Ecoffee Cup Kerr & Napier 12oz / 340ml Black | Reusable Bamboo Coffee Cup

I originally bought an ecoffee cup from a local coffee shop. I thought it was a great way to cut out plastic waste and also save money. The idea and thought behind it is good and ethical, since it is made from bamboo and can be composted when finished with (another issue). However, the durability of the cup is terrible. The first cup I bought already had a crack down the entire side, not thinking anything of it I returned it to the coffee shop and received a new one. Then, after a few weeks, it was accidentally dropped, resulting in another huge crack down the side. I decided to get a replacement anyway since I loved having a reusable cup, which was this one from Amazon. It was fine and being used as normal, until one day it was in my bag which fell onto the floor. I found the cup broken with pieces everywhere. As much as I love the idea of a reusable cup, for people such as myself who often drop or knock over things, it is not a great product. Another issue, is the way the cup is disposed of. The company promote the fact that it is compostable, however, it cannot go into the food waste/compost bin, which in my opinion defeats the point.The last issue I have had with the cup is that it attracts dust or fluff very easily and quickly. Always air dry rather than use a tea towel or any kind of tissue.

This is a lovely little cup, with a lovely feel to it - perfect size if you love a flat white. I was especially impressed when I fell and dropped my cup only to find the cup and all contents in tact.Would definitely recommend.

Brilliant design and product, lovely to wash up and doesn’t affect taste at all.However... the lid is very flimsy and although well designed it twisted and simply popped off, it has absolutely no safety feature or anything to keep it on. On my first day of use at work it got slightly rubbed and disappeared into the void. So now I have a lidless cup 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’d like this so much more if the mouth piece stopper (can’t think of the correct term!) was attached to the lid. It isn’t so I drop it, misplace it, and it’s quite flimsy so does fall off/out quite regularly. Apart from that it’s a nice cup and didn’t have any smell even from first use which is a big plus .

Main cup body is ace. Feels solid. No adverse flavour and cleans up nicely.Lid is a different story. Absorbs any soap taste when washed. And ends up smelling and tasting like a damp cloth used to clean cheesy feet with a hint of fairy liquid. This may just be a factory taste that will fade with time. So don’t be too put off straight away. Think of the turtles you save each time you drink your coffee. Attenborough thanks you.

After reading the reviews, I was a little worried about having rubber flavoured coffee but from the first use there was no taste. It looks really good, the silicone band keeps your fingers from getting burned and the lid is easy to get on. The spout is easy to drink from and the non-plastic packaging was cute. An added bonus is knowing that when the coffee shop gives me a discount for bringing my own cup, it will pay for itself and then more. I'll be buying more of these for Xmas presents.

I bought this coffee cup because the KeepCups seemed a bit too expensive for what I'd be getting. This one is pretty good. My initial worry was the strong smell from the rubber lid, but that fades dramatically after 4 or 5 coffees. The lid also has a little rubber plug to prevent spillages and keep the drink warm for longer. I don't know how to rate the durability as I haven't been pelting it off the floor quite yet but it's sturdy feeling. The insulating grip to hold it does an ok job at keeping the heat away from your hand but not a perfect job. It's still slightly uncomfortable to hold for a long time if you drink your coffee black with no milk.All in all a solid purchase.

If you like drinking your hot coffee through an old rubber tyre then this is the cup for you. It’s a good sized cup and does keep your drink piping hot. The rubber top is a bit rubbish and you can taste the rubber with every mouthful. The cup itself is ok. Bit pricey for what it is tho.
