This particular model can be used in the microwave for student or traveler with access to a microwave but no hot pot. Let brew for 3 - 5 minutes and dispense the tea by placing on top of a mug. Having said that, I own 2 of these and love them. Practically same product first debuted in Teavana, this tea brewer is quite clever. Put in the tea and add hot water. Only design flaw is I wish I could take the bottom apart for better scrubbing.
Filter will stay down when cold water is in it but when the water gets hot in the microwave it floats up and you have to push it down with a spoon for awhile to get it to stay. However, I have also had problems getting the filter to stay in once the water is hot (see reviews for other items with this cup). Overall generally happy with the purchase. Great teas. I have bought several of the variety packs and have been impressed with the quality of the tea for the price. Or if you boil water on the stove and then pour it in the cup, the filter will not stay in place either.
Augustine, FL, and had to have one. A glass version would be nice, but we still love it. We first used this item at a cafe in St. It works so much better with loose leaf teas than tea balls that we have now switched completely to loose leaf tea instead of tea bags.
Great for both hot and Iced tea. I LOVE ADIAGO flavored tea's as well the apricot and Rasberry are wonderful The easiest and best tea maker and the TEA's are wonderful I have given then as gifts and everyone LOVED THEM. Can heat the teapot in the Microwave so it is great to take to work with you.
The instructions are on the box, so don't toss it until you've read them. The tea is great, too. We received this as a gift, and really enjoy it. It's easy to use and to clean. A really nice gift.
