Does it loosen if you drink hot coffee or tea?

No, I have recommend this to a friend just today. Both my daughter and myself have been using it for a long time. I originally got it because a dentist screwed up my plate with an "office reline." Needless to say I never will return to that dentist. I have had dentures since I was 8 years old, and this is great.

No, however the construction is such that it cools very slowly. With tea, I prefer to refresh the water anyway, unlike coffee, which can be held at temp for awhile without impacting the taste.

It is tight to start with, loosens a bit over time... It should never be really loose as it has to hold quite a bit of pressure. Also, never open it immediately after (or during) brewing as you could be injured (read the manual for more on that).

I don't know. I just fold over the top and place in teapot....have no trouble with the loose tea slipping out.

Yes, it is the same level of snug with or without the infuser. The infuser is secured to the middle of the lid.

Although the instructions say not to use with hot liquids, judging from the great build material of the bottle, It can definitely be able to hold hot beverages. Just make sure the tea is already brewed prior.

I would assume it's all the same temperature. My tea seemed to be as hot as the coffee.

No, it gets too hot! And the belt does not adjust well to other shapes! I had a hard time with the mugs.

When I use a tea cozy, it does get hot. My biggest problem is that the pot drips when pouring.

You can get hot water for your cup and put your tea bag in it. It works great, it gets a lot of usage at our office at work.

yes, after a few uses they loosen up nicely. Purchased 2 with the table for my son, and then 2 more for a Christmas present for him because he liked them so much.

I use a tea ball for loose teas and have never encountered your problem. It is a very lovely tea pot and we use it daily.

It shouldn't all fall out, but some will, but a little loose tea floating wont affect the taste. Just let it all sink down to the bottom and then you can drink it like normal.

I've had no trouble with hot drinks, but my hand does get a bit warm while holding them

yes, and after returning two other american/chinese, I finally found the gold! Keeps my tea hot all night for the morning. No dripping or spilling when pouring. I am really happy with this purchase.

Yes, i use it with loose tea all the time. The holes are quite small and allow only a very small amount of "tea dust" to settle in the bottom of the cup. It is about the same as using a fine mesh tea ball.

yes, it is comfortable and does not has sharp edges. If I want to drink my coffee while its too hot I remove the lid and I enjoy drinking
