TOAKS Titanium 450ml Double Wall Cup

Bought this back in mid 2018, and have used it every day since then. Every day.I have used it for everything. Coffee, tea,water, hot soups and stews both homemade and freeze dried, milk, wine, beer, and cocktails. Absolutely no aftertaste or odor of anything previously filled with.I've done taste tests where I drink the same water from this cup clean, and then from some poured into my steel thermos, a growler, a friend's nalgene bottle, a regular empty commercial chain single use plastic bottle, and a glass bottle. This cup and the glass tasted like water side by side, everything else tasted faintly of steel, petrochemicals, and previous usage of beer, milk, sometimes soups and even rust. And I'm not someone in possession of a sensitive palate.But yeah, the hype surrounding the lack of taste to titanium is real, and I ended up getting a titanium water bottle because of it. A light rinsing after you've used it and you're pretty much good to go. You will find the lip where there is space underneath the smooth weld will require the most attention when cleaning.I travel with it in my bag, often with a rolled camping air mattress placed inside for the possibility of having to sleep in an airport.It is fairly big, with a proportionately short body to the wide mouth. Very light, considering. Because of the width, heat will escape quickly unless you use a lid, my choice being some generic silicone one. Quite frankly it's more for being able to handle a boiling hot mug with no gloves and not burning your lips than really holding in heat. It will definitely keep your drinks warmer than single wall for longer, but not by too much. But purchasing a lid for it is essential and adds to the cost.Even if you use a lid, the contents will cool fairly quickly as titanium absorbs heat. I will 'prime' the mug by filling it with boiling water to bring it about to a hotter inner diameter temperature before making pour over coffee in it or adding any hot beverage. This helps a lot.It shines when it comes to keeping drinks cool. I've spent time in tropical temperatures with it outside and it will absolutely keeps ice for extremely long periods of time. We're talking hours. The titanium will 'sweat' a little, but not by much. You would still need a coaster for a wooden surface and even then a thin one, but it's not like a single walled titanium cup where an ice cold beverage means it's surrounded by a puddle after a few minutes.The handles are removable, and may be a reason why some have reported discrepancies between advertised and actual weight. Since they are removable, they can easily be modified by adding tape, silicone tubing, or wooden dowels to get a better grip.Dropped it a lot, empty and full: No dents.Exterior is slightly textured, but can still accept metallic/reflective/plastic tape for customization with no loss of adhesion years later. Logo is fairly subdued, but since I am personally marketing averse I easily buffed it away with fine grain sandpaper with no marring to the finish.It's still quite big though, and I may decide to get the 375ML version as it can nest in other products I have.All in all, very pleased with it. For what I paid for it, and the amount of use I've gotten from it, even though I had to buy a lid for it separately I consider it a worthwhile purchase. This is a Buy It For Life item, and I keep it in the back of my mind as a possible gift for friends.

I purchased this cup last year for the trail. It work!!! It is super light weight and holds the heat! I have only good things to say, Zero negative!!!

Just fantastic ! I have been wanting one of these for quite some time and i finally bought one. For starters it is not a $50 mug, the price is great, but it is of the same quality as those $50 versions. As for the weight, it's feather light and will be perfect for anyone's pack. The mesh bag is also a thing of beauty, it is a little rubbery feeling, really thick, and should do a fantastic job protecting the mug. It will be nice to finally have a double walled mug, no more burning your lips off trying to enjoy some coffee or hot coco around the fire. Even the box is nice to look at, lol.I just love this thing, and i know you will too !

It keeps my coffee hot longer than the single wall cup and doesn't get scalding hot. I don't like the price, but I wanted titanium.

Great cup. Loses a star for dishonesty in advertising. A big selling point of a cup this price; made of Ti, is the weight. This should not be in dispute. The info on this item states a weight of 4.7oz, 132g. The tag included with it goes further - "Item No. CUP-450-DW ... 3.25oz (92g)"Actual weight of the cup I received was 5.19oz, 147g

I love this, just the right size and boiling liquids will not burn your hands in this cup. Also helps to keep heat in the cup.

The 450ml Titanium double wall Toaks cup fits the "Klean Kanteen Tumbler Lid, Black, One Size" perfectly! The rim of the cup is recessed unlike the single wall cups and the Klean Kanteen lid snugly rests inside. The cup/lid is NOT spillproof as the lid has a sipping hole which stay open and a small vent hole. I got the Snow Peak Hot Lips (not pictured) to go with it.

It sucked in liquid into the walls of the cup and sloshed around... I submerged the entire cup to find a bubbling leak, but found nothing. Ended up poking a tiny hole in the bottom and heating it to evaporate the liquid out of the inside of the walls of the cup... It was stinky as hell.I was out trekking and couldn't send it back at the time... threw it away when I got home. I wont be buying anything else from TOAKS.

Lip of mug is square stepped as shown in this photo.

Light weight cup that keeps your beverage hot without burning through to your hand.

Great for camping.

it's a very good product, it's light, tough, and usefull. the only thing i have to say is that the only time i used it on a burner the bottom inflated and now it's not stable on flat surface anymore...
