Wee little blue boy
"I adore this little pot, and find having such a small wee pot wonderfully practical for one person sessions. It is ridiculously cute and even smaller than expected, that's a good thing. My only gripe might be that it has no proper filter so it can get clogged, but that doesn't happen with most tea types, quite literally made for rolled oolong though. The heat retention is good and I cannot state how much I adore it, the shape is so very elegant, and the veins are full of character, all in all a good pot"

Perfect for on the go
"Obviously, not the most perfect pour or lid fit, and I wish it had a built-in filter, but this pot is absolutely perfect for single-person sessions on the go. I fill up a bottle with hot water and only have to carry a towel, this pot, and a cup (which I keep in a small wooden chest), and put it in my backpack and can bring it to class or anywhere I go."

Great for one-person sessions.
"Really really cute and pretty teapot. Gets some nice patina when used due to the glaze. The tea from this pot fits perfectly in my 50ml cup. Also use it as a tea pet sometimes. Thinking about getting some of the other shapes as well since I love this one so much."

I got the whole set,
"I got the whole set, every shape, of these tiny teapots. They're the most novel, not to mention adorable, part of my teapot collection. I sometimes use them if I don't want to over drink tea. I would steap for only 15 seconds on average for most teas since these pots are so small."

nice little teapot

Handy little pot
"Great for testing teas that need very hot water; previously I'd been using a 65ml gaiwan (also from this website) to brew all new teas, and it didn't do all that well with hei cha or sheng. This pot fixes that, and is quite nice-looking as well. I love this kind of crackle glaze, especially as it gains depth and interest from repeated use, and I look forward to watching the cracks in this pot's glaze fill in. The spout does clog a bit, and due to its shape, it isn't conducive to creating a home-made mesh filter. I've been using a toothpick to clear it between steeps."

clogs easily
"I love this little pot, but its spout gets clogged very easily! I know it is small and therefore having a strainer would be difficult, but I find it hard to brew with this. Maybe its really just more of tea pet? Regardless, It can be great for soloing brewing and hard-brewing dark teas."

For the price it's really a no-brainer
"Honestly I didn't think I'd use this pot that much, I just saw it as a cheap and fun thing to have. Turns out, I've been using it almost daily, it's the perfect size for a quick and simple pot to cup gong fu session. The lid is not very tight and I've already dropped it on the floor once, so I'll probably add a small lanyard to it. Pours pretty well too. It has its flaws, but for the price I really do think it's a valuable and fun addition to any teaware collection."

Little Engine that Could
"Perfect for single person puerh sessions; fills a 70 ML cup comfortably up to the brim. I have both the 60 ML gaiwan and this teapot, and for ripe puerh I will always spring for this. It's very eloquent in the way that you don't need a cha hai/filter, you can just pour directly into your cup and the spout mostly keeps leaves in. It can get clogged for certain types of tea, and for that it's good to have something like a cake tester around to unclog it. Overall very satisfied, especially for the price."
