I use this while camping. I use this on a long work day of driving. I use this with coffe grounds, and my tea was also delicious in here. First things first, this is perfect for on the go hot drinks. It doesn't stay boiling hot for hours, which I like, because if I use the French press feature, the water I use to make my coffee has to be boiling. My issue with other mugs is they do their job too well. I typically can't enjoy my coffee right after prepping it. With this, I dont have to leave the lid off for a half an hour before it becomes drinkable. That saves me from potential spills. Now you might be thinking, so this insulation is junk. No, you should still be cautious and test the drinks out. It keeps things warm, trust me. The pieces pf the French press are easy to use. The filter twists off the depresser, for easy cleaning. The mug is small and the stainless steel inside is easy to clean. My only hiccup is the lid, with two convoluted, spinning pieces. They could have done less with this lid. Its not hard to use the lid, but its also not the most comfortable. I dont know how to describe it. It is cute overall, but people would have still loved the product if it was a simpler lid design. The handle also seems weak, but that's because it is dainty. I'm used to thick plastic handles, but this is a thin metal one. It feels strong. I hope it will hold up to the test of time, especially at the hinges. Read more

This Stanley coffee press works great add coffee hot water , stir wait about 5 minutes and press makes a good cup of joe. This unit is well built holds coffee hot for hrs good lid also works great with ice cold water a great buy works with tea also. This arrived rather quickly from one day to the other. Ok I learned do not add coffee and creamer together then add water stir and press it's almost impossible to press spilled a lot of coffee doing this seems like the screen is too fine to handle the creamer so just coffee and water press then add creamer and sweetener other than that works great. Stanley has not let me down with any of there products price is reasonable highly recommend this product. This will good with my motorcycle camping gear and I'll get another one for the home.

I've had this mug for 2 weeks now. Use it almost everyday. I make coffee and tea in it. Here's some things I found out. 1. 1st time I used it, I warmed the mug and while steeping my coffee, I put the lid on top keep the heat in. It kept my drink so hot I couldn't drink it for 3 hrs. 2. This is what I do now. I don't warm the mug. I put in my scoop of coffee or tea. With tea leaves I add my sugar then pour over hot water to three bottom of the Stanley wording on the outside of mug. After sleeping, I slower lower the plunger, add my liquid creamer to the lip before the threads for lid. Put on lid and the movement from going from counter to bag to vehicle to work, the sugar, creamer and tea or coffee is perfectly shook up. This is very easy to clean. And doesn't leak. And for my next trip, no bad hotel coffee. Read more

When traveling for weeks and living out of hotels, kuregs aren’t always enough. Along with a small hand grinder, I will grind some whole beans and make about 2 cups of coffee in this french press. It keeps the coffee hot until you are ready for it. It is a good travel size, but with the grounds, it doesn’t always make as much coffee as I’d like. The french press is great, it doesn’t let the grinds escape except for the super-fine silt. It is easy to use, the lid closes very secure. The only other issue is that you have to be careful and twist the press clockwise one the way in and out to both prevent splashing and the bottom of the screen from falling out. Read more
Keeps for a long time the cold/heat is 100$ leak proof. And the coffee maker is very convenient. A few tips: wash very well to avoid weird taste the first times, don't push the filter when is too hot, be very careful or it can damage the filter eventually. Read more
Love this press, I specifically use it for loose leaf tea at work. It holds temperature really well. Easy to take apart and clean. The lid stays open & out of the way while drinking. Great material, finish and size/volume. Highly recommend. Read more
