 indeed the perfect cup of tea August 30, 2008
This is a great cup it is larger and makes enought tea for two people at any given time. It does not leak but does come with a coaster. It is a little different from other tea makers in that you push the handle to the side inorder to strain the tea while others you put the tea maker on top of the cup and the pressure on the bottom of the tea maker strains the tea. However this feature allows you to see how full the cup is without over filling it.
 Super Convenient and can Save you $$ July 7, 2008
I just got this product in and I like it enough to write a review.
We use loose leaf and the biggest advantage is being able to steep your tea multiple times. A lot of loose leaf tea can be steeped 2-4 times and usually (for me at least) the 2nd steeping is the best. So roughly 1 tea spoon of tea can make 3 cups.
I would strongly suggest only drinking loose leaf tea - its so much healthier and tastes way better then tea bags. Even the expensive tea bags like Old Republic taste like dirty ashes in comparison to nice loose leaf tea (not to mention 1 3oz of loose leaf costs about $7-$15 for 40 cups - double or triple steep and that translates to 3 cups of tea a day for a month costing only $15 max).
Now my only concern is I just read a website talking about how tea is good for you and it said that steeping in Metal or Plastic *may* affect the flavor. I have never seen an all glass tea maker for loose leaf so this seems good to me.
Don't fill it to the top and it wont overflow. Leave bout 1 CM from the top and you should be safe. Maybe use a marker to mark the outside of it for the perfect level. We use a water cooler/heater so this is really the perfect combo. Just add hot water to the tea, let it steep, set it on your cup and your good to go.
 a tad disappointing, but very usable May 24, 2008

The pictured cup is not included, it is not a set. It works well, but loose tea is harder to clean out than in a Boodum pot. Also, even in closed position, the drip tray doesn't suffice unless you have patiently, completely drained the bowl of every last drop. Tea tastes good, top rack dishwasher safe.

This is a nice device for steeping and brewing tea. Even though it comes with a coaster it doesn't leak while brewing or when you are finished dispensing tea. It's made of a sturdy plastic that won't easily chip or break. It's well insulated keeping in the brewing heat so you can hold it even when it contains boiling water. It's transparent so you can watch your tea brew and if you have a good eye you can tell when it's done.
But the biggest advantage is it's easy and unique tea dispensing feature. Just put the device on top of your mug and a pressure value opens filling your cup. When your cup is full lift the device and the valve closes.
I have only two nits with the product. If you're not careful you can overfill your mug. I did that a couple of times until I got use to judging the volume. My other nit us that it won't fit my larger cups with openings larger than 3 " in diameter.
Overall, I am very happy with the Smart Tea Maker.
