Don't sleep on the inner ceramic coating

I really enjoy this mug. The mechanism to open and close the Carter Slide Lid's sipping aperture is tactile and satisfying. I've come to really love the inner ceramic coating, which does a tremendous job of keeping the metallic taste out of my coffee. The thermal performance is also excellent, with my drink remaining warm from 9AM until 3PM each day.
This mug is amazing. So sleek and easy to cary around. The taste of coffee does stick to the inside of the ceramic walls, but if you use it just for coffee, that's just fine.
The perfect mug! If it’s possible to love a mug consider me in love! This ticks all the boxes. Stylish with great heat retention. Totally leak proof, and the shorter chubby size makes it really stable and far less likely to be accidentally tipped over. Did I mention style? This exudes style!
I originally got this because the Carter Move was advertised as not being able to fit an Aeropress, which I since created an adapter to fit.
I don't particularly like the Wide because: * inconvenient to drink from, have to remove and stow the lid, * the smallest size, 12oz, is way bigger than the most my aeropress can produce (the 8oz move is more than enough to contain my aeropress results). * it's wide (duh), so it doesn't fit in cup holders, and is hard to hold well in one hand
In terms of positives, the insulation, thin lip, and porcelain lining are what attracted me to the product. It also fits an aeropress without an adapter, but since I made an adapter, the wide is pretty useless for me.
This mug mostly sits around unused for me, unfortunately. It only comes out when I go to a cafe that will fill it up with a nice drip coffee, which is next to never.
I love the size of the carter mug in my hands and how easy it is to clean. So despite it being a little large for cup holders, I can readily forgive that. It feels great to drink from, and I love the colors.
Thank you for a good product and good service. I take my Fellow Mug everywhere. It fits my tote or hand and it is 16 ozs to see me through wake up and early morning. You BRING comfort to my life.
