It's hard to tell from the pictures/descriptions, but does the black "lever lock" lid move down through the container as coffee/whatever is removed?

yes, which makes it very air tight. With the lever lock lid, when you move it down, it will expel all air and make the container vacuumed. My husband and I like this can very much.

Yes, it goes down as far as you need and pushes the air out. I'm happy with it.

Check out the demo video on the manufacturer's website. Before I bought one, I was a little confused about how it worked based on people's descriptions until I saw Planetary Design's demo video. It's basically a black rubbery-edged plunger with air vents that are open when the handle is up. Air is pushed out of the container through the vents when you push down the plunger, and the vents close to an airtight seal when you push down the handle to lock it in place. Hope that helps.

Goes down as far as you push it (to the surface of the coffee beans, or whatever you're storing in there). Then you flip the lever down, to seal.

Yes the lid closes. Then you just lift up and lock in place to retrieve drinks I love it it's awesome!! Also has drain plug

I've had this happen on occasion. If some grounds get stuck in the lid opening, it blocks the coffee from entering. Just a bit of debris can make the little moving flap stick in the closed position. Rinse out the lid under running water and shake it to make sure you can hear the flap move. As I've noted before, this coffeemaker can be very temperamental because it has a number of little parts that, if even slightly blocked, can mess up the whole operation.

The lid screws on, then there is a button on top you push to open the hole to drink. You don't have to use that feature, you can just keep it open the whole time. I am actually using it now. You have to take the tray out on the mini Keurig to fit, but no big deal. I like it..I ordered 3. Wish it would keep it hot ,hot,hot the whole time....but it might be me.... I want my tea and coffee scalding hot. Does keep it hotter than a regular up, though.

It's a press down lid but works very well. It's my husbands favorite mug over his screw top thermos. Keeps his coffee hot.

It doesn't really "lock" open. One just needs to pull the lid down to close it.

It's got a "bayonet" lock. The type where you twist is slightly to lock it. It doesn't work real well, but having the lid come off has never been a problem.

Yes it does. But I don't use it because the coffee is prone to "sludge" in the bottom.

I have order this twice (lost the first one) and while it does have a metal pin going through it, I just remove the plastic lock itself. The push button is more than enough to keep the lid from opening accidentally.

No, it is a snap and twist design. There is a channel on the container and two raised dimples on the lid, the dimples go down into the channel, turns to lock in place.

It's attached to the lid of the mug which screws off for cleaning (and separates into 2 pieces plus a silicone ring/gasket). With one hand you can press the button and the lid springs up and back and stays there until you close it. It won't flip down while you drink. I saw some reviewers complain that some of the lid/latch mechanism interferes with drinking but I have not found this to be the case. I love this mug. If you want hot liquids to stay very hot for several hours, this is for you. It's beautifully designed. My only complaint is that it has a high center of gravity. So it you have a big dog with tail that sweeps items off a coffee table... then maybe another mug :-)

No, the entire lid does not lock down. However, the individual sides do. I would not hesitate to transport this--the seal on this lid is great and I would not fear spillage unless the pot itself was over full.

Yes, it stays where you put it. Never had any problem with it moving when I remove or replace the carafe.

I've gotten used to opening/closing. There are little marks to guide you, but I don't know why they had to make it so difficult :). I like this for my morning coffee (I take it too Starbucks and they warm and fill it) but it did take a little getting used to.

Yes it opens and close with no problem with k-cups in there with unit on top. i dont move the whole unit.
1572112
Is it switched to the carafe? And on the k cup the lever needs to be pushed down

The lid screws on and has a tab the tightly snaps shut when you are not sipping on your coffee. I have three of these mugs
