- Conceptually, Brilliant . . . In Practice, FLAWED
This tea infuser is definitely brilliant, although only in idea. Using it is another matter. First, the fuse basket is poorly designed. I don't think it gives loose tea enough room to fully brew. Second, the basket itself is very flimsy and extremely hard to stay securely in the pot when pouring. As soon as you reach 90 degrees the basket just falls out. You cannot hold onto the lid to keep it in place as you pour because it is very hot. The plunger is made of stainless steel, making it near impossible ... Read More

- Perfect Tea every time!
The Bodum Assam 4-Cup Tea Press makes brewing perfect tea from loose tea leaves both fun and simple.If you prefer loose tea to tea bags, and enjoy tea at the office, this is the way to do it.The basket easily holds five teaspoons of loose tea (one per cup plus "one for the pot").Pour in hot water, wait four to five minutes and press down the plunger.This pushes the leaves to the bottom of the basket, and seals them in so they don't continue infusing the tea. You have perfect tea, that doesn't grow ... Read More

I was a little worried that the glass seemed thin but I haven't broken or cracked it yet.
I would buy this for a fellow ... Read More
Rating: - Great tea press!
I received this pot as a gift from a friend of mine about a year and a half ago and after almost daily use over that time, I have no complaints whatsoever about this pot.It brews an excellent cup of tea and in whatever strength you desire - just keep an eye on the colour and press when done.I usually pump the press a few times while steeping to encourage water circulation.This is NOT a good pot for preparing tea that is as finely cut as the tea you see in bagged tea; I tend to drink only loose leaf teas and ...

Rating: - Good intro teapot for looseleaf tea
My husband likes tea and he uses this whenever we don't have coffee. You have to boil water in another pot for use in this teapot since it is a French Press teapot.
