Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Zojirushi Gourmet Duet Dual-Mug Personal Coffeemaker, Creamy WhiteCustomer Review: design defect defeats travel mug's purpose Summary: 1 Stars
You really can't drink coffee from the mugs which come with this coffeemaker, unless the lids are off the mug... a definite design defect which defeats the purpose of a travel mug. It is a very simple oversight: there is no "vent" hole in the mug's lid, so that coffee barely dribbles out of the sipping hole, even when the mug is full, and even if you tilt the mug as high as if you were drinking the last drops from the bottom of the mug. It is a very frustrating experience. Please also consider that the two cups may not fill up evenly as the coffee brews; one may slightly overflow while the other mug is not full. Then there is the instruction book. The English is fine, but does it really make sense to instruct the user to heat up the mugs first with hot water, and then to instruct the user to measure cold water into the same mug to fill the reservoir? Of course, the user can figure his way around that, but the only way to use these mugs would be to drill an extra pinhole in each mug's lid for venting, or just use the mug around the house, without the lid. The mug is comfortable to hold, but the thermal value is not too good, even when preheated with boiling water. I regret having made this purchase.
Description of Zojirushi Gourmet Duet Dual-Mug Personal Coffeemaker, Creamy WhiteThis stylish coffeemaker is the perfect way to start the morning right for any couple on the go. Fill the water reservoir with one or two mugfuls of water, insert a No. 2 paper filter, scoop in some coffee, select the cup setting, take your morning shower, and grab your mug of piping hot coffee as you fly out the door. The unit comes with two stainless-steel, 14-ounce travel mugs into which the coffee is brewed. One or both cups may be used in the machine at once. For those couples with barely a second to spare, the automatic shutoff feature will surely be an asset. --Maile Bohlmann
