I have used it for either Hot Tea or Coffee, unfortunately someone dropped mine and it broke :( I really enjoyed it while I had it, but it's kind of like an adult sippy-cup.

You can use it for any hot (or cold) liquid, tea works just fine. With tea I do find that I usually need to let the tea cool down a bit with the lid off before I can drink it but once it's to the right temperature it will keep the temperature hot for a decent amount of time with the lid back on.

Well my mug holds about 2 1/2 cups give or take and the tea maker was perfect for it. I wouldn't fill the tea maker and use a small mug. Just a good (normal) sized mug does the trick :)

Yes, you can, but to be honest, if you want to use it for coffee again, I would use a completely separate pot for the tea. I have 2 - one for coffee, and one for tea.

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.

Yes I use these for coffee and hot tea daily. Wonderful mugs! I am glad I bought them.

I only used it to mix a powdered drink with warm water. I never used it for hot coffee. Be careful to hold down the top when blending as it does not stay on. Good luck.

You can get hot water for your cup and put your tea bag in it. It works great, it gets a lot of usage at our office at work.

That's what we use it for. After writing the review, I called customer service and requested an exchange, hoping that this one was defective. I post a new review when I receive and try the new one. As it is, you can make tea. If you add a lot of cold creamer to your coffee, you may find that it is not hot enough.

Yes I use it for tea or coffee. It works really well and keeps liquids hot or cold for about 3 hours.

Mine has only been used for tea. It is a very sturdy mug and I wouldn't think there would be a problem if it were used for coffee. If you are worried about coffee stains, I think tea stains are as bad- and so far, I haven't had a problem with tea stains. Hope that helps!

You can but I don't think drinking hot liquids would be a good idea because the chemicals might leach out, plus it smells horrible when heated . I would not recommend it for drinking mugs only for decorative ones.

You can drink directly from the mug, but it is easier to pour it into a cup if the contents are extremely hot.

Yes the cup can be used in the micowave but and the handle does not get hot. The finish is smooth. What this mug is not is hollow stoneware that chips with the slightest ding. LOVE LOVE LOVE these mugs.

I'm not sure. It is made of hard inflexible plastic. I guess you could, but I would look into a cuppow for hot drinks.

I don't think you can use it for coffee, it boils quickly and is used for tea.

I bought this mug and I do like it. As to the boiling point, I'll say this, it is hot enough to burn you tongue. I don't keep it pluged in any longer than necessary. I do recommend this mug. The thermostat on the side will tell you the range of temp.

Yes, although you would want to be careful of how hot since the entire cup will becomes the temperature of what ever is inside of it (unlike a coffee mug wich acts as an insulator). The handle woun't get very hot though.
