Quality tool

Two part review - first part on the flask itself. After regular use for a few weeks, I feel it is a solid, quality item that will stand up to daily use. The liner in the flask and cup keep liquid hot through my morning at work. Consider washing nightly to prevent build up of tea on the pour spout and gasket. Exercise caution when opening as some pressure may build and will splash some hot droplets at times. I have learned to simply open it facing away from me to mitigate. Second part is more personal on how the flask works in my tea regimen. I love the 400ml size as it's usually enough of a type of tea for me before wanting to move on to something else. The flask is designed to drop the leaves in and go, filtering at the spout, but I stopped using it like this after a couple of weeks. In my experience, only a few forgiving white teas or smaller amount of jasmine pearls (12-15) would tolerate the permanent steeping without getting too astringent for my taste. Instead, I now appreciate the simplicity of the size, insulating quality and built in cup as a way to take my tea outside of my home environment along with a vessel to brew with - a gaiwan or small pot. In this use, I am still satisfied, even if it isn't maximizing the intended use.

Absolutely wonderful

Wow, this flask is amazing!! I brew in the morning ready for work and I have wonderful tea for hours. Absolutely amazing, highly recommended.
