My most fave travel cup ever

I just had to write a review on this travel mug. It's the best. It's good looking and stays that way (some mugs colors peel off when put in dishwasher). It has a sturdy handle that doesn't get loose. It's got a really tough cork or cork like material on the inside of the handle and a ring of it on the bottom of the cup for non slip and non marring of the surface you set it on. The thermal quality if very good. But here's the kicker. The sliding thingy on the lid that opens and closes. For the life of me I don't know what it's official name is. But when it's open you can drink out of it and when it's closed, it's locked tight so no liquid can escape. It's the best one I've ever experienced. It slides back and forth so easily. It actually seems to be spring loaded for closing. When you move it to a certain point it snaps shut. And it's almost as easy to open. I've had this for 3-4 months and use it every day and it gets washed in the dishwasher almost every day. The handle is very handy. You can of course hold it or not hold it to drink. I sometimes hook it on my pocket or anything the handle can slip over if there isn't a surface to set it on. And the way it's designed, when you screw the top on tight, the opening is always 90 degrees to the handle. And you can do it for both right or left handed holding. In my experience, with some of these cups with the screw on top I've had to fiddle with it to get the screwing started right. This one needs minimal fiddling. It's really amazing how drip free it is with it's sliding hole cover. Minimal effort to open and close and it's so leak proof. I'm serious about that. I've never seen even one partial drop of liquid escape. An amazing combination and for me a very appreciated piece of engineering. I hope this is read by the people who designed this fabulously designed cup so they know there's someone out here that really appreciates their ingenuity and cleverness. I could say more about how much I like this cup, but you get the idea. It's now about 5 months of using this mug with multiple trips through the dishwasher. I originally hinted that the colored coating on the mug is dishwasher safe. Turns out it isn't. The coating started to peel off at the top about a month ago. Then every time it got washed in the dishwasher, it peeled a little more. The worst part about that is it can get through the screen where water leaves the dishwasher and gum up some of it's mechanical workings. So I eventually scraped all the coating off with a butter knife and did no damage to the shiny stainless surface that got revealed. It's still a great looking cup and I still give it 5 stars for it's excellent rugged and useful design. The sliding thingy that locks the liquid in is still working like brand new and is still probably my fave part of this well designed mug. Too many are clunky and much harder to open and close and some of those still leak. Still have ever ever had a leak out of this one.

Transporting liquids is a dream

I drink three travel mugs of coffee every morning. Some might say that's too much, but I'd argue it's the perfect amount. So for years now, I've taken three cups with me to work so I can have a few hrs worth of delicious coffee goodness. Throughout all those years, I've had many-a-cup. Some haven't fit in cup holders, others haven't had good seals or simply wouldn't keep the coffee hot for more than a couple hours. I even had cups with lids that randomly popped off creating a wicked hot mess (literally), which can ruin an early morning in a hurry. These cups, however, will forever hold a special place in my heart... I've had two of these for nearly three years after receiving them as a gift (Sept 2020) and recently bought two more about a month ago (May 2023). Those first two have been through many hardships as my daily drinker over such a long period of time. I once dropped a full cup out of a large forklift at top speed (like 13mph) onto asphalt from about 6' high. Once I noticed and later found it after a few hours, the cup was fine, the lid was tight, and the coffee was still hot! I was so excited that I told everyone at work about my amazing indestructible cup as they stared at me with a complete lack of interest 😁 It had a few scratches from the fall, but that was to be expected. If possible, avoid throwing it out of a moving vehicle. Although mine was fine, it's probably not designed to survive such extreme impacts. A huge benefit to me, although a minor detail and certainly not important to everyone, is the cup having a handle. Excellent for carrying (obviously) and I'm able to hook it into my pocket when I have to carry other things or use both hands for some reason. Makes it exceptionally convenient and now I can't imagine going back to a handleless cup. I can shake it up to mix the coffee, sugar, and cream (and sometimes chocolate syrup 😋) together without any spillage and they fit in all the cupholders in my life without an issue. As an added bonus, they're aesthetically pleasing to the eye, as well. If you like to have a need for portable liquids, these cups are perfect! For anyone that leaves reviews like: "it's a cup, what else can I say..." This ↑ 😆

Perfect Travel Mug for Hot Beverages on the Go!

I recently purchased the Ello Magnet 18oz Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel Travel Mug with Side Handle and Leak-Proof Slider Lid, and it has quickly become my favorite travel companion. This mug truly lives up to its promises and has exceeded my expectations in several ways. First, the vacuum insulation is fantastic. My coffee stays hot for a solid 5 hours, which is perfect for my long commutes and busy mornings. I appreciate that I can enjoy my drink at the perfect temperature without rushing. The design is both stylish and functional. The side handle provides a comfortable grip, making it easy to carry around, and the leak-proof slider lid is a game-changer. I no longer worry about spills, even when the mug is tossed into my bag. The built-in coaster is a thoughtful touch, protecting surfaces and adding to the mug’s overall convenience. The fact that it’s BPA-free and made from durable stainless steel gives me peace of mind regarding both safety and longevity. It’s also very easy to clean, which is always a plus. Overall, the Ello Magnet Travel Mug is a top-notch product that I highly recommend for anyone in need of a reliable, high-quality travel mug. Whether you’re a coffee or tea lover, this mug is perfect for keeping your beverages hot and ready to enjoy wherever you go.

Worth it!

This is by far the best travel mug I've ever purchased. Stays incredibly hot for a long time and don't let the size/shape of it fool you, it's not easily tippable (and if it should get knocked over it won't leak providing the lid is securely closed.) The lid is very easy to keep clean (5 out of 5 stars) but I had to give 4 out 5 stars for "easy to clean" because of the narrow body. It's not a big deal, a little polydent, let it sit, rinse well and good to go. I hope this helps in your quest to find a good travel mug. This customer is very happy with the purchase. Happy shopping! (PS Comes with a limited lifetime guarantee: covered- material issues, workmanship issues, efective products, (covered in Canada & US)
