Can't see the top of the mug??? Is the cap a "flip-top?" and does it leak when not in the upright position (e.g. upside down/laying sideways).

It is not a flip top & it will leak if it is not upright. The hole straw or just drinking is open.

There is a little drinking slit and that is never closed - so it would leak if turned on it's side or upside down.

It's not a flip top. It has a hole at the top to allow you to drink the beverage. You could not lay it on it's side.

No the cap is not a flip-top, and it will leak if the mug tips over. The top has a hole in it for drinking, but in that area the lip of the cap is taller to help keep the liquid from easily spilling if it is slightly tilted. If you need something spill proof then it's not your mug, but it is a awesome mug if you need one. I hope this helps.

I love these mugs! Yes, if it was laying upside down, etc., it will definitely leak. It's i tended to be upright because there's an opening from which you drink that can't be closed.I was totally in love with the Big Bubba mugs because you can close off the drinking opening. B-u-t when you use on the road and taking a sip it dribbles all over you!!!

Good question: I have never turned my filled thermos upside down to make sure it does not leak, so I cannot give you a definitive answer. You might try the company's Internet and ask if it is indeed spill proof, etc. I now intend to check all three of my thermos containers when I wash them to determine how they stand up to rough/normal use. But it will be a few days before I take the time, so maybe you can check back with me?

The mug itself does NOT leak, is great. The lid for the mug....... YES, it is not to be trusted whatsoever.

No, it 'POPs' on and off. It forms a good seal so no coffee leaks out as you drink. The top is also made of a HARD plastic. I LOVE the travel mug because it won't fall over while driving. Put it on the dash and leave it and not have to worry.

It won't leak if you don't overfill it. If you fill it too full when you close it the lid will leak the small amount that was outside the inner plug when it's closed, but as soon as that is gone it doesn't leak. This mug is great!

Lid snaps on tight. There are 2 openings on lid - one in middle of lid is a hole for straws and the other near side of lid is for drinking out of. If it tips over, yes it will spill some. I don't believe it's designed to be a travel mug.

Yes, but that completely defeats the purpose of buying this mug. There is a valve that twists, and if that is undone, you could put a straw in, but it's gonna leak bad!

I've bought two of these. The first one, I was not able to. The second one didn't really have that problem.My experiences from the first one was that no matter how tightly I screwed the cap on, it would still leak if the bottle was on its side. I never had an issue from either of mine leaking from the cap when it was right-side up. If it leaks from that position, you probably should get a new one because that's not supposed to happen whatsoever.

You can order a flip top lid from sunstea.com for $3.99 plus shipping. I don't know why they don't offer it with this product from the start. The flip top lid has a sort of tube or spout that you drink from. There is no second air hole to eliminate the vacuum effect, so drinking from it is awkward. I would have been better off sticking with my old system of a Thermos travel mug and a long handled tea ball infuser.

it flips back on the top and the hole is large enough for a strawhowever i cannot recommend this mug. see my comments under 1 stsr reviews.i am waiting for my e replacement from thermos. works for a few months and then loses the vacuum.at which point it no longer keeps the content s at temp.

yes it does. The thing you see sticking up on top of the jug is the handle and the flip spout combined. I don't know why they don't show a side view of the jug in the picture so one could see the handle. It is a great jug if you know the secret to keep it from leaking. First open the spout all the way pushing down on it. It will feel like the lid just slightly deforms. I don't know why but this makes it much easier, at least with mine, to screw the lid on. It must deform the lid to a better shape so it goes on easier. Next screw the lid on tight, and then when you drink, open the spout the same way. Voila, no leaks.

On both the 12 and 20 oz. mugs I bought, the lid flips up on a hinge and locks open so it does not interfere while you are drinking. Then when you are done, you simply flip it down and close it securely.

yes the top is a screw on. about 1 full revolution to tight. the lid is sealed by an o-ring. Never had a leak from the lid once sealed, however if you over fill and screw on the lid, some of your drink is above the o-ring and will leak down your front on your first drink.just don't over fill, or if you do hold the cup over the sink until the trapped drink has drained.

Your mug is definitely defective. It should not leak at all. I would contact Amazon customer service describing the defect and ask them what to do. If they cannot help, contact Contigo customer service by logging onto their website.

No, I have not had any leaking, I have washed it many times, even put it in the dishwasher, but no leaking, it must be a defective mug, sorry.

You have to unscrew the lid. It's not an ideal mug if you want it simply to use while commuting. If, however, you want a mug that can be tossed about while totally full and never spill a drop, this is the mug for you.

Ironically, I just tried to fit mine under my Keurig this morning and it did not fit. Without the cap, the 16 oz. mug is 8" tall.
