Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bodum Assam 4-Cup Tea Press
Customer Review: A great way to brew tea!
Summary: 5 Stars
I must have made tea 10 times in the last two days, just to get to use this teapot!
I received it is a birthday gift and instantly fell in love. It looks amazing, with or without tea, and while that's hardly what matters most, it's certainly a nice addition. More importantly, it's very helpful to be able to see the tea as it brews, and I'm thrilled at not having to use a tea infuser.
Instead of emptying the infuser and throwing out the leaves, you can just seal them off (very easily!), and when you're ready to make more tea, you can just uncover them and pour in more water. And if you're in a hurry, you can even brew the tea faster by pushing the plunger up and down.
The pot seems very solid, and while I wouldn't drop it on the floor, I don't worry about breathing on it or putting it in a stack of dishes to dry. I really don't see anything not to love about this tea press!
Customer Review: wonderful tea
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this tea pot!!! Keeps the tiniest little bits of tea from escaping. Brews very well!Customer Review: Press - NOT
Summary: 1 Stars
I thought this would be more like the coffee press, which I really liked. This thing doesn't press the tea at all, since the rod doesn't go to the bottom. Taste of the tea is not nearly as good as when brewed by my previous method. Am trying to think up some other use for it, but so far no ideas. Seems like a singularly useless product. Customer Review: A cheap product

It is a cheap made-in-China junk. My wife spotted the same product for $10 at Ross. Customer Review: I got rid of mine
Summary: 1 Stars
I can not possibly understand why they would make the strainer basket out of plastic. Why would I want to subject plastic to boiled water? There is a great deal of concern with plastics reaction to heat today. Is this plastic safe? I don't know. I emailed the company asking exactly what kind of plastic is used. They responded the plastic used is safe for human use. ???
That's their opinion without knowing exactly what plastic is used who knows if it is safe. Why not use stainless steel stainers in all their units? This applies to the 6 cup unit also.
