Is there enough room to drop tea bags with hot water in there?

I'm not sure what you mean. Did you mean is there enough room to get tea bags out? Of course there's enough room to drop tea bags in unless you want to put a couple of hundred in there. Yes, the hole is large enough to get them out assuming you have a spoon small enough to fit in the hole and if it's long enough to reach the bottom.

Absolutely, the opening on top is about two plus inches across. There is a tube that pumpsThe coffee or tea out with a half inch opening on the bottom but it does not rest on the bottom for what it might mean to you. Hope this helps. It is a really nice unit.

I don't see why not! I just stuck a tea bag in mine, and it fits if you fold it. You may have to move it around a bit, instead of letting it sit though.

I have made tea directly in it -- I pour very hot (not quite boiling) water in and add the teabag. I've never had a problem.... but perhaps I'm just lucky. I typically don't put the cover back on until it's cooled a bit.

I haven't tried brewing tea in this, but I don't see why not. You could probably just put the tea bags in the same place you would put the coffee. They would fit.

I just use a tea bag w/ out the infuser but you probably could fit it in there

You could take one of the little dividers out and put the whole Celestial Seasonings bag into the bigger slots (like they are in the tea boxes when you buy them) but I wouldn't recommend putting the individual bags in here by themselves. The lid closes pretty well but it doesn't have a secure latch to keep it air tight so over time it could cause the tea to lose flavor.

The holes in the storage cone is about 1 1/2 inches long and 1/16 wide so if the leaves are bigger then tea bag leaves it might work. I still thing some of them will float through the openings.

I have not used it with tea bags, but I don't see any reason why you can't A tea bag would certainly fit inside the Manatea.

I guess you could store tea bags in it. It is really designed for k cups. No, it has a solid bottom. There are no holes, it is not open underneath.

Yes, you can! I tried using a tea bag, but the tea tasted weak. But good idea with the loose tea, maybe the tea will come out better.

Yes and the bags are pretty big so the heat may last awhile. Worst case empty the water if it cools and put in fresh hot water.

If you're using a tea bag, just put the other stuff in the sweet leaf. The water needs to flow through the leaf, so don't pack it full.

I Have not tried but I sure bet it can. Not like bagged tea. Unless you cut the bag and dump the contents. The thing is tea needs time to seep and with this item it vacuums all the water back as soon as it cools (1-3 Min) and may not give enough time.

Sorry, I actually bought it for another use, but I agree with Ashley Hays. Looking at it, each compartment should easily hold 15 tea bags.

Yes, that's the first thing I did when I got mine. I made a pot of tea. Since then I have made tea with both loose tea and tea bags. Turns out fine either way. Seems to work well for either tea or coffee. It's not scalding hot, but hot enough.

Yes, it's fine for all types of loose tea. You can pour boiling water directly into the teapot.

Yes!! The bags will sit upright and the lid still closes. I love this tea box!!
