Bodum Stainless Steel Vacuum Travel Mug with Silicone Grip

A travel mug with the best build quality I've seen. The cap is easy to clean with no crannies to accumulate nasty bits. It has a tight sipping spout allowing you to toss the full mug into the back seat. Great isolation of hot and cold. This one was worth waiting for.

I looked at many different stainless stell mugs and found this to be the best fit for me. It is a little larger than what I expected, but it doesn't bother me. I like the silicone grip for so that it doesn't slip out of my hands. It has a great seal on the lid that flips open quickly and easily to have an unobstructed spout to drink from. The lid screws on instead of just pushing on like some of the others that I looked at while shopping around. This was the most expensive mug that I looked at, but it was well worth the money. I think it's another instance of "You get what you pay for." :)

I would definitely recommend this to my friends or anyone looking for a very nice stainless steel travel mug.

The good:
This mug will keep your coffee hot for hours after pouring it.
Looks nice, fits in your hands, and is shiny.

THE BAD:
I'm on my second mug in as many weeks, since I had to return the first one. It's "leak resistant", not leak proof. Hot coffee will seep through the vent hole in the lid if tipped to one side. The rubber around the outside likes to walk off of the mug after a few washings. When I called Bodum about a possible replacement of the lid, which was leaking like it wasn't even attached, I was told that they don't deal with replacement parts or defective products, and they instructed me to deal with the place that I bought it from (Amazon). Their customer service was arrogant and overall crappy.

I will NOT buy another product from Bodum, but will definitely to continue to buy from Amazon.com. Amazon really stepped up to the plate, took care of the problem, and had a new mug on it's way to me within hours of my return...Read more
