Does the lid have a plastic taste to it?

no this mug is very easy to use and I get no coffee drips from it while I drive. My only problem with it is it does not keep coffee hot very long

No it does not. It is made of a harder plastic that does not seen to emit any taste at all. The one thing that you want to remember to do is to, be sure to clean the seals and port in the top with good hot water to remove any residue of what ever you might have had in it. That done, it will last forever. I have had mine for about 3 to 4 years and it is still as good as the day I got it. That care of it, and it will that care of you. Enjoy !

My husband loves the cup. No it doesn't taste like plastic. He uses it every day when driving to work.

Not really... All I taste is the coffee. But I love the push-button control. No flipping tabs everywhere!

Plastic, I did not notice any plastic taste to my boiled water. Pot works very well and I would recommend it for international travel.

I have never noticed a metal taste. I usually put it in a glass jar of water with a little ice. I like the feel of drinking out of a cold straw!

The lid is almost all plastic. The clear part appears to be acrylic and the threading that screws into the glass is plastic. There's a stainless veneer around the outer ring of the lid, as well as the top around the acrylic. Some other commenters reported smelling or tasting the plastic in their water, but I haven't detected it at all.

The straw part is a type of plastic. The mouth piece I believe to be silicon. I am pretty picky about taste and I have not noticed any strange taste from the plastic. It's a great water bottle.

The lid is plastic but the body is stainless steel. When in use water does splash up to the inside of the lid so I use withou lid on. Just have to be careful to watch when lid is off and make sure it turns off. I just did not like the smell of the plastic-that's why I use without the lid.

We have never had any problems with a plastic taste from our kettle. However, one suggestion would be to clean it out with a strong vinegar solution and then give it a good rinse with dish soap. This is not an official "factory" suggestion, just something I have done in the past and works very well with coffee machines.

Aryeh,This bag does not give a plastic or chemical taste. I usually put mine in the refrigerator the night before I go out hunting. You should drain the tube after a days use or before you store it. Good luck.

No. The lid is literally a flexible rubber with a small hole to drink through. Very basic.

Yes there is plastic parts, the basket and the column itself is plastic as well as the inside of the Percolator. It does touch the liquid, but I can tell you that you can't taste any plastic taste and that it for the money is a good Percolator. If you decide to buy it, make sure you buy the little disk filters from Melitta. It say's you don't need them, but it work better with the little flat disk filters. Hope this was of help to you.

No, the lid is all plastic. It does seal really well and keeps coffee hot for at least two hours.

There is no plastic taste now. However the machine stopped working after 3 months. The carafe lid was poorly made and held water inside. I would not buy this appliance knowing what I now know about it.

No. It stinks of plastic. This model stinks more than the cheaper Mr. Coffee models, which is surprising. I sent it back.

No there is no weird metal or plastic smell or taste. I purchased it for my tea addicts and critics at work and we all love it. It boils the water to almost perfection according to what tea we are brewing. I really recommend it.

No, I've never experienced a plastic taste to the water with the Design For Living Tritan Infuser.
