I saw that some Zojirushi mugs are not so easy to drink directly from. How does this one work? I'd rather not unscrew the whole top to drink coffee

You just pop the cap open and sip. It's super easy. You don't have to unscrew the top.

It is VERY easy to drink from. Just push the button with your thumb and the lid pops up, allowing you to drink from the inner lip. I love the ability to pick up, pop open and drink and close lid with one hand!

You don't need to unscrew the top, just open the latch and the top pops open. The spout is a good size and easy to drink from. Best travel mug I ever owned. I use mine every day.

I found it easy to drink from without having to unscrew the whole top. The only consideration is that a small rubber piece would sometimes hit against my rather large nose so that I could need to wipe of a small brown spot that might then appear on the tip of my nose. It is not really a problem. This mug keeps my coffee very hot and never spills, even when it gets turned upside down (I usually carry it on my backpack, which gets put in strange positions in the trunk of my car or on the floors of public transit.

You will have to pour; to drink from the mug you would need to take out the inside cap (turning it); besides, the surface from which one would drink is not very smooth. Hope it helps.

I have had no experience drinking directly from this cup. It is a big mug, which I think you could drink directly from, but I have not tried it. It would be too much coffee for me, then again, with the top on it, the coffee would remain warm for a long time so I could take my time drinking it. Sorry to be vague... It's worth the try.

You are correct. You must remove the whole lid to take a drink. I was a little weary of this at first, but it is easy to drink from.

Yes, even with everything closed tight, when I purposely turned the mug upside down, the coffee spilled out the sip area. Just secure the mug in a good spot.

I own one of these. I also had this problem and read a review describing this problem= the hole in the bottom is too large, allowing the water to drain through before it can "steep" The other reviewer used one of those coffee stir straws inserted along the side into the hole to take up some room and make it drain slower. Possibly a skinny tip bamboo chopstick inserted would work, if you don't want to run all your coffee over a soft plastic straw.

Hi Susan, it is a bit of a pain, but I use the dish cloth to scrub between the threads on the lid and in the opennings on the underside of the lid. I use a pipe cleaner (scrunched up) to clean the openning from which the coffee flows. I clean mine every night, so that helps. It is painstaking work, but for me, it is worth it. Good luck.

You can drink from the cup. The infuser actually lifts up inside so you don't have to have super strong tea. Works as a tea travel mug.

That seems about right. There is a removable drainage tray that sticks out of the frount that needs to be dumped frequently, after every cup you brew. One has to dump water in for each cup. If you can afford it get a good one that you refill a resourvour with water that lasts for a few cups and you can adjust the strength and the size of the cup-this one doesn't. It was cheap and only my wife drinks coffee, not me-I didn't know better then. I do now. Good Luck!

I use it driving all the time but it doesn't have any mechanism for opening, it's a screw on top. So you have to remove the top to drink, but because it's a tall slim mug, the opening isn't so big that it spills easily. Hope that helps

This one won't do that. I got another travel mug from theculturedcup.com that should work for you. It's a new product, so you'll need to email to ask for it. The mug is made by Planetary Design. It has an infuser tube with a solid bottom section that stops brewing when you depress the French press style plunger. If you want to reinfuse your tea all you have to do is remove the plunger and add more water. Bed Bath and Beyond also carries these. The cost is about $30.

The top unscrews. It is somewhat difficult to get a off because of the design. I found it easier on the hand to take a dish towel and protect my hand while getting it started. Also, a lesson I learned the hard way is that these coffee pots are not supposed to be soaked, which of course is what I did with my first one (I have two of them) to get the label off. Good luck.

This was a Christmas gift for my son, a year ago this past Christmas. He said that the lid is the screw-on type; the sipping opening slides (doesn't flip), and that when the top of the mug is closed, you can drop the mug and it doesn't spill. My son, who is in construction, can be very hard on his tools and other possessions, so I think this is an excellent testimony to the quality of this product. Hope this info will help!

Have someone else hold the mug and then you turn the top, next time don't tighten it so much. These are the greatest mug ever but the top can be hard to remove if you are not careful in tightening it..

This happened to me, and I figured out that you have to snap the coffee into the holder until it is flush with the top of the holder, this will puncture the bottom, but you have to do that in order for it to sit correctly in the K2V cup. I hope this helps, I had coffee grounds and water everywhere. I didn't think about pushing it down, I just assumed that it would be pushed in when I closed the top of the Keurig, but it has to be pushed down first. This is only if you buy the ones that have to use an adapter, if you buy the ones that have the lip on them, they will fit without having to "snap" it in.

The lid screws on, then there is a button on top you push to open the hole to drink. You don't have to use that feature, you can just keep it open the whole time. I am actually using it now. You have to take the tray out on the mini Keurig to fit, but no big deal. I like it..I ordered 3. Wish it would keep it hot ,hot,hot the whole time....but it might be me.... I want my tea and coffee scalding hot. Does keep it hotter than a regular up, though.

I feel qualified to answer this as I have a prominent nose. The bridge of my nose hits the little flip-up thingy that stops the drinking hole from leaking. The well is deep enough so the tip of my nose doesn't hit the lid bottom where wet coffee can hang around. If you can ask him if the tip of his nose is what bothers him or the bridge of his nose, it will help refine your question. I like this mug because it doesn't have handle, sits nicely in car cup holder but I occasionally get froth on the bridge of my nose since the mug is so narrow.
