Is it Too hot for a tumbler?

This gets hot enough to touch but doesnt heat my mug well. I would not put a plastic tumbler on it, it will melt it for sure.

I actually bought them for gifts & specifically bought the kind without an automatic shutoff so a drink would stay hot till they turned them off. I am told they keep a ceramic mug filled with coffee very hot. If your tumbler is not heat resistant... like plastic or even some glass, I would think this item would not be for you. If you want something that keeps a drink HOT, use a different drink container because this item works really well. Hope that helps.

No. The brew lid for the tumbler has to engage with the safety interlock to let the hot watet come down. Unless you can figure a way around this, you have to use the supplied tumbler and special, flat brreing lid, which is not the one you drink from.

I would think something would have to be heated to the extreme before it could cause damage like melting. I have hot coffee on mine everyday and have no problems.

No, no. the cup is not heat friendly to the hand. Not as well insulated as the storge cups

I wouldn't say it is super hot - not hot enough to burn yourself with - but hot enough not to cool off the coffee.

I think I know what you mean....where the mug gets scalding, and not because the liquid is hot? In my experience, the liquid gets the mug warm, not that the mug gets hot from being microwaved. The handle is still quite comfortable, and the outside is warm but not ragingly hot.

It's an insulated tumbler - so I am not sure if using a cup "warmer" would be a very efficient way to keep a beverage warm - that being said - it is a plastic cup and if the warmer gets very hot - may damage the cup...

Yes, you can . . . but, if it's a hot (and even an immsely cold) drink, like coffee, ytou might want to be very careful. I have no idea how quickly liquid will flow out of this tumbler without the silicone lid on. Plus, metal's a good conductor of heat AND of cold -- as ye olde physics classes have taught us yes -- so you might not want to give your lips a scalding surprise. Use the silicone lid for its ultimate coolness is my advice. Not a stupid question at all Hyok.

i agree with you, it might be hot at first, then it cools down much to fast, they need to make the temp higher on these machines. coffee should be enjoyed hot over time, and not chugged down like a shot and a beer before nascar party.

I would say just cold beverages, as a hot liquid would make the entire mug too hot to touch or drink out of.

I would not since it has a "straw". If you are just looking for something to keep it hot, it would do that.

It is single wall glass so would be as hot as the drink rather quickly - use a glove! ???

Hot??, that's subjective. If unopened it would keep hot liquid fairly warm. Best you can expect, subject to outside temperature

The metal transfers heat very quickly. It's not insulated and you could easily burn yourself trying to hold the cup. Additionally if the plastic top is exposed to high enough heat for long enough it could deform. I would suggest against using it for hot drinks.

I've only used it for cold drinks. It's heavy stainless steel so would assume it would keep hot too.

It's probably too warm for a drink if you want the drink to stay cold. You could set it there for a minute, but not a place to leave it.

It does get hot and could melt a plastic cup. I use an esspresso metal cup from GSI that is nicely insulated and works great.
