the widemouth was designed strictly for the western market in order to fit full size ice cubes, and I think they didnt spend much time on the design.

Bought two of these last time they came on sale. The little plastic clip that holds the lid shut broke on one within a month. Contacted customer service and they initially refused to replace under warranty and offered to sell me a replacement lid. Not until I advise them that I would be contacting the BBB did they finally provide a replacement.

That said it doesn't keep things as well insulated as my old vacuum glass Thermos. Hot coffee will stay hot into the late afternoon but it's not piping hot.
Someone's mentioned about the silicone gasket smelling: I think silicone retains smell if you run it through the dishwasher. I try to hand wash it as much as possible. It's why i don't use silicone baking sheets, as convenient and awesomely nonstick as they are.

Especially the inner silicone lid and gasket.
I saw remedies to pop the silicone pieces in the oven for 30 minutes to get rid of the smell and it did but it just comes back after a few days...
I've noticed that the silicone inherently retains strong smells like coffee and tea.
If you use it regularly, you'll just have to live with soaking it in a baking soda water bath to get rid of odors. I do it overnight so I don't have to think about it.
Use a bottle brush to clean the interior and plastic mouthpiece. I like the bottle brush set sold by Oxo.

The silicone stopper and ring gasket are properly installed and closed right?
I've had my 20oz one for 5-6 years and it still insulates incredibly well, despite all the dings and scratches from me dropping it.
My only criticism are that hot drinks are still dangerously hot even after 4-5 hours.
