Zojirushi Stainless Steel Mug, 16oz, Smoky Blue

Perfection
I was sitting in a lecture, and for once I wasn’t having trouble falling asleep. Every other day, however, it’s a struggle. It was then I noticed the person next to me pick up a thermos/tumbler (didn’t know they’re called “tumblers” until I went onto amazon) and I thought “I could use one of those, and as long as it doesn’t spill in my bag, I could have coffee for my first class or two…” I ended up buying this exact thermos during that lecture (on my phone) when I noticed such positive reviews. The words that sold it for me were “spillproof,” “safety,” and the phrase “it works TOO well, I can’t drink my coffee until several hours later!” I always drink my coffee black, and I always let it cool down before I drink it, so I wasn’t sure how well it would work out, but trust me, it did!Over the semester, I used the tumbler to store coffee in my backpack for whichever class of the day I needed it most. I would fill it up 8:30 AM, and then toss it in my backpack (initially I was weary of spills, but after testing it several times, it WILL NOT SPILL) with peace of mind, knowing that even IF my notebooks aligned to press in the button to open the spring-loaded lid, the safety latch had my back. Then, I’d forget about it (it’s quick sleek, it’ll easily fit in a backpack–it fits nicer than my “bulky” 1-liter nalgene bottle while the 1.5-liter nalgene is a different story altogether). I can remember vividly sitting in my last lecture of the day, at 2:30 starting to feel fatigued, and I’d whip out the Zojirushi, and with one hand I’d have coffee in an instance. -WARNING- If you put very hot coffee in the thermos, it’s going to come out hot. I don’t know how many times I’ve had the “first-world” problem of: “I can’t drink my coffee…. it’s still too hot” Is it a problem? Maybe for some, but it’s a nice problem to have. I would start to sip the coffee 6-hours after filling it and my friends would ask “that coffee smells really good, where did you get it?” Many times I would end up drinking half and then leave it in the thermos for a few more hours before actually drinking it. Anyway, I’ve rambled on enough.Pros:+ sleek design+ spill-proof+ safety latch (not entirely necessary, but keeps me sane)+ easy to open with one hand, it has a spring-loaded top (great if you’re writing, you don’t have to stop to drink)+ easy to clean (entire lid assembly comes apart+ keeps drinks HOTCons:-/+ Works VERY well. Drinks remain HOT.- “Only” 16 oz (I thought it was a little small at first, but since my coffee is always hot I can’t finish it fast enough to warrant a larger thermos!)- I only use it for coffee, so tea’s a no-go in the thermos (it still smells of coffee, but this would be a problem with almost any thermos, and it’s probably because I mostly just rinse it out instead of properly cleaning it) However, given the quality of the thermos, I’d be more than willing to buy another if I decide I want to be able to store tea.I will and already have recommended this to friends. I think next I’m going to buy a couple for my family!

I recently purchased a Zojirushi insulated bottle, and I couldn’t be more pleased with its performance. The design is sleek and modern, making it easy to carry around, whether I’m commuting or hiking.One of the standout features is its impressive insulation capability. It keeps my beverages hot for hours, and I’ve even found that it keeps iced drinks cold for an entire day, which is perfect for summer outings. The wide mouth opening makes it easy to fill, pour, and clean.The materials feel durable, and the lid seals tightly, preventing any leaks. I appreciate the variety of colors available, allowing for a bit of personal style.Overall, the Zojirushi bottle is a fantastic investment for anyone looking for a reliable and stylish hydration solution. Highly recommended!

I’ve been using many well-known brands for my travel mug. Hydroflask, frank green etc, but noticed they seem to lose the heat within a few hours. Zojirushi is a well-known brand, I own their rice cooker which has lasted me over 10 years. I only can find this brand in Asia, this flask has been on my wishlist for a while. I recently had a notification of the reduced price of £27 and ordered right away.It did take a few weeks to arrive from the USA, but more than happy to receive it. On first impressions, this stainless steel flask is super lightweight, lighter than the current ones I use. The slim profile makes it easy to fit into the side of my backpack.The travel mug/flask fits 480ml of liquids, perfect for my matcha lattes, teas and coffees. The matcha latte I made wasn’t too hot when I poured it into the flask. I was very surprised to find my drink still hot 4 hours later. It outperformed my other products miles away. The outside doesn’t sweat even with the smooth metal finish. The double-wall vacuum seal works very well.I love that there is a pout-style, which controls the amount of liquid when you drink and the lock at the front is handy. To stop you when accidentally opening the lid. The sprout can be separated from the lid, which makes it easy to clean.
