Like many moms, my coffee goes cold before I get more than a sip out of it. I wanted to try one of these fancy mugs and it did not disappoint. My only initial reservation was that it might be too hot to the touch if my toddler accidentally grabbed the cup. Even though my coffee inside the cup is a nice 140°, the plastic on the outside of the cup is not hot to the touch. My toddler could bring me my cup if he needed to and that is important.
