Know before you buy
The vacuum insulation is highly effective, keeping beverages at approximately 189°F after one hour and 160°F after six hours. It is designed to maintain a drinkable, hot temperature throughout a standard morning commute.
Yes, the lid features a dedicated safety lock that prevents the button from being pressed accidentally. When locked and closed, it creates a secure seal that prevents leaks and spills during transit.
The mug features a 1-5/8 inch wide mouth, which is designed to accommodate most standard-sized ice cubes. It is wide enough for easy filling and cleaning, though very large specialty ice spheres may not fit.
The interior is made of high-quality 18/8 stainless steel with a nonstick coating designed to be inert and flavor-neutral. It prevents residue buildup and staining, ensuring your drink tastes exactly as it should without lingering metallic or previous-use flavors.
To preserve the vacuum seal and the integrity of the finish, it is recommended to hand wash the mug. The wide mouth makes it easy to reach inside with a bottle brush for thorough cleaning.
