Carter Travel Mug 355 ml - Ceramic-Lined, Leak-Proof, Matte Black

I was looking for a small, modestly sized thermos style mug that was *actually* leak proof to take inside my bag on the way to work. This criteria is apparently not easy to find, and I was fairly hesitant with spending this much on something that I'd spent half as much on for twice the size before. Having not found anything else that matched all my criteria (not small enough, or not actually leak proof), I pulled the trigger on one of these. Although it is just a mug, I've been fairly blown away by how good it is. It's small and fits in bags much easier than most thermos mugs which tend to be tall and skinny. It is *actually* leak proof, the lid screws down tight, and you're not relying on a little silicone stopper jammed into a spout, to stop your entire coffee from filling the inside of your bag, like alot of other options at this size. You can quite confidently chuck it into your bag and not worry if it spins upside down. It keeps drinks nice and warm, or cold, for as long as most people would reasonably need. The ceramic inside also holds less of the stale coffee smell that gets into all thermos mugs, although, it does still happen. Cleaning is also much easier than other mugs. There aren't any moving parts or straws that are hard to clean, and the opening is wide so you can get your hand and a sponge in quite easily. It also looks great. The texture makes the external feel hard wearing and grippy in the hand. I'd definitely say that this is worth the extra money over other travel coffee mugs. Alot of 'brand names' sell products with premium price tags without offering anything unique or premium for the price, but that definitely isn't the case here.

I love the general design, as I hate those sippy cups with a tiny hole to drink from, that always burns my mouth. The rim is comfortable when drinking from the cup. The cup also doesn’t need to be obsessively washed. I’ve had mine for about two months now, I usually rinse it with boiling hot water and Ive washed it with dish soap maybe 2-3 times, as I almost only carry coffee in it. The coffee oils preserve the inside of the bottle so no need to preserve it with dish soap after every use ;) . It keeps the coffee warm for long but not like a whole day. More like about 4-5 hours. Still good enough, and better than most coffee cups on the market. Will see how long it will endure but I do use mine almost every day and it’s looking very good! I have the white cup and there’s not discoloration that I would notice or consider as ruining to the whole design. Overall, very happy with the purchase! I think Ill also add that I don’t use any milk in my coffee so if you do I’m guessing the washing process might be different because of how milk’s properties might have a different impact on the bottle’s inside.

The product is well built, and definitely look high premium. It holds the temperature amazingly well. We had kept the coffee in it for 4 hours and them, when we drank it, it was pretty hot, requiring to wait a little bit to cool down before drinking. The Aeropress fits perfectly in this, really, it fits in a high stand for my OCD!!! It is very preasure the quality of this product, for coffee nerds like me. The only downside for me is that it leaks coffee sometimes. Idk if the O-Ring is the problem, or what, but I have spot sometimes some trays of milk (coffee latte) leakage in it.

It’s perfect. Honestly one of my new favourite possessions. Good size, ceramic lined (doesn’t stain or affect the taste of my coffee), easy to wash, holds temperature pretty well, leak proof enough for my purposes (mainly commuting) and extremely well designed for drinking from.

Fantastic quality mug, perfect for my morning Aeropress brew! Pricey for a mug but top quality.

This mug is well designed. It keeps my drinks hot for hours and the taste is not tanted. I love the fact that it is ceramic and so easy to clean. It does not stain which means that you always get the proper taste of your drinks. It does not leak.

This is such a great commuter coffee cup or fantastic to throw in your bag when going for a long walk. It is completely leak-proof, with a smooth design that fits perfectly and doesn’t have any unnecessary bits that catch on other contents of your bag. I’ve had mine for 3 years and re-purchased as gifts for family and friends. Super easy to clean and doesn’t stain or smell of previous contents, even if coffee has been sitting in it for hours. Great find!

Keeps my coffee hot for hours, never timed it but at least a whole morning. Air tight and leak proof. Works nicely under store coffee machines with double nozzles, without any fuss. A little chunky in hand, I use an old band around mine.

This cup does exactly what I need. I make a black coffee at 7am and when I go to drink it at 1030/11 it’s too hot. I have to leave the lid off for a few minutes. I don’t pre warm the cup as it’s unnecessary. Perfect for bringing a coffee to work. No leaks. Love it.

Después de varios meses de uso se mantiene en perfectas condiciones. Lo utilizo para llevarme el té/café y no beber del malo que tenemos en el trabajo. - Las bebidas se mantienen calientes alrededor a 5-6 horas, si lo preparas por la mañana antes de trabajar, te lo puedes beber a temperatura óptima a media mañana. - Es fácil de limpiar, como por dentro esta recubierto de un material cerámico blanco, no es nada poroso y a veces sería suficiente enjuagarlo con agua y volver a depositar otra bebida en el mismo día. - No te tenido ningún problema de fugas y la goma de la tapa sigue manteniéndose en su sitio después de medio año. Es caro sí, pero cumple su cometido perfectamente, es limpio, mantiene las bebidas calientes y tienes la seguridad de que no se va a salir. Además es bonito, la gente me suele decir que parece un altavoz portátil. Repetiré con algún producto más de la marca.

Great, keeps drinks hot.

Increíble. El mejor mug que puedes comprar. Es perfecto, mantiene la temperatura y la frescura del café y chocolate. No se le sale nada. Comprare 3 más.

Perfect size, perfect design
