Great Mug! October 7, 2008 Terri-lynn Bernardo This mug is awesome. It was hard to find a large mug that would hodl coffee for all day. My only omplaint is that it doesn't have a closure on the opening so if I go over a bump a little spills - no big deal!
Copco Travel Mug October 3, 2008 S. Ornelas I bought these for my husband. They are the only ones that don't fall out of his cup holder. I have a cupboard full of travel mugs and these are the only ones he will use. Love Them.
THE item for those that need it July 10, 2008 Plain Jim (Central Jersey) Look, the only people who should be seriously considering this mug are people who need a mug that holds 24 ounces. These are mostly folks that drink 24 ounces of their beverage in the time it takes most folks to drink eight. If you're in that crowd, read on. If you're not - if you're looking for a system that will keep your coffee hot for eighteen hours, or that won't sully the impeccable flavor of your Guaruvian kitty-dung extra roast - look elsewhere.
OK, did all those dilettantes leave? If you're still reading, it's because you want a 24-ounce (or larger) mug, probably for hot beverages. If that's the case, you have only a few choices: the CopCo Big Joe (either single or double), the Thermos DF4010, or some plastic mugs offered mostly at hunting/camping or NASCAR sites. The ones from the hunting/camping sites won't fit into your car cupholders. The NASCAR ones look like they do, but some of them are so huge, they also look like they'll upset in your lap ever time you take a right turn. So I'm going to keep my comments to the CopCo and Thermos offerings.
I bought both of them several months ago. I have used 'em more-or-less interchangeably since then, and I feel like I have enough information to make a decent review of each. I take my coffee with adulterants (milk & sugar), and I have not noticed any cup-taste being transferred to the coffee. Either of them will keep the coffee hot for the half-hour or so that I usually take to drink it. Both have handles that are only attached at the top: I notice that, when I put either into the car cupholder I usually use, the bottom of the handle extends below the top of the cupholder - so that if the handle WERE attached on the bottom, the mug would not fit into the cupholder correctly. I have not noticed any problem with looseness or weakness of the handle on either mug.
The top of the Thermos mug has a slider to cover the drinking hole; the top of the CopCo dies not. The sides of the CopCo fit more snugly into my cupholder, and have rubber traction inserts that help to hold it in place. That said, however, I have not noticed that either has problems with looseness or insecurity in the cupholder.
Neither is dishwasher-safe; the trapped air between the steel exterior and the plastic interior will expand in the dishwasher and possibly crack the plastic. The tops may be dishwasher-safe, but I have not risked them (hey, I'm washing the mug anyway; how tough is it to wash the top, too?). And the tops are NOT interchangeable one with the other.
I like the CopCo better, but for no good reason I can figure out (it may be that I just don't like the tumblehome sweep of the shape of the Thermos as much). So pay your money and take your choice.
the big joe July 1, 2008 Waicool i bought two of these because every other travel mug was too small or too big. this mug is just the right size for me holding a full 12 oz can of soda WITH ICE. this mug fits nicely in my auto cup holder.
a couple notes to consider. There are two drain holes on the bottom of the black plastic base. These leak out any condensation or moisture that gets in behind the stainless steel. the instructions that come with the mug say it is not dishwater safe but i ignored that, oh well, i guess i just voided my warranty. also, the rubber ribs are cool and touchy feely but they are set into slots cut into the stainless steel given moisture another way into the insulation cavity. i wouldn't try sticking this thing in the microwave.
what's up with the copco logo?
i will continue looking for the perfect 24oz mug.
24 oz thermo-mug June 25, 2008 Sherlock (Michigan) I was excited to find this 24 oz. covered thermo-mug that I can use for my morning coffee as it holds 2 mugs worth and is needed for my long daily commute. I did have a problem the first day, the rubber ring around the lid slid off & I had to put it back on. Also, the cover does not have a real tight fit, nor does it have any type of cap to cover the hole for the drinking spout. It does keep the coffee hot for quite a while and I LOVE the thin rim on the drinking side, this leads to a lot less drips!
