Aladdin Essential Stainless Steel Insulated Travel Mug 16oz Black

It has an elegant appearance for a travel mug and it insulates very well! What else do you need? It is not spill proof, you want drip free? Get a Copco Flair mug, it is amazingly well sealed! Both will just barely fit in a car cup holder! The Migo is comfortable to drink from with or without the lid, the Flair only with the lid on. Neither are top heavy and both are great mugs with metal interior and both can be left or right hand use. You want appearance, get the Aladdin, you want rugged looks and spill proof, the Copco Flair.

Pros:- Comfortable grip handle- Right/Left Handle design- Elegant/professional look- Built in coaster/grip at the bottom of the mugCons:- Fluids do leak- Hard to clean by hand because the mug is so narrowI am pretty satisfied with this mug. I am very content with the quality for the price I got it for. The mug is very classy, great stainless steel look. Love the handle, good silicone grip. Some say that the handle came right off after using for quite some time, but I have not encountered that problem yet. There is also a built in rubber coaster attached to the bottom of the mug which I also love. I don't like the lid of it. It's a typical cheap plastic lid you can find on any other coffee mug. The open/close where you drink out of, turns 360 instead of sliding up/down. The air vent of the lid only opens when the opening, opens. There is a rubber lid for proper insulation built inside the lid to prevent leakage. From the side of the lid, the mug does not leak. However, it leaks through the opening/closing at the top of the lid. Drinks have stayed hot within anywhere between 1-2 hours which did not really bother me because I finished my coffee within the hour. I handwash the mug. I have to admit the inside is very narrow therefore, it makes it little harder to handwash because my hand cannot fit into the mug. If you are handwashing this mug, I recommend a baby bottle brush. I have not placed the mug in a cup holder yet so I do not know if it actually fits into one, although some mentioned that it has. I hope this helps. I recommend this mug. It's great quality for the price.

This is definitely not worth the money I spent on it. It does not seal tight. The first time I used it, it spilled coffee out of the top by leaking when it tipped slightly. In the direction, it says "To prevent spills, make sure your lid is screwed on completely before use." I had it on as tight as it would go and it still spilled out (It was filled just where the directions say to fill it)! Don't waste your money on this item. I purchased it because of the name (Aladdin) but I guess it was a bad choice on my part.

The pictured mug is not exactly the mug you get.I have the mug in the picture, which is leak-proof, but one I received from Amazon has a different cap. The cap is flimsy and easily leaks (not just leaks, I would call it a pour). The model names are not on these mugs, Amazon should correct the picture as it is misleading to its customers. One of a few times a brick and motar store would have been better.The only good thing is that the base is interchangable with my superior leak proof cap. So I essentially own a leak proof mug and a half.

While this is a decent mug, it's in Walmart for half the price - $8.44. Wish I hadn't used it prior to seeing it in Walmart.

It's solidly-built, and looks nice. The handle seems to be nice and solid, the lid mechanics are simple and easy to clean. Unlike some travel mugs it does hold a full 16oz. The heat retention isn't superb, but honestly that's not a problem for me! If I was really concerned about heat retention, I'd use a vacuum thermos. I use this cup daily at my desk, because I don't need to worry too much about spilling a full cup of joe on my keyboard or lap.

I LOVE this mug. This is the second one I own. I bought the first one several years ago and loved it so much, I had to get one for home. The first one I bought has been used for 6 days a week for the last couple years. I have had no issues with the handle, the top, or anything else. I bought this one for home after getting tired of the different contraptions that other mugs have on top... Spring loaded lids, joints in the stainless that leak water after you wash them, yada yada yada. This mug is simple, it keeps my coffee hot, and has made it through two years of constant use effortlessly.

This is a great travel mug. It holds plenty of coffee, and keeps it hot for quite some time. I had the same mug previously, but the inside bottom got rusty and the outer bottom was unstable. It seems the maker, Aladdin, has fixed these problems - I have had the new one a long time, and it has not developed those problems. I use this every day for work... Love it!
