Amazon.com Review
Drinks stay hot or cold for up to seven hours in this insulated, double-walled, stainless-steel travel mug from OXO. Plus, three silicone seals in the lid opening prevent leaks and drips from spoiling clothes on the way to work. One hand is all that's needed to operate this mug: a button in the middle of the lid opens the drinking seal (a red background alerts the user to its open position); and then closes the device. Letting a few seconds lapse before closing will allow liquid in the spout area to drain back inside, thus preventing drips. The sleek, brushed-finish, stainless-steel body of the mug fits any standard car cup holder. OXO's signature soft, non-slip material rings the mug neck, allowing for a secure grip when drinking or unscrewing the contoured lid. The mug holds 14 ounces--room for a double-tall latte with extra foam. A marked `max' line inside prevents over-filling. Preheating or pre-chilling the mug is recommended for increased insulation value. For best results, wash the mug by hand after each use. OXO backs all its products with a satisfaction warranty, and will replace or refund any returned item. --Ann Bieri

 Do Not Buy August 29, 2010
J. Tubin (Philadelphia)
I have used this travel mug every day for about six months. While cleaning it one day, I noticed black stuff coming from the lid. After removing the gasket and pulling the lid apart, I was shocked. Inside, the mold that had grown was absolutely gross. I cannot believe I was drinking this. I certainly hope that no one gets sick from using this mug. Since this happened, I have read reviews about ways to clean it, but I really don't think any of them would really get rid of this buildup.
Warning! August 29, 2010

Don't buy this mug or any mug like it until you're certain that you can clean the lid.
The design of these lids (especially this one) are too clever by half. It's a classic demonstration of engineering without testing.
You will be disgusted (or amazed) by what grows in your lid over the course of three or four weeks.
Here's the news though: an OXO spokesman told me that this mug's lid is being redesigned so that it's cleanable. She said the mug would be available Christmas (2010). Hold tight until then.
Can't clean the mug itself August 9, 2010

Unlike other reviewers, I haven't had the mug long enough for the top to become gummy and dirty. My problem was that within two weeks of buying the mug, I could no longer clean the inside. It smells like spoiled milk no matter what I do. The stainless part is not stamped out of one piece of metal. Instead the bottom is pressed on, and I believe by leaving coffee and milk in the mug for many hours, it worked it's way into the seams where the metal is stamped together. I hand cleaned it to death, used vinegar and hot water, and finally put it through several dishwasher cycles, but the mug still smells bad.
I will look to replace this mug with one that is stamped out of one piece of stainless.
piece of junk August 5, 2010

The designers were probably too preoccupied in making sure it doesn't leak from the top...this thing leaks from the side ALL THE TIME!!! It ruined bags, jackets, books, etc and made for miserable commutes until I replaced it with a better model (Thermos).
 Other Design Flaws August 4, 2010
Ian F. Mcgrady (New York City)
I filled it with boiling water. The middle button operates a open/closing valve with a reassuring click. The other reassuring thing it does is it takes a volume of the boiling water I put into the mug and spits it right back out in my face while it's still hot. Then pouring it out, the lid is designed not to pour forward but to go into a mouth, so if you need to decant hot water into a different cup it will backsplash. I agree that in other ways this thing looks and feels good, and the sealing mechanism is the only one I'd feel ok about putting into a bag with anything else. But be careful while using it.
