I drink a lot of tea and wanted something reusable. I was using disposable refillable tea bags before and I was worried about my environmental effect as well as the cost. I checked these out and the reviews were hot and cold. So I took a shot. Ive had them now for over a month and use them daily for about five cups of tea a day so a decent amount of use. The balls are light mesh so they bend a little, but it doesnt effect use. They hold about a tablespoon of tea. Ive only hand washed them, so no idea if they hold up in a dishwasher. The clasp can be annoying because you have to line a little prong into the hole and then swing the clasp over to secure it. Sometimes it doesnt want to go in but you wiggle it and its fine. The hook that goes over the edge of the cup and chain is fairly sturdy. If you have thick walled mugs, you might need to bend it a little bit to fit, but so far most cups it has fit. Realistically, I can't complain. These are cheap, easy to clean, hold a decent amount, fairly sturdy, and they work well. I would buy again when these wear out. For the price, they are totally worth it. Cheaper than the disposable bags. Read more

I use these tea balls every day, and they’ve held up beautifully! The mesh is fine enough that no loose tea leaves escape, and the stainless steel feels durable and easy to clean. The clasp closes securely so it never pops open mid-steep. They’re the perfect size for a single cup or small teapot, and the little chain makes it easy to hang on the rim without fishing it out with a spoon. I love how quick they are to use — just rinse, refill, and go. If you’re a tea lover who enjoys loose leaf blends, these are exactly what you need — simple, reliable, and built to last. Highly recommend! Read more

A bit flimsy on the hinge but work well. I have had to put them back together and squeeze the hinge tighter on both of them but otherwise they are working well. I have used them daily for a few months now Read more

Doesn't clasp tightly enough. Some tea leaves escape! Read more

Caution, not 100% stainless. See my pics. I bought a two pack on October 22. I make tea on the weekends only. It is Nov 20 when writing this. I made 4 pots of tea (1 pot per weekend) washing and reusing the same tea ball. I noticed some black stuff around the closure but I assumed that it was some discoloring from my tea. Tonight I was cleaning my tea ball and the latch fell off. Looking closer, the pivot/ alignment pin is corroded away until it fell off. I have been drinking my tea with this dissolved, unknown metal/ unknown plating/ lead solder? I have no idea what I just consumed. Very unhappy. Read more

I use these for my loose cut teas, normally using 1 teaspoon oftea in each mesh ball for my taste of brewing a favorite of Earl Grey with Bergamot. Easy to clean, nothing stuck after use. Read more

These work great for loose leaf tea. I was a little worried about the size at first, however, the size is perfect. I used hibiscus tea and it came out perfect. Read more
