3.0 out of 5 stars Yellow Submarine Tea Infuser June 6, 2011

Super-cute, but not for all tea leaves. I learned that the hard way with Thai tea, which I had bugged my boyfriend into sending me. It was also difficult to clean this thing out afterwards; that particular experience was an unmitigated disaster.

I'm sure it works better with other tea leaves which aren't ground so small, but those other teas that I drink already come in their own teabags.

5.0 out of 5 stars Who's the most adorable infuser in the world? You are! December 15, 2011

By Jane

Ah, I love my yellow submarine tea infuser. I haven't used any tea leaves so fine that I had any issues with it. I wish it had a little more ventilation? holes? Whatever you call them, because it doesn't steep quickly. You have to bob it up and down for a bit to get a good steeping. That aside, it is the CUTEST thing in the world, and you can't beat silicone which is a safe and very food safe material. The chain is long enough for most glasses and mugs as well.

Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Teas all live in a yellow submarine, yellow submarine... October 8, 2012

This is such a fun product! Even though it's hard to clean the teas out of it, it's so amazingly cute and reminds me of my beloved Beatles, so I can forgive it anything. My cat loves to fish for it in my mug full of tea, and she has a great taste, so, giving it extra points. Now I need to find a way to keep my cat paws away from my tea. But it's not the little thing's fault. It's all my cat. Happy tea time!

Our 9 mo. old daughter got this for daddy's first father's day as he's on a Tea-kick these days and is also a HUGE Beetles fan... he absolutley loved this and it's so easy to clean. It's really the perfect size too, only thing I can say that bothers me is that some of the loose tea flakes seap through but maybe it's the tea I purchased.. could be ground too finely?

I bought this for my daughter at Xmas. She's really into David's Teas at the moment. She uses it pretty regularly. My only complaint about it is that it's not that easy to get the leftover loose tea out. Otherwise, good deal and super cute for anyone who like the Beatles!

2.0 out of 5 stars Holes too big for most teas January 23, 2012

By Antoinette

I find the holes on the bottom of this infuser are far too large for most loose teas. Even with some of the larger-leaf teas, I end up with a mug of dregs. I'll be switching back to my less-cute, but more functional mesh infuser.

Got this, shipping was super fast, tried it out. It works but not well. Some of the holes are big enough to let some of the small particles from loose leaf tea to get through. Kinda disappointing. It's also a mega pain in the but to clean the tea out of... Oh well:( My tea won't live in a yellow submarine:(
