Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Primula Flowering Tea Set with 40-Ounce Pot, Clear
Customer Review: IM SO HAPPY WITH THIS PRODUCT!
Summary: 5 Stars
i wrote in another review the same thing. but the tea is amazing, it's beautiful and DELICIOUS!!! o boy was it delicious i refilled it about 4 times in my 5 cup holder and you can only keep it for 24 hours - it probably was mild not as strong because i kept refilling it so much but wow! if you can find this product for cheaper price please do! but i am very satisfied ! and the tea pot is so cute!!! ... yes it is true that it takes a while for the water to filter through the dry tea when putting it into that cup ... and the tiny holes will get dirty but theres nothing an ear stick wont get out.. i hope you understand this review!! goodluck!! :]Customer Review: Infuser very poorly designed
Summary: 2 Stars
The teapot is sturdier than I expected and has survived a lot of use, but I would never buy it again. Sure, clear glass is a nice medium if you want to use tea flowers like the ones that come in the set, but the glass infuser is a disaster. The tea is supposed to brew through four sets of slits in the bottom, which get clogged easily, are difficult to clean, and don't allow enough water to flow through. The tiny slits make it hard to fill the teapot because the infuser can't drain into the pot fast enough. To fill the teapot with tea in the infuser, I have to pour in water, wait as it slowly drains through into the pot out of the infuser, pour in more water, wait, pour in more water and wait, and then pour in the final bit of water. When I try to pour the tea, the lid and infuser fall out, so I have to hold them on or remove them. Tea leaves get wedged in the slits and have a hard time getting them back out when I wash it.
The one big upside is that it is very lightweight for a teapot this size. Plus, if you generally use tea flowers or bagged tea, this teapot will work just fine for you. It really is dishwasher safe even on the bottom rack. It will also survive rapid temperature changes, like dropping a bunch of ice into hot tea.

Summary: 5 Stars
I love a good pot of tea, and this wonderful set provides beauty to the brewing process, beyond compare. I really love the glass teapot and infuser, it is just the right size, and this gift set is great because it comes with a cannister of twelve flowering teas (with many varied flowers!), so you can use it the minute you open the box!
I gave this set a five star rating mostly based on the teapot itself, and on the entire blooming tea experience. For my tastes, I must warn you that the Primula Jasmine green tea that comes with the set has very little, if any, jasmine flavor. I am used to using a good quality jasmine pearl green tea (such as Rishi, but there are many other brands which you can also purchase here on Amazon in the grocery department), so I enjoy a healthy amount of jasmine flavor in my tea.
I am not saying that the green tea that comes with this set is poor quality, just that it is extremely weak in jasmine flavor. In truth, I couldn't even detect it at all. So the experience of the tea for me is closer to just drinking a decent quality Chinese green tea, without any flavor enhancers. If I was rating the jasmine tea that comes with the set, I would only give the tea three stars, by itself. I am going to shop around and perhaps try some of the other blooming tea brands to see if I can find one that more closely matches my own taste.
Despite that, I am very happy that I purchased this lovely set, and I am just about to buy another one as a gift for favorite sister-in-law. Enjoy!
Customer Review: MADE MY DAY
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this teapot when I had a ladies tea planned at my church, but I never thought that I would receive it in time. I placed the order on a Tuesday, and the event was on Saturday morning. I received a free shipping promo on the item, and the website said that it would ship within 7 days. I could not have been more amazed than to get home on Wednesday (yes that is the next day) to find the package on my porch! The product is BEAUTIFUL, and I received many complements on it at my ladies tea, where it was the center of attention!
