good for what I need

I basically wanted a nice mug that kept my tea hot/warm at work. Keeps it hot for a couple of hours, and even by lunch it's still quite warm.
Couple of caveats: the lid has a plastic rim to stop the liquid - it's not completely sealed so condensation and liquid gets inside the loop, which is a big no-no for a germophobe such as myself. The cup (and lid) is exceptionally difficult to clean, so even though I've only had it a couple of weeks, it's already showing wear.
I haven't nor will I try carrying it in a bag for later consumption, I have a feeling it'll leak. For that purpose I have a bomb-proof one, so this one is strictly for sipping in front of a computer.
I get lots of compliments on the blue colour I got, it IS beautiful in that regard.
If you're looking to look cool at work drinking out of a beautiful mug, this one's for you.
