Does the infuser insert reach the bottom of the teapot when in use?

I don't think so but I can't be sure. I did not keep the this teapot and I also don't remember why. I found a fabulous tea pot at IKEA for $12.99 that has a metal infuser. It works great!

No it does not, there is 3/4 of an inch between the infuser and the pot when it's fully seated

It stops about one inch above the bottom of the pot. The insert has a lip on the outside near the top which suspends the insert above the pot bottom. Great pot. Well made.

yes, it does. this a pot good for up to four persons. the infuser is deep enough in the pot to dispense the tea flavor. Really nice pot.

I don't have one (yet) but I doubt it. There might be a little ridge for the tea light to sit in, but even if it's just flat on the bottom, the sterno is probably too tall and would get soot on the bottom of your teapot from the flame being too high.

I am not sure. It was a gift, but the strainer was small and at a quick glance did not seem like it would touch the bottom of the pot.

No there the pot does not come with an infuser, but it is a beautiful teapot. I ordered an infuser on amazon.com and it was quite reasonably priced, stainless steal, and fit perfectly. When looking for an infuser I would advise you make certain you check the size as a larger infuser will not fit in the teapot.

The mesh of the infuser is very fine. It prevented debris of the loose tea from getting into the cup. There were still some very very fine particles that escaped that were like the texture/size of cinnamon but I do not think any infuser can prevent that.

Nope. You just kind of drink through the mesh strainer. It's not uncomfortable. I really can't recommend purchasing this thing, mine is basically useless at this point due to gasket issues and leaks. A hydroflask/klean kanteen with a sippy top and a tea infuser is going to keep your tea hot and stand the test of use.

I think so, however the cozy won't cover the base of the teapot due to the teapot's height.

The lid and infuser are separate, but the lid is designed to fit inside the infuser. Removing the infuser makes the lid loose fitting requiring a 2 hand pour

Yes. The infuser is attached to the lid. The little lever on the side raises the infuser cup to the bottom of the lid. I also found it easier to clean than the cup I use in my single dose coffee machine.

The holes at the base of the spout are appropriately small, though loose tea would probably go through them. The holes "are not pin hole" sized like you would see on an infuser. Stephanie in Virginia Beach

It works in my 2" thermos - it does only take the bottom half as infuser widens at the top

If I understand your question correctly: if the mouth of the container (diameter) is wider than the distance between the hooked side and the end of the flat handle, then I don't think the infuser would stay in place (although perhaps you could use pliers to bend the hook further so that it clutches the rim of the container?). If the other side of the container's mouth will support the flat handle side, it's fine. I hope that helps!

Technically, yes, but if pressed to the bottom the leaf/water ratio is so small that additional infusion is limited.

Good question. It snaps into place when you fold or unfold it, so you can lift it out of the mug with one handle. Each side of the handle folds separately, and it stores nicely in the plastic container if you want to make a quick cup in the morning and bring the wet leaves to work with you for a second steeping. Although it is not as big as my other infuser, it works perfectly with my 20 oz mug, and even fits the smaller opening on my 24 oz tea pot. I love it.

The whole infuser is just under six and a half inches. The slot for the tea is about three inches.
