Oh, that is unfortunate. I’m surprised they haven’t fixed it by now.

No, I don’t have any experience with Frank Green products. Hopefully they don’t have the smell issue.

The slide lid is really nice, it keeps almost the same heat retention as the standard lid.

Somehow, I’ve justified a lot of Fellow products to myself haha, they are all very well designed and look so good on my counter.

They definitely aren’t the cheapest option, that’s for sure. They do their job well, and they don’t leak at all with the standard lid. The wide opening is definitely a very nice feature, it does feel more like drinking from a traditional mug.

One thing to note, and I haven’t experienced this myself, is that some people have reported that the ceramic lining can absorb some unpleasant odors. Though I think that was just the early batches, and has since been fixed.

I’m a big fan of the Fellow Carter Move mugs. They definitely keep coffee hot (or cold) for quite some time. I actually have to cool off my freshly brewed coffee before I put it in the mug if I want to drink it in without waiting a long time. There are a few lid options, but I’ve found that the standard lid and slide lid keep temperature the best. There’s also several sizes available, though the 20oz is listed as a cold mug, it’ll work with the hot lids.

I realize I sound like a shill for the brand, but I just really like the mugs haha.

Looks like that is a home brew cap of some sort.
