Sipp 16-Ounce Leak Proof Drink Bottle with Tea Infuser, Black, Stainless Steel

I have at least 3 travel mugs in my kitchen cabinets that I'm not using for various reasons - it doesn't keep my tea hot long enough, it leaks in my bag, it looks worn out - and so I keep searching for the perfect travel mug. This one by Thermos is THE ONE, and my quest has now ended. First of all, it really does do what it advertises it does - keep your drink hot! The tea I make scaldingly hot in the morning still ends up burning my tongue when I take a sip at 3 pm. And it does not leak in my bag at all - the cap seal is watertight! As for the top spout, it locks securely by itself but for added protection, the little metal loop clicks over the release button and prevents you from accidentally flipping the top open. And may I just say I love the flip top! It keeps the portion where your mouth comes in contact with the spout free of dust and germs and the nasty invisible things hiding in your bag (or floating around in your office). And being a rabid tea drinker since swearing off coffee years ago as per doctor's orders, the little tea infuser is a joy! Yay, no more bobbing tea bag inside the mug that plugs up the spout and keeps me from enjoying a hot drink when the morning commute happens during a polar vortex .A recommendation for future users: I've found that this Thermos works really well in keeping your drink once you've primed it first. Meaning, fill it about halfway with really hot water and leave it there for about 10 minutes or so (the longer the better, I've discovered) before filling it up with your coffee or tea. That way the inside is already warm when you put your drink it, and will not use your drink's heat to bring itself up to temperature. I would usually put the hot water in before I get ready in the morning, and by the time I'm done 30 minutes later I can take the water out and leave it to cool on the counter for use later to water plants, then go about preparing my morning tea.A suggestion for the manufacturer: Maybe in its future iteration, could you guys make the tea infuser a little larger and can it be placed lower into the canister as well? This infuser works well for small leaf teas, but for some loose leaf teas where the leaf expands significantly as it comes into contact with hot water - sencha green teas for example - there's not much room for it to spread out. Same goes out for folks like myself who prefer their tea strong, and conversely put in more than the recommended 1 or 2 tsp of loose leaf tea per serving that can fit in the present infuser. Also, since the infuser is placed high in the canister, the tea leaf only comes in contact with the hot liquid when the canister is full. Once it's on the halfway mark, there is no longer any brewing happening - and there is a waste of perfectly good tea flavor! I find myself inverting the whole thing a couple of times to keep the tea in contact with some of the liquid that's still perfectly hot inside the mug to remedy that. Not a big inconvenience, but definitely room for improvements. Also, maybe we can have a rubberized no-slip grip in the middle of the body of the mug in the next model? Not that I've already dropped my mug in the two days that I've been using it, but I wouldn't want to!Cheers!

I did a lot of research before buying this mug, and here is my review:Packaging:It came without a box, simply wrapped in bubble tape. OK, kids had fun popping it, but overall I would expect a little better for a relatively pricey product. If you are planning on giving it as a gift, definitely plan on creating packaging for it.First impression:From the first moment, it feels like a high-quality product. Nothing appears to be flimsy, all mechanisms, rubber stoppers, and seal-rings seem very elastic, durable, and give a sense of confidence in their longevity. Even the tea mesh seems to be made of pretty strong plastic. The stainless steel mug itself has nice thick walls, and the overall design is simple, but very elegant.Heat / Cold retention:In this area, it does it's job almost too well. 6 hours after filling it with hot water, it was still blazing hot. It's almost like the time stands still inside this mug. After 12 hours, water is still hot enough to enjoy tea/coffee. Even long after 12 hours, the mug keeps water certainly warm. If you really need the mug to keep your tea/coffee hot for hours, you can't do better than this mug.Cap:The cup is pretty comfortable to drink from. The lip on the lid feels natural, and its control of flowing liquid is great, especially for how hot my tea was coming out of it. I really like the fact that the lid locks itself when open, and does not try to close on you while drinking. The few small issues are: the lid is directly opposite the area you are drinking from. If you are driving, the lid may obscure your vision, so be careful. I didn't feel this a huge issue and I simply tilted the mug a little to the side, but this is something to be considered. Also, there is a plastic flap attached to the hinge outside of the mug... what is it for? It does not seem strong enough to hang the mug off the back-pack by it... just seems like a half-thought.Tea strainer:This is probably the biggest complaint that people had/will have with this product. Yes, it's pretty small (though more than enough for 1 teaspoon of loose tea). No, it does not retract by itself to stop the brewing process. Yes, if you drink black tea and you leave the mug full of hot water with the infuser filled with tea for hours, it will make the tea too strong and not enjoyable. However, here I have to defend the design of this mug:1. If you don't want to over-steep your tea, after 3-5 minutes simply open the lid and take the strainer out. It's not permanently attached and is very easily removed.2. If you are concerned about tea not having enough room to "open up", you have a small point. However, I did not notice any difference between tea made with this infuser vs. with a separate, larger infuser that I use for tea pots. However, I really don't want it to be any bigger... see #33. If you are driving and can't take out the strainer, you can fill the mug just enough water so that it's not touching the tea strainer when the mug is upright. When you are ready to seep your tea, flip the mug upside down; the top is pretty flat and it should stand like this on a desk or in the car without any problems. Once 3-5 minutes are up, simply flip it upright again... problem solved.Overall, I am very happy with the purchase. While the mug certainly has a few design draw-backs, I find them insignificant when compared to the heat retention, built-in tea strainer / filter, and the overall design of the lid and it being perfectly leak-proof.UPDATE:OK, now that I've used it for a little while longer, thought I would provide an update. Still love it. Great (almost too good) heat retention, comfortable to hold, easy to clean, and overall the best mug I've ever owned. The ONLY thing that I wish I could change is if the lid hinge would not be directly opposite of the drinking spout. When it's open, it can block your view if you are driving, especially if you have a small head. Overall, I figured out a way of tilting it to the side when drinking, but this is definitely something I found myself struggling with more than once.In terms of leaks, the only time I noticed a few drops (and I mean a few drops) was when I poured boiling hot water into it and closed it, which no doubt resulted from extreme steam pressure from me shaking it. During ordinary use, I never see any leaks.

The media could not be loaded. 1. Perfect size in hand. Not too big not too small.2. Holds good amount3. Keeps HOT 🔥 for hours4. Light weight5. Sturdy, no spills6. Tea infuser !!7. Easy to clean.I originally bought the one with the handle, and found that to be obtrusive and unnecessary.This one with the tea infuser (removable) is much sleaker and stylish and functional.For $30 something dollars its construction is much better than some china brands.I only buy good value solid products.

Me gusta tomar té a todas horas me puse a buscar un thermo ya que quería llevar e té a todos lados, después de buscar varias opciones en distintas tiendas departamentales sin éxito busque por aquí hasta que encontré este y ha cumplido de manera sobresaliente.Para el tiempo de entrega se adelantaron unos días lo cual para mi siempre es bueno, en el empaque venía bien protegido así que lo recibí sin ningún problema.desde el momento en que lo abres puedes ver la calidad de los materiales, el vaso es de acero con un acabado muy bueno, la tapa es de plástico duro (no se que tanto resista una caída) y cuenta con varios empaques de silicon para mantener hermético el vaso y evitar derrames así como un seguro para que no se abra accidentalmente la tapa, pero la razón principal por la que decidí comprar este thermo es por el infusorio de té que viene en la tapa, no es mas que un pequeño compartimento unido a la tapa con una malla fina para infusiones té o cualquier tisana, lo único malo es que si eres un poco puritano del té una vez hecha la infusión no tienes donde dejar el compartimento (ya que me gusta dar dos infusiones) o bien puedes botarlo si esto no te molesta, la durabilidad de la malla depende mucho de los cuidados por lo que veo, ya que aunque es de calidad el material no deja de ser muy fina y ante el maltrato se puede romper fácilmente, después lo más impactante para mi fue el tiempo que mantiene caliente las bebidas, en mi primer uso puse agua hirviendo y por mas de 3 horas no fui capaz de tomar, sin problema cumple con las 12 horas que garantiza mantener las bebidas calientes y aun no lo pruebo en bebidas frías.En general vale cada peso que gasté.

Love !

Super produit. Je me fait du thé le matin et il reste chaud jusqu’en fin d’apres midi.. prix un peu élevé.

Ha sido la mejor compra de termo que he hecho. Buscaba específicamente algo para preparar un té o tesina al salir de casa antes de irme al trabajo. Siempre es un lío no encontrar un filtro de malla muy fina y el compartimiento que este termo tiene para introducir el té lo tiene. Es muy práctico para beber porque no tienes que separar el filtro y dejarlo aparte, sólo destapas y tapas el termo cada vez que tomas un trago. Conserva por muchas horas la temperatura caliente, al grado que tengo que dejarlo destapado para poder beberlo. Hice la prueba y me preparé un té al medio día, al día siguiente a las 7 am el té seguía tibio, es impresionante. Estuve casando el producto porque se agotó. Si tienen oportunidad de comprarlo no lo duden, ampliamente recomendable.
