Zojirushi Stainless Steel Non-Stick Vacuum Travel Mug, 600 ml (1 Pint) - Black

𝐀𝐦𝐚𝐳𝐨𝐧 𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞: "Zojirushi Stainless Steel Non-Stick Vacuum Travel Mug, 600 ml (1 Pint) - Black" 𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥: SM-SA60-BA 𝐖𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭: 0.235 kg (9 oz) 𝐁𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧: 66 millimetre (2.6 inches) circular [own measurement] ★★★★★ (5/5) 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: never seen anything like it. It is almost as insulating as the huge Thermos work series flasks! Expect to burn your tongue 12h later! ★★★★★ (5/5) 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐞: leaking does not seem possible with this design, and I've bounced it around under many travel conditions, 𝑢𝑛𝑙𝑒𝑠𝑠 you misplace or somehow poke holes in the inner, silicone gaskets. ★★★★★ (5/5) 𝐎𝐧𝐞-𝐇𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠: all drinking operations can be done one-handed including unlocking and opening. ★★★★★ (5/5) 𝐓𝐨𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐓𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭: high insulation also means no touch temperature issues. ★★★★★ (5/5) 𝐓𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬: steel walls and no pointy cap exterior bits makes this tougher than most other travel flasks, despite the plastic cap. ★★★★★ (5/5) 𝐁𝐏𝐀-𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐬: most of the mug is stainless steel with an impressive inner, nonstick white coating (nothing like Teflon). The Stopper and the Lid Cover are polypropylene, the Lid Cover Gasket and Stopper Gasket are silicone and the exterior paint is Acrylic Resin. ★★★★☆ (4/5) 𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲: sleek, uniform, narrow design. It even seems to have two steel-lined holes in the cap, front and back, which could thread string loops. Comes with no loops, handle, nor carry case though. ★★★★☆ (4/5) 𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐞: relatively spill free, but the inside of the cap can get drops on your face when near the bottom of the drink. Tip: keep the lid back with your index finger. Do not burn your face with hot drinks by suddenly tipping the mug! ★★★★☆ (4/5) 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐂𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧: very easy to clean, though the cap has two, easily separated internal parts (a nipple-like gasket and the rest of the lid), so be careful to keep them together and preferably clean them separately. ★★★★☆ (4/5) 𝐒𝐦𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐞: no strange smells new. However, the silicone gaskets may retain some smell from smelly hot drinks after many uses. If you only use the bottle for the same drink, then its no problem, otherwise, you may want to invest in a special cleaner or another bottle for non-smelly drinks. ★★★★☆ (4/5) 𝐃𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲: paint at bottom slowly chips away. Given Japanese manufacturers' attention to detail, I am surprised at this paint flaw. ★★☆☆☆ (2/5) 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝-𝐒𝐚𝐟𝐞: the manual says, "Do not allow infants or small children to use this product ... Mishandling may cause injury or scalding.". This obviously depends on the child and the drink, but it's a sensible warning. I added an extra star because both a closed lid, or locked lid and its very strong insulation will prevent all but the most unfortunate or ingenious small child from hurting themselves simply by touching the bottle. ★☆☆☆☆ (1/5) 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐚𝐟𝐞: probably not due to the external paint durability and perhaps silicone gaskets. The manual says, "To protect the paint, print or stickers on the outside of the Main body: Do not use a dishwasher or dish-dryer. Do not boil to sanitize. Do not use bleach on the outside of the main Body." Other cleaning instructions from the manual: ► Do not clean with thinner, benzene, abrasive cleaners or other harsh cleaners. ► Do not use chlorine type bleach. ► Do not soak in water for an extended period of time. ► Wipe moisture off thoroughly to prevent water stains or rusting. According to the manual, Zojirushi sell a special cleaning detergent called "SB-ZA01" or "SB-ZA01E", specifically for removing coffee and tea stains. However, Zojirushi America on Youtube also state you can try any other non-bleach coffee pot cleaner as long as they are safe for stainless steel and nonstick coatings. If the base dimension stated at the top does not fit your car's travel mug holder, Zojirushi seem to do another product series called "SM-YAE" or "SM-YAF" which are specifically made for car holders. I do not have one to check their dimensions though and the dimensions are not mentioned in the manuals for some reason. Included image is the final page from the Zojirushi SM-SA/SM-SC Instruction Manual which has a handy Specifications table and other information. 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲: probably the best overall travel mug available; anything else and you must be looking for some very specific feature or style. I will be getting more as gifts.

These flasks are just brilliant! Small for a backpack as we like and keeps your drink ridiculously hot for a very long time!

This goes with me everywhere. I fill it with coffee in the morning and gradually sip it through the day, it has amazing heat retention, not just staying hot, but boiling hot. If you pour hot coffee into the flask when it is cold, it will retain its heat for around 6-7 hours, which is long enough for me. If you swill boiling water around to preheat the flask before adding the coffee you can add a few hours to this. I tend to drink straight from the flask rather than pour it into a mug, the lip is designed to be drunk from and it doesn't slosh if you drink while walking like some other flasks do. The cap and locking mechanism is well designed and as long as you lock the flask before putting it in a bag you can be confident it won't leak. The lock prevents the button to open the flask being accidentally pressed. I have dropped it numerous times and apart from a dent and a few scratches it has held up really well. It is not cheap, but I have paid for it many times over with the amount I have saved from not buying coffee at coffee shops. Highly recommend.

Got this flask because the good reviews. Item is very nice, like the lid because definitely it does not leak and keeps the drinks super hot. My only BUT is: I got the item because the despcription says it is stainless steel, and partially it is, except the internal coating seems to be Teflon... and I am not a fan of it. The ideal world for me is 100% stainless steel for the outside and the inside of the flask

I have been using this mug for a month now, and there are few things which I own which I have been as happy with. - The nonstick interior is easy to clean and my dish-brush can barely reach the bottom of the mug. - It keeps the coffee hot for a long time: I have opened mine after eight hour and found the coffee to be just on the right side of scalding. - - Some, justifiably, complain that it keeps the coffee too hot. If so, I have found that simply waiting around 10 minutes before putting the cap on addresses this issue. - The lid is tight and does not leak. - No annoying pitched noises due to air entering or exiting. - Elegant, clean, purposeful design. It simply is gorgeous. If you need, or think you need a travel mug then this is without doubt the mug to buy.

I'll start off by saying that I really want to give this 4.5 out of 5, but since you can't do that and I don't think it warrants a 4 then i'll give it the full 5. As a travel mug this is absolutely fantastic, it doesn't leak, the locking mechanism means it can be placed in a bag worry free and the heat retention is simply the best i've ever come across. I've made coffee, been sent away on a job and come back to it 10hrs later and it's still hot... not just warm, I mean hot. A handy tip is to make the coffee at the temperature you want to drink it at! Previous mugs I'd make hotter than usual to account for heat loss over time, there's just no need to do that with this mug unless you do plan on leaving the contents in there for 10hrs. My mouth was burnt the first couple of uses as I went to take a drink a couple of hours after making it and it's still just as hot. Even with the mug sitting with the lid open, it still stays hot a long time, I'm genuinely blown away by this mug. For that negative 0.5 star, I'd say the drinking mechanism could be a bit better. There's an air hole above the drinking hole but it really makes no difference, it's still a little struggle for liquid to come out as air tries to get in. It's not a major gripe but can be a little annoying and there's no way around it.

OMG !!! This is truly amazing. I LOVE the small one ; it is cute and esthetic. It has been 8 hours that my coffee is in the mug and still really hot. I love it, truly love it. If you are someone who likes sipping his coffee or tea during long hours, this mug is for you !

Cette bouteille est à double-paroi et garde le café chaud plusieurs heures. Son couvercle a un ressort pour éviter qu'il tombe sur le nez et un verrouillage empêche une ouverture accidentelle dans un sac. Il est complètement étanche et assez simple à nettoyer.

Un thermos, una tazza da viaggio se preferite, è forse uno degli oggetti più comodi e personali che possano esserci. Io viaggio molto, e consumo grandi quantità di caffè americano: spesso la colazione in auto, sul treno o su un mezzo pubblico mi permettono di risparmiare tempo, e preparare esattamente quello che voglio senza dovere fare file, code, attese nei negozi. Capirete dunque che ho una collezione di tazze, di cui moltissime adatte a viaggiare e tutte devono avere quattro caratteristiche imprescindibili: essere comode da trasportare molto resistenti tenere la temperatura del liquido esattamente uguale a quando l’ho versato ermetiche in maniera assoluta. Tra tazze doppia parete, in acciaio, con manico, senza, con chiusura a vite, a tappo, a pressione ne ho cambiate moltissime. E tutte avevano un difetto: quella perdeva caffè, l’altra non teneva la temperatura, quella sembrava fatta di burro. Fino a che non ho incontrato le tazze della Zojirushi che sembrano progettate da un team di pendolari con competenze aerospaziali. In particolare, dopo lunga disamina, ho scelto la tazza Zojirushi SM-SA 60, versione 600 ml, il loro cavallo di battaglia, nonchè thermos più longevo in assoluto. Sono disponibili anche altre dimensioni come la piccola 360 ml (che è diciamo una tazza da latte classica) e la media 480 ml, in diversi colori (nero, rosa, grigio, bronzo). Esteticamente molto gradevole, è realizzata in acciaio a doppia parete e internamente è rivestita in teflon. Il foro di apertura per versare i liquidi è stretto per maggiormente tenere il freddo o il caldo e la forma è snella e allungata. Temevo inizialmente fosse poco pratica per via dell’assenza di qualsiasi manico. Ho dovuto subito ricredermi, la forma è perfetta per le mani di uomini e donne e la vernice sembra quasi anti scivolo. Il test principe però è ovviamente quello del caldo/freddo: qui i risultati sono stati straordinari. Caricata con caffè lungo e ghiaccio alle 12.20 di un assolatissimo 8 agosto ha mantenuto il freddo (ma realmente freddo eh!) fino alle 23.00. Sul caldo ancora più sorprendente: partito alle 6, con 81 gradi misurati, ancora nel pomeriggio alle 16 la bevanda era tiepida. Prossimo test la tenuta stagna. Anche qui risultati eccellenti: la particolare forma del beccuccio, unito alle guarnizioni del tappo, alla chiusura ermetica a scatto con blocco di sicurezza e alla forma permettono di portarlo in borsa/zaino senza patemi d’animo. Non una goccia è caduta, ne un minimo di condensa si è formata. Questo test però mi ha fatto subito vedere quello che è forse l’unico difetto di questa tazza peraltro eccezionale: si stacca la vernice alla base. Non so se a causa dello sfregamento o a causa di un inadeguato processo industriale, ma è palesemente visibile dopo qualche uso. GIUDIZIO FINALE La tazza è senza dubbio la migliore che abbia mai posseduto, è veramente la Ferrari dei thermos da viaggio. Il prezzo è adeguato (intorno ai 30€) e vi assicurerà anni di utilizzo fedele. Avessi dovuto fare delle modifiche avrei senza dubbio scelto un altro processo di verniciatura e avrei forse allargato leggermente il foro per versare i liquidi. A parte questo il livello è stellare, comprate ad occhi chiusi.

Me encanto no sale para nada el liquido, no te quema la mano por mas hirviendo que este el agia o cafe y sobre todo, dura como 10 hrs caliente o mas el liquido...... Estoy feliz ademas esta muy fino y chingon en negro.

Keeps the temperature down for a long time.
