Plastic, but I had to check twice because it looks like glass. It makes a very nice presentation on the table - not cheap looking.

Plastic. Mine was scratched because it was not protected at all. Just put in a box

I purchased this for someone else, and they are sure it's glass. It was shipped very well packed which I assumed they wouldn't have done if it were plastic. Either way, it's a neat thing and has many possible uses besides holding tea.

Yes it is glass. There is a gasket where the straw goes through the lid and spills are prevented. Susan W.

The clear part is plastic. The green is a bit like a cross between silicon and plastic the inside looks like silicon but the outside looks like plastic (I hope that makes sense). The lid and the bottom are both flexible so you can get them on and off easily to clean it. I expected it to be bigger but it's not too bad. Is this any help?

It is glass. We have had no issues with this and have found it easy to keep clean.

The lid is almost all plastic. The clear part appears to be acrylic and the threading that screws into the glass is plastic. There's a stainless veneer around the outer ring of the lid, as well as the top around the acrylic. Some other commenters reported smelling or tasting the plastic in their water, but I haven't detected it at all.

Plastic. All the metal pieces are covering plastic. I've since had more issues with gaskets and all the metal has fallen off the thermos.

If it is a standard replacement, it is actually glass. There are metal back covers available.

It's a clear glass lid. I've used it several times and I am enjoying the mobility of taking frying pan where I need it. I should have purchased it a long time ago. It also cleans up nicely in the dishwasher.

Yes, the lid is glass. I broke the mug itself (my fault) but the lid survived. The green grip ring is durable, but the seal ring around the lid will discolor with coffee or tea, but seems to remain clean and reasonably hygienic. This is a durable and high quality travel mug, so I'd recommend it and would buy it again. It survives cleaning in the dishwasher, it doesn't scratch or deteriorate in appearance, and it fits nicely in the cupholder of a car. I used it in the microwave and under an espresso machine for a long time before I broke it.

The lid is plastic with a silicone sealing ring. I bought two of these mugs and the mugs themselves are great, but, I don't like the lids. One lid came with a broken seal and the other lid seals fine but is difficult to drink from.

It appears to be glass, however I have not broken one so I cannot tell. They seem to heavy for plastic.

The body and lid are glass, the taps are chromed plastic. It is a decent setup.

How does one know the difference? I can say that the red parts (flat lid, edges around the side) are plastic. But, the portion that "pops open", the opaque sides, are a flexible plastic. It could be silicone, but I don't know how to determine.

The lid is glass. Plastic handle. Metal band along the rim and the vent hole. Solid. Excellent fit.

The jar and lid are both plastic. I don't see anything that mentions the composition of the plastic. I don't even see the PETE #1 that Walter mentioned.

The pitcher itself is glass, the lid is plastic. It also make the best froth, can't tell it from the coffee houses.
