The verdict
Where this pick fits.
Borosilicate glass body, removable stainless steel infuser basket, lid that doubles as a saucer when the steep is done. One person, one cup, the full ritual: load the basket, steep to color, lift the basket onto the lid. No teapot required. No second person required.
One cup. The full ritual. Load, steep, lift the basket onto the lid. It earned its spot in our lineup by solving the stage it's supposed to solve, without pretending to solve every stage after it.
