They have vacuum insulated walls, a screw on lid and are made from stainless steel with a lacquered finish and they look pretty funky!Our opinion?We use this for hot drinks in the winter but think it works best in the summer keeping icy drinks cold. Most notably we stash ice inside ours and put in the fridge and the ice remains frozen for two days. Features Vacuum insulated and tested and approved by British StandardsGloss laquer exteriorPressure release lidPressure release airlock chamber which is important for slow release of pressure when opening hot drinks.Watertight and can be packed into a rucksack and won't leak Specifications Capacity: 330 mlDimensions: 65 W x 65 L x 160 H mmWeight: 300g Review: The best of these size flasks as proved by a little experiment! - Great little flask! We even did a little experiement vs other military coloured flasks which we already had at home. This ine out performed the others over the course of 16hrs the contents were stilk warm whereas the other cheaper flasks were stone cold so 100% wirth the extra cost! Design looks & feels quality & slots into an ammo pouch on webbing for military or cadet use. No leaks no fuss just a warm brew when you need it! Lifeventure FTW!! Review: Genuinely leakproof and keep your cuppa hot for hours - I have been buying different travel mugs for several years, in the search for a cup that is genuinely leakproof and keeps your drink hot. At last! These mugs are genuinely leakproof (just make sure the little plug is securely in place in the lid, and you don't fill the cup beyond the start of the screw threads at the top). I have never found another brand or style that was really leakproof like these. In fact, they are so tight that you may need to unscrew the top section of the lid to release pressure before you can get the lid off - that's what the extra lid part is for. These cups really keep your drink hot. They are double walled like a flask, and keep your drink hot for hours. You can make a drink at breakfast time, confident in the knowledge that it will still be hot at lunch time. I have occasionally made a cup of tea before bed to drink the next morning, and it was still drinkable, although not blistering hot after seven hours. In terms of temperature, the only problem with these mugs is that they keep your drink too hot! Do be careful if you start drinking soon after making your drink, because it will be absolutely boiling. It won't cool down with the lid on, so leave the lid off a while if you want to enjoy your cuppa. My partner and I now have several of these mugs. If I had to criticise one thing, it is that the inside of the mugs get really badly stained with caffeinated drinks. Within a few weeks, the shiny silver lining will be dark brown, and the screw threads will be stained. I have tried various methods of cleaning the mugs, including denture tablets (they work on plastic mugs but have no effect on these mugs), tough washing up brushes (nope, useless), and steel wool pads (takes a lot of physical labour for little reward). After a few months, the inside of the mugs will be lumpy with dark brown wrongness. In the end, I scraped the insides with a knife to get the worst of the lumps off, then followed up with a steel wool pad, which was effective once the brown coating was no longer intact. It takes probably half an hour of hard graft to get the mugs clean again, which is a pain in the, er, neck. It is easier to accept that the insides of the mugs will be stained and nasty looking, so just don't share your mug with others, or let anyone see inside it, and all will be well. They come in various different colours, so you can tell which mug belongs to each person. Do remember to clean the rubber seals regularly, as they quickly get clogged with caffeine wrongness. Not only does that look grim, but it's probably a perfect spot for nurturing bacteria. Pull the rubber lid seal off and wash it with washing up liquid and, ideally, a washing up brush (to get into the groove), though a sponge will work well enough if you are thorough. Be careful popping out the little central seal - if you drop it and lose it that's the end of the leak proofing. Give the little seal a wipe with a washing up sponge, then leave both seals somewhere safe to dry off. Note that these mugs are cheaper on desertcart than at Go Outdoors, where we first spotted them. Shop around on desertcart, because different colours are, for some reason, different prices. The purple one seems to be the most expensive, but is no better quality than the boring black matt ones (my preferred style). Now that we have found these brilliant mugs, we'll never buy any other kind. They're perfect for commuting to work, taking on holidays (if they are empty you can take them through airport security), and generally around the house - why make one cup of tea when you can make two? Make the second one in your travel mug, and you can enjoy it later without the faff of going back to the kettle. Perfect! ## Features - 100 percent SEALED AND LEAK PROOF: High quality threaded seal prevents leaks and spills, meaning you can screw tight shut then throw in rucksack or car until you reach your destination and need a fresh drink while on-the-go - ICE COLD OR PIPING HOT: Thermally Induced Vacuum double-wall copper-coated vacuum insulation keeps temperatures locked in for hours; drinks stay hot up to 6 hours or cold up to 12 hours, on the go, in the office or outdoors - DURABLE and SUSTAINABLE: High-quality travel mug, BPA-free stainless steel bottle with vacuum insulation; the secure tried and tested design makes sure your liquids stay in the thermal mug, not on the outside - EASY TO CLEAN: Easy to hand wash and clean, lid parts can be dismantled meaning you can keep the whole unit hygienic, fresh and free from drink remains - LIFEVENTURE: designing reliable, practical travel and outdoor accessories for your adventures; Made with sustainable materials and processes.

Sounds like you have taken the top lid off . Try unscrewing the inner lid anti clockwise . It can get a good seal sometimes so don’t over tighten . **Q: Has this be re-engineered so that the top doesn't burst off? I've had three up until about 3 years ago, but they have all been liable to bursting.** A: Although we have sold a huge number with no issues, we are aware that a few years ago we had problems with a small batch. This problem was fixed at the time. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best of these size flasks as proved by a little experiment! *by M***Y on 3 February 2026* Great little flask!

Perfect! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good little flask! *by C***R on 22 August 2022* The flask looks good and keeps your hot drinks hot for hours. Most of the time I use it, I need to take the lid off for several minutes to allow the liquid to cool off a little bit before being able to drink it. It’s size is also very handy as it will fit into almost any cup/bottle holder or pouch. It even fits into cargo trousers pockets! The opening is big enough to make cleaning it very easy. I’ve had mine for a few months now and I know it’s going to last quite some time. I know several people with these and they’ve had them for years and really put them to the test. The only issue I’ve encountered is with the small storage compartment in the lid. A few times liquid from the flask has leaked into this compartment in the lid. The actually flask has never leaked other then into said compartment. So, it is leak proof and won’t ruin your bag or any contents, but the compartment in the lid is basically useless. I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting an extremely durable flask that is a very convenient size and will actually keep your hot drinks hot for hours. Just don’t use the compartment in the lid for storage if yours does the same as mine. ## Frequently Bought Together - Lifeventure Thermal Mug, Leakproof & Vacuum Insulated Reusable Coffee Travel Cup - Lifeventure Flip-Top Thermal Mug, Insulated & Leakproof Travel Mug, 300ml --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/82607148-thermal-mug-leakproof-and-vacuum-insulated-reusable-coffee-travel-cup](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/82607148-thermal-mug-leakproof-and-vacuum-insulated-reusable-coffee-travel-cup) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-05*
