Amazon.com Review

This stainless steel thermal mug is the commuter's best friend. Its powerful vacuum seal keeps beverages hot for up to an hour--enough time to last through the worst traffic jam. The modern-looking tapered silhouette is designed to fit in most vehicle cup holders, while a sleek back santoprene band lends a sure, safe grip, even one-handed. Dishwasher-safe, the mug is also great for keeping drinks cold. It stands 8-1/5 inches high and holds 16 fluid ounces. --Mary Park

2.0 out of 5 stars It's a "dribbler"...., November 18, 2005

This review is from: Bodum 16-Ounce Stainless-Steel Vacuum Travel Mug with Grip (Kitchen)

I liked the mug's look, feel, & size. Then I took a drink of java from this mug... I never could get a lip lock on this mug. The rim is very thin & very wide. It would always spill a couple of drops on my shirt. Nissan mugs have what I call a "lip ledge" that prevents the "dribble" effect to which the Bodum is prone. Nissan mugs also have a much smaller diameter rim which also makes drinking from them less hazardous to my white shirts.

I purchased two Bodum travel mugs. One of the lids leaks from the bottom. No visible difference between the two, however the lid leaks when used on either of the mugs. Be sure to dress in the color of your beverage!

This review is from: Bodum 16-Ounce Stainless-Steel Vacuum Travel Mug with Grip (Kitchen)

Only complaints I have with this mug are that the lid can be hard to remove, they should have tailored the lid to fascilitate an easier grip.

The second and last complaint I have involves the rubber grip handle, it tended to slide enough on the surface of the mug to be loose fitting and trap liquid between itself and the mug, when you inverted the mug to take a sip, it would drip on you because of that. I fixed this by placing a bead of super glue along the top edge which made sure the grip remains seated where it was meant to be.
