You didnt take apart the rest of the lid. The the inside of the top gets nasty too. Video was very informative but all the viewers are still drinking thru a moldy lid.

7 minute video just to see a blur when the important part is shown

I have a very annoying issue. The coffee gets into between the lid and the metal lip .. there's a very tiny gap, and apparently, you can't dessemble that. Is anyone having the same issue?

Thank you for sharing this! I could have saved 20 minutes of time if I had seen this before.

Thank you for walking me through the steps for putting the thermos back together!

That was very helpful for me ! Thank you from Fab, Paris.

Thank you!!! I was able to do it. It's really helpful. ❤

Great video. I needed to have watched this 30 minutes sooner!😅 Thanks for posting!

Every time I thought I had it correct, my coffee would just drip out. I was about to just order a new one because I love how well it keeps hot drinks hot/cold drinks cold. Thanks so much for breaking it down!

You saved my troubles, thank you❤..

Thank you! I've had my little guy for approximately 7 or 8 years. Lol TODAY I took it apart and washed it throughly...would not have been able to reassemble without your instructions

Extremely helpful and thanks for posting.

Thank you! I’ve been trying all night and morning to reassemble this thing 😂

I would like to thank you for creating such an excellent video. It's very informative, and the RU-vid community appreciates it. Additionally, I wanted to share a great method for removing residue from the inner walls of a thermos, as well as from the plastic parts and gaskets. Simply pour hot water into the thermos and add a quarter of a dishwashing tablet. For the lid and gaskets, place them in a bowl with hot water and add another quarter of a dishwashing tablet. Let everything soak for an hour, and you'll find it all clean and residue-free.

GROSS! I have had one for years. Gasket went bad, and I finally realized that my lid was full of something-fungus-looking! Been drinking out of it every day. From this video, I learned how to properly clean it now!!! Thanks!

thank you very much dear lady, I took mine apart and couldn't put it back together 😅

Glad I'm not the only one having issues re assembling these rubber bands, I nearly threw away the whole thing out of frustration ! Thanks for posting,!

Thank you so much for this explanation! I was getting very frustrated with my new mug, now the lid finally closes.

Thank you!

Thank you!!!!!!

Just bought one with handle, really helpful, thanks.

Thank you so much .my mug is back on her feet again, after watching your video. We'll explained

You magnificent bastard!!! I love you. I have been struggling with cleaning this damn lid for a MONTH and couldn’t use it because it kept leaking (because I re-assembled it improperly). You fixed my mug and now I can drink my hot tea in the morning train again. I’m so thankful you are basically my god right now. I would pray to you ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thank You very much, it was very useful,🫶

You are the best… thank you so much

Thanks for the video. After seven years it's still helping people.

This video really helped me. I was fighting myself in the closed position, and when you said it was better in the open position my problem was solved. Thank you very much

Thanks so much. My friend Marco almost ruined his cup until he saw this video

Very helpful, many thanks!

I wish I had seen this sooner, I was embarrassed at how long it took me to figure out the gasket position.

Very helpful ! Thanks 🙂👌

What happens if your lid is stuck on

Nice video. Thank you so much ❤❤.

Very informative, clear and helpful. Thank you!

Thank you for explaining that damn lid! I just bought the cup today and I’m sure it’s good as far as keeping drinks cold/hot as most double walled steel cups are, but HOLY SMOKES! t he lid assembly and disassembly is absolutely ridiculous!! This has to be open, this has to be closed , this has to be aligned this way or that way. I planned on using it as a coffee cup with creamer in it, I’ll only use it occasionally as this is a PIA.

This thing was going to be the death of me!!!

OMG Thank you for this video. I love mine but I have now learned I have the rubber piece upside down.

Thank you for this, I have just purchased same one as you, needed a decent insulated mug. Your instructions for taking things apart was very helpful. ❤

Hi Is there any issue after many usage? Also how many hours it can keep the coffee hot?

Very informative video that also helped me realize the location of the "bump out" line! Thank you for detailed instructions. Keep up the great work.

One question one statement. The reason I searched for this video is...What is that little hook for on the lid? My statement is you missed out that little rubber ring gasket around the hook, that comes out and there's usually gunk in there, plus that centre section with the hook, I want to take apart as it smells inside there if you get your nose close to it (bad design in my option) Thanks

That lid looks like a P.I.T.A. to clean

Thank you! I love my king thermos, learned so much

Is it normal that after taking it apart and reassembling it for the very first time, the second, small gasket became "loose" and the disk can now spin freely? (Making it not have an air tight seal if the mug moves around since the water presses on one side of the disk and makes the other side become "open"

Absolutely brilliant thought I'd broke my sons mug Would of been world war 3

I'm returning mine because that first nut that you are supposed to take off with the lid open by twisting counter clockwise will not come off.

Thank yooooooou!!!

Thank you for the excellent video. Very clear and thorough. Just what I needed ;-)

THANK YOU and Merry Christmas to me from you! I love this mug, so much that I have 3. Problem is Ive been intermittently trying to put them all back together w/o leakage for almost a year and never able to screw the lid back on right. You’re well instructed tips helped me realize that the nuance of laying that large gasket over the lip of the black plastic made all the difference. I’m so grateful.

The sheer amount of views this particular video got in six years alone is enough to tell me this is a real issue, or people got rid of their instruction manuals, or the thing didn't come with one.
