Paper Tea Filters Customer Reviews

These filters are great! they're very easy to use and very convenient.

I love these paper filters! They're a much better way to make a quick cup of tea than any other way I've tried, especially since I'm generally just making one for me. And they don't need washing, either, which is great at work.

So excited to finally get my hands on some of these. I typically like using my Ingenuitea pot, but at work I need something quicker and with less clean up. I love that these give some room and space for the tea to steep and that they work in virtually any size cup.

The filters work well when I need to steep some tea on the go, but the bottom doesn't open in my cup like the image on the box claims it should. Perhaps its just me, but I like the convenience of it.

They work excellently! Whatever the problem people mentioned from years back must have been a bad batch. Cheaper to order them here than teavana. They get the job done and seem big enough to fit in most tea kettles.

I *love* putting tea in these, tie in a not, and put in a water bottle.

After seeing other reviews - I was a little hesitant about purchasing these - but they are great! No taste, just a great brewing alternative! :)

Pretty Good! I am defintely glad to have them until I get myself some good teaware to prepare my loose lead teas properly.

Was nervous about getting these due to the negative reviews but then I realized those all were from an older date. These are fantastic, it makes using loose leaf tea so much more easy!

These are so much bigger than I was expecting! I had bought some quite a while ago from Teavana, and they were much smaller - a pain, considering the opening was barely larger than the teaspoon I was using to put the tea in with. The leaves went everywhere unless I funneled them in. These, however, are much bigger. A lot more space than I need, but that's a fair tradeoff for being able to use them without making a wasteful mess. Haven't experienced any aftertaste whatsoever. Super convenient product for taking tea on the go.

I am guessing that I missed the bad batch of these, because I didn't have any weird taste to my tea. They come in very handy as my infuser broke and I use these to take my loose tea to work. VERY HANDY.

These are great because some tea is fine enough to get through the mesh of infusers

These work great and left no funny taste in the cup. They're bigger than regular tea bag, but not too big, even for a single mug. And I love that I can use them in the teapot, too! Very convenient!

I have ordered these many times, thankfully I never received a bad batch. They are fabulous for sharing with friends that don't drink loose tea (yet... haha!) and for when I am running errands and don't want to bring a 'nice' travel mug.

These are perfect for the price, especially for brewing the finer teas like rooibos or mate.

These are so great in a pinch. (I used to pick up these very one's from a local mom and pop shop here that specialized in tea and olive oil that has since shut down). Both Fiance and I use these at work. The don't impart any flavor and just work!

Awesome filters. Fill them up, steep your tea and toss in the trash. Really good for that quick cup of tea.

These come in so handy for messing about with blends! I haven't noticed any unpleasant taste from these tea bags and find that the tea leaves in the bag always smell pleasant after brewing. Especially as these are so economical, I will definitely purchase another box when I'm done with my current one.

ETA: These are especially brilliant if you like mates or mate blends - and if you haven't tried mates, you should, because I was scared of them for the longest time and let them languish in the corner of the tea box, but now that I've tried them I can't keep my hands off them! Anyway, reason: I have no filter in my tea ware collection with a mesh fine enough to keep mate-bits from escaping. So if you like a really detritus-free tea brewing experience and plan to give mates a whirl, paper filters can be preferable to reusable filters!

And here's a use for paper filters that I've just worked out: line a tea strainer (the kind you nestle in the tea cup for use with a teapot) with a water-dampened paper filter and when the tea is done steeping, pour through as usual. I love using miniature teapots for blends that have both large and very small tea leaves (like green/white versus mate/honeybush blends) so that the bigger leaves have lots of space to unfurl, but my tea strainer alone can't keep the little bits out of the cup. Add a dampened tea bag to the filter and it may not look as elegant, haha, but it works!

I absolutely love these! They're wonderful for brewing up a quick cuppa and I haven't had any of the issues previously reported.

These filters are great. You can put a teaspoon of tea in one, or 3 teaspoons for a pot!

So much more simple than using a tea ball and better since there's no escaped tea leaves like can often occur with a tea ball. They don't mess with the flavor of the tea and they're a great deal for the price!

simple and they do what they need to do, nothing else is needed.

These are great! My only complaint is that I'm so used to my tea ball that the portioning is going to take some getting used to. However, they're incredibly convenient and at $3 for 100, I'll definitely be ordering these again!

These were cheap and perfect! So easy to make tea with, I love them.

I was anxious about ordering these when I read the previous bad reviews, but I don't really have the time in the mornings to sit and steep a cup of tea so I went for it and got a box. At $3, what did I have to lose? What a great investment! They're really simple and whatever the issue was with the taste before, it's done because I haven't noticed any taste in these at all. They're wonderful and SO convenient! Now I can just toss one in my cup and go!

These did the job very well, but I don't think I will bother buying them again. I don't think they let the leaves expand well enough to get the full flavor from them. I only got these so I wouldn't have to spring for an infuser- on the off-chance I didn't like loose-leafed tea.UPDATE: I've been noticing weird white particles floating in my tea cup every time I use these filters. No leaves get loose, but I get a white particle film floating on the top of my tea. It doesn't do anything to the taste, I just think it is rather ugly.I tried without the filters, and no white film, but then I have to drink around leaves.

These are so nifty and useful! I was thinking I'd rig it up with coffee filters until a friend told me about these, much better and more useful.

We had a tea party bridal shower with mix your own tea bags. These were great and a good price for how many you get. The bags are a little big but that didn't cause any problems.

Tea filters are the reason I can have high-quality tea on a daily basis. Adagio's filters are nice and big, so it's easy to get the tea leaves in without spilling, and the price is very reasonable.

As noted on the page, I don't notice any taste issues with these filters. I must have missed the bad batch, because I have used these off and on for years with no issues. They're good for a 'no muss, no fuss' approach, allowing me to brew a cup without dealing with the mess of cleaning wet leaves out of an infuser.

These paper filters are just okay. I don't think it's much of the fault of the filter itself. When the leaves are constricted in the small space, you do not get as much flavor as using other methods where they can expand more. While the cleanup is very easy, this is just not my preferred way of brewing tea.

No loose tea bits so far, the filters hold quite a bit of tea, and they have no odor/taste as far as I've noticed. Win all around.

I usually use my japanese teapot to brew tea, but I thought that it would be nice to get some paper liners when I want to take my tea on the go. I use these paper liners a lot now and they work really well. They don't give the tea any strange tastes that I have encountered with some other loose leaf bags and they hold all the tea in while still giving it room to expand and open up.

Very nice if you want to take tea to go. Also nice to use if you're brewing a tea like rooibos with little bits that escape a normal mesh filter. Didn't get a strange smell with the batch I got, so it would seem like they fixed it.

These are no replacement for a proper metal infuser, but still good perhaps if one wants something easier or cares a lot about fine particles in their tea. For sure they won't let anything through, and as such they're essential for brewing rooibos.

I love these! I do not own a teapot and do not like to use tea balls, so I had found myself in a situation where I had a large amount of loose tea and no way to prepare it! The description says that you can fold the long end of the teabag over the edge of your mug however this did not work for me. I instead fold the long end to touch the bottom of the teabag, then fold it once more and staple it shut, and then it works perfectly!

These are perfect for work! I just make up a couple of them, pack some sugar crystals and I am all set for a 8 hour shift! Also, like the description says, that strange random smell is NO LONGER AN ISSUE.

Ideal for those teas who require more leaves than a regular infuser will hold. Easy to use.

These filters, as the update said, didn't leave any strange aftertastes in with the tea and left plenty of room for the tea leaves to expand properly. They're tall to suit just about most mugs, tumblers and kettles and folded at the end for a little more room to allow the tea to steep properly.

I love using these on camping trips, because they get the job done and are easily disposable! They don't affect the flavor or the tea in any way.

These were messy and hard to use! I ended up with a bunch of tea leaves in my cup and a sopping wet paper filter to deal with. They were definitely not user friendly and they made my tea taste funny. I wouldn't reccommend these, unless you have aboslutely no time and need to make tea to go. Totally bummed, I had much higher hopes for them.

They were a lot bigger than we expected better suited for pots of tea rather than cups. Good quality though.

Loved these. Easy to use, great quality, and reasonably priced. What more could I ask for?

I was very wary to try these because of the negative reviews before, but once I saw the update saying they'd fixed them, I figured it was time (especially because I struggle with loose since I don't have an infuser).

These are exactly what I've needed - no strange tastes or smells from the filters or added to my tea, so it looks like the previous issues were indeed fixed. The size is a little much for my smaller mugs, but they're perfect for making tea in my large travel cup as I can put all my tea into one filter, rather than have to use two or three (which would have obviously eaten through my filters much faster). So these are absolutely great!

I used to use reusable metal tins to steep my loose leaf teas, but they were hard to maintain. Paper filters made it so much easier, and I haven't noticed any flavor differences.

Useful for any loose tea you buy--here or otherwise. They work well, you can tie them if you want to just throw them in the mug. I personally do that with Cara's 007 blend. it doesn't get bitter.

These make using loose leaf tea incredibly easy. I didn't notice any taste added by the filters.

So i originally ordered these to go with my new tea pot but they are amazing for when i'm to lazy to clean my inginuitea or making different teas for a couple people. they are huge and amazing and so easy to use. edit: i use these pretty much exclusively now sooooo great and easy for my lazy self. they are also great to throw in my bag to bring tea around campus.

I had to buy these after my tea infuser broke (Because I am clumsy) and if I wanted tea I needed fancy filters. Luckily these work perfectly for what I needed...and what I needed was a pot of tea not full of leaves.
