Does the lid close tightly shut to keep the coffee hot between pours?

The lid does not have a seal, but it do set nicely so the coffee will stay warm for 1 to 1.5 hours.

It shuts fairly tight, but you can pour coffee through the lid, even in the closed position. I have kept my coffee drinkably hot for about 1 1/2 hours. Much better than the old glass one this replaced. I do pre-heat my press with hot water before brewing the coffee - it helps with heat retention.

I don't seem to have that problem. I do close the lid by snapping two adjacent sides shut at the same time.

The lid does screw all the way off No, I cannot tell how much coffee is left unless I take the lid off to look inside. I have not found a way to separate the top part of the maker itself from the rest but I run vinegar through it on occasion. none of the bad review problems have happened to me and it is working just fine. I set my coffee to brew at 5 AM but by 6:30 it is not lip-scalding hot anymore I have never put my coffee pots in the dishwasher so I can't advise you there.

Not significantly. As you pour there is a chance that the coffee will come into contact with the lining of the lid..

Yes it keeps the coffee hot. Didn't have it on for more than a couple hours so don't know the answer to the shut off. I'll pay attention next time we use it.

Yes. Fits snuggly, but works. I was not happy with drip rate. Drilled two more holes to increase. Works well. Ok with one hole, if you're not in a big hurry for your coffee. Pour some hot water into carafe to warm it up before you make the coffee. Keeps coffee hot for several hours.

Yes. It keeps a cup of coffee hot for about 20-30 min. The lid is the shortcoming. It's silicone so it smells plasticy and isn't that secure - not like a screwed on top. It works.

Correct it does not completely close/seal. There is a small opening to pour. Hope that helps.

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, small opening. Perfect HOT coffee/tea travel cup! Really keeps coffee hot for long while.

No-the coffee is in a thermal carafe. You put the lid on the carafe and it keeps the coffee very hot

The lid fits fairly tight but it is not air tight. I have gone thru three large bags of coffee so far and have not had a problem with it staying fresh. I think Robert B. Whyte summed it up best.

Yes, around 13.5 closed, and 17.5 with the water-reservoir lid open. Ps: the coffee-maker has been doing its job without complaint every morning for a year or so. I'm happy with it.

Yes,just push down on the lid.I've got some filters that have a little bit of a lip on it,I just bent it over the E-Z cup top before you put your coffee in.the lid will stay close.

Excellent question! NO, it is not spill proof. With the lid down all the way, it still has a small opening for pouring coffee. So, if it falls over, coffee will spill out all over the place. It apparently was meant to work this way so that you don't have to press the lid at all when pouring, and works fine as long as it is upright. Hope this was helpful.

Yes. I have no issues with the lid. I do close it when I'm not using it. But it does stay open when I am.

No, the lid doesn't have a lock, it has a rubber seal and pushes onto the cup. Have never had a problem with the lid coming off. It is easy to remove and clean. This is by far the best travel mug I have ever used and it keeps your beverage hot for hours! If you keep the opening on the lid closed, your coffee will stay hot for 8 hours or more! Cleaning is easy and I throw mine in the dishwasher top rack all the time.
