The Stainless Mug from Zojirushi’s SM-JHE series features a resilient and ultra-clean 18/8 stainless steel interior with SlickSteel® finish. The SM-JHE comes in a narrower build when compared with other models of the same capacity as this allows an easier grip and practical carrying of the mug.
The vacuum insulation technology used in these series work to keep the temperature of the beverage at a constant for hours by completely removing the air from in between the two layers of stainless steel that make up the walls of the mug. By doing so, a vacuum is created disabling any heat from travelling through air thus creating an advanced way of preserving heat. To strengthen this retention of temperatures, the insulated products feature a layer of copper or aluminum which help reflect the heat. The insulation of the body of product is aided by an airtight, insulated lid. The heat retention achieved through this technique helps keep the hot beverages still hot (rather than lukewarm) and cold beverages cool (rather than room temperature) for hours after filling when compared with products using either foam or double wall insulation.
The SlickSteel® finish interior is a surface that is polished using an electronically charged method rather than coating process used in some of the other vacuum insulated models. This creates a surface that is not only corrosion resistant but also repels any foreign substances that could stain, resulting in a clean, stainless steel housing for your beverages Like a non-stick coating, it is a durable and easy-to-clean surface.
The twist open lid snugly fits the mug creating a barrier for any accidental leak while the mouth piece that’s fitted at the mouth of the mug can be removed for drinking comfort. All the surfaces that come into contact with the beverage, including the lid are manufactured using BPA-free materials to assure safe use.
Tip: It is recommended to pre-heat or pre-chill the mug with hot water or ice to help them preserve the beverage’s temperatures longer.
