Review: Love the 20oz... but it is tall! - I love my Contigo AUTOSEAL West Loop 3.0 20OZ travel mug! I had another Contigo coffee mug for about 8 years and loved it. Once I needed to upgrade, I jumped on the West Loop and it is great. No leaks so far. Easy to clean. Color (Transparent Berry) is very nice. It feels very solid... I am not nervous about dropping this thing at all. It also keeps my coffee super hot for a long time... which is great! I assume it would be just as good ice I needed to keep things cool. The only things I don't love... -1: It is about 1/8 inch too tall for my Ninja Coffee machine. I need to brew into a different cup and pour it into the West Loop. Or I can bend the coffee machine a little and get it in... but then the mug touches the bottom of the dispensing area, and that feels icky. -2: The lock button (pictured) slips from Unlocked to Locked often. Just carrying it up my stairs with other things under my arms causes this. But I don't think it'll have the opposite issue... going from Locked to Unlocked as that feels much tighter. Even with 1 and 2 above, I love this. But I might consider getting the 16oz when I need to replace this one again in 8 or so years :) Review: Love these! - These mugs are gorgeous but even better than that, they absolutely will not spill if you knock them over. They even have a lock on the lid in case you're putting it in a bag for on the go in case the autoseal mechanism accidentally gets pushed in. When I first got them, I thought I had to open and close the lock to keep it from spilling but you do not have to do that at all. The grip is great and I haven't put any hot liquids in it yet, but it keeps your drinks icy cold for hours. Well worth the money. ## Features - Our Lids Are Sealed – AUTOSEAL technology is leak and spill proof (Yes there is a difference!) - For the Long Haul – Drinks stay hot up to 5 hours and cold up to 12 with THERMALOCK Vacuum Insulation - Lend a Hand – Easy one-handed drinking with the push of a button - Squeaky Clean – Easy clean lid completely opens for an extra squeaky clean with no separate parts to take apart or misplace - Lock it Up – AUTOSEAL button lock for added peace of mind - Nothing but the Best – AUTOSEAL is America's #1 selling* line of travel mugs - Perfect Fit – Fits most car cup holders and under most single serve brewers - Clean Up – Top rack dishwasher lid, hand wash body - All Contigo products are BPA free, have a limited lifetime guarantee and are designed by passionate inventors and innovators who have your mobility in mind ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00HZI5XNO | | Additional Features | Bpa Free,Spill Proof | | Age Range (Description) | Adult | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Base Diameter | 7.75 inches | | Best Sellers Rank | #373 in Kitchen & Dining ( See Top 100 in Kitchen & Dining ) #3 in Sports Fan Kitchen & Dining Products #67 in Insulated Bottles | | Brand | Contigo | | Brand Name | Contigo | | Cap Type | Screw Cap | | Capacity | 16 fluid ounces | | Color | Stainless Steel | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 58,721 Reviews | | Included Components | Contigo 2074750 West Loop 16Oz Ss Black Button | | Item Dimensions W x H | 1"W x 1"H | | Item Type Name | Contigo AUTOSEAL West Loop Vaccuum-Insulated Stainless Steel Travel Mug, 16 oz, Stainless Steel | | Item Weight | 16 ounces | | Manufacturer | Ignite USA | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Name | Contigo Autoseal West Loop Travel Mug | | Number of Items | 1 | | Pattern | 1 16 Ounce | | Product Care Instructions | Top rack dishwasher lid, hand wash body | | Recommended Uses For Product | Coffee | | Special Feature | Bpa Free,Spill Proof | | Theme | Food & Drink | | UPC | 840276150210 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Contigo - **Capacity:** 16 fluid ounces - **Color:** Stainless Steel - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Coffee - **Special Feature:** Bpa Free,Spill Proof ## Images ![West Loop Stainless Steel Travel Mug with AUTOSEAL Lid, 16oz., Stainless Steel/Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/718JGxlo0dL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How leakproof is this? If I lay it on its side, will it leak? What if I throw it in a bag (e.g. backpack, messenger bag, etc.)?** A: I have two and I put coffee in one and water in the other. I then put them Inside my tote bag (no pockets). They do not leak!!!! You can lay them down, turn them upside down or shake them and they will not leak. Disclaimer: You must keep the top closed and the top must be screwed on correctly and tightly. Keeps liquids hot or cold for hours!!! Best travel cup ever!!!!!! **Q: Is the interior stainless or plastic?** A: The interior is a stainless metal. **Q: Does anyone know what the difference is between this model with "Easy Clean Lid" and the previous model with "Open-Access Lid"? Which is better?** A: Easy clean lid is better but 1st seals used by mfg. squeaks when you go to drink. Don't know if mfg. changed to seals which don't squeak. Does anyone know if currently shipping Easy Clean Lid still squeaks when actuated to drink? Are Easy Clean Lids interchangeable between earlier earlier 20 oz stainless steel travel mugs? **Q: Just bought these and soaked tops in warm water, coffee still tastes like plastic/rubber will this go away?** A: We hand wash ours with dish soap and water, rinse thoroughly and then boil some hot water to blow out the top. This gets the crud out of the air holes under the lock. Now if I just had a replacement seal for around the lid, I'd be grand. I've had mine for about ten years...they definitely start to taste like whatever you put it in every day. With a daily rinse, it helps a ton. The plastic taste should go away rather quickly. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love the 20oz... but it is tall! *by J***N on June 3, 2026* I love my Contigo AUTOSEAL West Loop 3.0 20OZ travel mug!
