I originally got this because I was getting tired of using my bodum where the smallest amount I could brew at one time was 2 cups and bits of tea were escaping through the filter into my cup.
The Steepster fixed all of this. I can make as much or as little as I like, and nothing escapes the filter. I love how easy it is to use and clean up. I also like the fact that I’m less likely to break it than a glass teapot, but I can still see the tea brewing.
