Buy this mug. I'm really hopeful"him: "I have just given up trying to find a good travel mug"me: "ahh, a paper cuper.
In fact, as far as acquiring a specific product to meet my standards this has been a quest. Finding a good travel mug is difficult.
I haven't had the best luck so far"him: "right."me: "Word on the street, is that this little guy is legit. I tried quite a few until I came across this guy.
As I purchased this item I explained to the cashier how finding a good travel mug is one of life's difficulties:me: "I'm hoping this one works out this time"him: "huh"me: "Finding a good travel mug is actually one of the most difficult things in life. sorry to hear"Don't be a paper cuper, don't give up like the guy who rang me up at sur la table.
You will be happy with it.Benefits:-Reasonably priced-Lexan is strong and is not hot when filled with cofee-Insulator keeps coffee warm-NO LEAKING/DRIPPING-Click open is nice because its easy to use and works really well-Easy to cleanNegatives:-None, this is the holy grail of travel mugs
Colors are available and the cost is highly competitive. Additionally, one of the features I like the most is that it has a center, "push-button" to open the seal.
The only reason I have to replace my current Oxo mug is that my wife broke the lid using it as a ball. I like the Oxo mug.
The Oxo mug is comfortable to hold and doesn't drip - it has extensive internal sealing. and amazingly enough.
it didn't bounce. This button is operable with one hand - good for driving (it also has a red visual indicator on it).
It keeps drinks hot very well.
This mug does not keep liquids hot for very long. I think it would be better if it had a handle.
Ugh. I've had this mug for 6 months. First, you cannot take the top apart to clean it. Crud and gunk (looked like barnacles, no kidding) was all up inside of the top. Don't buy this thing. After about 3 months, the rubber gaskets started falling out (I have only hand-washed this mug).
so here I am. I got it for a long bus commute to work in DC. Yeah. Annoying, but I could tuck them back in; however, eventually, it became a routine.Around the 6 month mark, the button on the top started sticking in, so it wouldn't close without working at it, trying to get my fingernail under it to pull it out, and eventually stopped closing at all. I would have to take the top off, and push the plunger back up into it to get it to close.Tonight after soaking the top in vinegar overnight, I took all the gaskets out and held it up to the light so I could see how dirty it was inside. looking for another mug.
Spend a little more money and get something that comes apart.
The best "travel cup" so far, but not perfect.virtually spill-proof, but not te easiest to clean. A cleaning "trick", rinse the "inside" of the cap mechanism out immediately after using it.
