Best Buy Contigo Thermo Ceramic 14 Ounce White

I all ready own the 10oz version of this mug and loved it, the 14oz is even better. Keeps coffee hot for quite a while and tastes so much better coming out of the ceramic then plastic or steel. I'm thinking of buying 2 more to put in our RV so I can enjoy campfire coffee from it.
I do like this ceramic coated stainless steel insulated coffee mug for my morning coffee. As far as the lid I tried drinking out of the cup with it on and found that without a vent the coffee flow was restricted. I drilled a 1/8" hole on the opposite side of the lid as I had noted in a previously written review and that helped but my lips can only take so much of the heat that is transmitted to the plastic lid. Personally I don't trust a lid that just slips on top of a mug. So my next action I took was to remove the plastic lid and use the mug without the lip-burner. I find that the Contigo Thermo Ceramic 14-Ounce Desk Mug works best for me if I add hot water to the cup and let it set while brewing my coffee to get the cup heated up. The coffee stays fairly hot to my last sip. I also find that the handle is user friendly and cool to the touch. I find that the base of the cup is also user friendly with the furniture as it is cushioned with a rubberized material and protects against heat transfer although I still use a coaster from habit (wife enforced). I am pleased with this coffee mug and would recommend it to anyone looking for a coffee cup.
