    Hey guys, anyone used one of these Cuisipro cups over a period of time? Ive had a Tupperware travel mug for 6 months now and it looks and feels really good, but I can taste the plastic in it. Anyone know whether this one affects the taste much? As Im bringing a coffee from home each day now I want to get as good a travel mug as I can. Digging around the forum this one seems to be one of the better ones.
    Using the Cuisipro travel cup after several months I have to report that they are a great little invention

    Mainly used for when I make coffee for the wife to be consumed at work

    She reports that its as good as having it at home & with no plastic smell or taste

    Once one of our 3 units was dropped and the white outer piece came apart from inner black insert and I had to glue it back together and its still in use regularly

    Its also easy to sip and close while driving for both hot or cold drinks

    And the best part of all its easy to clean & in the case of the top lid assembly it pulls apart for a better clean

    Incasa, stainless twin wall, single cup plunger...

    Fits right in my bag for work. All I need is hot water.

    one very important question for me would be:


    [edit] Does the mug have any kind of plastic smell? [/edit]
    My thoughts were the same as you

    New out of the box & after a rinse I did not smell a thing
    I asked my daughter to test for a second opinion and she said I cant smell anything.

    But I will have to report back to you with a report/review after a few uses

    Thought I would chime in here, we sell these at my work,

    A couple of other points that make them really popular sellers

    . dishwasher and microwave safe
    . 25 year warranty ( no more blown transmissions )

    My Wife needs one of these - made her a tall long Mac last week, she drove off with it in the cupholder and a few minutes later she called me.

    Honey....ahmm.. the coffee spilt - yes the whole lot !!....Its dessappeard down near the gear lever. I dont know where its gone. Will the car be OK ??"

    Not happy - I had to disassemble the whole centre console to clean out the coffee from around the gear lever.

    I later rang her and said - "honey its pretty serious. We need a whole new transmission

    She hasnt spilt a drop since.

    It doesnt look as tho its insulated, is it? Does it insulate as well as the thermos?

    Im looking out for something to replace the tall thermos mug plus the tall plastic mixer mug combination I use on (motorcycle) camping trips for hot cocoa.

    The coffees taken care of with small glasses (from the ibrik & moka pot). Theres no effective weight or size penalty with glass & the taste is clean.

    The insulated cup keeps cocoa & tea warmer in winter, but the lids not tight. The cuisiepro lid looks tight. Maybe a neoprene sleeve? A space blanket mod? With a swizzle stick hand mixer? Youve got me thinking again.

    Ive also found that the japanese-made stainless steel vacuum flasks (zojirushi & tiger brands, at least) actually keep liquids warmer longer than others - 24 hours easily and hot 12 hours.

    Is that a midget in the video? makes it look massive
    As I look at one now its not that big
    A little tall perhaps

    A family friend left it here when visiting
    So I can vouch that it works well

    Not sure about the name? Cuisiepro..? Sounds like a stomach settler! ;D

    Looks interesting.

    Height (and therefore a re-pour) is just one of those things with travel mugs.
    In order for it to accomodate a large enough coffee to make travelling with it worthwhile, it really needs to be fairly tall and tapered.
    If you get a shorter cup with similar capacity, the girth would most likely mean it wont fit in the cup holder in the car etc.

    I use a tall travel mug every morning that is too high for the machine. I just do the double shot into a demitasse and upend it to the mug when ready. Works fine for me.
