CamelBak Forge Flow 16 oz Coffee & Travel Mug, Insulated Stainless Steel – Non-Slip Silicon Base – Easy One-Handed Operation

Favorite water bottle replacement
I usually just use it for water but it keeps my water nice and cold and it’s also the perfect size for mixing in flavored water packets that I use to hide the taste of my creatine and other supplements. I’ve never had a spill (though you do have to be careful to let the lid close while still drinking so you don’t leave the liquid on the outside of the seal). I also really like that the bottom is padded with rubber so it doesn’t make a bunch of noise when I set it down. I liked this so much that I purchased a second one to leave at work. So one goes back and forth from home with me in the car and the other stays at the office to get water from the cooler to avoid wasting water bottles or cups.

Leaks, unlocks accidentally, lid stains
I am so sad, but I hate the new design. It does keep coffee hot, and the powder coating on the mug part is an improvement over the old painted metal, as the paint wore off, but other than that, it is horrible.I had an original forge, and it was the best. It never leaked, stayed closed, was just functional. I don’t know why they thought a design change was needed. After 15 years of solid performance, I dropped my original forge and cracked the lid. Initially I tried to get a lid replacement, and to the company’s credit, they sent me 2 new lids for free. Unfortunately, they were the new style and did not fit on my old mug. So I decided it was time to order new mugs. I ordered 3 new mugs since I couldnt decide on one size or color, and they all have the same issues:Coffee leaks out the back. I constantly have it dripping down my hand, it leaves rings of coffee on my desk, it drips on my shirt and pants. It is horrible.There is new a locking mechanism that allows you to lock it open. This is just stupid. If I wanted it to stay open, I would by a different style of mug. But fine, maybe some people want this option. The problem is that the lock will inadvertently slide over without my knowledge, locking it in the open position. Twice I have dumped coffee all over because I thought it was closed. Once the entire contents drained onto my bed before I noticed. If this is going to be an option, the lock should require some pressure to slide open, it should not be so loose it happens unintentionally.The part that slides back and forth on the lid used to be hollow In the middle and made from a smooth plastic. The new one is solid and flat, and made from a rough plastic. Why does this matter? I am a woman who wears makeup. The new version means the top part presses against my nose when I take a drink, and my makeup rubs of on it, ruining my makeup. The makeup also stains the lid, and the new style plastic does not come clean. They old style easily wiped clean. There is a dot of makeup staining the lid on all 3 that will not come clean.I regret purchasing 3, I miss the old version, it was my ideal travel mug. I cannot recommend this mug.

This is version two of this cup. I have 10+ of the version one of this cup. Love it so much.
When they stopped making the version 1 of this cup. I needed one and paid $100 for it, because I have never found a cup that has all of these features.* It keeps hot drinks hot all day. By the end of the day, while still not hot the hot drink will be warm.* It keeps cold drinks cold all day.* It has a sipping lip, so when you have a hot drink, you don’t burn your lip.* When you remove the lid from the container, and press the lever, the whole thing opens up to clean* It has a lock, if you want to keep it in open modeOne hint, when using with hot liquids. keep the cup straight up (not pointing to your face) and press the lever, then tip and drink. The first drink will have built up pressure, and you could get a surprise!

Gen II Camelbak Forge — new and improved 🙂
This is a replacement for a much used and abused “original” Forge, which hit the concrete one too many times after years of service. The new cup is a 16 oz. size, “Dune” color (if that matters), and I have had it for a couple of weeks. I like it a lot — my go-to travel coffee cup. It keeps coffee hot for a couple of hours — my coffee is all gone by then. It is great for ice water — and seems to keep that cold even longer than hot liquids. The lock-open feature is a slide on the open trigger. That is WAY better than the original’s method. At first, I did not like the rubber non-slip pad on the bottom, but after a few weeks it seems like a nice feature. The finish seems durable, but time will tell. Overall, completely satisfied! Thanks for reading.
