BODUM Travel Mug with Flip Top Lid

Love these mugs . I have 3. Keeps your hot drinks hot a long time. Dishwasher safe- I have already bought again ( for someone else)

Great travel mug. Great for football parents. Keeps drinking piping hot for a good few hours. Can create a little vacuum making the lid difficult to get off but not too much of an issue. And tea can stain it, just need a little bicarbonate of soda and hot water and comes up bright!

Used this since 2023 3-5 days a week. Only time it leaks is when you over fill. Keep the liquid about 1cm below the internal cap thread. Keeps a cuppa tea hot for 2-3 hours in my experience. Goes in my backpack on 4 mile ride home with half a cup and doesn't leak.

Ordered off white got black. Obviously colour blind. Other than that excellent quality, was a replacement for one which had had 3 years but lid broke. Would recommend

Had one of these before and liked it but it vanished, allways keep Tea or Coffee hot for hours and no nasty plastic taste, I can safely put it in a bag on my back withing the risk of it spilling.

As a product that fulfils its title, it ticks all the boxes (or stars). Its very well made and, importantly, well designed. It has a look of quality and feel of durability around it. However, in use there are things to watch for that are not necessarily the fault of the product, more of its use and could be applied to other reusable mugs. Firstly, its stainless steel. The rubber grip around it provides an secure way of holding it, even with gloves but if you carry this externally (Ie in a pouch on the side of the bag) the whole lot eventually reduces down in temperature to meet the ambient. What this means in winter when your barista adds the coffee it can be going into a vessel that's as cold as a cup straight from the fridge, so ask them to give it a hot water rinse before adding the coffee. Once up to temperature its excellent at retaining the heat and keeps the contents hot enough for your walk to the office or for slow drinking. Talking of the grip, the diameter overall might not suit small hands so that's the only knock of a star of the ease of holding. The design means its leak proof, *if* you fasten it correctly. When the lid is screwed on it can appear ok, drink ok but with a gap a bit bigger than that required to put your thumbnail in it can leak. Its not a fault of the mug or design but in use the barista putting the lid on may not be familiar so ensure its properly screwed on. When you look at the size and capacity it seems ok, about a normal cup size. Its 355ml capacity is sort of inline with a 'tall' coffee. In use I've found that what you get from the barista is around 300ml. In places where they're not too diligent about how the milk is steamed or the quantity of foam to liquid, the resulting "Slopochino" means that what you get is very little liquid. IMHO, the foam in this mug adds no value so asking for 'no foam' gives better experience and value for money. I've also been charged for a 'medium' size drink (Ie one around 450ml) because the mug looks a lot larger than its true capacity. If it was plastic, ala the cheap Starbucks reusables, etc then its probably more closer but the raised bottom in this mug, while helping for the general heat retention, subtracts from the volume. So, make sure you ask for 'small/tall' and correct/challenge if they want to charge for medium. So, usability aside, its rather nice and would purchase again.

Have had these mugs previously and found them great. Wanted a new one but the company look like they have cheaped out on the product. Nowhere near the quality of ones bought a few years ago, cheap feeling plastic lid that doesn't secure properly and leaks everywhere. Going straight back for a refund and I'll try a different brand of travel mug.

Keeps drinks hot for hours!
