Can this mug handle zero spill? I need something that can take a drive up and down hills and curved roadways without spilling.

Absolutely 100 %, no need to worry, you could take it up in the Cyclone in Coney Island, ...not one drop will get spilled, ...beautiful product.

This is the best sealing thermos I have ever had. No worries about spills with the cap in place and the cup also attached.

Mine does not spill at all once you put top cap on and make sure it is tight in place.

I don't have a thermos brand mug but this one' slid is a little more detailed to take apart and clean but it has never leaves uncontrollably on my. I sometimes let it roll around on the floor of the truck I drive and it's not leaked. The 16oz stays hot longer than the 29oz. And the 16 doesn't tip over in my pickup cup holder like the taller 20oz one does. Neither leak. ~love em!!!

No. That has to be the only drawback to this mug. It has to be the most durable mug ever. My husband takes this mug with him everyday on his morning walk (sometimes the temp is below freezing) and his coffee stays hot.

I keep an old toothbrush at the sink and dab a little dish soap on it to clean the lid inside and outside when I see dried coffee stains on it and then wash or rinse the interior of the mug like I would any glass or drinking container. I have two of these mugs and wouldn't do without them. One note, In the car, if you have a cup holder console between the front seats be sure it is deep enough to hold the mug, or you may tip the mug over while driving. Overall height is 8 inches and it can easily tip over in a console if the console isn't deep enough.

No, not at all. I clean it with a bottle-type brush, which works great. My only complaint on this mug is that it doesn't seal well, so if you tip it, your drink spills easily. Have to push down plug in drink opening hard to seal, and not sure that makes it spill-proof. Otherwise, I really like it...

Yes it is. We are on our second mug like this (first one was run over by the SUV) and my wife loves it!

I love these mugs! Yes, if it was laying upside down, etc., it will definitely leak. It's i tended to be upright because there's an opening from which you drink that can't be closed.I was totally in love with the Big Bubba mugs because you can close off the drinking opening. B-u-t when you use on the road and taking a sip it dribbles all over you!!!

Absolutely!!! I've fortunately more then on one occasion locked the top...which requires a simple twist of the top lever...then gone on to have knocked the entire mug (unintentionally of course) onto the carpet getting ready to go into a panic but soon realizing that PRESTO...the damn works...not a drop escaped. I've not loaded the mug to the max then locked it and turned it upside down but I trust it would withstand the test. If I do it sometime I'll keep you posted but for a 2/3 full mug of coffee it passed the test just fine....not that it was ever a test.

Sorry, I didn't keep this mug because I didn't like the stainless cover. it affected the taste. Ended up buying a Thermos stainless steel mug that is really good. Even though it is tall, when it tumbles it does not leak. We have two cars and it can tumble in one.

Unless you have an extra large one, we use the stainless steel travel mugs all the time. Different brands, so for us, it's great. Plus, this model has the curved lever, not the straight one of the other model, so you can even tilt mug if you needed to and no spills.

no this mug is very easy to use and I get no coffee drips from it while I drive. My only problem with it is it does not keep coffee hot very long

Inertia! And turn it over fast! I flip it when I get outside but usually no spills. My cats drink from it too, I have it sitting on table... good luck!

Yes spill proof with slide lock in lid.. has car plug in not sure about computer? My husband and both have one we love it so far...keeps coffee right temp without burning

Yes, I didn't find Contigo to be leak proof, although it is a good mug. I throw the Zojirushi in my bag and it hasn't leaked!

hmmm... never thought of using this for that purpose.... but I would say yes. I wouldn't trust it to not spill if it was knocked around; but if you are putting it somewhere just to sit, then yes. I think this could handle it. You may want to ask your local grocery store deli if they have any empty oil containers you may have. My husband got one from our Food Lion for his oil. Good luck!

I wouldn't think it would be safe for long journeys. It is well made and the cap is absolutely leak proof but god forbid even a small fender bender would turn disasterous if this can got damaged. I would seek a metal can used for off road use. Yes it would be more but I think well worth it. For my short trips to gas station and storage in the garage this is perfect good luck

As others have noted, it depends on how hot the liquid is to begin with, the air temperature around the mug, and what you consider hot enough. We've tried a variety of mugs, including Cuisinart and Aladdin. This mug is hands-down better than all of them, in terms of ease of use without spills, convenience and keeping liquids hot. On road trips in a 72 degree car, coffee has remained pleasingly hot (to us) for about four hours, OK for a bit longer. This is about twice as long as any others we've used.
