I bought this because I have had Contigo mugs for over 10 years, and it’s the perfect size for my super-automatic espresso maker (delonghi magnifica S). I honestly have lost about 6 or more in the past 10 years, and have only thrown out 1 because I dropped it from a shelf above my head and the lid threads broke. Pros: -Perfect size to fit a “double long coffee” with some cream and sugar -locks and is leak proof -easy to clean -keeps coffee hot for a very long time -easy single hand push button drinking -Best design of all of the contigo mugs (in my opinion) -dishwasher safe lid that has an easy flap seal to clean without risk of losing parts Cons -you aren’t supposed to wash the body in the dishwasher if it’s colored. -eventually if you ignore that and put them in the dishwasher the color will flake off. Not taking any stars away for that. Overall best mugs I’ve ever had and will continue to buy more as I lose them more than they get worn out! Read more
I like this coffee cup, it hold just the right amount for me (14 ounces) Keeps my coffee hot for a few hours and doesn't make it taste horrible, and is very leak proof. I've destroyed 2 keyboards and all the papers on my desk twice in the last year with one of those ceramic ones with a press down, twist to drink lid. Coffee tastes great in them, but I needed more beverage security and heat control. The first day I used it, I brewed my coffee into my old ceramic mug and put it through the microwave for a minute, then poured it into this mug. (No, I did NOT put this metal cup in the microwave.) 20 minutes later I went to take a big sip and burned the heck out of my tongue. I was used to the rapid heat loss in a ceramic mug, so I was taken by surprise. 2 hours later, it was still too hot to drink, or maybe that was just my burned tongue protesting. And as for security, if the drink button is not depressed no liquid is coming out of it. With lid on, I held it upside down and shook it vigorously over the sink, nothing came out, not one drop. I was a bit hesitant to get a metal mug because I can't microwave this mug when my coffee goes cool, but it doesn't seem to go cool so fast in this mug so that doesn't matter. Plus it's an attractive mug. You will probably want a bottle brush/sponge to clean it. But I'm happy with it and I'd recommend it. Read more

Hands-down my favorite mug for keeping my drinks warm or chilled. I easily forget the tea or coffee I've made, but this lets me keep enjoying it when I remember hours later. I I love love love the lid design. It's easy to drink from, automatically locks so I don't ever have to worry about spills, and locks for when I put the mug in a bag. I've never had an issue with spilling since I got them. The lid is also a one-piece design that makes it easy to wash without worrying about losing pieces. The mug keeps hot drinks piping hot for a couple of hours, but quite a bit above room temperature for most of a day. Cold drinks with an ice cube or two will stay at freezing for most of the day. The main downsides to consider are: - There's no cover over the drinking hole, so some may find it unhygienic. - It does leak heat a bit, so there are other mugs that will keep drinks piping hot for longer. - It's a little bit on the heavy-side Finally, when pouring hot drinks into the cup, please remember to open the mouth piece a few times to release pressure. Otherwise, the mug seals well enough that expanding air inside will give you an explosive surprise later. Read more
Update: just a warning. Probably user error ie but makes sure you do not unpress the button while drinking your beverage otherwise it'll splash on your face LOL. That wasn't fun especially as I wear glasses. I bought this item because I have the old Keurig coffeemaker - K15. Taller cups cannot fit on it and it was a pain making coffee on a cup, then pouring it on my travel mug when I go to work. Now problem solved thanks to Contigo! What I liked 1) Price - $15 is fair 2) Sturdy -> Didn't feel flimsy in my hand 3) Shape -> It fits my Honda CRV cup holder! 4) Leakproof -> I turned it upside down and no leaks! 5) Feature -> Love that it has a lock 6) Easy to clean -> I don't have remove all these little parts which is great for cleaning What I didn't like: 1) Opening spout-> Minor issue to me, just that arthritis runs in the family. It is true that you need to press and hold the button down to drink. I hope that I still have my strength/won't get arthritis anytime soon otherwise holding the the button would suck 2) Colors -> Since I just recently got this the black color hasn't faded. But previous reviewers says this chips over time. Technically I prefer stainless steel so I wish they had a 10 oz stainless steel option In conclusion I docked one star because of the no stainless steel color option and holding the button down to drink issue. Other than that it serves my purpose of fitting my old style Keurig machine. Read more

The very best travel mug available! Never leaks a single drop! Just remember if you're using it for coffee, point it away from you the first time you press the button as these hold pressure in addition to heat! Very close to Yeti insulation but this Contigo doesn't leak and you can't forget to close it! Read more
This is a really convenient travel mug. It's the perfect size to fit under most Keurig machines; unfortunately it's discontinued so the supply that's currently available here is probably all that exists. The replacement model is 12 oz and a little bit taller. Read more
