Title: uncleanable mug
Review: I bought this because it was rated very highly in a consumer magazine. It looks nice, fits the hand easily, doesn't spill...however, when you put in a hot liquid it tastes strongly of plastic, this taste does not go away over time. With the concerns about chemicals used to make the plastic I wonder what I was drinking. It cannot be cleaned adequately; you can use hot water and shake the lid until your arm falls off and it still isn't clean. Coffee acumulates in the crevices and turns into a scum which will wash out in disgusting pieces but I never feel it is clean. You cannot reach into the lid's spaces, I've even tried q-tips. I bought 2 and dislike them so much I can't even feel comfortable putting them in a yard sale, much less giving them away to some one I like. This is not a product that lives up to its positive reviews and I would not recommend it to anyone just because it doesn't spill.
Is this product review negative?
