Amazon.com Review:
This glass tea mug turns the act of brewing tea into an artistic presentation. Loose tea leaves are placed into the glass infuser, hot water is added, and when the water reaches the desired color or strength, the infuser is lifted out along with all the loose leaves. With its wide loop handle, the mug can be picked up and carried without fingers touching the hot glass. Tea flowers look beautiful in the mug, too, and work best without the infuser. Made of lightweight yet laboratory-strength borosilicate glass that won't stain, the mug may be used on the stovetop or in the microwave, and both the mug and infuser are dishwasher-safe.

For the tea drinker, Primula also sells a glass teapot and packets of tea flowers, which are AA-grade green tea leaves and actual dried flowers that are hand-sewn into tight balls by artisans in China. After a tea flower ball is place in hot water, it will slowly sink to the bottom and unfurl into full "bloom." Some even have two different kinds of flowers that unfurl into a colorful spectacle and add flavor to the tea. --Ann Bieri

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Tea Time!
The Primula tea maker mug resembles a mason jar and it's quite charming.The glass is fine and thin so it feels very fragile; if you're washing by hand, make sure you handle it gently as it can easily break.However fragile it may feel, the mug and all its parts are dishwasher safe as well as microwaveable.

Just as the directions indicate, you put your favorite loose tea into the infuser and you let it rest on the lip of the glass mug while you pour hot water into both infuser and ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best taste, need a toothbrush to clean, looks okay
I didn't think I would notice a taste difference using this diffuser versus a metal one, but I certainly did.This was SO much smoother.I loved it.Little bits of tea can get stuck in the diffuser, but a toothbrush gets them out.The design of the glass/handle isn't the best, but it's worth it to get the glass diffuser.I also found this at a common brick and mortar store for 2/3 the price here.With their 20% off coupon it was a steal.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Works well...could be better looking
This item appears similar to the Bodum product that had received negative reviews here on Amazon. After reading those reviews, I decided to buy Primula's version since I was able to find it at a brick and mortar store and had a discount coupon for that store. Also, I wanted to see if it has the same problems as the Bodum version. After weeks of use, this tea mug still works fine, but the slitted part of the infuser has started to stain. I had expected this since the surface of the slits aren't smooth ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful Glass Infuser for Tea
If you like better teas then you should use a glass infuser to really get the full flavor. Paper filters or metal strainers sometimes tamper the taste of the hot water. This glass tea infuser allows you to really get the true flavor of the tea.It is great with green, black or white teas.
