I love it! Love it, love it!!! The product is SO cute and works perfectly well. I bought two of them, kept one for myself and gave one to my best friend who loves tea. I am from Russia and matreshka (nested doll) design nostalgically warms my heart every time I use it and see its' little head bobbing in my tea cup. It is very easy to use and to empty tea leaves. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a tea infuser.
These little dolls work and are adorable! What's not to like? I dare you to sit there, place one of these doll infusers in your tea, watch her little head bob on the surface, and not smile. And she's tidy! A decent lady would never come without her own little holder for the used tea leaves. Ladies and gentlemen, she's a keeper.
This has to be the cutest thing I ever purchased! I got the blue/red one, which I wasnt too thrilled upon having, but it is still very cute, and very functional. it holds a lot of tea, great if you like a nice strong cup ! the one thing I have to complain about is the Paint job on the face, which was very poor to the point of me having to repaint it.
I still absolutely love this Tea infuser and wouldn't trade it for the world!
Very cute and attractive tea strainer. The concept is wonderful. Because you do not see the tea after you pull it out. It looks just like a nesting doll decoration on your table. However, the bottom basket does tend to fall out occasionally leaving loose tea floating in your cup. This design flaw should be fixed. If it wasn't for this significant problem I would've given this five stars.
Adorable! Other reviewers commented on this being "too loose" and not clicking into place. I don't have a problem with that - it's easy to twist and you can hear it click into place. The color assortment is great, so I was flexible with whatever color I was going to receive. This is a cute addition to any kitchen! I love bright and cheery things. This little doll will be a nice way to enjoy my favorite loose teas :)
I loved the idea of this; however after only a few uses, the strainer kept separating itself from the upper portion while in a cup of tea, spreading tea leaves all over the cup and making it to where you could not drink it unless you used a strainer and poured it into a second cup - which would make this tea infuser completely unnecessary in the first place. Bottom line; super cute but not worth the money unless you collect Russian Nesting Dolls, but don't buy them for their functionality.
What a bummer. I ordered this to be a gift for my boyfriend's mother's birthday and she was ECSTATIC when she opened it. I got major girlfriend points. Then it was totally unusable. The mesh strainer does not at all stay attached to the head of the doll, so when you dunk it in your hot water, the basket opens up and tea goes everywhere. It's just unusable. I tried to return it but I guess I'm too far past my order date. Reading the other reviews here, it sounds like some of these work great and others are like the one I ordered - just luck of the draw. My boyfriend's mom loved it so much I may order again and just hope I get one of the functional ones. But for $12... spent twice... the next one had BETTER work.
This infuser was one I bought along with several others. This one works the best. You can fit a good amount of tea and no matter how high of low your water level it is right in there. No need to worry about "chain" falling into water or not hooking to edge of pot.
