    Not what I expected

    By Coffeeman

    About Me Casual Adventurer

    • Durable

    Cons

    • Bad insulation

    Comments about REI Bell Traveler with Clip Grip:

    Like everyone said -- the insulation sucks (I'll get a good 45 minutes of WARMTH, maybe 15-20 of HOT) but the worst part, in my opinion, is that the logo melts off. It feels gross on my hand, though I haven't seen it stain any of my stuff yet. Money would be better spent on a proper thermos.

    Keeps Tea Warm

      Comments about REI Bell Traveler with Clip Grip:

      For years I looked for a mug/thermos that didn't come with a notice saying something to the effect that "this thermos is not intended to keep hot liquids hot." When I found this mug, saying it was intended to keep liquids hot, I jumped on it. The first time I poured boiling water into it, the logo got sticky and I am in the process of scraping it off. Otherwise, it is just what I wanted. I pour boiling water in it, and with the lid open, my tea stays drinkably warm for 2 hours or more. Granted, I don't like scalding hot tea, it takes 10-15 minutes before tea made in a ceramic mug is cool enough for me to enjoy. I haven't used the clip, but the handle wiggles, so I am curious how long it will be before it breaks. I don't care about the logo, but I think that if the cup has one, it should be of good quality. Bottom line: I have used this cup everyday since I bought it.

      Comments about REI Bell Traveler with Clip Grip:

      I was expecting a top of the line mug for the [$] I spent for it. Unfortunately, this didn't live up to expectations. My coffee was cold after a short (15-minute) car trip. It didn't insulate or keep the beverage hot at all! I agree with other reviewers about the black REI logo becoming sticky. It got very sticky almost immediately when I poured hot coffee into it. In the end, I returned this mug and got my money back. I went [$] and got two great mugs for the same price as the 1 mug at REI. The [...]mugs kept my coffee hot for hours! Don't buy this item- it's not worth the money.

      GREAT mug, weak handle

      Comments about REI Bell Traveler with Clip Grip:

      Overall very good design. I had NO problems with the thermal resistance capabilities. It kept my hot coffee delicous for quite some time and the handle was comfortable to hold. The flip top lid locks securely in place and has an opening big enough to make it easy to sip. The screw top lid stays on very securely as well. The metal sidewall construction is rugged yet lightweight and takes a beating. The wide mouth design makes it easy to clean, but the narrow bottom diameter makes it easy to use in your car as well. My only issue is that the clip on handle is weak, bends alot, and easily comes unclipped, so be sure to stow this cup INSIDE your backpack.

      good design -insulation defective

      By jack

      from Terre Haute, IN

      About Me Casual Adventurer

      Pros

      • Design of lid

      Cons

      • Defective insulation

      Best Uses

      • Car Camping

      Comments about REI Bell Traveler with Clip Grip:

      I was excited to find a mug that fit the Ram mount cup holder that goes in our car/camper etc. The shape and size are good. The non spill lid works great. The double wall insulation is defective. I purchased the first one in Chicago (4 1/2 hr drive). The outside of the mug got hot soon after pouring in hot liquid. Assuming this was a chance defect and after talking to the store (very helpful and nice) I ordered a replacement with the intent to return defect via mail. Well, the replacement has the same issue. One other time when we purchased 2 identical mugs from a coffee house one worked great the other didn't. Seems to be an issue with the vacuum insulation and QC.

        I tested this mug with 1 cup of boiling water after 30 minutes. At 132 degrees, it didn't do very well. My REI plastic Insulated Mug stayed hotter, 144 degrees, and my Nissan Vacuum mug did even better, 154 degrees.

          Comments about REI Bell Traveler with Clip Grip:

          I was looking for a mug to replace the REI vacuum tea infuser (which is bomb)...I liked the clip handle and shape. But after a week it was clear that this product was poorly made. The clip handle became loose, the REI logo got all gummy and gross, color chipping off, and it's insulation is virtually nil.

          I still use it but won't be sad if I loose it.

          Comments about REI Bell Traveler with Clip Grip:

          I would rate this as a great product, but there is something in the design that makes it very easy to dribble when the cup is less than about half full. i've had quite a few other travel mugs over the years. i like every other feature about this product, but this is a big con.

            I use this product for my daily drip, and love the tight seal. My only gripe with this product is the black REI logo box, which has started smearing off, leaving a black gummy residue on anything that touches it. This happened even though I hand-wash the mug.
