Would the RIM of this stainless steel mug be too hot for your lips with the hot coffee?

No. It does get warm but not really hot. I have had no trouble with drinking hot tea from this mug.
1465195
I have not found that to be the case at all. Very nice mug that won't tip over!
1465196
No, it's not and this is a great cup! Rim is not even warm and I use it everyday, keeps my coffee warm and doesn't spill over.
1465197
Nope, like others have posted, the rim stays very cool compared to the hot liquid in the body of the mug.

Not at all. However due to its geometry, tilting this cup to drink takes a bit getting used to due to the light liquid pressure from a smaller volume at the short vertical top section. Also it does not seem to maintain temperature as long as my previous thermoplastic cup. But for durability and spill avoidance, it can't be beat. It is highly unlikely to accidentally knock this cup over when reaching for it without looking.

It gets too hot to touch. It would be up to you to try it. If the glass cup were Pyrex I would try it

Not at all. I've had this mug for about 4 months now, and it's been nothing but absolutely great. If you put hot stuff in there, you can expect it to stay hot, without affecting the temperature of the outside of the bottle. In fact, you can just consider the outside of the bottle to be almost completely isolated from the inside, as the isolation is done extremely well.

Yes. It's almost too hot to handle after being washed with hot water let alone filled with piping hot coffee. It isn't insulated.

The mug will hold up to heat and the handle remains cool. However if your knuckles touch the outside while holding, it'll burn. I tested with spiced cider.

My coffee tended to take on a plastic taste to it after it sat for a bit. Others noticed it, so I then knew it was not just me. It really does get incredibly hot.

I've never had that issue, but if you make a large helping of coffee, I suppose you could. I would use a tall, not so wide, mug in that case. Maybe one of those travel mugs.

Absolutely not. The exterior stays cool even with boiling water. Hot drinks stay that way for longer than with a ceramic mug though, so be aware of that.

I did not have that problem. My problem with this is that it did not keep the coffee hot and it shut itself right away. I consider it not a great carafe that did not have the insulation properties to keep the coffee only "warm." Poor quality control so I returned it before the end of 30 days.

No. That has to be the only drawback to this mug. It has to be the most durable mug ever. My husband takes this mug with him everyday on his morning walk (sometimes the temp is below freezing) and his coffee stays hot.

It depends. There are two sizes of these mugs. The smaller one (which I believe this is) has a bottom width of about 2-and-a-half inches. The larger one is about 3-and-a-half inches. These are metal cups - and if sat on a 'warmer' may cause burns to your fingers as well as your mouth - because heat will be conducted into the handles, as well as the body of the cup. Be safe.

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.

I've been drinking coffee out of it--hot, hot, hot! I put it in the mic to heat it up, and it is fine. It is ceramic, so treat it like any ceramic mug, and it will be fine. :)

I have the Aquaovo version of this tumbler and I found that as long as you don't fill it to the top where the inner and outer glass are fused, it doesn't get too hot. It's still warmer to the touch than a stainless steel thermos but it's not uncomfortable. Just don't fill above the filter level.

John this cup will do anything your imagination will ask of it. I suggest that you cool your coffee before leaving home cause it will burn your tongue if your sleeping

It's plastic so I wouldn't. They make a stainless steel version which would be better for hot liquids.

Stainless is on the inside, prob. why it keeps the coffee so hot for so long,right?
