I have ever used in my life. Easy to clean, and it's so fun to watch the tea bounce around inside the cup! Definitely going to recommend this to anyone who asks.
★★★★★
Works very well - no more bits of tea leaf in my tea!
★★★★★
I got this thing yesterday and I am already in love! It's fun to watch the tea unfurl, and easy to use.
★★★★★
There's not a single thing about this brewer that's not to like. It's well constructed, extremely easy to use, and easy to clean. It's the most ingenious tea brewing devices I've ever encountered. It's also fun to use, and keeps me coming back for more tea often. I can't wait to order some for friends as gifts!
★★★★★
This is a great way to brew your tea! Since purchasing mine, I have purchased two more as gifts for family members who also felt this was a great way to make tea. It is neat to see the tea leaves expand with the clear sides.
★★★★★
Well what can I say other than this tea pot has revolutionized my tea drinking! Its soooo fantastic and my go to gift for tea lovers who haven't tried it! My only complaint, the ice tea pot is my favorite and its out of stock a lot!
★★★★★
So easy to use and clean. I now own two, and would recommend them to anyone who is even remotely interested in loose leaf tea.
★★★★★
Just got my ingenuiTEA today, and so far am delighted with it. It is the perfect size for two smallish cups of tea, or one large mug. The leaves steeped beautifully, having lots of room to move around in the hot water. I love how easily it dispenses out the bottom, and that it seems to seal perfectly, so no drips on the counter when it was done. The other great thing about it dispensing out the bottom is you can fill it VERY full, so the capacity is accurate. Loving my ingenuiTEA!
★★★★★
Best product ever for brewing loose leaf tea. Plenty of room for expansion of the tea leaves which makes for a tastier tea. I use this daily and can't recommend it highly enough.
★★★★★
Oh my - what an incredible invention. It makes such fantastic tea which is its primary function of course, but it is also so nice to look at! Nice clean tea dispensed so simply. It makes looseleaf tea so accessible. Thank you to whomever invented this magnificent product. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants a good cup of tea and who wants to have fun making it!
★★★★★
Much easier to clean than a steeper and fun to watch! The tea leaves have enough room to fully bloom and I love how the no spill spout at the bottom keeps the leaves out of my cuppa!
★★★★★
Gave this as a gift to my bf. He seems to really enjoy it, especially since it is easy to clean!
★★★★☆
I love this device! I especially like watching full leaf teas unfurl inside it. Then, when it's done brewing, you just set it on top of your mug and it drains out. Doubly entertaining if you have a glass mug!
Two bad points that I would say. It's plastic, so unless you clean it with soap and water every time you use it, it will stain and get brown. If you just care about the functionality, then that doesn't matter.
The other con is that its not tremendously easy to get the tea leaves out of it. You have to take a spoon and scrape them out and tip it into the trash and then, if you have a tea with smaller pieces, you can't get them all out with a spoon. Rinsing them down the sink is the only option.
★★★★★
I love the ingenuiTEA!! It's super easy to use and even easier to clean. I would recommend this to anyone who drinks loose leaf tea on a regular basis!
★★★★★
This is one of the most helpful things you could buy if you like tea but only need to make one cup. It makes making loose leaf tea hassle free and easy. Just a great buy worth it's price
★★★★★
awesome for larger leaf teas, rooibos can still get through but its not a lot.
★★★☆☆
I love the concept. We have loved our ingenujiTEA in the past but this one leaks and doesn't have a coaster like our last one had. Any chance of a replacement?
★★★★★
Genius invention. Makes a great gift of health to family and friends.
★★★★★
Really like this tea strainer. This one was a replacement for the one that we bought recently, since they are not cement-drop proof.
★★★★★
It's so neat! I love that it's clear so I can see the tea leaves unfurling. It's also great to not have any trace of tea leaves in my mug. My new favorite!
★★★★★
This is the best steeper if have come across. I love the valve-on-the-bottom design. Just sit it on your cup, let id drain, and drink up. You have to be careful when buying cups, to make sure the steeper will fit on the top. However, if your cup is too large, you can use your fingers. I have had mine to two years or so and haven't even had to get new filters yet. The fact that it's clear is nice because you can see the liquor, which enhances the tea experience. I have a Japanese iron kettle that I like to steep Asian teas in for fun, but I use this most of the time because of its ease of use and effectiveness. Highly recommended.
★★★★★
OK I must say this is the best gadget I bought all year. Having the tea able to steep in the hot water vs. hanging in it makes the tea richer more full bodied. Being able to sit this on my tea cup and have it filter through the leaves cleanly awesome. People that have seen or been served from mine are ordering their own. The clear cup makes it easy to judge your tea strength by it's color instead of having to time it. I love this and highly recommend it, works like a charm. The filter is replaceable, but after 3 months of daily use I do not see me having to do that anytime soon or ever as long as I do not damage it.
★★★★★
My new favorite way to make a cup of tea. Beautiful and so easy to clean up after.
