Mannhart 212g Light Sipper, One Touch Easy Open Drinking Travel Mug, Super Light Weighted Portable Size 500ml Insulated Water Bottle, Hot 8H Cold 24H, Stainless Steel, BPA Free, B203 Gunmetal

I own both of Mannhart's early products (the plastic water bottle and the large 1L insulated behemoth); this is the perfect middle ground between the 2.First of all, the size. This fits perfectly in my car's cup holder, perfectly in the side of my laptop backpack, perfectly in my hand and perfectly on my desk at work, taking up very little space.It is, as advertised, leak-proof however you need to be careful: if you assemble this while the lid is still wet after cleaning, it can leak as liquid is then able to pass through where the water already is. You need to be sure to dry the lid properly before screwing it on and transporting it, or you might find that when you drink from it and close the lid, some tea / coffee / whatever leaks out the top (a tiny amount). This is the case with every travel mug I've ever used though so it's probably not news to you, I just wanted to be thorough when testing it out.This travel mug has a really nice design; it's sleek and a very attractive minimalistic colour with their gorgeous new logo on it. The clip / lock on the lid is really easy to operate with gloves on, so when it's freezing cold outside there's no compromise needed when using it.The insulation is fantastic; I get up at 0730, shower etc. and then go and make myself a cappuccino in this travel mug. I know that I'm not going to start drinking the coffee until around 0930 / 1000 but I can still put time and care into the coffee I make because I know it'll still be hot when I get to it. Coffee should be only just too hot to drink when it's made, and it's still so a couple of hours after I put the lid on, after traveling to work in the freezing cold.Finally, cleaning. Cleaning this product is actually surprisingly easy. The lid screws off and the mug itself can just be cleaned with a brush (it's very narrow so forget cleaning it like you'd clean a regular mug). The lid opens up nice and wide so you can clean both sides of it and the seal comes out from the inside as well so you can clean that thoroughly and ensure there's no build up around / behind it. As I said above, be sure to dry it thoroughly (I use kitchen towel if I need to dry it in a hurry) to avoid possible leakage.All in all this is easily 5 stars. This is the best purchase I've made in a long time because it's become a part of my routine and saved me from having to buy coffee on the way to work or drink the horrible instant stuff in the office!

I can make a hot drink at 8am and at 3pm it's still too hot to drink in one go! This is a brilliant travel/everyday mug that keeps its content hot for a very long time. The only thing I would have liked to have seen was maybe a grip feature as the outside can be a little slippery when holding it. Its leakproof feature works great as I've have no problems and I use it daily (had it for a month now). It's a neat size and fits great in my work bag. Would highly recommend this.

Was hesitant at first buying this after seeing it advertised Everywhere but bit the bullet and its awesome. So good I actually got 2. Kept a coffee steaming hot for 10 hours. Problem is it can be too good and you have to wait a while to drink your drink. Leak proof is awesome. Can finally put a coffee in my laptop bag and not worry if its lying down or upside down

I have used this travel mug 4 days a week since it arrived on 17th January 2019 (this is written on 2/4/2019. It has been brilliant, looks good, leakproof kept my tea hot for longer than stated time and even fit in the cup holder in a sprinter van. The paint has scratched off in places but that is wear and tear. Unfortunately after being brilliant for 2.5 months it is now crap. The exterior is hot to the touch when a brew is made when it didn’t used to be and doesn’t keep a drink warm for the few hours I need it to. It hasn’t been banged or dropped and it is all steel anyway. I have ordered a replacement from another manufacturer and will see how that performs. If it doesn’t I will order another one of these and hop it lasts longer.

I love this product! It's very efficient and great at its job. Should have 5 stars but only giving 4 as it's so efficient, I have still burnt my mouth on the contents hours after filling! As a travel mug... I have found that I need to decant the contents I to another cup so it can cool a bit before drinking! Thus defeats the purpose of having it on the go...

Great product. I use it to keep lukewarm water that I sip throughout the day. Apparently it’s healthier. Keeps temperature good for long time. Easy drinking and leak proof. I’ve learnt to do a conscious slightly extra twist to ensure lid sealed, as I have had small leak just tightening it quickly. Ordered a second one for a gift for my mum. I think she will appreciate carrying her hot drink when she is out and about.

Good quality and light and easy to use. When drinking the liquid does not gush out but comes out in a nice small trickle which is easy to drink. It is also nice and slim and fit easily in most tracksuit or jacket pockets.

Very well built, quality materials and good looks.Keeps stuff hot for a long time, and cold for even longer.It can spill a bit if you shake it a lot etc, so don't just throw it in the backpack. Try to keep it straight up and you should be fine.After a month of daily usage there is hardy any visual wear and tear.
