Has anyone tried drinking hot tea/coffee with this? Its dishwasher safe, although the label indicates "for cold beverages only."

I wouldn't recommend using this with very hot water. It's standard glass and likely less durable than a normal canning jar. If you DO try this, warm the bottle up slowly using your tap water first to bring it up to a warm temperature. Make sure there are no cold spots before adding hot water as it's the difference between cold and hot that causes glass to break.

I have made tea directly in it -- I pour very hot (not quite boiling) water in and add the teabag. I've never had a problem.... but perhaps I'm just lucky. I typically don't put the cover back on until it's cooled a bit.

It says to only use for cold, but I have used it for hot drinks and it worked great - but you have to be careful when drinking from it if your drink is really hot.

Yes. I am on my 2nd thermos in 12 years (lol). I actually throw it in the dishwasher and get great results. My coffee stays warm for hours-

It would be safe to put tea bag in tumbler & let it steep, just like hot coffee is perfectly fine. You certainly can't boil water in the tumbler.

I tried it with cold milk, then with hot and it seemed to work better using hot milk. The only other thing I can think of is that you might be stirring your coffee after the milk is added. I wouldn't.

I don't think you can use it for hot beverages. I have only used it for cold.

I wouldn't brew hot coffee with it as you are defeating its purpose, if a Hot coffee is wanted take some of the cold brewed coffee and heat it up or add boiling water to the cold brew.

I have only used this for cold tea. I use this at work, however if it is advertised to hold hot tea I feel sure you could because the cold tea stays cold all day.

It's not recommended according to the paper work i got with the cup. But i have washed it in the dishwasher on top rack with no apparent damage, i don't do it on a regular basis though. I truly love the cup as it does keep my coffee hot for a long time. Would buy another one.

I've used the tumbler for over a year daily with boiling water and for iced drinks without a problem.Additionally, I always put it in the dishwasher daily. No problem yet.

Iv been drinking hot tea out of it so I hope so lol its also dishwasher safe :-) it's a good sized mug the only thing I don't like about it is the square shape kinda gets on my nerves sometimes. If the person you're buying it for is a doctor who fan they will love it. :-)

I only use this for cold brew tea and coffee. For anything hot, I would be more comfortable using glass or ceramic container/carafe, unless the manufacturer would attest to its safety up to certain temperature.

I use mine solely for iced tea, but I have not had any issue with a funny taste. I did wash them with soapy water prior to using them. I have since washed them in the dishwasher with no issue. The only downfall of these cups are that they are too big for my cup holder in my car. :)

I know you can drink cold drinks, haven't tried hot- they are plastic- so I'm not 100% sure.

I never wash my to-go mugs in the dishwasher. I have in the past but it seemed to cause problems with the seal, which caused the mugs to leak if tipped. Also the seal being warped means the liquid inside cools quicker. That might not be a problem if you drink it quickly, but I sometimes get busy and need an hour or so to get back to my coffee. This mug keeps things warm that long if the seal is in good shape. I guess you could wash them in the dishwasher, but it will affect the life of the mug.

I put mine in the dishwasher for about six months. Just too much work, with all the other non-dishwasher-safe junk to wash. It was perfect but then gradually a screw got loose and the handle got slightly loose and then there was a microscopic leak in the bottom. So I got a new one, don't want to take any chances. It's a drag to have to clean it ( I have big hands and have to put on dishwashing gloves) but it's worth it, since it's such a cool coffee mug. I really do love it. The travel one, unfortunately, has a plastic lip. Not so good....

I do not put it in the dishwasher, however i believe it says it can be. Any insulated mug like this i won't put in a dishwasher. But LOVE the mug......
