Product Description
WMF 06 8666 6790 Stainless Steel Coffee Mug - 0686666790. Stainless Steel Finish

Amazon.com Review
The Germany company WMF works with top European designers to create products for the modern home that innovatively marry style with function. Caroline Sh�fer designed this handsome coffee mug for the company's Kult collection. Made from high quality 18/10 stainless steel, the mug features a satin-finish exterior finish in keeping with a contemporary look, while the interior surprises with its mirror shine. The double-walled construction keeps coffee and tea hot without scorching lips, while the black polypropylene handle not only looks cool but stays cool.

Though fingerprints and smudges can show up now and then on stainless steel, a good wipe with a soft cloth should clean them off. The mug is also dishwasher-safe. Measuring four by three inches (excluding handle), the cup holds twelve ounces of coffee or tea. --Ann Bieri

The best I could find to meet strict criteria. March 18, 2008
I wanted a mug that: (1) was insulated, (2) held at least 12 oz., and (3) fit in a Tassimo coffee machine. This met all of the criteria, although there's not any extra room for creamer after the machine makes a 12 oz. cup. Yes, it's expensive for what you get. But it's very stylish and beautifully made. And, considering I could give up the next $10 I will frivolously spend, I'm not going to complain. I will take the other reviewer's test results as evidence of its insulating qualities. But, frankly, if they didn't add some polypropylene between the inner & outer walls, its performance vs. a ceramic mug would be laughable. If you read the reviews and make an informed decision to buy this, you will not be disappointed.

Amendment: After living with this mug for awhile I am reducing my rating to 4 stars. I thought that it's insulating qualities were somewhat suspect and, the other reviewer's exhaustive testing notwithstanding, I am of the opinion that, although "insulated", in reality it has no perceived improvement over a ceramic mug. If it had a lid, it would be better. As it is, if you want your hot liquids to stay that way, this is not the product for you. If you like your coffee hot, be prepared to drink fast.

Definitely worth it (for me) January 18, 2008
Sure, it's $25 (at the time of this review) and of course that made me hesitant at first. Realistically, however, for my purposes it really wasn't that bad. I needed a slightly more professional mug for coffee / tea / etc at work and this was perfect for my needs. It's the right size, quality, and style... and it matches the Nissan thermos I also picked up on amazon.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think I'd invest in a whole kitchen's worth of these mugs, but for what I need and the amount of use I get from it, the price isn't a worry. As an added plus, it was eligible for the 4-for-3 promotion.

Hot mug November 17, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I got this item so my coffee would not cool down so fast. It works okay for about 1/2 hour but zapping in microwave would be faster but microwave arcs on metal. I enjoy the size and comfort.

Attractive and functional November 5, 2007
4 out of 4 found this review helpful

This is a 380 ml coffee mug, a tad over 12 oz. It seems smaller so I loaded it up. Actually holds about 12.5 oz. That's the point of the review. It is exactly as advertised; for irrational reasons I thought it would be larger. It's nicely executed, durable and keeps the coffee warm for 20 -30 minutes and is very easy to clean.

And the mug gets warm, not hot to the touch. So, I tried a casual experiment. I filled the WMF Kult stainless mug, a Styrofoam cup and a standard ceramic coffee mug with water at 184F. All three were within an eight of an inch of the same diameter at the top. After 10 minutes the temperatures were 160F for the WMF Kult mug, 146F for the Styrofoam, and 139F for the ceramic. After 20 minutes 144F for WMF Kult, 130F for Styrofoam and 125F for ceramic. The 15F to 20F difference may not seem like much, but for me it means the WMF Kult cup provides tolerable coffee for an extra ten to 15 minutes. So there is some genuine insulation value.

I would have given it five stars at say $20, but at $25 it's a little on the pricey side.

Keeps it warm May 7, 2007
I chose this coffee mug for its design. My place has different stainless steel items that provides an style for its environment. This mug matches that style.

The mug design is stylish and kind of ergonomic. However, one important quality I found out only when I used it for the first time, is that the mug has a special thermal attribute that keeps coffee warm for a longer time.

It's not inexpensive, but if you love coffee, it's more than good.
