HuskeeCup + Lid Charcoal (16oz)

Bought two of these. A smaller one for tea and this large one for my morning coffee. They are so unique and pleasant to drink from.

Cup washes well. Fits in car cup holder well. I am fine with it, but cap is one you have to pull off.

we LOVE our HUSKEE cups! They hold up great in the dishwasher, keep our drinks hot, are aesthetically pleasing & great for the environment!

Don't know why I love these but they are super easy to clean & my go to coffee tumbler! Got both colors!

Not worth the price

Aesthetically pleasing but does not keep coffee warm for any time at all. So don’t expect that.

Looks nice and asthetic but does not keep drinks hot at all. Disappointed for the price I expected much more. Definitely not worth it

Huskee would like you to think that their coffee cups are made from green, sustainable materials. The husks are waste material, a by-product of the coffee bean extraction process which takes place in factories in China. The husk content gives the cup its name and is prominently advertised, to the point where consumers are led to believe the cups are made entirely of husks and is therefore compostable at the end of its life.In fact, the cups’ primary ingredient is polypropylene, a common, recyclable plastic that is used to make things like your margarine tubs and tomato sauce bottle caps. According to Huskee’s FAQ page, polypropylene accounts for at least half of the cup material, and (according to other sources) as much as two thirds.Huskee, therefore, has effectively taken two materials, biodegradable husks and recyclable plastic, and combined them into a new material that is neither compostable nor recyclable.Huskee is less than transparent about this fact. In several places on their website they in fact claim outright that their product can be recycled, before conceding it is not. They then claim to be taking care of the recycling themselves (presumably by simply re-distributing old cups for reuse), but elsewhere admit this process is still ‘in development’ and will ‘make HuskeeSwap the ultimate closed-loop ecosystem’ – a phrase that only makes sense if their cups never die. Unfortunately, their expected lifespan is about three years.So if the composite material is less environmentally friendly than the starting products, what could the incentive have been for Huskee to make it in the first place? It seems the only people who could benefit from it are the coffee bean producers, who would otherwise have to find alternative disposal methods for mounds of husks.This is shame. The Huskee Cup is brilliantly designed. Instead of using a foam or rubber sleeve around the cup, ribbed fins keep hot coffee from burning your hands. The simple minimalist shape is the perfect alternative to the disposable paper cups many of us use when we pick up coffee from the local convenient store. Sipping is easy. There's no flap nor tab to fiddle with and the lid stays firmly in place.But with 1/2 to 3/4 of the cup material made from plastic, is this cup safe to use, especially with scalding hot coffee inside? Do cancer causing chemicals leach into your coffee? These are scary concerns. I encourage Huskee to submit a cup to a third party independent research lab for testing. No internal data will convince anyone that their cups are safe for drinking. Huskee deserves to succeed. We just need provable data that their cups are safe for use.
