Title: Almost great, with a major taste problem
Review: I'm sad to have to leave a negative review of this product. I love the overall aesthetics and ergonomics of this product. It also does a fantastic job of keeping things hot for a long time. However, none of this matters when the liquid its storing comes out with a horrendous taste. No matter how many times or methods I try to use to clean the lid, everything I put into the mug comes out with an "off" rubbery/plastic taste. The lid also seems to trap smells, as even after repeated cleanings it smells like the last drink the cup contained. I've tried the various suggestions for cleaning found elsewhere in the reviews, but none of them have seemed to help. My advice is to avoid this mug. It costs too much to ruin your morning coffee.
