| Awkward Handle - not like the picture | October 04, 2012 | |
| I was so excited to get this tea mug with infuser. I have no issues with the infuser, but the mug itself is not of the quality I expected. The walls are thin and the handle is very awkward. The handle is not like the picture, but is a reverse "c" shaped handle which makes it difficult to hold while very hot. I do like the lid, but I would not purchase as a gift or for myself again. |
| New to hot tea | March 30, 2012 | |
| I'm new to drinkinig hot tea. I'm a long time coffee lover and wanted to try something new. I have learned a lot from Republic of Tea. Over the websites I have look over they have a great selection and have educated me on the "art" of tea. I like my new cup and plan to enjoy many many types of tea in it. |
| Not comfortable | March 02, 2012 | |
| I like the simplicity of design, but aesthetics are the only high note. The handle is awkward and difficult to grip without placing a good part of your fingers directly against the mug itself. Which brings me to my next disatisfaction...the walls of this mug are thinner than I would like, which coupled with the awkward handle, has me pretty much unable to drink until it has cooled down as the sides conduct way too much heat. |

| Nice, clean cup with great brew basket w/lid. Great gift idea for the tea lover. |
| Handle very small | July 31, 2011 | |
| I have to say I was disappointed with this mug. The handle is small and narrow, difficult to get a good grip on. And I have no issues with manual dexterity -- definitely do not recommend this for anyone who has dexterity issues. The brew basket is very useful, nice and big -- I just use it in a different mug. |
