3 out of 5 stars Does the job, but could do it a bit better...   October 22, 2008

I first tried this spoon/tea ball with some Rishi Organic Earl Grey Loose Tea.

The spoon seems to be fairly well constructed... it hasn't broken yet.

Easy to use and well balanced, sits very well on all of our tea cups.

The only thing I don't like about the spoon is that it doesn't seal all that well and the mesh seems a bit too big, so you end up with a fair amount of loose debris in the bottom of your cup.

All in all it works well for the price if you are willing to put up with some added "tea debris" in the bottom of your cup. So in the meantime I'll continue to use it while I go searching for a better one.

Pros:
Cheap!
Balances/holds well on a variety of different sized tea cups.
Easy to use.

Cons:
Doesn't latch very well so some of the tea leaves get loose.
Mesh isn't fine enough, so again some of the tea leaves get loose.
Made in China...
