SAMA "MC05" Insulated Thermal Flask with Cup for Brewing Tea

Great flask

Someone recently broke my glass tea flask, which gave me the opportunity to upgrade to the SAMA flask. It's very elegant, with a ceramic interior for both the flask and the cup. The cup is enjoyable to drink from. The flask holds heat well. Neither the cup nor the flask have show signs of staining yet, although I've used the flask multiple times. We'll see how the plastic parts hold up over time.

Great, but for one flaw

This is a very nice little tea thermos. The lid/cup is easy to clean and is lined with white ceramic, which seems resistant to staining- ditto with the inside. It does not seem to impart any flavor to the water. The strainer does what it's supposed to without slowing flow, and is easily rinsed. My one complaint is that the lip causes some tea to flow around the edge and dribble. For the price, I would expect a better design here.

Tried them all and really couldn’t find something better than this. Ultimate convenient luxury.
