Can the lid double as a coaster for the mug rather than a bag caddy?

I wouldn't use the lid as a coaster because of moisture accumulation from the hot cup and the cup possible sliding off. You also need a place for the tea bag. I like to use the well in the lid for my tea bag then place the top, flat side down, over the cup to keep the tea it hot. Works well this way.

No, the lid is a plastic lid, unless Amazon sells an alternative lid, then no. Hope this helps.

It was not design for a lid, more likely you can not use a straw with this mug

No, it is unstable to hold beverage. But works for Laptop with track. No room for mouse or pad

The lids are interchangeable. Using the steeping basket in the tall basket might make too weak a tea

The inner ring has an outside diameter of 2.75 inches, so it would not fit. That's a tiny mug! :)

If using a traditional style coffee mug then no. Cup holder is perfect for a water bottle or similarly shaped thermal cup.

Yes, you can! I just checked it out... I could easily fit one of the Starbucks reusable straws in there, and I'm sure an even larger one would work just fine.

No, this is not an option with this can. They sell similarly shaped cans with lids, though. The purpose of this can is to always stand open. I use it as my laundry hamper. It is perfect. Holds a standard laundry bag under the lid. I wan another for my kitchen, it is very heavy duty and heavy, won't get knocked over or dinged easily, I can tell you that....

Possible, but not optimal. There is a small hole meant for pouring contents into the lid or another cup.

Yeah, that would fit. Not something tall like a thermos but a mug would fit fine.

Yes. The bottom area where the normal cup sits pulls out to accommodate a travel mug. Nice feature.T

Yes, you can. Didn't think of that, but the ottoman could serve as a temporary coffee table that way. The inside is lined in black fabric, so I would put coasters or something else there to keep it from getting wet or soiled.

I actually took a standard coffee mug and tried it on the rack... works fine! and looks pretty cute. I'd say you might not like trying to hang something with a smaller handle on it (like a tea cup?) but the standard coffee cup worked well on the hook.

Just depends on how much water you pour in above the mug. Could use a regular mug or the travel sizes...it's up to you. The amount of coffee added can be adjusted as well

I was intrigued by this question so I just now checked with several mugs I have. Technically, yes it does, but the "S" hooks are slightly too narrow for the typical coffee mug handles, so the mug ends up hanging awkwardly. So: yes, but I wouldn't be comfortable doing it. Of course you could widen the bell of the hooks, but they are very stiff and strong (designed to take the weight of a large cast-iron pan), so it would take some work (and a good vise).

No! The lid has a hole that does not close (it's a screw on top, but you can't seal the actual opening where you drink from). Even if you did find a plug for it, I wouldn't trust the lid to stay put, and this is a glass tumbler, so it is VERY fragile. I accidentally dropped the lid and it shattered, so I had to buy a second one already. You need to be VERY careful with this item, but it is extremely elegant and for that reason I love it regardless :)
