Super stable, Stanley quality
Anyone whose father used a ‘lunchbox’ to take meals to work, probably saw a large Stanley Thermos in use everyday. They seemed to be standard equipment for most blue collar workers, lasted forever and never failed to pour a hot cup of coffee when needed.Fast forward to today: I don’t often need a large Thermos, as I do office work and only camp or work outside occasionally. But I DO need a solid cup. My cup normally sits next to my computer and has a very low profile. The wide base keeps it upright even when it gets bumped as I sometimes misjudge the distance a bit.It has only gone camping with me a few times. It keeps a beverage the temp you want and seals nicely. The odd shape makes packing a challenge unless you hang it on a carabiner or use a paracord sling. The handle is large enough to use even with work gloves on. I haven’t tried winter gloves yet, but you should be able to get a good grip regardless.It might be me, but I find many cup lids have a tendency to dribble or drip when I drink from them, especially as they age and the seals loosen. Not so here. The lid is screws in tight and doesn’t dribble when you drink from it.This is not a ‘cupholder’ sized cup. Its’ rubberized bottom is designed to sit on flat surfaces and stay put. I can verify that it sits nicely on multiple brands of pickup truck hoods without scratching or marring the finish of the city trucks. That’s not normally a concern for ‘country’ trucks…..Good cup, works as advertised and seems well built. The rubber bottom might eventually tear or crack, but there are no signs of breakdown yet.I can only hope it lasts as long as my Dad’s Thermos.

Keeps my drink hot for hours
Love my Admirals cup. Kept my drink hot for hours and I love the 20oz capacity. Great quality and i’m sure I will be using it for many years to come.

Sturdy and solid, great mug
Ordered all the way from Europe, as the same mug is more than twice as expensive here. It arrived safely and in good shape, and it does what it’s supposed to do: keep my tea warm while I’m working. I filled it up two hours ago and I still have to be careful while drinking, it’s still that hot . It’s a good idea to press your nose against the little hole so the hot drink doesn’t come out so fast :-)Very happy with my purchase, as is my keyboard (no more knocked over cups).

Works Great!
I like size, color, function and that it stays put due to rubber bottom. Holds heat and cold well. A bit awkward to drink from.

Great cup but handle isn’t quite tall enough for an Admiral…
The cup looks great, especially in the vintage green I remember from my dad’s thermos. It does indeed hold 20oz even though it looks like it wouldn’t. I put some ice water in it, and it didn’t sweat, so the vacuum is intact. The flip cap is pretty tight, as some other reviewers have mentioned. I’m hoping it will loosen up just a little over time. My biggest gripe is that the handle isn’t quite tall enough for a man’s hand (it’s about 2.5″ clearance for your fingers), and you have to put your pinkie finger underneath. Not a huge deal, but another quarter to half inch taller would have made the grip more comfortable. It has a wide rubber base, so it won’t slide around, nor will it tip over. Overall I’m pleased, and hoping it will last as long as dad’s thermos, especially for the price. Note, I’ve heard Stanley doesn’t offer a replacement for the lid, so I’m hoping to find an aftermarket lid that may fit in case it ever breaks. Also, the handle is attached with security torx screws. Since most people don’t have these bits, if the screws ever loosen as per some negative reviews, you will need to purchase a cheap set of bits, and use a bit of loctite to reinstall them. I’ll update this review if I ever run into issues.

Awesome mug-with one little annoying issue
Almost 6 month review:This is a quality product. Itâs well made, and most importantly, itâs short, squat profile ensures that I donât accidentally knock my coffee over. Itâs not fitting in any cup holder, but with its grippy base, I can stick it anywhere and itâs not easily slipping off.The one problem I have had, and itâs kind of needlessly annoying, is that the handle is secured to the cup with T10 Torx security screws. And my handle has gotten a little loose. This meant I had to go and buy a Security Torx bit set just to fix my wobbly handle. I was able to fine a cheap set on Temu, but there is no legitimate reason to make it this hard for us to tighten the handle. Screws used to secure the handle to the cup should be common kinds you donât have to go out of your way to find.

Very stable
Keeps coffee hot. Bought because my husband has tremors in his hand and it is sometimes easy for him to tip over his cup. The bottom is much bigger than the top thus it is stable.Update: coffee maker stopped heating water and hot plate on carafe side. Less than 2 months of use. Reached out to the manufacturer and after proving where, what, when, and how much I paid, Keurig promised replacement. Hopefully it will be here next week! Glad I kept my old Bunn!

Most spill proof cup ever!
Love this cup. I drive a forklift at work and it never slides off or falls and/or rolls off. I finally had to buy a new one because you cannot order a replacement top.

LLego muy rapido sin embargo el envase venia solo en una caja, no traia nada que lo protegiera y llego a mi punto de vista maltrado, en otros envios les ponen algo para que los protega , en este no fue el caso
