The cup has a sophisticated, appears robust, can be kept really pleasant due to the cuff and not slip out of your hands. The drinking spout is pleasant, as one has really paid attention to the details. The cleaning proves to be quite easy for the most part, you can simply unscrew the lid and ausspühlen. However, the actual locking mechanism is not dismantled what prepares me some concern because it is poorly sealing disc, here the distance is a bit too small and the discharge opening at the top of the lid is built over a lattice, can be described somewhat difficult. Let's see if there's nothing to fix. But so far, after about 6 weeks still everything looks okay.
Most importantly, the cup is really absolutely tight. The first few days it was unusual, based on experience with other thermo cups to pack the Travel Mug backpack. Always afraid that it runs a bit or raustropft ... but these fears were totally unfounded. It drips absolutely nothing out, whether lying down or upside down.
If you have been drinking and the shutter "button" presses to close the opening again, it may be that even a small drop remains in the lid, these simple yet abtrinken and everything is in butter.
The thermal function is also not bad. For me has been proven, while I aufbrühe the coffee, fill the cup with hot water and preheat so. So it stays hot longer.
One disadvantage I see to the lid partly a bit difficult to screw up and is. Due to the plastic lid has often not enough grip to turn off the lid. Often I have to pinch between your thighs and turn with both hands on the lid of the mug then. My friend this is also confirmed, as if to ausspühlen the cup after use did not get it on alone.
The biggest negative point in my opinion is the own taste, which as far as I can tell, probably originating from the rubber seals in the lid. My friend said on the first day you get the feeling that the coffee tastes a bit funny. I noticed this on also and confirmed anew every day. So far, he has not gone.
The taste of the coffee is slightly different, hard to describe. If you can smell the dry seals I notice a slight odor which is also the drink easy to recognize. It is not dramatic, but I do not want to leave unmentioned, because this slight odor and aftertaste occurs in two cups and is not yet even gone the.
Overall, I'm quite happy with the cup, even though he has a few weaknesses. He keeps the drink good warm, it can be good to drink from it and closes absolutely tight. He accompanies me every day on my way to work and the backpack so far remained dry and the coffee hot. Only dim the non-separable drinking cap, the so far but still looks clean, and the slight taste of its own the overall impression a bit.
