Product Description
DUAL PURPOSE STAINLESS STEEL MUG,
Amazon.com Review
Virtually unbreakable, this lightweight, vacuum-insulated thermos travels to work or the beach or other recreation spot. On arrival, and for hours afterward, coffee, tea, or soup will still be hot. Or lemonade, pasta salad, or a sports drink will still be chilled. It transports baby food, too. Compact (3-1/2 inches in diameter by 6-1/2 inches high) and handsome, the thermos has a satin-finish exterior and tough, nonslip, black plastic top, bottom, and L-shaped handle. Fine threading ensures the twist top seals tightly. A full-diameter mouth provides handy access to foods, and the smooth interior cleans with sponge or cloth. Preheating or prechilling with hot or cold water is recommended. --Fred Brack

 Nissan Cup February 17, 2008

Excellent cup, keeps anything hot for hours. I still have the original version of this cup its 20 years old and I still use it. This is by far the best cup made.
Best mug ever September 16, 2006

AARRRGH! I lost my Nissin mug after thirteen years of perfect service. Dents and dings new O-ring and all, it's gone. I wish I had a picture of it to show the abuse that it withstood, and it kept coffee warm for hours. Now I have to get a new one. For those of us that like things to serve their purpose and don't care about fancy flashy lights and gizmos, this is the best mug ever.
Great, long-lasting product December 30, 2005

After getting fed up with cheap travel mugs (leaky tops, limited ability to keep coffee hot), I splurged on the Nissan mug several years ago. Hundreds and hundreds of commutes later, I can't say enough good things about it. The only days I'm disappointed are the ones I forget my Nissan mug at work and need to make due with a lesser mug. It is true that the base does not fit in most car drink-holders; not a problem for me, but could be a deal-breaker for some. Also, I don't use the sipper lid, so I can't speak for that. But if you're looking for a rugged, leak-proof container to transport your 15.9 oz of java and keep it hot for hours, you won't do much better than this item.
can't leave well enough alone August 29, 2005

I can't leave well enough alone so I cut the handle off my mug, cleaned up the edge, machined a steel caribiner flat and silver soldered it on. I also covered it with safety orange reflective tape and I can always find my mug. No one else would want it. It's been great for almost 10 years now.
As for the problem of the drinking lid becoming a dribble cup, I took the o-ring out of the lid and noticed one side is flat and the other is curved. The curved side is normally out but I found that if I flipped it over so the flat side is out it quit leaking.
 A very expensive dribble glass July 19, 2005

I bought this mug about three weeks ago, despite the reviews I'd read which mentioned that it leaked. I decided to buy it anyway, because of the size and that every review mentioned how it kept cofee and food hot or cold, as desired. The latter is true: I used it every morning and on my 45 minute commute, the coffee stayed as hot as if I had just poured it. It also did not fit well in my car cup holder, a complaint I had also read in other reviews.
The reason I will no longer be using this mug for coffee is because on two different mornings I arrived at work with large brown coffee stains on my white shirt! Embarrassing to go out in public like that, and really inconvenient to return home to change clothes. I would hope that someone at Nissan is reading these reviews and will change the apparent design flaws in this otherwise great mug. I'm only going to be using it for baby food from now on.
