I Am Not a Plastic Cup Plastic Acrylic Tumbler ECO CUP on Ice with Straw Review

I Am Not a Plastic Cup Plastic Acrylic Tumbler ECO CUP on Ice with Straw
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a great cup! It really doesn't sweat at all and is very sturdy. The lid screws on so it is almost leakproof (not completely because of the straw, of course). I like that the straw has a little bulge at the bottom, to keep it from coming completely through the lid and falling out. Overall, this cup is even better than I expected. I do wish it came in a smaller size than 16 oz, but that's not a big deal.
In case you're wondering, the cup is completely clear with no logo (one of those pictured appears to have the "eco cup" logo on it").

Starbucks Ceramic Travel Tumbler Review

Made of porcelain, very heavy. I believe 12oz is actually a tall at Starbucks but this cup definitely has the *outside* dimensions of a grande. The sides are slightly rounded so it takes away from the authenticity and the black lid should've been white. Be careful when washing because it gets very slippery. Lids locks tight, no leaks at all.

The Eco Coffee Cup Set/3 Ceramic Cups With Silicone Lids & Sleeves 12oz Review

The Eco Coffee Cup Set/3 Ceramic Cups With Silicone Lids and Sleeves 12oz
Average Reviews:

I received a set of three as a gift and was very excited, as I've been looking at similar ceramic travel mugs for a while. The mug keeps my tea hot for the 20 minute commute into work and isn't stained easily when I accidentally leave my tea leaves in the bottom for the night.
The downside of this cup is the silicone used in the lid and grip. It smells when it comes in contact with warm/hot liquids and despite a soak in diluted vinegar, retains this odor after a week of washing and use. Both the teal and brown color (sleeve and matching lid) smell of a distinctive "this is some chemical that will taste horrible and totally ruin the enjoyment of your tasty beverage" from ~ 10 inches away when heated. I can't imagine sipping through the lid with this one and this limits the on-the-go aspect. Mine basically transports tea from my home to my work, when I remove the lid and drink from just the cup. Perhaps washing the lid with lemon juice will help as suggested in other similar cup reviews.
My lids seem to fit snugly and the cup has a lip, similar to real coffee cups. Just be sure to take care to pop the lid on all the way and run your finger around the outside to ensure everything is snug. The flexible lid makes it easy to pop one side on and not notice that the other side isn't entirely secure. There's no "snap" sound like plastic lids would give. I don't know if the lid leaks when drinking from it. Even if I am able to get rid of the smell, I'm not sure I trust that it is safe... food grade silicone probably shouldn't smell like this when warm. I might just replace it with a smell-free "Magic lid", basically an airtight lid that looks like a flat round stopped that seals the mug through pressure.
Have not yet opened the lime green cup or microwaved mine.

Aladdin Recycled and Recyclable 16-Ounce Mug, Green Review

It took me a LONG time to find a coffee mug that was dishwasher safe, was BPA free, didn't leak and kept coffee hot on my husband's commute to work. I don't remember how I stumbled upon these mugs, but they fit the bill to a tee. I bought 4 of these mugs and my husband says they are great. We highly recommend them.
