THERMOS Stainless King Vacuum-Insulated Travel Mug, 16 Ounce, Matte Stainless Steel

I received and used this Thermos cup today. First impressions are that it is definitely 5-star quality. I chose it for the the graceful design and the size. I’ve had Yeti, but they are often too bulky for my taste. I also liked the color selections and chose the midnight blue. It’s a really nice rich color. The finish has a deep hue and a high quality feel.At 14 oz, this is a perfect size for commuting or traveling. I had some concern about how long this one would keep coffee hot because I’m a sipper and a cup can last me for three hours or more. I rarely finish a cup that is actually warm unless it is left on a warmer.I prefer a handle when and the open end of the handle makes it eqsy to hang the cup on something if my hands are full The cap is designed really well, and when closed the cup can’t leak even when the coffee is hot. It appears that hot coffee will exert extra pressure on the inside causing the inner seal ro press more tightly. That’s a nice feature. The cap opens with a lever that makes it easy to open or close the lid withjout using two hands. Also you can drink coffee from either side of the mug, i.e., left or right handed. Actually, I was wondering if the lever would bump against my nose, but it is designed to be off to the side when open. With the lid is in the open, it let’s a reasonable amount of coffee through, but with any care at all, you won’t be likely to burn yourself because it's easy to regulate the amount coming into the “sipping tray” part of the lid.So the first test: I made coffee at 1 PM and an hour later, the coffee was still remarkably hot. Rather than test the long-term holding power, I decided to leave the lid open to see how quickly tmy coffee would cool. What a surprise: I finished the coffee at 6 pm and it was still a very pleasant drinking temperature. Five hours is better than my Ember cup by far! Finally, when I came home s disassembled the lid to wash it and it was very easy and intuitive.Honestly, for the money, I’d say it is the best hot cup I've purchased, and I’ve gone through quite a few. Definitely would recommend it.

There is not anything "cheaply" made about this item. The drinking spout is the best I have ever had ... no dripping or scalding coffee coming at you in a torrent. Some engineer really took the time to come up with an ingeniously made lid. Also, it would seem to fit any cup holder.Would definitely recommend getting the Thermos that has the handle.So glad I bought this one ... threw my other one away.This is the Cadillac of insulated mugs!!

This travel mug keeps my coffee hot for hours, which is awesome for long drives. It fits perfectly in my car’s cup holder and doesn’t wobble around. The handle makes it super easy to grab without spilling anything. The lid seals well and doesn’t leak, even when the mug tips a bit. Solid build quality and easy to clean. It’s become part of my daily routine without any fuss.

Works great, I usually take about 2 hours to drink my coffee while working and it stays hot the whole time. Easy to clean and no leaks. Don't pay attention to the bad reviews.

Great cup for coffee or other hot beverage. Keeps hot for several hours. Down side is the cleaning. Once you take the seal off it is nearly impossible to get it back on. Several components to the lid that must be cleaned especially if you use it for anything but clear liquids. I have three, but once they are washed I need to set down with the lids and put them back together again because it takes awhile to get the seals on properly.

Best travel mug I've ever had. Keeps coffee hot for hours. In fact, when filling it for use all day I let it cool down a bit before putting the lid on on I don't burn my lips or tongue later!I filled it up for a long road trip and sipped it all day long, after 9 hours on the road, with the mug sitting in front of a vent blowing cooler air on it, it was still acceptably warm to drink at the end!Haven't used it for cold, but it should work well. The mug fits in most cup holders well, although the handle sticks down pretty far, I have to rotate it to clear the side in a few.The lid goes on securely and will not leak. Read a complaint that the opening wasn't oriented properly when putting the lid on... HOWEVER, I found that when screwing the lid on, you have it set to open as it seals so well you'll be fighting it. Cleans up easily and is the best stainless steel thermos I've used... actually, have a Thermos brand bottle that didn't keep my coffee as hot as this mug!The only way this could be better is if the handle had a closed loop and didn't extend down as far. Then it would fit any cupholder and one could hook the handle to a carabiner or case for easy carrying, especially since it will NOT leak when closed if the lid is properly tightened.

I bought another one because my kids keep stealing mine and my wife's. The things are completely indestructible. I left one on the roof of my car once and it fell off and landed on my concrete driveway. There were a couple of little scratches, but it was still perfectly usable. And they keep stuff hot forever. I've had coffee stay hot for about 12 hours. The lid is completely drip proof when closed. I even like the open bottomed handle. If your hands are full going from your car to your front door, you can hook it on a belt or a pocket (and that's where the drip proof lid comes in handy).

This is by far the best hot/cold mug I have ever used. Size and layout are top notch. Keeps it HOT and Keeps it COLD.I bought the Matte Steel version so it will stay chip free. Give it a try it really work great!
