Guide Review - IngenuiTEA Tea Pot

I think this is the neatest teapot I've ever seen. The fine-mesh filter is the base of the teapot. There is a plastic plate on the bottom that works with a valve to keep your tea inside the pot. But when you place the teapot on top of a tea cup, the base plate compresses and the tea flows from the pot, through the filter and into your cup. When just sitting on the counter, the base is sealed and secure. It didn't drip a drop. If you have coffee mugs or tea cups with larger than usual mouths, the IngenuiTEA teapot might not work for you. Even with the filter at the bottom of the pot, it was easy to clean out.
