Product Description Features: Fits in backpack or purse. Drink through sipping lid or brew tea with steeping lid. Transport with leak-proof lid. 12 ounce capacity.
Amazon.com Review Virtually unbreakable, this lightweight, vacuum-insulated thermos travels to work or your favorite recreation spot. On arrival, and for hours afterward, coffee, tea, or soup will still be hot. Or lemonade, pasta salad, or a sports drink will still be chilled. Compact (7 inches high) and shapely, this thermos has a "waist" for firm gripping indented in its satin-finish exterior and tough, nonslip, black plastic top and bottom. There's a choice of two twist tops, one for coffee and another, with a stainless steel strainer, for tea--each has a sip-hole, and a cap twists onto either to prevent spills. Fine threading ensures tops and cap seal tightly, while the smooth interior cleans with sponge or cloth. Preheating or prechilling with hot or cold water is recommended. --Fred Brack

Tea bags welcome October 3, 2008 M. Sorenson (San Francisco, CA USA) It works well for tea bags or tea leaves. What's nice is that you can put boiling water into it and the temperature on the outside of the tumbler barely elevates in temperature. If you are on the go, and you are a tea drinker, just boil your water throw in a bag (don't need the infuser) or leaves (needs the infuser) and you're ready to go. It has 2 different lids: one w/ the infuser and one w/o (like a typical coffee lid) and then a cap (fits on both inserts) to seal in the heat. And in case you were wondering, it can be used equally well for coffee.
Plastic September 29, 2008 Yahtzee! (San Francisco, CA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Just FYI, the lid, the strainer edge, and the sippy cup adaptor are made of plastic. Not a big deal for many of you, but I avoid plastics. I wish the picture had shown the sippy cup. I might keep it, remove the strainer and drink out of the stainless steel side without the plastic, though. Just wanted to provide that info for people who (wisely) avoid plastics.
Leakproof and hot, really hot. August 22, 2008 Mimila (Brazil) I bought the "Liquid Solutions Tea-zer Tea Brewing Tumbler with Infuser Basket" in one of my trips and I was really in love with it. But I couldn't really rely on the "leakproof" feature. A while after, it would leak for real and I had do give up using it. Then I found this Thermos Nissan! WOW!!! It is really leakproof. I just close and throw it inside my backpack, not caring the position I put it. In fact, my only complain is that it keeps my tea too hot for too long. But, well, this shouldn't be a problem, right? So, I'm not complaining. If you are worried about the tea leaves and what to do with them after brewing your tea, just put the leaves inside the mug, before the infuser. This way, you can drink your tea and the leaves will stay there until you can throw it away. Just two warnings. Don't be fooled. It does get a little hot outside (I mean, you won't get burned, of course, but it will melt your chocolate, if there is one inside your backpack near it.) and it gets a little stained inside (even though I'm drinking white tea). Anyway, it's a great product, you don't even need to think twice.
Almost perfect for tea-lovers August 12, 2008 Berta Higgins (San Diego, CA) I purchased this item due to the number of great reviews. After using it for a few weeks I agree that it keeps things very hot for very long, has a great seal (no leaks), and is easy to use. The only thing I don't like is the mesh for straining tea is just too big, there are always various bits of tea that get through and end up at the bottom of the mug. A finer mesh would have made this item just about perfect.
So good it will probably be discontinued April 24, 2008 D. Grove (Friday Harbor, Wa USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've been beating this mug up for over a year. The mug's not as pretty as it used to be but it works just as well as the day I received it. Buy two; you'll want to give one to someone as a gift.
