What to say about this? It's a glass mug containing a removable plastic tea infuser used for straining loose-leaf tea rather than tea bags, and it's made by Bodum, a company known for its modern styling (and high prices).
The infuser is simply a plastic sieve that can be used in any cup or mug, which is handy because I don't find the glass one you get here to be particularly conducive to a nice tea drinking experience. It's not that it's bad, it just looks and feels a bit 'seventies' - you know, like a prop from The Sweeney. Of course this might be your bag so don't let it put you off, I would have just preferred it if Bodum had supplied a nicer cup or maybe sold the infuser on its own.
The infuser itself is very effective at straining tea - the smallest particles do tend to get through, as I'm sure they would with any other strainer or infuser, but this really doesn't affect the drink at all. It also feels well made and seems like it should last a long time, though you will notice that the white plastic mesh becomes stained quite quickly and this staining isn't easy to remove. Tea also has a tendency to get stuck at the bottom, so a thorough clean is required after every use. I don't think it says on the packaging that you can clean it in the dishwasher, but I regularly wash mine this way and it doesn't seem to harm it at all.
It's a little difficult to get too excited about a glass mug with a plastic sieve inside, but if you're in the market for something to make your loose-leaf tea in, and don't need a whole pot, this is probably the quickest and easiest solution.

This would be a five star review but the design lets it down. For some reason the bottom of the infuser is made from plastic with 18 small holes in it, although the holes are small they are big enough to let the tea leaves pass through. I can't understand why the bottom of the infuser is not made from the same material as the sides, this material does not let the tea leaves through.

It's quite a nice cup with rounded edges. The odd bit is the infuser lid-come-stand which isn't pictured here. This is a small piece of round plastic that fits snugly in the top of the infuser It took me a good few minutes to prise it off as the wings of the infuser don't allow you much grip. Once it's off for the first time it becomes a lot easier to pop it on and off again- but be warned if this is a gift for someone with limited manual dexterity- you'll send them potty!
