bru Travel - Insulated Coffee Cup Travel Mug for Hot Drinks, Leakproof, Ceramic Lined (12 oz, Aranya Green)

This is my new favorite to-go coffee mug. I've owned a variety of mugs, from the horrible MiiR, to the amazing Fellow. But I was looking for a mug that had the same compact size, with the ceramic inside as the Fellow, but an easier to clean lid system like the MiiR. Enter Bru... This was literally the only mug on the market I could find (and I searched high and low) that checked all the boxes. Ceramic inner; on the go quick sip lid, yet seals for a drip free/leak proof experience; and easy to disassemble and clean lid. Compared to the Fellow Carter, this lid is far easier to dissasemble and clean. The Fellow is great, but the slide lid is so hard to remove, clean, and reassemble. The 360 sip lid is also so fun and easy to use, along with the push to engage/disengage lid. Not to mention it keeps liquids hot for a long time. This is also the only fully leak proof mug I've found with a quick, on the go sipping lid.

So these work quite well and don't leak. The lead mechanism is quite interesting with three parts that are easy to take apart for cleaning. I think the best part of these mugs is that the lid design makes it really easy to drink naturally out of the cup as well as keeping the coffee untainted by a metallic or plastic taste. The lid works by pushing in the middle of it semi similar to a bathtub drain. Is recommend screwing in the top open as if you overfilled then it'll just go into the lid area instead of spilling out of the sides like every other mug. Some people may have trouble seeing if it is open your closed but there is a line in the inside of the lid that is visible when it's open and not visible when it is closed (Pictures attached) The first mug I ordered had an issue, but the seller was really responsive and fixed the issue I had promptly and professionally and my new one is perfectly fine. Also I should not that this is one of the first coffee travel mugs that didn't scald me while drinking and keeps the coffee at a really good temperature for a long time.

I have been using this 12 oz cup for a couple weeks now. I think it is good for my purpose of getting it to bring coffee every morning from home to office and keep the coffee hot. I was worried if it would leak before I got it since there are some reviews mentioning that. But mine doesn’t leak at all. I think it might be because they didn’t tightly assemble the 3 parts of the lid. When I first got mine, it wasn’t tightly assemble out of the package, so when I tested it, it did leak. Once you tighten the parts, it works great. There are little something that it could still improve though. I couldn’t drink all the coffee from the push-open lid, there is always some leftover. I would have to remove the lid to drink all. The max fill line is too faint or too hard to find when I fill my coffee. Because it is not all around the inside wall of the cup, I always have to rotate the cup to locate the mark. And the push to open or close sound of the lid is kinda loud in a quiet open office environment. I would prefer it to be a little bit quieter. And there are some area of the lid is hard to clean even when I dissemble the parts out. Those are just some perfectionist’s suggestions. Overall, I really like this cup. If it could make all those improvements, I would get a second one.

I originally backed this company on kickstarter. I still haven't gotten those cups do to me holding out on a certain color that I wanted. Sadly there wasn't enough to go around. But I did order myself a cup of of here to try and I am happy with it. The lid can be taken apart to really clean it thoroughly and that is a major bonus for me. I am excited to get the cups I backed as I got a notification that they shipped since the size I chose on amazon is a littler smaller then I normally use.

The cup is terrific. I love the ceramic liner, which really does keep foul odors, flavors, and stains away. The lid is easy to drink from and clean, but it can be difficult to know if it's open or closed at a glance. It's very leak resistant when closed, but not leak proof. Go ahead and put it in your bag if you can keep it upright, but don't let it fall over unless you are ok with a little leakage.

I love that it holds the balance of coffee from my Chemex brewer after my first mug.No more microwave coffee. I love that it fits all my vehicles cup holders, however, I do find I need to check for leakage at my sink as it sometimes requires an extra twist to seal. BTW it leaves about 1 ml of coffee remaining after use. Did I mention that it imparts no flavors to my drinks as sometimes there may be a bit of bourbon remaining after evening use, like about 1 ml?

Great cup. If anyone else has an issue with the clicking mechanism, push the center part in and twist the protruding disk until it's fully tightened (until you can't twist) and you will have no issues.Owners reached out personally to tell me this.A lot of small features in this cup that go far, like a rubber bottom to prevent accidental spillage / adds a nice firmness to the grip on any surface.

Updating my review. While I wasn’t satisfied with this purchase and ended up returning the cup, the co founder was kind enough to reach out and explain the technicality of the lid as to what the issue could have been. Unfortunately, I don’t have the cup to see for myself and I don’t want to repurchase at the moment. I will say I appreciate the friendliness and customer service. If you have an issue with your cup, reach out to seller before returning :)I really wanted to love this mug but it leaks everywhere. And the cup itself is quite heavy.
