When I first got these, it surprised me the filters were so big. However, I think the size is just to give you leeway over how you use these. I could easily see it being chucked into a huge pitcher of water to cold steep any tea blend of your choosing.
Overall, I am thrilled with this product. I think these work great for certain teas (e.g. herbal, rooibos, green etc.) But with others, it is better to let the leaves dance in the water, lol!
Like I did not like these for oolong or teas with large chunks of dark chocolate (sometimes I need to swirl the teas around a bit in hot water to get them to melt)
But a great product! The real taste for me was to see if these let any rooibos teas poke through since rooibos (since the leaves of this plant can be so tiny). And success! No rooibos got through, so I am quite happy with this product.

If you should ever want something more reusable, these are my favorite:
The only thing I generally break out the filter bags for is chamomile, because the little stamens are so tiny!
