Ello Ogden Ceramic Travel Mug with Splash-Resistant Slider Lid and Protective Silicone Boot, Perfect for Coffee or Tea, BPA Free, Dishwasher Safe, Gray, 16 oz, 758-0438-040

I was looking for a ceramic travel mug without a handle that I could use with the shoulder-strap-style drink (tumbler style) carrier/holder that we also purchased on Amazon. There were not many options for the style of carrier that fits this type of travel mug (most were for the huge ones) and there were not many options for ceramic travel mugs without handles, so the fact that the two items pair perfectly is delightful! Now I can tote coffee around with me (in a real ceramic "mug", not metal or plastic) when working in the garden. The lid is good quality and easy to use and clean, not the lightest weight, not the heaviest weight, but midrange. I'm very happy with the mug, the lid and the sleeve. The cup/mug is well made, no chemical smells, no flaws of any kind, came with a tag (seems like a real ello product) and is good quality, looks exactly as shown in photo. If I had found it locally and felt and seen the quality I would have definitely still purchased. (Not that this cup is around here) The return policy made me feel confident, in case it was cheap or arrived broken. But it's good and arrived perfectly. The quality is better than expected, as hoped for. It compares to what one might expect to find in a place where they have good quality kitchen wares. The only thing I would change about this ceramic travel mug is (nothing except) that it would be for it to be available in more color options. :-) If they made it in true green, I would buy another. I got the purple one shown and it is as shown and looks nice. The combo of the ceramic with the grippy no-slip sleeve is pleasing. The grippy sleeve fits nicely and goes under the outside bottom edge of the cup so if you have it on a slippery surface it's okay. It's got grip. You can set it on top of your vehicle while putting groceries in and it stays fine. Plus, it won't scratch or scuff the surface it is set on. Since it is ceramic, I pop a basket style tea strainer in and make a one drink coffee in this without a coffee maker. Remove that, empty the grounds into the compost and delish coffee to go. The pastel colors make these especially good Spring and Easter gifts, just don't forget to fill with candy! haha It's looks nice and functions well. Very happy with this travel mug. Recommend.

I have to say right off the bat that I bought this mug specifically because ceramic doesn't keep the coffee boiling hot. I don't want to drink boiling hot coffee and I hate that the fancy stainless steel travel mugs keep the temp high forever. These allow the coffee to cool at a normal rate, like a normal cup, so you can drink it without burning your mouth. So, not for everyone but surely I'm not the only one who wants their coffee to get cold. It fits 2 cups of coffee. I think you can put it in the dishwasher but I never have. I don't know why you would need to. Just rinse it out. The design is pretty (love geometric stuff) and the sides are nice and grippy. The lid works fine. Not the best ever but also stays on and does its job. Overall, I love this mug.

Overall it’s fine. It keeps coffee warm enough to drink 400ml through around an hour. Aesthetics are good. Quality seems good. It there are two things that bug me. The lid traps coffee inside it and you need to really wash it to get it out. Hand washing is OK but not great. The dishwasher is necessary. Just make it a one-piece design and make it easier. It doesn’t seal perfectly anyway, so you still have to treat the mug as though it’s open even if closed. Not a big deal, more just annoying. What’s much more annoying is the incredible amount of water that gets trapped between the sleeve and the mug in the dishwasher. This water, somehow, doesn’t run out during drying. It doesn’t run out when you take it out of the washer. It doesn’t run out when you set it on the counter. It doesn’t run out when you fill the mug with coffee. It’s doesn’t run out when you carry the thing into your car. It does, however, all run out when you take a sip of coffee while driving on the freeway on the way to work, leaving you with a very nice wet spot all over your lap. And it’s not a small amount or a couple of drips. It’s a couple of ounces of water which proceeds to dribble out bit by bit after you’ve thought to have gotten all of it. In all, the mug is ‘fine’ but with some irritating flaws. One thing you HAVE to know about it is to remove the sleeve after you’ve washed it or bear the consequences, an embarrassing wet spot on your pants as you walk into the office.

First off, this is not an insulating mug. This mug only keeps coffee piping hot for about 20 minutes and after 30 minutes it is lukewarm. But that is exactly what I want. I have a Yeti-style double wall vacuum insulated mug that keeps coffee piping hot for an hour and a half and I love it too. But sometimes I don't have an hour and a half to drink my coffee and with that mug if I try to finish off the coffee any faster I just burn my throat. So this Ello mug is perfect. I was using an old style Copco mug which also was good for 20-30 minutes. But they are made of plastic and after awhile those Copco lids leak. The new ones tend to leak right out of the gate, so I ditched them. This Ello mug is really nice and I'm sure the ceramic is healthier than plastic..

The build quality is great. It's super sturdy and I prefer to drink out of porcelain. However, my drinks don't stay hot because the lid does not fasten tightly to the cup. This also makes for spills. The liquid will definitely spill out if tilted. Why??????? All in all, it's just a coffee cup and I'm not going to return it. If I had it to do over again, I would not have purchase it.

After decades of searching, I finally found it--the perfect coffee mug for me! First of all, it is very attractive, and it has that unmistakable look and feel of top notch quality. The soft and quite unique outer non-slip cover enhances its appearance, and makes it easy to hold the mug securely and comfortably even when the coffee is very hot. My coffee stays acceptably warm for over 15 minutes, which is almost always sufficient. On those rare occasions when there's still some left, I just pop the mug with the remaining beverage in the microwave for 10 seconds or so to warm it up. I am especially happy that the mug fits snugly into my car cup holder! Its soft outer cover totally prevents that annoying rattling that you get with so many other travel mugs when driving. ONE WARNING THOUGH: The mug is breakable if you drop it on a hard surface (duh. . .) , which is exactly what I did about two weeks after I got it. I was really upset when I broke it, and kept telling myself, "Get a grip Chuck, it's only a coffee mug!" I immediately ordered an exact replacement that same day, and within a day or so all was well again when Amazon delivered the new one. The replacement was just as nice as the first one. In closing, I say to you without any doubt or embarrassment: I LOVE THIS MUG!

This mug is one of the worst experiences of my life, and I have seen illness, death, natural disaster, and poverty. When the mug arrived, I washed it. This did not change the fact that it smelled like the Chinese factory that mass produced it is also churning out benzine and insecticides. I filled it with filtered water, and put it in my purse. The lid was firmly secure, and the mug was never tipped more than five degrees from a right angle. This mug LEAKED from the seams, the sliding mechanism at the top, and especially from where slide tab intersects-it was like a garden hose was let loose on my body, my bag, and my car. I had no time to literally mop up the damage, so I had to sit through a meeting looking like I urinated all over myself for over an hour. When I got home, I spread out all my things from my purse, like my day planner and my notebook, like accordions so mildew wouldn't fester. But still, all these things are warped and the ink has run. But wait, the SUCK MUG wasn't through ruining my month. The silicone housing is carefully designed so that water is trapped within its many labyrinthine protuberances and folds, so when I tipped it over to drink from it, it also attacked my laptop and the clothes I'd changed into. Nicely played, Hell-o. As others have pointed out, the Ello mug is heavy as a brick, and of course you don't want to put it in a cup holder or bag as it will turn into a property-destroying geyser of water or coffee. It doesn't insulate worth a d**m, and within thirty minutes all of the ice is melted, or conversely, the coffee is lukewarm. However, your coffee will give you second degree burns before this happens. I know this is subjective, but the suck mug is also hideous. It looks like 70's paneling. Others have noted that the mug will spontaneously break. I haven't experienced this yet, but I am sure that is the next unpleasant surprise-clay made of floor sweepings, cremains, and heavy metals sending explosive "pottery" shards into my chest and neck. Ello should send a mass shipment of these mugs to ISIS, after which they will all die of frustration, dehydration, and mold inhalation. I spent three hours looking for a mug that didn't taste like metal or plastic that I could put my hand into all the way to the bottom for through hand cleaning, which apparently rivals the cancer moon jump in its lofty challenge to mankind.

This works great for coffee in the car. The ceramic sucks the scorching heat out of the liquid and releases it back slowly. No more scalding coffee. As noted, the lid is friction fit so it is not entirely spill proof, but keeps the liquid in place while the truck is bouncing around. The only negative from me….it says it’s dishwasher safe, but the silicone sleeve holds a ton of water. The water ran out when I tried to drink from it this morning. My shirt was soaked with dishwasher water before I knew what happened. Best to hand wash only.

Great

ممتاز

This is a great mug. I hate the taste of stainless steel but wanted a travel mug and this ceramic mug is the best. It’s a great size, sturdy. The sleeve has a good grip and helps keep the coffee warm. I definitely recommend this mug!!

Very solid and stylish mug would not any fear of it breaking easily.
