Is it usable for hot liquids for e.g. coffee or tea?

I haven't tried. But it says on the instruction that it is not for use with hot liquids. It's for cold liquids only and hot liquids may cause burns.

It shouldn't melt or anything, but it's uninsulated, so it would get a lot hotter to handle than an actual thermos.

Yes it can be used in hot liquid. The part that goes into the liquid is stainless steel just like the corded ones.

I see no problem with using this to warm a a coffee mug instead of a teapot ... I have on several occasions, but my primary use is as a teapot warmer.

I don't know since I have never used it for coffee. It has a slanted, thicker lip on it that might not be the best to drink from...excellent for heating soup though.

I think it would be fine to use it for hot chocolate but I have only used mine for coffee. It works very well and keeps coffee hot for hours.

It's plastic so I wouldn't. They make a stainless steel version which would be better for hot liquids.

Not sure this would work for coffee. I have personally never tried it but since it is plastic and double insulated, hot liquids may cause the plastic to expand and possibly crack eliminating the double insulating feature. I'm no expert and haven't tried it, but personally I wouldn't chance it unless you don't mind possibly having to replace it.

The product is made of a hard plastic, so it probably could hold hot tea and not compromise the material. That being said, it would be very hot to the touch. You would be better off searching for a double-walled glass.

I have their metal containers for hot beverages. I wouldn't use it for hot beverages for 2 reasons: First, if they don't melt the plastic, they wouldn't maintain their heat; and second, you'd probably burn your hand. I'm sure they are meant solely for non-hot liquid. Their metal containers keep liquids hot for more than an hour!

I'm not sure. It is made of hard inflexible plastic. I guess you could, but I would look into a cuppow for hot drinks.

Although the instructions say not to use with hot liquids, judging from the great build material of the bottle, It can definitely be able to hold hot beverages. Just make sure the tea is already brewed prior.

You can use it for any hot (or cold) liquid, tea works just fine. With tea I do find that I usually need to let the tea cool down a bit with the lid off before I can drink it but once it's to the right temperature it will keep the temperature hot for a decent amount of time with the lid back on.

Yes, I've used it for anything hot, including cocoa, broth, tea, coffee, and boiling water. The interior is stainless steel, so there is no problem with previous tastes lingering as long as you clean it out properly. If you want the beverage to stay hot for the maximum amount of time, pour boiling water in first to heat the interior, then empty it after a minute or so and you're ready to add whatever you'd like.

I think it probably would. The infuser basket is quite narrow, so larger tea bags would probably have to be worked with a bit to get them down in the basket. I have never used the cup with any hot liquids either, but I believe the plastic is sturdy enough to hold up to hot water/tea infusing.

I only used it to mix a powdered drink with warm water. I never used it for hot coffee. Be careful to hold down the top when blending as it does not stay on. Good luck.

yes, if it is something like a coffee mug warmer. I don't have a tea pot warmer.

yes it should hold the hot liquids but I believe its intended to kI personally would not use it for hot liquid because I don't know it's the interior plastic can handle the heatit may start to break down and crack
