Since this is made of stainless steel, doesn't it get hot on the lips when taking a sip from hot beverage?

Absolutely not. The exterior stays cool even with boiling water. Hot drinks stay that way for longer than with a ceramic mug though, so be aware of that.

This is the best cup I have ever owned in my life. It does not get hot or cold on the lip of the cup when drinking from the cup. The lip of the cup is actually one of my favorite parts of the cup because it is so smooth and the shape and thickness of the lip of the cup is very comforting. What amazes me most about this cup is that I have filled it with ice and topped with water and drank it on the way to work on hot summer Georgia days. The amazing thing is I can leave the leftover ice and water in the cup all day long in the car in the hot summer, and when I come back out at 6PM, there is still some ice in the cup and the water is ICY cold. This is WITHOUT any kind of lid on the cup...and it is probably 120 degrees during the day in my car! I also love that this cup never feels hot or cold in the hand and it never leaves any kind of condensation on the outside of the cup or water rings on my furniture.

i usually drink ice water from mine, never noticed if it was "cold" compared to glass or plastic . . one nice thing is that it doesn't "sweat" (granted I'm in SoCal, glass and uninsulated stainless will sweat some). I own two of these and I always grab this before my pint style glasses, I will probably buy another one or two so there is always a clean one, despite the expense.

I think the stainless steel definitely keeps the liquid hotter longer. Plus it cleans up easier/better and doesn't hold onto flavors like the plastic ones tend to.

Yes, you can . . . but, if it's a hot (and even an immsely cold) drink, like coffee, ytou might want to be very careful. I have no idea how quickly liquid will flow out of this tumbler without the silicone lid on. Plus, metal's a good conductor of heat AND of cold -- as ye olde physics classes have taught us yes -- so you might not want to give your lips a scalding surprise. Use the silicone lid for its ultimate coolness is my advice. Not a stupid question at all Hyok.

It gets warm but not hot. I often pour boiling water in mine just as I'm walking out the door and never have a problem with it getting too hot to hold. Drink yes; hold no.

it is shaped for your lips, and when you tip it back it flows evenly but not in a rush of liquid...which is good because it keeps coffee screamin' hot!

I think I know what you mean....where the mug gets scalding, and not because the liquid is hot? In my experience, the liquid gets the mug warm, not that the mug gets hot from being microwaved. The handle is still quite comfortable, and the outside is warm but not ragingly hot.

Yes the stainless part is hot on the outside. But you can always hold the plastic handle.

Having never owned the stainless steel one I cannot compare them. But I can tell you that this model will keep hot beverages hot for at least 4 hours or so.

yes, the only issue I found with it, you need to heat the cup up with hot water and even then, it doen't stay as warm as other mugs. But I love glass over plastic. The aluminium travel cups from Thermos aren't plastic and they keep drinks hot for longer.

I've only used it for cold drinks. It's heavy stainless steel so would assume it would keep hot too.

In my opinion, this is designed to keep already hot beverages warm. I don't think you will get positive results attempting to actually warm from this. It does get hot but not hot enough to warm water.Hope this is helpful.

Do NOT use the Stainless Steel Straws on HOT drinks. They conduct cold and heat very well. If the drink is just warm they should work well. I also bought a Straw Cleaning Brush for easy cleaning of the stainless steel straw. To avoid using the brush, I will immediately rinse the straw running hot soapy water down it then rinsing with, as hot of water as I can stand. If you let the straw sit allowing the smoothing ingredients to harden inside the straw then the brush is essential to proper cleaning. --------------------------------------------------------------- I am on Twitter.com/@PoetPatriot Tweeting of Faith, Poetry, Inspirational & other Quotes, Conservative Politics, and occasional other subjects.

Yes, and really keeps it hot.....at least 5 hours later it is still almost to hot to drink. Just leave the lid off for 10 minutes to let it cool.

All insulated steel bottles can keep liquids hot as well as cold. I didn't try it on this bottle but have tried it on others. Though the only thing I'd caution about is sipping hot liquids from a straw. So make sure you only POUR super hot liquids out of this bottle, or fill with warm liquids which won't burn you when you sip through the straw.

Yes the interior is stainless steel and the cover with th siping whole is plastic so the drink will touch it.

It doesn't. The mouth piece is solid, however, it has something inside that prevents it from leaking.

Stainless is on the inside, prob. why it keeps the coffee so hot for so long,right?
