Amazon.com Review Do your part for the environment: Use this recycled travel mug for your take-out coffee instead of paper or Styrofoam cups. Not only does Aladdin make the mug from 100% FDA-approved recycled plastic, known as eCycle, but it's completely recyclable itself at any place that recycles plastic. (It's imprinted with the number 5 on the bottom.) Down the line, this mug may end up being transformed into outdoor decking, park benches, or planters. The travel mug is the first item to be launched from Aladdin's Sustain collection. Not only does using this travel mug make you feel virtuous, but it works. Double-wall construction keeps up to 14 ounces of your drink hot or cold, and the twist-off lid helps prevent accidents. Slim and attractive, with wavy lines adding subtle decoration, the tumbler shape fits into standard car cupholders. You can even warm your drink in the microwave using this mug, and slip it into the dishwasher for carefree cleanup. Choose your color, and start reducing waste. The Earth will thank you for it. --Ann Bieri

Finally, a travel mug that is dishwasher safe! January 8, 2009 Happy Buyer (Long Island, NY) 14 out of 14 found this review helpful
It took me a LONG time to find a coffee mug that was dishwasher safe, was BPA free, didn't leak and kept coffee hot on my husband's commute to work. I don't remember how I stumbled upon these mugs, but they fit the bill to a tee. I bought 4 of these mugs and my husband says they are great. We highly recommend them.
finally found my microwave safe travel mug! April 20, 2009 Aaron Mentzer (Provo, UT, USA) 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
+WON'T LEAK OR SPILL (if you keep it basically upright)*
+microwave safe
+dishwasher safe
*The lid screws on tight and spill proof, but there is a half-moon-type of opening on top that you're supposed to drink out of. The only way to 'close' it is with the flat piece of plastic that twists over the opening or to the side so you can drink. If the mug is full and you turn it upside down or on its side... yes, it will leak. If you have it full and twist the cover shut while you drive or go out to your car, you're not going to have spilling issues. There is a 1/2" lip that goes all the way around the top to keep your liquid from going over the side and spilling.
Pretty good so far November 19, 2009 JimElyriaOh (Ohio) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
The tumbler style has a definite advantage over the mug (with handle) style. There's no problem with aligning the drink opening at a 90 degree angle to a handle.
The screw top lid with a gasket is better than a snap on lid, because it doesn't dribble through the lid/mug seal (so far.) Also, the lid is pretty well ventilated for a good flow, and it seals well when the opening is closed off.
I had another pretty good insulated tumbler from Dunkin Donuts that was double walled acrylic. After a short time, the acrylic started to develop fine cracks inside and leaked between the walls. The material on this tumbler is not as brittle and I don't think it would crack, even if it bounced off a hard floor.
I've also had a few cups with a lid made of a black rubbery type of material that would taste (and smell) rubbery, especially when the coffee is hottest (no bad taste or smell with this one.)
I have never found, or expect to find, any cup that insulates as well as I would like, so that's really not an issue. I think that if you want it hot, drink up and don't expect miracles. If this cup stands up to my daily use for a few months, I'll probably buy a couple extra, just in case.
Perfect for to and fro work!!!!! Durable! Dishwasher safe!! October 21, 2009 Mark A. Lingle (Sewell, NJ) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I searched many a review to find the perfect travel cup to use for my wake up tea as I'm commuting to work. I read the ceramic cup reviews and the gigantic coffee mugs and ultimately settled on buying a pair of these wonderful Aladdin travel cups. The lids make a positive lock and it's not made of that cheap plastic that changes the taste of your tea and coffee like some mugs do. It's narrow design affords me the ability to easily transport it in my beverage holder. The holder should be deep enough to keep it from bouncing out. If your cup holder is only 1 1/2 inches high and you put this tall boy in, then first bounce it's out of there! It insulates very well and seems to be an insulated air pocket around the perimeter. It does not dent, for the plastic is very thick. Surprisingly the cup is not overly heavy though. I read a lot of reviews on other cups discussing spill proof as a concern so I will address that on this cup. It has a flap on top that swivels to prevent splashing. It is not spill proof nor do they advertise that it is. Spill proof to me while driving is not necessary. I'm not a toddler. I just need to keep the liquid from splashing when I'm hitting the numerous New Jersey potholes on my one hour commute to work everyday. Hope this helps you decide. Mark
Does it come in a camo design? February 12, 2009 LOUIE (BRONX, NY USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I use it during the morning while I'm at work.
It does keep my Green tea hot for about 2 1/2 hours, before it begins to cool down.
You can't beat that it's Eco-friendly, strong enough to take a hit and not break. Plus the price makes it easy to purchase more than one.
If Aladdin updates this mug, hopefully they will add a rubber grip.
