Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Disappearing Civil Liberties Mug
Customer Review: didnt even work once
Summary: 1 Stars
i was very disappointed when i used this mug for the first time. it didnt do anything and there was already clear overcoat coming off the letters. i hand washed it after that first use, and half of my rights washed away right down the drain. i was really looking forward to using this when a far left goofball was coming to visit, and it never did anything it said it would. if id of known this, i wouldve bought a plain white mug for a couple bucks, rather then waste $15 on this. if anyone knows of one of these types of mugs that work, please let me know where u got it. id like to purchase one.Customer Review: Hilarious but NOT DISHWASHER OR MICROWAVE SAFE

What a great idea! I love these disappearing mugs! I have one that shows what the world will look like once the polar ice caps melt. I bought this one for my lawyer boyfriend, but like most lawyers he was stubborn and didn't believe the instructions on the box that say explicitly not to put this mug in the dishwasher. He also put it in the microwave. I'm not sure which process actually ruined the mug, but the combination was more than fatal. All of the writing came off and now it's just a boring white mug. The bottom line? Be gentle with these mugs!Customer Review: We've bought two, they're both ruined.

First of all, I KNOW it's not supposed to go in the dishwasher, we don't even USE a dishwasher. My boyfriend had this and after a few months all the letters fell off. So I bought him a replacement, and after just washing it in plain hot water with soap, the words came off. It's ruined. So now we have two plain white mugs with black handles. This replacement one I bought, the words wouldn't even disappear, they just lightly lightly faded with hot coffee in it.Customer Review: they ain't kidding disappearing--right down the sink
Summary: 1 Stars
I received this item as a gift, and at first thought it was great. However, the very first time I (hand) washed it, using a mild detergent and no scrubbing involved, just a cloth and soapy water, 3/4 of the "rights" went right down the sink. It seems increasingly difficult to purchase items of any quality these days, alas. If you're going to place it on a shelf and chuckle over it, go for it, but if you might actually USE it, save your money.Customer Review: Expected better, but ok for the price

I got this mug as a gift, and although it is a great concept, I wish the letters wouldn't rub off so easily. I unfortunately used the harsher surface of a sponge to hand wash the mug, and the letters started to rub off. Luckily, I remembered other people talking about this happening to them and I quickly switched to the softer part of the sponge to finish washing it. Maybe there is a way to make these things so that the lettering stays?
