Review on Stainless Resistant Insulated Comfortable Shatterproof by John Vann

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good but not the best in kitchen and dining room

I bought this because I wanted to save some money by buying coffee every morning before work. I have a lot of K-Cup mugs at home, so I think it's time to bring a mug to work. I looked for many different coffee mugs on Amazon. But I wanted something like a real homemade mug, similar to the version. This exquisite mug was perfect. But there are also disadvantages. First, the handle is very thin. I don't think it will take longer than 3 months. I would be surprised if this happened and I will be doing a 3 month update. Another disadvantage of the handle is that it is already rusting at the top of the handle. I've only been using it for a few days and the top of the handle where it makes contact with the real mug is already showing rust. Second disadvantage. Will NOT fit in a car cup holder. But luckily I was able to fine tune it because I keep the coin holder in one of the cup holders and when I place this mug in the other, the handle actually clips or rests on the coin holder, thus holding the mug in place when I'm carrying groceries. So far, so good. Unless I drive like Dale Earhart. Then I think that coffee will be everywhere, even with a lid. The third and last mistake. Doesn't keep the coffee hot long enough. Hardly longer than the traditional paper coffee mug you can buy in the store. I'd say the coffee stays at a good temperature about 30 minutes longer than a standard store-bought paper cup. I want it to stay warm for at least an hour or two. But actually it doesn't hold the heat that well. In general: If these 2 cups last me all winter, then I would say that the money was well spent. But I don't think I will buy it again. I just wanted a mug that I could take to work and still look like a mug with a handle at home. I didn't need those giant coffee mugs that looked like thermos flasks.

Pros
  • Household and kitchen
