This is my favorite mug

I have been using this style of mug for years. I've broken each of my previous ones, through carelessness on my part - you can't expect a ceramic mug to survive falling from the top of a moving car. But when I break one I immediately buy another. I prefer drinking from a ceramic mug, the travel top sits in deeply enough that the plastic doesn't make physical contact. The wide base makes it a very stable cup and it doesn't slide around on my dashboard due to the ring attached to the bottom. The…

Pros
  • Comes in 6 colors
Cons
  • The mug may be too heavy for some users

This is a good mug for use at a desk. The base of the mug is about as wide as the mug is tall. The rubber pad on the bottom of the mug adds to stability. The mug will tip, but it takes a significant bump to tip it over.The mug is quite large, and is well suited to people who like to have a stable mug of water or ice or coffee or tea handy. Like others have pointed out, it is not insulated, so it's not a mug for those who like to keep their beverage hot or cold. If you drink your beverages as…

Pros
  • Kitchen & Dining
Cons
  • The size may be too large to comfortably hold

Just What I Was Looking For

I'm a daily coffee drinker, sometimes at home and sometimes on my commute. I have never really enjoyed the experience of the insulated, sealed travel cup (like the Conticos). There's something about the steady cooling through a thick, ceramic mug which enhances my java experience.This cup, sans the internal lid, is perfect for me. The narrow mouth makes it spill resistant when I hit a rough spot in the road and facilitates sipping without spilling on myself. However, it still has that wonderful

Pros
  • The Ocean Travel Mug has an ergonomic design, ensuring a comfortable grip for users
Cons
  • The mug may be too tall for some cupboards or shelves

Good product but…. on my review.

I bought 2 of theses as a gift. I fully know what I was getting. They are good mugs. I had to knock off a least one star because the seller who I believe is the manufacturer made me pay a full $10 shipping per mug! The were ordered together. Standard shipping and all. And S20 for shipping. A full 1/3 increase on the item. I WONT BE BUYING THEM AGAIN.

Pros
  • The mug's lid has a built-in drinking spout, making it easy to drink hot beverages without splashing or spilling
Cons
  • The mug may be prone to scratches or dents

All-around, unique, quality mug

Hard to tip over which is nice. Feels like drinking out of a standard mug instead of metal or plastic, so doesn't change the flavor of your coffee. Not really designed to be leak proof or ultra portable. Great for an office or in the car. You can set it on your dashboard and it won't tip! Cool, retro design. Good conversation starter!

Pros
  • The lid has a tight-fitting seal, ensuring the heat doesn't escape, keeping your drink hot for longer
Cons
  • The lid may not be spill-proof

Hotjo is a COLD-jo in disguise.

I am retired, living in RV. I make delicious coffee daily with a Breville and must keep it hot for at least two hours. I need a 17- or 18-ounce size. I use only wide bottom mugs. I own 7 styles so you might say I'm a wide bottom connoisseur. I usually buy PLASTIC because it goes in the microwave and the dishwasher (both important) and won't break while driving my 2007 Tiffin Allegro house down the highway. SO. . .I decided to give this Hotjo ceramic mug a try. It's certainly very pretty to look

Pros
  • The mug comes in a variety of colors, making it suitable for individuals' preferences and personalities
Cons
  • The mug may have a metallic taste

Read my update for my opinion

The shape of this mug is perfect for what I want. It works out for now but I’m a little suspicious of the lid. You drop the lid in and it has two prongs that grasp the mug in the grove you see near the top. I wonder how long the prongs will last before breaking. If I knew I could get a replacement I would be fine with it. It is ceramic so I’m not sure it can take a fall. Not the mugs fault, I’m just hard on mugs. Ifyouarenot a butter fingers you will be good. Lastly it is a little heavy. All in

Pros
  • The lid is made from food-grade silicone, meaning it is safe for use with hot beverages
Cons
  • The mug may be easy to break if dropped

Holds liquids, thrills Star Trek nerds

This is a fantastic mug for Trekkies who never have to go anywhere. It's great for holding liquids while stationary and demonstrating to a very small subset of people that you are the coolest kid on Deep Space Nine. Unfortunately, the lid doesn't have any locking mechanism and is in no way leak-proof. It doesn't seal, and there are big gaps where coffee comes spilling out if you so much as take a sharp turn. If you're looking for a travel mug, this isn't it.

Pros
  • The mug is versatile, and can be used in any environment, from the office to the outdoors
Cons
  • The mug may not fit into some car cup holders due to its wide top

Great everyday solution

Felt compelled to revisit this product after many months because of how useful the mugs are for everyday coffee consumption. I dispense drip coffee to these mugs using a Bonavita, and this works great for about 4 cups of coffee, ready to be on-the-go (and avoids the dispensing to a metallic carafe). The pads on the bottom of the mugs are incredibly resilient and have maintained consistency and shape, the mugs do not leak and look very nice, and the caps maintain some heat, just a great product.

Pros
  • The mug's lid is easy to clean, with no nooks or crannies that can harbor dirt or bacteria
Cons
  • The lid may not be able to withstand high temperatures

My cat can't spill my coffee!

Got a cat. He found a way to ruin my morning cup of coffee by either sticking his face in the regular ceramic mugs or knocking over the "spill proof" travel mugs. I looked high and low for a bottom-heavy coffee mug. The rest of them were metal. I needed one that could go in the microwave. This one fit the bill perfectly. Thank you! I can now enjoy my morning cup of coffee. The cat can't knock it over or stick his face in it.

Pros
  • It is easy to clean, requiring minimal effort and time
Cons
  • The lid may be difficult to put back on

Very stable mug good for me

Great mug that holds a lot. Very stable, sits on my couch armrest no problem. Only one minor complaint is the top/plug is extremely loose. I'm not sure the point of it because if the mug did tip over it wouldn't hold anything back. Also, it doesn't help keep the heat in so I just leave it off most of the time.

Pros
  • The mug's lid has a secure locking mechanism, reducing the risk of spillage and leaks
Cons
  • The mug may not be dishwasher safe
