Drinks stay hot or cold for up to seven hours in this insulated, double-walled, stainless-steel travel mug from OXO. Plus, three silicone seals in the lid opening prevent leaks and drips from spoiling clothes on the way to work. One hand is all that’s needed to operate this mug: a button in the middle of the lid opens the drinking seal (a red background alerts the user to its open position); and then closes the device. Letting a few seconds lapse before closing will allow liquid in the spout area to drain back inside, thus preventing drips.

The sleek, brushed-finish, stainless-steel body of the mug fits any standard car cup holder. OXO’s signature soft, non-slip material rings the mug neck, allowing for a secure grip when drinking or unscrewing the contoured lid. The mug holds 14 ounces–room for a double-tall latte with extra foam. A marked ‘max’ line inside prevents over-filling. Preheating or pre-chilling the mug is recommended for increased insulation value. For best results, wash the mug by hand after each use. OXO backs all its products with a satisfaction warranty, and will replace or refund any returned item. –Ann Bieri

Easy to use, but hard to clean
I bought this mug on the recommendation of many people - and it IS easy to use and seems to be leak proof, but am thinking it will be hard to clean. The mug breaks down into to pieces, the lid and the mug, but there’s no way to take the lid apart to really clean it. Just called the company to ask if I was missing something, but was told that no, the lid doesn’t come apart, and they recommend washing it immediately after us, or at least rinsing out the lid when finished. Easy to say, harder for me to do - I tend to forget to clean it out right away and would have liked something that I could take apart and scrub when it gets gross.

Stinky rubber grip and difficult to clean but works GREAT otherwise
I have an older model that is very similar to this. The design is basically the same.

After about a week of use I started smelling mold really strongly. After using bleach and really hot water to no avail, i finally figured it out. It wasn’t mold at all. It was the rubber grip that was obviously made of some kind of stinky silicone rubber. The stink must have intensified when I got it hot in the dishwasher.

Solution? I simply cut the grip ring off (This is a really easy process - just pull on the grip until you can get some scissors under it. It’s not glued down.) I’ve been stink-free ever since! I love my mug!

I regularly wash it in the dishwasher once a week and I always rinse it out when I get home from work each day. Tip: Make sure to leave the valve clicked open when placing it in the dishwasher. I also remove the rubbe o-ring seal to help water get to every spot. It’s really easy to remove and replace and I’ve not damaged it after at least a hundred washes.

No leaks!
Each morning, I throw my mug in my bag and commute either by el train or by bike. It’s very important to me that the cup not leak so I have tested many mugs. The Oxo good grips has not leaked yet, keeps my coffee nice and warm, and looks stylish too.

Amazon.com Product Description
Equipped with an 18-bar pump and 1450-watt stainless-steel-lined thermoblock heating system, this Jura-Capresso 13332 Impressa J5 automatic coffee and espresso center can produce cup after cup of coffee with no down time in between. The Jura-Capresso 13332 Impressa J5 machine’s unique two-step pre-infusion cycle ensures every brew delivers optimal flavor extraction and a creamy crema layer. In the first stage, freshly ground coffee gets compressed, then injected with a small burst of hot water, causing the moist grounds to expand. In the second stage, brewing water courses through the engorged coffee grounds.

This user-friendly appliance combines not only powerful performance, but also a simple, elegant design with easy-to-use controls. Its front panel offers six buttons in the shape of a ring: two buttons for espresso (single and double), two for coffee (single and double), one for hot water, and one for steam. All of these functions are individually programmable. For example, the strength, temperature, and size of each of the coffee buttons can be set, as can the amount of water delivered in a hot water cycle, and the amount of time a steam cycle lasts. The 10-digit alpha-numeric LCD display clearly communicates all functions and settings in any one of five languages. The top of the unit provides three more controls: two buttons (one for power, the other for maintenance) and an illuminated rotary control dial for overriding any settings for coffee and steam. Choose from 11 programming options by pushing the integrated rotary button.

The Jura-Capresso 13332 Impressa J5 also showcases several other innovative features. Its new ceramic-valve technology shortens the flow of coffee, resulting in a hotter temperature and more crema in the cup. The Jura-Capresso 13332 Impressa J5 machine’s three hot-water temperature settings produce a hotter Cafe Americano, pre-warm coffee cups faster, and accommodate a larger variety of tea preparation. It also provides a dual, butterfly, coffee-spout design that moves up/down and in/out to accommodate a larger range of cups.

Other highlights include a commercial-grade, solid-steel conical burr grinder with six fineness settings and low-noise operation; a 9-ounce bean container with aroma cover and low-level bean indicator; a self-adjusting brewing chamber, which holds from 5 to 16 grams of ground coffee to make up to two 8-ounce cups of coffee at a time; a sensor-activated pre-ground coffee funnel; a clock/timer with programmable auto-on and auto-off capabilities; and a 71-ounce removable water container with a Clearyl water-filtration system and low-water indicator. Even more, the machine provides two interchangeable frother systems, which include a Dual Frother Plus for manual operation and a frothXpress for automatic frothing and steaming. A concealed compartment neatly stores the measuring scoop and the Dual Frother Plus attachment. The coffee and espresso center measures 16-1/2 by 11 by 13-1/4 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

I love our Jura-Capresso 13332 Impressa J5
When we have already owned or used several Jura Capresso Automatic Coffee Centers, it is difficult to come up with more superlatives. This Jura-Capresso 13332 Impressa J5 machine is at or near the top of our experience with many European coffee machines. It grinds fresh coffee beans, tamps automatically either one cup or two cups worth, then brews the coffee to our own taste and measure, then disposes of the used coffee grounds,in less than 30 seconds. From bean to cup espresso, coffee, cappucino, cafe latte, and even makes hot water for tea, faster than a microwave.
What a great Swiss invention. Completely programable and infinitely adjustable for coffee fanatics. Simple enough for the rest of us.

Phenomenal value in an elegant machine
Where to begin? This machine can do it all, from a strong shot of espresso to a flawless cappuccino, all in under minute. If you can tie your shoes, you can use one of these machines.

I looked in to this Jura-Capresso 13332 Impressa J5 machine after using an older Capresso model at a friend’s house. I was always impressed by how easily and quickly he could make a variety of drinks for guests, not to mention the quality of their appearance and flavor.

This Jura-Capresso 13332 Impressa J5 machine comes with two different frothing systems, one is a more traditional bullet style frother, while the other can automatically steam or froth milk. This is where the J5 really shines. In no time you can froth yourself milk that would make the most seasoned barista jealous, and then push a single button to instantly brew piping hot coffee.

The Jura-Capresso 13332 Impressa J5 machine starts with whole beans of your choosing and grinds them just for the drink you are making. This ensures that you’ll get the freshest tasting coffee cup after cup.

What I like most about this machine though is the variety of drinks it can make. If you have a guest over who isn’t a big coffee drinker you can use the machine to make instant hot water for tea, or my favorite trick: run chocolate milk through the steamer for instant hot chocolate. Of course for the rest of us, the pressure brewing system in this machine will allow you to say goodbye to expensive coffee drinks, and become your own favorite barista.
