Does this Timolino not have the compartment for extra tea? I've just got mine and I've looked all over it trying to find where it would be.

I don't think so, I've had mine for about a year. I can't unscrew the bottom and that'd be the only place.

Not sure what you mean by compartment. It has a removable mesh screen so you can keep the leaves right in the tumbler. The screen is fine enough to strain teas like rooibos. To answer your question, there isn't a separate place to keep the tea to say...keep it from over brewing. Hope this helps.

I haven't had that experience probably because I leave my tea bag in the ug a long time.......however the kettle is a big disappointment. I don't like the black interior mat all and having to hold the "gizmo" to pour out the water is very painful. I will go to the stores to find one that suits me and where I can open it up and see inside.

Mine did come with a spare lid!I realize I actually purchased this one: Bodum Double-Wall Stainless Steel Travel Coffee and Tea Press with Bonus Lid, 0.45L, 16oz, Black (only $29 then) which specifies a bonus lid.

It does have places for the little extra's. I did return the one I purchased as my daughter in law bought another and it had room for more things. This book was a bit smaller than we were looking for but it is a really nice book.

From what I have read, it is a collection of several types of tea, all black teas, and usually any English black tea comes from India. My question is where did you get this? I have been looking for it myself. I have used it for a few years, but now I can't find it, other than Davidson's English Breakfast bulk tea which costs over $100 and is in the garden center.

I have the same problem with the one I bought. It ended up in a drawer. :-(

No. There is a basket to hold the tea leaves. It is shown to the right of the tea pot in the picture.

You can put loose tea in it and steep. It's a press so it will keep the tea leaves in when you press and pour your tea. Love mine!

I did not but I don't see where it would be a problem. The top screws on so tea bags will fit.

I just got mine and there was no travel cup included. I have searched in vain for a place to submit this error, but can't find one. I will not go to the trouble of returning it just for the travel mug, but I am a bit disappointed that I can't submit a request for the missing item.

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.

Do you brew the tea into a carafe filled with ice? If not the advantage would be that by the time the tea is done brewing its already chilled and ready to drink. Also, you can store the leftover tea in the container in the fridge. I suppose you could do that with the coffee carafe too, but I guess that means no coffee until that's done. :) Long story short: if that system is working for you I guess you don't "need" this brewer, BUT I am still loving mine for its convenience and simplicity.

Check the right side of the case just past the front cover. It's just about in line with the top accessory slot.My daughter had to find it for me so you are not alone. It's hidden pretty well.

Sorry Cheri, I just open the tea bags and take what I need for the particular container I am using. I use it as though it is loose tea.

I finally found one at DavidsTea in the store which is a very good quality and when closed, can be shaken, because the top is screwed on. It's in the picture here in the back: http://www.davidstea.com/summer-tea-club but for some reason I don't see it for sale on-line. You're right, it shouldn't be so hard to find a good pitcher, but maybe there's a business opportunity here!

There was only the teapot in mine too. no cups. I'm enjoying my teapot though.

I bought one for my Mom, slightly different. They actually opened up a store locally and they said sometimes they get them in broken and will sell the lids then, but there aren't replacements to buy. If it broke during use, I would contact Teavana, they may replace it for you as I've had mine over 2 years now and it gets used every day and I've not had any problems with it.
