Know before you buy

The tea ball measures 7 inches in length, which is designed to reach the bottom of most standard mugs and cups. However, it may be too short for very deep travel tumblers or tall thermal carafes.
Yes, the OXO Good Grips Tea Ball is top-rack dishwasher safe. The spinning design also makes it easy to rinse out by hand if you prefer to clean it immediately after use.
The stainless steel mesh is designed to hold standard loose leaf teas effectively. If you are using very fine tea dust or rooibos, you may experience a small amount of sediment in your cup, as is common with most mesh infusers.
Yes, all materials used in the construction of this tea ball are BPA-free, ensuring your tea remains free from unwanted chemicals during the steeping process.
