Libre Glass ‘n Poly style:
Q. Will the Libre Glass ‘n Poly break?
A.This Libre is designed to be much more durable than the Glass ‘n Glass, with customers reporting drops on kitchen floors and the street without breakage. Like any travel mug however, there is always a possibility for breaking, and reasonable care should therefore be applied when using your Libre Glass ‘n Poly.
Q. What do I do if I have a tea glass that leaks?
A. Check to ensure that rubber seals are in place in both the filter connector and the lid. Also ensure there are no tea leaves on the threads where the pieces twist together, and that these surfaces are dry, as tea bits and water bubbles can compromise the seal.
If your tea glass is still challenged please contact us at info@libretea.com and describe where the leakage is coming from. We will ensure that it is fixed or replaced, so that you can continue enjoying tea moments.
Q. Will the lid fit onto the tea glass?
A. Yes the lid will fit directly into the tea glass if you choose to omit the filter connector after steeping, or choose to use it for any of your favourite non-tea beverages.
