1) I didn't realize how tall it would be. It does not fit beneath a standard Keurig 2.0 K200 (without the drip pan). You have to raise the machine onto a higher platform to use it with this mug. This is something I can live with though.
2) The lid opening mechanism consistently gets stuck so that I have to try and rip the lid off very frequently to get it open. I don't know if there's something missing in the hinge, but it looks poorly/cheaply made. It is really frustrating (especially when you're dying for caffeine) to always need two hands and a good deal of effort to pry open the lid...
The aesthetics are great! That is why I bought it originally. However, it's not as functionally sound as I had hoped.
All factors combined, ease of cleaning, better quality plastics, all pieces come apart for cleaning, I bit the bullet and purchased it...
Fast forward six months, and IMPRESSED (capitalized) is an understatement.
Not only is the mug so easy to clean (I don't have any of the coffee smell lingering in the mug when I take the whole thing apart and use it to drink cold water) it kept hot coffee hot for a good 5-6 hours. I don't mean warm, I mean HOT. I make my French press coffee at 7AM every weekday and my coffee kept (burning) hot until I finished it the last drop by 11AM. Some days, I didn't get to finish my coffee by 11AM and when I take my sips of coffee that I made at 7AM, in the middle of the afternoon, it was still hot (not burning hot, but hot enough to enjoy). My coffee in the mug also tasted fresh, and good, almost as good as when I made it in the morning.
I am so happy I found the 16oz one, I purchased another 20oz one and plan to use that at the office. I'm keeping my 16oz at home for my weekend coffee enjoyment. If there's one emotion that I can sum up for this mug, it is "Love" I'm in love with this mug from Zojirushi and glad that other reviewers pointed me to it. If you're considering to purchase it; don't hesitate, you won't regret it.
I have some gripes over my time using it.
The mouthpiece for drinking could be better, it seems to me far better suited for pouring. I keep a mug at my desk at work for exactly this purpose. Drinking directly out of it demands lifting the bottle up awkwardly high, and it is then hard to gauge flow. Not necessarily something you want with hot liquids. Many brands struggle, but Zojirushi seems to handle it slightly better than most.
It will occasionally leak around the lip, from the locking mechanism, lid base, or flip-cap. When this does happen it’s usually minor.
The major drawback is cleaning. Frequent coffee or tea drinking will leave a fine patina on the inside of the bottle. When built up that dishwasher alone won't tackle it, it is incredibly difficult to wipe it from the inside of the bottle. Its long narrow shape becomes a product flaw. Similarly, some of the gaskets and fittings are hard to clean and can hold moisture from washing.
Through all of this the Zojirushi holds its own purely off of its ability to keep temperature. There’s certainly things that could be fixed, but I still use mine every day. And I continue to recommend it.
Pros:
- Maintains heat/temperature for long time
- Leakproof/strong suction(?) - after a month I've stopped doing the leak test because I trust it
- Easy to take apart to clean pieces & clicks together well (dish soap is fine)
- Great insulation -- no matter how hot the inside contents are, the outside will maintain its temperature (won't get hot). I forgot I poured hot coffee in and I put it in my lunchbag where there was an ice pack. When I drank from it, the outside was cold but inside still hot (felt weird though)
Con: (or tip because I still see this as a 5 star product) If you pour hot/boiling water in, I'd advise to keep the top off for a few minutes for heat to leave. The first time I used it, I poured boiling water, made Maxim instant coffee, and immediately closed it and went to work. When I opened it ~30 minutes later, steam came out and when I drank it, I almost burnt my tongue. I generally love scalding hot coffee but it was like I drank it straight from the electric kettle. Now when I make coffee I have to leave the lid off for like 10 minutes. Despite this con, I would still buy this for a friend because it's an easy fix.
I would note that darker liquids such as earl grey tea and coffee can be hard to clean from the lid parts if you forget to wash it the same day. The lid parts are somewhat tedious to clean because there's 2 rubber parts, hard to reach areas and the hole where the liquid goes through is very small to clean adequately. Nonetheless, I would still recommend it because it serves its purpose formidably, which is heat/cold retention.
As for drinking from it while driving, I have no problem seeing the road. I also find the lid tips back far enough to be out of the way. Mine is the 12oz so it isn't necessary to tip it way up. Don't know if it's more difficult with a 16oz but not worried about it and planning to order one.
Easy to clean!
I work at the airport and I accidentally forgot my thermos at the parking lot for a well over 8 hour shift. It was the winter time during the holiday which becomes more hectic for us airport employees. When I got into my vehicle, I was almost certain my coffee was going to be cold , no, actually I was POSITIVE it was going to be cold.... Boy was I wrong. I was absolutely shocked when I saw steam coming out from the thermos! It was still well over warm phase, wasn't hot, nor was it warm... it was just perfect .
I absolutely love this brand. Great for work, traveling , you name it ! Definitely worth it !
I fill the mug before I leave for work...in the car at 6:45am. I sip the coffee until it is gone, usually around 10am...and it is still piping hot with the last sip. unless you plan to pour the coffee into a cup to drink it, please know that you will not be able to drink the coffee fast, as it stays too hot in the mug. This is the absolute best part of this mug for me.
For advanced users, fill the mug with hot water prior to filling it with coffee...this keeps it almost scalding hot for hours.
Now...the commitment...
Cleaning it...
While this mug contains several pieces in the lid that come apart for cleaning, I have gotten the routine down.
The night before, I rinse the mug, put a small amount of soap in the mug along with some warm or hot water, screw the cap on, and shake it vigorously. I then pour that into a container, and disassemble the lid, and throw those pieces into the soapy water, to soak overnight. Make sure you rinse well in the morning...nothing ruins a morning coffee like soapy aftertaste.
I have probably used vinegar on the mug maybe once or twice in 5.5 years...letting it sit over night then scrubbing it with a bottle brush.
This mug requires a bit of work, but for a black coffee drinker, it suits my needs and saves me about $12 a week in not buying take out coffee...so...that is about $2500 saved so far...
I shopped around online for mugs for my husband and I for a while, and when I read the reviews about this mug, I was skeptical "how could you put a mug of hot liquid in a refrigerator overnight, to find it still very hot the next morning?" "Impossible!", I thought. But I was wrong!
I used it as soon as it came in the mail, I couldn't wait. I filled it with piping hot tea and took it to a 3 hour meeting with me. I left the top OPEN to allow steam and heat to escape, so that it would be drinkable. Even after my 3 hour meeting was over, it was still too hot to drink. "How is this possible?" I asked myself.
Now when I put piping hot liquid in it, I add two cubes of ice so that it is immediately drinkable, and it stays the same temperature for HOURS!!!
This mug is also durable...you can throw it around, flip it upside down, it won't leak, ding or anything. I also love the color (Champagne is what I ordered), it's so sophisticated looking.
If I were rich I would buy one of these for everybody for Christmas this year! I'm so glad I didn't buy another well known brand of mug, this mug is absolutely perfect in my book. I wouldn't change anything about it.
Second test. I put ice water in it before work, took it to work, it sat in my car with the outside temperature around 88 degrees. That night when I got out the water was still ice cold. But wait....there's more..... I got home and left it on the counter overnight. When I went to empty it out the next morning there WAS STILL ICE IN IT!!!
