Review: Good Mug - Bought this to replace my old and battered Contigo travel mug. This one is well built and keeps the beverage really hot for quite some time.
Review: Absolutely Perfect - Having read various positive and negative reviews about this, I was really undecided and not sure what to expect, especially as it is quite expensive for a thermal mug. Now that I've used it on a daily basis for several weeks now I can categorically highly recommend it - and it is worth every penny. It doesn't leave a metallic aftertaste; it keeps my tea piping hot for several hours (and still drinkable 10 hours later!); it doesn't leak at all; it is fairly easy to clean (but like every other mug I have had, there is a build-up around the ridges in the lid); it is sturdy and very well made. I know some reviewers have commented that the spring broke after a short period of time but I have not had any issues with this. Like everything, I tend to be quite gentle when dismantling/opening the various bits for cleaning. I have also only once experienced a bit of 'drip-age' when I went to take another mouthful and dribbled down my top. On watching what I did, it was entirely 'operator error' and was because I took my finger off the button while the mug was still tilted. Having realised what I did, I now make sure that I have the mug vertical before releasing the button - no more drip-age! You will not be disappointed with this item and I have no hesitation in recommending it.

## Features

- 100 percent sealed: AUTOSEAL technology automatically seals the travel mug between sips to prevent leaks and spills; the CleanGuard lid rotates to lock the AUTOSEAL button for added peace of mind

- Easy to clean: Dishwasher-safe lid hinges open completely for easy cleaning (one piece, no separate parts to take apart or misplace); hand wash vacuum flask body

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What’s the difference between this and Contigo Auto Seal west loop?**
A: There's a big difference in the locking mechanism. The west loop mug uses a much larger and differently positioned spring. After less than a month, my West loop spring snapped and the mug would not close. I've had the transit mug for almost 4 years and had no issues with it at all. Much sturdier spring design

**Q: Please would you specify the base diameter**
A: Dear Consumer, this is Leszek from the Contigo Consumer Care. Thank you for contacting us as regards the diameter of the base of our Transit 16oz. In response, I do confirm that the base is 7.8 cm.

I hope that this information is useful.

**Q: Does this fit securely in a bicycle bottle cage? Lots of people riding bikes this Winter.**
A: Simply the best

**Q: What's the diameter at the widest part? And what happens when washed in dishwasher?**
A: Widest 3”…… they are the best you will ever buy. Put ice and juice/ water it will keep the ice for hour and hours
