Before I bought the mug of a competitor (the Thermos brand), which was really bad, who kept the heat barely 2 hours and fleeing to the cover level. With this çi it's great as I tend to take my time to drink coffee or tea, whether for breakfast. or to relax with me, the liquid cooled too fast and was always cold in the end. Now it's great, I can take all my time, this happens even to bring me my coffee at work when I have a hard "emergence" the days I have to get up at 5:30. In addition as the lid is quite secure, even if it overturns are no leaks, it withstands the bumps (I go to work by bike in a bike path in the countryside). Also I just bought a metal loft bed Ikea, and I like to drink cool water at night, as the handle is open I can hang it on the horizontal bars of the bed and he holds very good. So I am going to order another.
