Turns out my seal does leak. Am returning this one and trying another.

Just make sure that when you go to drink your bottom lip makes contact with the mug!

Really? I have three of them now, use them daily and have never had a problem.. The only thing I've noticed (and they warn you about) is to hold it away from you when you first push the button (because of the pressure build up) - other than that, they are by far the best mugs I've ever owned or used

You do have to push the button up to unlock it, but then, if you haven't done this, nothing would come out. In other words, I don't know.

I push in the release button before i tilt to take a drink, this releases the pursuer that is built up from steam. Hope this helps.

I have never had liquid spill out of this cup,I use it on my bicycle, put your mouth over the spout just before pushing button in to open it, making the seal, then drink, what could be easier??
1006014
I've never had this problem. The spout is a small opening and the cup seal is very tight. In fact, I have the mug beside me right now. No issues here.

Just press the "button" before tipping the drink back. Then release it before pulling away from your mouth.

Also had a slow leak after 1 day - patched it, but has another . Also filled with sand and perhaps some roughage got in without knowing . Perhaps also a manufacturers fault in some as my second one is OKMarlene

No doubt, the seals are snug. I have to bear-hug mine and work it from both ends back and forth using the light gay clips until it lifts. I am ok with this if it means no leaks!

The clear plastic insert attached to the bottle is supposed to fit inside the bottle lid. I have two bottles and when lid is screwed on there is no leakage on either one. I wonder if there is a defect with the clear plastic insert or the lid. You might check to see if the clear plastic is inserted rightly into the bottle. I have tested mine a few times after reading this, and mine are both sealed tight when lid is screwed on. You might contact seller. I am very pleased with my product.

I have never had problems with a leak and have been using mine daily in the winter for a number of years. Sounds like a defect.

I haven't had any problems with my Steamboy leaking, I've been using for a month now. I noticed that two black seals are supposed to be on the cap (extras were included attached to the instruction manual.) I would check to see if they are on and the cap is screwed on tightly. Sounds like you both got a defective product and I would return them.

My bottle is leaking because there is no rubber seal on the inside of the cap. I am currently looking for a new lid or I will go buy a rubber insert to keep it from leaking.

Yes it does leak. I will not waste my money on this product. They over sale the ptoduct.

Obviously, it is an issue based on others responses. However, I have purchased 2 of these same bottles and have not had any leakage problems. I did read a review once from an individual who suggested that making sure the back hinge of the cap is lined up with the measurement marks of the bottle, somehow, prevents it from leaking. I always place the cap on in that manner and believe that to be true--as strange as it sounds. See if that works.

Hello, The one that I got was defective and had a leak. I was disappointed. try it if you come across a problem then just return it.

Maybe they had a bad batch..... you can return it if the one you get leaks. Mine was great.

Other than the water left over in the grooves from either rinsing or over filling it and then closing it I haven't had a problem with it leaking. It could also be the rubber attachment, I took nine off right when I got it because it was irritating me.

Had to return it as it started to leak all over but the return was handled well and the refund done very quickly. I ordered another one just different brand. I think I might have just gotten a lemon.

Sometimes I have this problem if I don't completely release all of the pressure. If that doesn't work, use a little oil and run it as close to the seal as possible.

Hi, I had the same problem for a few days.....finally I thought and thought and realized that the process works on vacuum seal. I majorly tightened the lid and the thing stopped overflowing! They should tell us that. Hope yours works well.

If the rubber sealant is tightly in place inside the lid, then there is no leaking at all. I filled it with water to test and it did not leak.

Make sure you turn on the water slowly. If you pop it on full blast it may not seal. It should leak when water first hits it, then seal it close and be leak free. If not, you may have simply gotten a bad one and need to return and replace it.
