I have had many kinds of 12v mugs. Most have been poor quality and inexpensive. I decided to buy what looked like a new design and was 3-4 times more expensive than any I had previously purchased. I WAS WRONG!!! The design was new but the effectiveness of the product was sadly lacking. To the touch it felt warm on the inside. but it did not have the capability of keeping even very warm coffee warm. I had tried it for even 2 hours and the contents going in warm came out practically cold. I bought two cups--so it was not just one defective cup. I returned them to Amazon! :(

Heating is very weak, but it does heat (sort of). Mine had a leak in the bottom when I received it, which I repaired, assuming it was a fluke and not just poorly made. I am not terribly impressed with this mug, but it does keep hot drinks from getting completely cold. It doesn't do much more than that.

I saw this RoadPro mug in a Pilot Truck Stop so figured if truckers buy it it must work. Wrong. My coffee woluld stay warmer sitting in the sun. USB 5v doesn't do a thing. The 12v from the car not much better. I had a $6 12v mug from Walmart that kept the coffee hot but it only lasted 6 months and was only a christms item. I'll wait.

Overall the cup functions well as a cup. Don't expect much beyond that. Heating element draws too much power causing USB ports on PC's to report a 'over current' situation on a USB port and then deactivates that port. Also blows fuses in the car. You get what you pay for.

This 12 volt travel mug works great. I can enjoy my coffee for hours as I drive. I'm happy and the mug was worth the money.

My husband purchased this mug because it is heated AND it is Stainless Steel. Unfortunately the "O" ring seal on the lid is not attached well and came off when he removed the lid from the cup. The cup is going back. He was willing to test the degree to which to mug would heat his coffee but he never actually used the product.

My son-in-law works driving a wrecker. He is in the cold and it is always nice to have a hot cup of coffee waiting in the truck!

When ordering, watch which size the bottom is to fit your cup holder.

It doesn't help if the cup won't stay in place.

Two things were wrong : First, I had expected to be able to set the desired temperature. No such luck.

Second, the lid is quite loose, it comes off easily. The seal is flimsy. Not good.

Ordered this for a B-Day gift and worked for about 1 month and then it stopped working. And when it did work it didn't even keep the coffee warm like warm should be. This was one of the worst gifts I ever given and will never buy anything like this again. :(

I have been used this travel mug since the day I received it. The problem is that it won't maintain liquids warm enough.

I want to know if this item has any warranty?
