Bubba HERO Vacuum-Insulated Stainless Steel Travel Mug with Handle, 18 oz, Gunmetal

I despise lukewarm coffee, and as I am slow to finish my first morning cup, I am always looking for a good mug to keep my coffee hot for a long time. I love my Bubba Hero container. It holds my hot liquids well all day. It fits nicely in my cup storage in my car, does not easily tip, and washes well in the dishwasher. I highly recommend this for hot coffee, soups, and tea, as it will keep your liquids warm throughout your day.

Four years ago, I was the first one in my family to buy an 18oz Bubba mug. Given the affordable price, we were all skeptical about how well it would insulate hot coffee and how spill proof it would be. For months, I filled my Bubba with hot coffee at 4:30am, drank some of the hot coffee on the way to work without any spilling in the car, stowed the mug in my locker, and drank the rest of the hot coffee during my first break of the day about 7:30 am. During this time -the dead of winter-I would occasionally forget to bring my mug of coffee inside. Nevertheless, it was still hot when I went out to the car at break time to get it. Sometimes, I would not stow my mug in my locker, but bring it with me on my rounds. On occasion, it would get knocked off my cart. But, it didn't leak. When the weather turned hot, I switched to ice coffee. One July morning, I left my mug in the car, but I didn't go out to get it during my shift. When I got in the car after my shift, I was delighted to find my drink still had ice in it. Since then, everyone in our household has gotten a Bubba mug, either because they asked me to get them one for Christmas or because they bought their own. Our mugs also travel with us on cruises.

My husband had an older version of this cup, it lasted so many years. He loves the color, the seal is great no leakage. He loves this cup so much I had to buy him a new one, he didn’t know I was getting him one so it was like a gift worth the money!

I have had a Bubba cup for my coffee for many years. I loved my mug. One day, it was too tall for the Keurig. The top edge was raised up, dividing from the cup. My husband was able to push it back, but it was still too tall.He bought me this one last week. It is the same height as the first one. It has a rubber bottom so it is a soft landing when you put it down on the table or beverage holder in the car. One difference is, that this lid screws on, compared to a push-down lid. The opener of the 2 cups are the same.The first morning, I turned the cup up for a sip and scalded half of my mouth off. I have never had such hot coffee in my many years of life! After putting ice on my upper lip, I tried it again. Still super hot but not scalding. I now have to take the lid off and wait about 5 minutes while I blow on it to be able to drink it. That creates a new problem. Without the lid, it cools down so fast that it is soon room temperature. I use a pod and it only makes 1/2 of the mug amount so I am surprised that it stays that hot as long as you leave the screw on lid shut. Like I said, when I take the lid off, it gets cold too fast.I am still trying to decide to go back to my old one or keep this one. I have used it 3 times so far. I hope the new one works.

This cup keeps your beverage HOT for a long period of time. Great product

My husband likes his new travel mug very much. He got it to replace a Starbuck's mug he lost and to replace a Yeti travel mug he recently purchased. The Yeti was too heavy! The Bubba keeps his coffee hot and the weight is perfect!

Great coffee mug well made secure handle insulated well

#1. Loss of bottom insulator from cup. I've found that the glue that is supposed to hold the insulator to the cup bottom is very sparse, and tends to come off easily and disappear. I'm trying a Gorilla waterproof type now.#2. Lids can be hard to get off and very difficult to screw on. Lid threads are not well lined up or perhaps, the die that is used to cast the threads is badly worn.#4. The small cover that snaps over the hole in the lid works better as a device to help screw the lid on and off. Its also rather pathetically designed and poorly made, as the two hinge pins are too small to hold much force, such as falling on to a tile floor or having to use the cover to unscrew the lid.#5. I have 6 of these cups and found some lids work better on certain cups.#6. I am now testing all the lids on all the cups and numbering the lids to the cup they fit the best with a water proof marker.#7. I will say this for the cups. They insulate extremely well. Ice cubes placed in a cup with a cold soda will stay cold til noon the next day. These are the best cups I have ever used that are capable of this.
