Review on πŸ”΄ Red Stellar Padded Tea Cozy Cozie Cozy with Stellar Thermal Technology - STE10R by Toby Galbraith

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Don't even think about deleting it!

We bought this tea bag to replace a tea bag I brought from England in 2014 which still works but no longer brightens up our kitchen. An important factor is that we drink at least 4 cups of tea every day. The kettle and tea box are in constant use, more or less 24/7. My first impression was that the dimensions given in the description are very optimistic. It's nominally the same size as the one it replaced, but it fits much more snugly around the kettle. I also noticed that it turned out to be a lot thinner than I expected compared to what's available in the UK. However, this turned out to be unimportant - the lid keeps tea warm for hours, like a thicker one. Of course, with constant use, the cover will eventually need to be washed. We only tried it once. The color changed from a pleasing bright red to a dull deep pink. But it wasn't the worst. The lining has almost completely dissolved, exposing the insulating layer completely. If you're an occasional tea drinker and have a small teapot, this might work for your purposes. If you're serious about tea like we are, look elsewhere. I will not buy this tea again. We are traveling to England next year and one of our stops will be to buy a real tea chest that will last for years.
