I have one of these, it's sweet. Holds about the same amount of liquid as a medium coffee from Tim Horton's.

The zoom is getting a little stiff, but otherwise it's solid. Kind of hard to wash though.

sweet. Was looking for one a while ago and ebay went all crazy before Christmas with $50 or more.

God, don't drink from this mug. Finally go it after back ordered for almost a month.

The stainless steel is low grade and I think I got chemical burn on my lips drinking from it. The plastic fume should have been a warning.

Now I have lips of Angelina Jolie. Fuck it hurts.

On my old (non-zoom version), you could take the back cap off and unscrew the 'SS' part. I left it in the diswasher for a few weeks and that got rid of the fork taste.

^ Thanks, just saw it. I'm going to soak this for weeks before trying again.
