Question 1

What is the infuser / strainer like? Is it a squashy mesh construction or solid stainless steel cup with tiny holes? Thanks.

Accepted Answer

Hi,

Somewhere between the two.

It is a thin sheet of stainless steel folded into a cylinder shape and perforated with lots of tiny holes. It is very sturdy and has a pivoted plastic handle to remove it while still hot without personal injury and to halt the infusion process at the right time.

I use this every day many times and the only word of caution I can add is that he aforementioned handle is anchored in such a way as to lay flat on top of the infuser in only one position. Forcing it the wrong way could compromise the anchorage, but it is easy to get into the routine of doing it correctly so should not be an issue.

Having been a proponent of loose leaf tea for around 60 years (not a fan of tea bags!) I can safely say this is one of the better teapots I have used on a long time. It pours well, feels solid and robust and the industrial construction gives it a build quality sadly lacking in many lesser examples.

I opted for the orange version and find it looks great on our beverage station. Being ceramic it does not stain too badly and is fairly easy to clean when it does.

Even though it is ceramic, the handle never exceeds comfort level and is about the right size to hold with confidence.

I hope this helps and you have many happy pours with this pot.

Question 2

Where are they manufactured?

Accepted Answer

Sorry but there is no information on the pot itself to indicate its manufacturing source; perhaps this was on the packaging which I do not have.Mike Field
