when filled with a hot drink, is the cup hot to the tough or does it stay cool on the outside?

It stays cool until the seams start leaking like mine did. I returned mine & purchased a different brand for a few dollars more. Worth every penny! Cups are useless if they can't hold water.

No the exterior is always dry and room temp. I drink iced coffee often and it keeps it cold and my hands dry. Love this mug especially for the price.

...Just like any ceramic cup, it gets hot after being microwaved for over 1:15. But the cup will cool quickly but you drink will retain it's heat for awhile. I think you'll love it and this cup cup will definitely attract attention. I hope this help you. Thanks for asking.

It depends on how hot your cup holder is. If you can put hot liquids in it, it must hold up to that heat. However, I do have a double walled glass cup and the same insulation that holds the heat in, keeps the heat out, so the mug holder isn't all that helpful.

I've only used the cup for cold beverages. I would contact the manufacturer concerning its ability to withstand a hot beverage. I love the metal contigo coffee/tea (travel) containers.

It is not hot to the touch when it has hot liquid in it. Slightly warm to the touch is all. Best travel mugs we've found. Keeps things hot for hours and keeps spills to a minimum with the push-to-open system. Highly recommend. Great gift for commuters!

If the food is super hot it will keep it warm for that long. Also the cup should be washed in boiling water and kept in a dry place.

It does come off - it's just a paper band with the product info. This cup is great! If you rinse with hot water before adding your coffee - the coffee will stay hot most of the day! I have had it sitting from 7 until 5 on my desk - picked it up and still had very warm coffee... Best cup ever!

The beverage stays very hot for 2-3 hours. It will begin to cool down, but is still quite warm after the 3 hours. If you keep the lid in the closed position, it will stay very warm for a couple more hours.

Hi, Yes it does feel warm on the outside, but just mildly warm. Nothing that I worry about. My beverage is HOT for about five hours and then warm until I go home around 7pm. Never is it cold. As the beverage is very hot, the outside warmth stays for a couple hours and then goes away.

It keeps coffee hot hot longer than any other thermal cup I have bought. It stays hot for at least a couple of hours.

It does get hot and could melt a plastic cup. I use an esspresso metal cup from GSI that is nicely insulated and works great.

Not overly at all! It obviously gets somewhat hot, but it's a very thick glass. This set is amazingly sturdy and well made! AWESOME! No complaints!

Couple of hours. Of course coffee gets cooler over time - still warm after 3 hours but not hot. Mug is well insulated and works about the same as other double-walled aluminum insulated 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.

Also it keeps coffee very hot down to the last sip ... Just be careful not to leave it on and forget and set something on top of it

Debbie, Truthfully, I purchased this for a gift. The person I gave it to said it keeps her coffee very hot on the way to work, she lives 50 minutes from work. She also stated when she arrives the coffee/drink is still as hot as when she filled it. Hope this helps, Spencer
