Zojirushi Stainless Steel Travel Mug, 16 oz, Lime Green

This is the best water bottle I’ve ever used. I love the fact that I can put ice in from the refrigerator dispenser without having it fall all over the place; nearly 3” is the perfect size opening for doing this and almost every other water bottle has a tiny opening which makes ice fall on the floor when you try to fill it from a refrigerator dispenser. The outside of the bottle stays warm to the touch while the inside temperature of the water bottle remains ice cold when you put ice in it. It’s pretty amazing how it works. I fill it about halfway full of ice and add cold water to the fill line, screw the cover back on and head to work around 7:30 am. This water bottle stays in my car until I get home from work usually around 5:30 pm. I’ll open it several times during the drive to take sips, but it remains seated in the cupholder where it fits well in the vehicle. My vehicle has been parked in a parking lot with all windows rolled up in the scorching heat the last few weeks with outside temperatures approaching 90 degrees. I imagine the inside temperature of the vehicle is much hotter. When I get back out to my car after work the bottle is warm to the touch on the outside, but when I take a sip of water it is still just as cold as it was the morning I poured it and the ice is still in there, with very little melting. I have not put warm liquids in this bottle yet so I’m not sure how well it keeps liquids warm. The lock and seal on this bottle are both well engineered. I have never had any leaking or accidental top opening and would feel confident in throwing this bottle in a bag knowing it won’t leak. The lid and seal can be removed to hand wash, but I wouldn’t put it in the dishwasher if you want the seal to stay in good condition. This bottle is my go to bottle now at home and at the office, but it is a must have if you travel. Definitely worth the money you pay and based upon my experience with other similar products this blows the Yeti Rambler out of the water in terms of ice/cold water retention. Fantastic product.

I didn't see any reviews so I thought I would add one. If you're interested in this model the SM-YAE48, I'm guessing you've had good experience with one of the previous models. I have use the older model SM-KHE48 (slicksteel version) for about 3 years and have loved it. The last update of this mug added a teflon coating so I didn't buy it. This new one does not have any coating - just the polished "slicksteel". It's a little different design, where the lid does not come apart. It's one piece, only the rubber gasket seal on bottom and rubber stopper in the flip cap come out. The older version came apart which made it easy to clean. In spite of not being able to take apart this version, there doesn't seem to be areas that will be difficult to clean. This lid sits in the thermos, the older version screwed on top of it. The one part I don't like in this and the previous versions is that there is an indentation on the very bottom inside that seems to attract stains along the edges after awhile. Would be better if the bottom were smooth. Overall, it's wider and more stout than previous versions - it fits in the cup holder better on my vehicle. Keeps coffee hot all day, doesn't spill - lid has a pretty bullet proof lock. The lid opens all the way back (further that 180 degrees) so the stopper never hits you in the nose while drinking and you can still see while driving. Great mug - $20 better than the previous version? ...probably not, unless having your mug not rattle around in your cupholder is all that important to you. The older one's run around $30... so if this drops to maybe around $40 it would be a nice upgrade. Overall great mug though.

I was in search of a "perfect" travel mug to use with a variety of cup holders on my bicycle handlebars. I got tired of paper and plastic cups burbling over and even blowing away during my rides. I generally don't drink my coffee drink during my bike rides, at least not in the same way I would grab a plastic water bicycle water bottle during a ride. Usually, I'm just transporting a coffee drink and trying to keep it hot (or cold), or I may stop to take a sip. There was competition! I ordered a total of seven 16 oz insulated mugs to compare. Here's a quick breakdown with ASIN numbers so you can easily look them up on Amazon: B0039SLSU6 Thermos: Best fitting, and heaviest weight by far (i.e. highest material quality). Unfortunately encumbered by an overly complex lid design that proved problematic out of the box, and looked difficult to clean. B07S1Y48TP Lasting Coffee: Second best fitting. Meh quality. Threaded lid only twists on 1/4 turn and "pulls off" with only 1/8 twist. Prickly plastic barb on the lid. Cheap flip lid with plastic "molded in" hinge and lock. B007RTXJHS Trudeau Maison Journey: Fit was OK and I was pleased with the sealing mechanism, but decided the handle got in the way and wasn't suited for this purpose. B077FZ5CZC Rubbermaid: Flip lid similar to Lasting Coffee, a little fat for my handlebar holder. B07J1J6JTM MIRA: Very similar to Lasting Coffee, too skinny -- was concerned it would slip through one of my handlebar holders B081TK4C72 Farberware: Way too fat to fit. Described as a screw-on lid but was actually a press-on lid. The bicycle handlebar holders I'm using include an "industry standard" PDW Bar-ista drink holder (B003Z80J6E), a generic aluminum ring-style similar to the PDW, and the Delta Cycle holder which is narrower, and more similar to a water bottle cage with a silicone band pulling the two wings of the cage towards each other. The threaded-on lid takes a full turn to secure. The primary seal is a molded silicone skirt style seal that expands out to meet the inside of the mug (well, actually, it's slightly oversized and reduces in to follow the contour of the wall). The seal is removable for washing. The flip-lid pivots on a stainless steel, sprung hinge, and the trigger to open it also pivots on a sprung hinge and does not rely on bending plastic to latch / unlatch. The mouthpiece seat is stupid-simple squishy rubbery plug that just stops up the large drink hole, very similar to a baby pacifier. And then there's the lid lock, which is just extra protection against the lid flipping open. Two unappreciated features are the flip-lid has a detent so that, if it's pushed open all the way, it stays put and doesn't wiggle around, and the drink spout is great for controlled pouring into a proper ceramic coffee mug. Measurements: This mug starts at 68mm diameter at the base. It steadily tapers up to 76mm, before widening to the final 82mm diameter at the widest part. The mug portion without lid is 171mm tall. This works well to keep my coffee hot, and it doesn't drip when held upside down. Cleaning is very easy as all parts that are normally exposed to the drink are exposed. There are no hidden mechanisms like on my Contigo travel mugs or the Thermos mug I mentioned above. Lastly, I was unfamiliar with the Zojirushi name when I purchased this mug, but I came to learn (from product literature and further reading online) that it's a reputable company that's been manufacturing vacuum insulated containers since 1948, headquartered in Japan with manufacturing in Thailand. That helps to explain why the material quality is so high compared to the others (hinges and seals), but also why it was the second costliest travel mug of the seven.

The sealing mechanism is solid and has survived multiple drops without accidental opening or damage. I didn't think the locking mechanism was useful until a 2 year old managed to get a hold of the mug then tried to open the mug of hot coffee but was thwarted because it was locked. So a few things to note. The spout is wide so it is easy to drink from but the actual opening is quite narrow, about the diameter of a straw. This prevents hot coffee from gushing out but it also means its not suitable for drinking thicker liquids like a cream or tomato soup. The bottom mug part is 17cm (6.7") tall. For those hoping to brew directly: -Espresso machine, the mug is too tall to easily directly brew from any Saeco, Delonghi, Breville or Jura machines (both manual or superauto). I was able to wedge it into some espresso machines by holding it askew under the spout. -Most Keurig machines can brew directly into this mug except for the smallest models. -Aeropress works great with this mug, the top is wide enough to handle the aeropress without the funnel. The temperature retention is quite good. As a baseline, it holds things hot for hours longer than a series of contigo mugs i bought from costco. I've owned a bunch of mugs from thermos, contigo, spigg, bubba and even other zojirushi models. This is hands down the best mug i ever owned.

I love this travel mug! It is The Absolute Best Travel Mug. I tried many travel mugs and they all fell short of my expectations. I seriously tried 5-6 types and was disappointed each time. This zojirushi mug was exactly what I wanted: Large in capacity, leak proof (you can even put it in your handbag lying down and it won’t spill as long as you don’t overfill, and you lock it), keeps the drink very hot for very long, and it has a beautiful sleek design with a wide mouth. It even kept my coffee hot/warm for quite a while, when uncovered. I had the cover off because the coffee was too hot and was taking a long time to cool down. It makes this mug a much better cup to use for hot drinks in winter, than your average ceramic mug!

Excelente producto, muy resiste, de buenos materiales. Conserva mi café caliente incluso cuando por distracción dejo la tapa abierta, lo que demuestra lo bien hecho. Estéticamente luce mejor que la mayoría de los thermos que he tenido, no se raya en absoluto. Jamás ha presentado derrames ni mucho menos al beber, cosa que llegaba a pasarme con otros. A pesar de ser más caro que los de la competencia, el gasto vale mucho la pena y la inversión se paga sola.

A great size to carry around. Finally an insulated leak-proof tumbler with a diameter large enough for me to wash without bringing out a bottle brush. Loving my purchase!
