I had to go searching when our last Tea Machine died.  We drink ALOT of herbal teas and having a product that would do well with loose leaf teas was a must.  After a bit of research, I decided on this HomeCraft Tea Brewing System, and I couldn’t be happier with our purchase!  It makes fantastic tea, quite rapidly, and has excellent flavor so I know we are getting all the great nutrients out of our herbs.  It is mess free, and cleans up well. . . Highly recommend this product!
