Customer Reviews

Overall, reviewers find this a well-made, versatile stainless-steel infuser that fits most mugs and teapots, holds enough leaves for a cup or small pot, and comes with a handy bamboo lid to trap heat — many call it their daily go-to. A few users note very fine teas (e.g., rooibos) can pass through the mesh and some find the tiny holes/inner seam tricky to clean, with one report of poor customer service.

Highly praised stainless steel tea infuser that "fits almost any mug" and works effectively with loose leaf teas. Customers love the bamboo lid for steeping and the versatile size. Most find it easy to clean, though some note tea leaves can stick in seams. Fine tea particles may pass through for very small leaves like Rooibos.

Pretty and love the cover, but…

Quite a bit of the Rooibos blend tea seems to sneak through the very tiny slots in this, as photos show.
My other loose tea is fine.

This tea infuser is simple and effective

This tea infuser is simple and effective. I've been using it with my larger leaf jasmine tea. It steeped it in my mug perfectly. I can't wait to try it with some of our smaller tea leaves.

Excellent purchase. Possibly the best infuser available. Easy to clean and use. I'm glad I bought it.

I LOVE this steeper!! It has plenty of room for tea to dance around in and it's not so big I can't use it in my smaller cups. Outstanding product at an excellent price!

Solid product

The infuser works great. It's a good size and I love the bamboo lid. The only drawback is that it's difficult to clean. The small holes make it hard to rinse the wet tea leaves out and they get stuck under the metal seam on the inside rim of the infuser.

A perfect steeper. Easy to clean.

STEEPSTER

This is the perfect strainer for finer chopped teas & I've got 2 of them (use one for tea & one for coffees) & it's the only strainer I use now.

The infuser fits almost all my mugs with nice bamboo cover cap to boot; overall great sturdy filter/infuser for my loose tea.

Wonderful infuser

I love this infuser it fits in my cup & my teapot. The lid helps hold the steam in while the tea is steeping. The tea leaves clean out easily when I'm finished brewing.

The Steepster

Fits my 20 year teapot perfectly. I really like being able to make 2+ cups at one time and use it everyday. The Steepster holds enough tea for a large pot or a single cup.

Works wonderfully

These are excellent quality. The super fine mesh means almost no particulate through. They fit into almost any mug, though they are a bit tall for my one cup tea cups. I bought one and instantly bought another to give away!

This one is a winner!!

This little strainer is a life saver. I own a few (ok...many) tea pots and most of them are without strainers. That was never a problem until I stumbled across Whistling Kettle. Now all my tea is loose tea! This strainer fits in my tea kettles, my cups, and my to-go mugs. It seems to fit in everything I use to take along a good cup of tea. Now my Whistling Kettle tea has a nice place to stay as I steep and drink my wonderful loose tea.

Best Tea Strainer

This is my favorite tea strainer of all time. I use it every day. I finally bought two in case one was dirty but then my husband switched from coffee to tea and started using the second one. So, we just bought a third one. So much better than the metal ones that float or hang my chains. It's easy to use and leads to a better brew.

Perfect size.

I have had some other baskets before, but they did not fit every mug. This steeper is a perfect shape and size for all the mugs in my house. The bamboo top works well for good brewing and a place to put the basket afterward, keeping my counter clean. I am very happy with it.

I love my new tea infuser. It is much bigger than my old one and works great and easier to clean.
I also love having the cover to keep my tea warm! I am not reheating my tea anymore.

Love this company!

I love The Whistling Kettle! The teas I have ordered from them are delicious and superior to other specialty shop teas I have tried. Their tea infusers are well-made and handy and don't allow tea to pass through into your tea! Well worth the money.

I like the tea infuser. Fine tea pieces do get thru and settle in the bottom of the cup. The tea samples I have tried are delicious! I will continue to order.

Perfect!

Works great with my cup. I love the fact that it come with a lid which helps in the steeping process. Easy to clean. My coworkers saw it and plans to order one for a friend.

Great!

I love this steeper, it fits perfectly in my mug and gives the tea plenty of room to steep. The lid is very handy to set upon once it’s done too.

Great diffuser

I bought this diffuser last year and have really liked it. It is easier to fill than the ball diffusers, and allows the tea to loosely circulate in the water. I had a similar infuser from Bodum, but I found that the nylon mesh would sometimes take on the flavor of the tea. I didn’t like the leftover chai taste with my English breakfast. I don’t have that problem with the stainless steel.

Diffuser

I really love the tea diffuser that I purchased along with the spring-loaded ball diffuser.
I have used both and have had great results with both, but I am finding that I like the laser-cut diffuser the best of the two.

What is the size of this infuser — width at base and at the top? Height? This would be helpful information for you to include in the description. Thanks!
