This is, first of all, a beautiful mug. Anyone who appreciates good pottery will enjoy having it. Best of all, it is dishwasher safe, which is wonderful for the frequent tea drinker like me! The only downside is that the holes in the strainer are a bit big, so too much loose tea ends up in the mug. But, with larger leaf teas, this is not much of a problem. Despite this, I heartily recommend this lovely tea mug!

It's pretty enough, but the holes in the strainer are really big, which makes loose tea, which it seemed to be designed for, kinda iffy. Also, the thick lip makes drinking somewhat difficult.

Nice idea especially for inveterate tea drinker, but sieve-like strainer makes one feel at a prelude to tea leaf reading. Also, lid is meant as cover--not primarily a strainer cradle as pictured! We are definitely not in our cups.

First, the faults - The infuser is ineffective for the loose-leaf black and herbal teas that I own. It keeps out the largest leaves but lets a lot through. Also, the mug conducts heat more than I would prefer.

On the positive side, the smooth curved shape is wonderful to hold in my hands. It was lovely to cradle the mug in both hands during cold winter days.

Despite its failings, I did buy another one of these mugs as a gift for a friend.

This is another quality stoneware product, offered at fair value price. The large tulip shaped 15 oz. mug is attractive and can be left out on a counter as an accent decoration when not in use. When its just you alone, you can brew up a single generous cup of proper loose tea in the cup for just yourself. The infuser lid can be placed over the cup to keep the tea hot for an extended period of time between sips, the lid may also be used as a saucer. This is an excellent product It was delivered promply and arrived in perfect shape.

The mug was exactly as advertised, was in good condition when delivered, and was of quality materials.

This is the best tea mug! The lid keeps the tea hot while it's steeping, when the tea is ready the lid becomes the setting place for the infuser -- no mess! The mug itself is sturdy and the color is vibrant. It's so great that I had to buy some for friends.

Item is pleasant to look at and the basic idea is good, however, this particular design is a little too tippy to be really safe. Was delivered as promised.
