Title: infuser ruins it
Product review: I got this because it has an infuser and I could make tea and drink it all day.Unfortunately the infuser is too small to allow tea leaves to expand, it's a piece of garbage plastic, and the holes are too big allowing tea leaves to escape.After the first pot of tea using the built in infuser I had 2 issues.1. tea tasted like plastic2. i couldn't take the tea leaves out of the infuser since it's so small and narrow.I'll have to use a different infuser. Hopefully the plastic taste is only from the infuser and I can use it as a regular pot.EDIT (Dec 2009):I was reading other reviews and someone recommended these bags to use (100 Finum Tea Filter, Large, Brown). I think this is the only way to use this carafe. I don't want it to be a waste of money... On the positive side, the carafe works ok and tea made with the paper tea bags tasted alright. So it's not a complete waste. It held tea warm for a long period and I like how the base is wide so it's tough to knock over.
