I Really Like This Infuser
Overall, I really like this infuser. I find that it holds up to 3 tsp or 1 Tbsp of loose leaf tea. The two halves fit together very snugly yet it is still so easy to open (which is always much appreciated). I like how the long stem makes it easy to grab and pull out of my teapot and I love the fact that its silicone (so it is easy to clean). As a bonus, it comes with a little matching silicone dish. I love the little dish because it keeps my tea tray cleaner. The one downside is that it did leave some tiny bits of tea leaves behind but I would expect this with nearly any infuser. Overall, I can still say that I really enjoy using it. Maybe I’m just a sucker for aesthetically appealing kitchen gadgets but this one is definitely a keeper for me.

Good idea that doesn't work out
Some reviews say the holes are too big. Mine are too small to allow water into the loose tea. It floated. Even after I dangled it a while and immersed it and got bubbles, the thing still floated. And then when I removed it from the cup, it's slow in releasing the bit of water it did take in, so it's just a mess. The price is right, but the product is lacking. It's cute standing in my glass front cabinet with my special tea cups. Maybe someone will comment on it, and I'll say, "You can have it!"

Absolutely love this adorable little thing!
Seriously the most adorable (and functional) thing I've ever purchased! I'm absolutely happy with this purchase. It's freaking adorable, washed well in the utensil holder of the dishwasher, and is perfectly functional. It loses a few tiny leaves, but that doesn't bother me at all. They're either so small I don't notice them, or they fall to the bottom of the tea anyway. For this price, friends might be getting these for Christmas.Update: I totally ordered four more. 1 for work, and 3 to give as gifts. Love it, and seriously cannot beat the price.

Cute infuser but doesn't work with small tea leaves
This tea infuser is so cute. I wish it worked as well as it looked though. Unfortunately the holes are a little too big. I used the largest tea leaves I have and a few leaves still escaped into my cup. I still enjoyed my cup of tea, but I had to be careful not to eat some of the floating leaves. The tea infuser also tends to float up and lie mostly on its side. I really like that the top part is made out of silicone though, which is durable and heat-resistant. I also love the little sitting dish that you can place your infuser on after the tea is done steeping. The infuser is also a good size and can easily fit the 2 to 3 teaspoons of tea that I use. Overall I still like it, but I'll only be using it for larger tea leaves.

Good infuser but flawed
As someone that has given up soda for health reasons, I decided that I was in need of a tea infuser. This was one of the less expensive ones and the reviews seemed rather positive, so I gave it a try. First of all, the design is adorable. I'm known for losing my smaller kitchen gadgets and with such bright colors, it would be difficult to lose this one! As far as the functionality, it does as described but is not without flaw. Previous reviews stated that there is some leaf leakage, so I was expecting it. Unfortunately, each cup has more leaves than the last. I noticed that some of the loose leaves fall into the cup just as I'm hovering the infuser over the cup. I've tested it with different teas, some thicker than others, and the result has been the same.As a starter infuser, it's not bad. If you don't mind loose tea leaves, then give it a try.

Nice product for the cost
Purchased this tea infuser as a friend gave me loose leaf tea as a gift for Christmas. For the price, you really can't complain. As other's have mentioned, you do end up with some loose tea in your drink, but it's bearable, at least for me. It's super cute and I really like the little dish that comes with it to sit on after you've finished steeping your tea. Clean up is very easy. The product came A LOT sooner than expected, which was nice.

My new favorite Kitchen accessory
Amazing little accessory for the kitchen. This is perfect for one cup of tea with your favorite loose leaf variety.-The color is bright and and easy to see and goes well with my kitchen.-I've noticed that the strainer does float a little bit in your tea but nothing to be worried about. This actually helps in deeper cups or mugs so you can see the leaf sticking out when you are ready to grab it after steeping time.-Clean up has been a breeze with a simple hot or warm water rinse of the top and bottom sections.-And the price is so good, how can you say no?
