Review on Efficient and Stylish RSVP International Tea Strainer Collection: Large 2-1/2-inch Diameter by Ramon Parra

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect fit for my Tetsubin

I bought the 2-1/2" size because the 2" mug sized tea ball just isn't big enough to hold enough tea for a whole (small) pot and still give that leaves room to draw properly. It's amazing! It even fits in a mug or cup of tea, although that's probably too much. I was very pleased with the secure closure. This teapot falls in my teapot won't come apart no matter what I do it with this.(Just don't bend any hard metal parts.) It was packaged in a thin cardboard box which fitted perfectly and protected the ball well enough from being crushed by the textbooks that came with it, a regular netball, if banging in the drawer is unavoidable, just gently use your finger to pop out the dents.Fill it completely, as loose leaf tea takes up a lot of space since allowing the water to flow around the leaves. The frozen leaves will also expand during the brewing process. If you pack your tea infuser too tightly, you won't get the full flavor (particularly bitter or astringent) in your cup and will use up your tea too quickly.

Pros
  • Excellent overall specs
Cons
  • Crumpled
