Ogden Ceramic Coffee Travel Mug

I was looking for a ceramic travel mug without a handle that I could use with the shoulder-strap-style drink (tumbler style) carrier/holder that we also purchased on Amazon. There were not many options for the style of carrier that fits this type of travel mug (most were for the huge ones) and there were not many options for ceramic travel mugs without handles, so the fact that the two items pair perfectly is delightful! Now I can tote coffee around with me (in a real ceramic "mug", not metal or plastic) when working in the garden. The lid is good quality and easy to use and clean, not the lightest weight, not the heaviest weight, but midrange. I'm very happy with the mug, the lid and the sleeve. The cup/mug is well made, no chemical smells, no flaws of any kind, came with a tag (seems like a real ello product) and is good quality, looks exactly as shown in photo. If I had found it locally and felt and seen the quality I would have definitely still purchased. (Not that this cup is around here) The return policy made me feel confident, in case it was cheap or arrived broken. But it's good and arrived perfectly. The quality is better than expected, as hoped for. It compares to what one might expect to find in a place where they have good quality kitchen wares. The only thing I would change about this ceramic travel mug is (nothing except) that it would be for it to be available in more color options. :-) If they made it in true green, I would buy another. I got the purple one shown and it is as shown and looks nice. The combo of the ceramic with the grippy no-slip sleeve is pleasing. The grippy sleeve fits nicely and goes under the outside bottom edge of the cup so if you have it on a slippery surface it's okay. It's got grip. You can set it on top of your vehicle while putting groceries in and it stays fine. Plus, it won't scratch or scuff the surface it is set on. Since it is ceramic, I pop a basket style tea strainer in and make a one drink coffee in this without a coffee maker. Remove that, empty the grounds into the compost and delish coffee to go. The pastel colors make these especially good Spring and Easter gifts, just don't forget to fill with candy! haha It's looks nice and functions well. Very happy with this travel mug. Recommend.

Honestly the best coffee mug I've ever owned. Doesn't keep heat as well as a Thermos, never expected it to, but it fits my Clever Coffee Dripper perfectly and it's easy to drink from. Nice tactility. Nice weight.

Very nice easy to hold Fits in cupholder great. The downside is the lid. Doesn’t stay on very well and will leak copy your hot drink out.

I needed a good ceramic mug because I got sick of metal and plastic travel mugs making my coffee taste weird. This fit the bill. It's also easy to disassemble and is dishwasher safe. The silicone sleeve is also crazy gripy, to the extent that your car's cup holder might not want to let go. However, be aware that this is NOT a thermos and is NOT leak-proof. It will not keep your drink boiling hot and it will leak if it tips over. This is basically your favorite at-home coffee mug with a lid on it. If you hit a bump on the road, your drink won't splash all over your car, but you might see some spots show up on the lid. It's great for what it is, a good mug for drinking coffee on the road. I would not take this on a hike or camping. I've had this mug for maybe 4ish years and it's served me well. Make sure you clean the mug, lid, and rubber seal on the lid after every use!

The build quality is great. It's super sturdy and I prefer to drink out of porcelain. However, my drinks don't stay hot because the lid does not fasten tightly to the cup. This also makes for spills. The liquid will definitely spill out if tilted. Why??????? All in all, it's just a coffee cup and I'm not going to return it. If I had it to do over again, I would not have purchase it.

This mug is one of the worst experiences of my life, and I have seen illness, death, natural disaster, and poverty. When the mug arrived, I washed it. This did not change the fact that it smelled like the Chinese factory that mass produced it is also churning out benzine and insecticides. I filled it with filtered water, and put it in my purse. The lid was firmly secure, and the mug was never tipped more than five degrees from a right angle. This mug LEAKED from the seams, the sliding mechanism at the top, and especially from where slide tab intersects-it was like a garden hose was let loose on my body, my bag, and my car. I had no time to literally mop up the damage, so I had to sit through a meeting looking like I urinated all over myself for over an hour. When I got home, I spread out all my things from my purse, like my day planner and my notebook, like accordions so mildew wouldn't fester. But still, all these things are warped and the ink has run. But wait, the SUCK MUG wasn't through ruining my month. The silicone housing is carefully designed so that water is trapped within its many labyrinthine protuberances and folds, so when I tipped it over to drink from it, it also attacked my laptop and the clothes I'd changed into. Nicely played, Hell-o. As others have pointed out, the Ello mug is heavy as a brick, and of course you don't want to put it in a cup holder or bag as it will turn into a property-destroying geyser of water or coffee. It doesn't insulate worth a d**m, and within thirty minutes all of the ice is melted, or conversely, the coffee is lukewarm. However, your coffee will give you second degree burns before this happens. I know this is subjective, but the suck mug is also hideous. It looks like 70's paneling. Others have noted that the mug will spontaneously break. I haven't experienced this yet, but I am sure that is the next unpleasant surprise-clay made of floor sweepings, cremains, and heavy metals sending explosive "pottery" shards into my chest and neck. Ello should send a mass shipment of these mugs to ISIS, after which they will all die of frustration, dehydration, and mold inhalation. I spent three hours looking for a mug that didn't taste like metal or plastic that I could put my hand into all the way to the bottom for through hand cleaning, which apparently rivals the cancer moon jump in its lofty challenge to mankind.

Great

Excelente material, tanto externo como interno, acabamento perfeito, serve para água gelada como quente, prático e uma vedação ótima, até agora... Iridilson Ribeiro da Silva GG7

The heft, the size, are both great. The silicone feels nice, the lid is one of the nicest lids (just a little small on the mouth-opening for me, but it's minor). It looks great, and survives modern appliances which is a great feature.

This is a great mug. I hate the taste of stainless steel but wanted a travel mug and this ceramic mug is the best. It’s a great size, sturdy. The sleeve has a good grip and helps keep the coffee warm. I definitely recommend this mug!!

Really secure - lid was fantastic. The ceramic meant no horrible metal taste which was the idea behind purchasing. Really easy to clean, as the lid isn’t too complex. Size wise, just right for my car holder so really pleased!
