Title: Good in theory; less so in practice
Product review: I had this mug for a few months before it cracked and the double-lined wall filled with water. Sadly, it is now landfill.The two major weaknesses of this product--hit upon by almost all reviewers--are: 1) the plastic lip on the press lets grounds pass through, leaving bits in your coffee, and 2) it cracks easily. Granted, I tend to be rough on my travel-ware (the gym-home-school-work circuit has really done a number on my SIGG bottle), but this mug died even without any trauma.Both problems would be solved if the mug was double-walled glass, which would both solve the cracking problem (unless you dropped it) and would allow for a metal mesh lip around the press--just like the other, non-travel Bodum products... which work fine.Good idea in theory; less than successful in practice.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
