Stainless Steel Tea Bag Bin #16155

by Z List

From 2 of the stars of Big Brother 2 comes the product everyone's been talking about! The Tea Bag Bin is a brand new concept invented by those two blokes from Big Brother 2, Dean and Stuart.
Having had huge coverage both in the press and on T.V, and being featured on Radio 1’s Chris Moyles Show, This Morning, Steve Wright’s Radio 2 show to name but a few, this is sure to be a huge hit in kitchens worldwide.
Press Review: Big Brother housemates Dean and Stuart are set to make their fortune, not through a TV project, but through an amazingly simple idea they've developed called the Tea Bag Bin. As simple as its name, the Tea Bag Bin is a mini bin you keep next to the kettle to avoid dripping tea all over your kitchen surfaces and floors. Tea addict Dean, who came up with the idea, approached ex housemate Stuart Hosking whose proven business experience was essential in moving the project further.
Dean explains: 'I just asked Stuart to run through the process of making a cuppa, right through from finding a cup, boiling the water, giving it a stir and then, when he got to the bit where he removes the tea bag, he said '…and then I plonk it into the kitchen sink.' Stop right there, I said, why don't you use a tea bag bin instead?'
Since that conversation in April 2002, the duo have been busy selling the concept to the retail business and the promotions and advertising industry because of the Tea Bag Bin's obvious branding opportunities. While other kitchen appliances are shut away in cupboards, the Tea Bag Bin remains permanently on display on the kitchen worktop.
Typhoo likened it to the invention of the mobile phone, saying, "Once you've used one, you'll wonder how you ever survived without one." With a potential 30 million kitchens in the UK alone, the Tea Bag Bin is set to become the latest kitchen essential.
We all have our favourite way of dumping our used tea bags, whether it's into a cup by the kettle, piled up in the sink or splashed across the kitchen floor. Think about it next time you make a cup of tea: What do you do with yours?

I bought the plastic one for me. I have bought 2 of these nice new ones. I now use my old one as a table tidy and have this new one is on my draining board and looks fantastic and the other one in my new bathroom which goes with crome taps etc! I am very pleased with these new ones.

I originally bought the stainless steel teabag bin - it's brilliant very pratical and very stylish. Everyone who sees it in the kitchen wonders what it actually is. I have since bought one for my mother in law, who thinks it's wonderful and my sister in law is having one for her birthday as she keeps asking where to get one from. Even my painter and decorator wants one having seen it whilst on his tea break! Fab, fab, fab!

Great product - won lots of brownie points by getting them as novelty extras for my Mother in Law and Wife last Christmas... Only thing is they don't like getting them dirty, so line them with sandwich bags..
Whoever invented these now need to 'invent' the tea-bag-bin-bag too :)
