  1. No incident, no one hurt

    Made Feb 1, 2025, sent to the company Feb 4, 2025, published by CPSC Feb 19, 2025

    The product, in the report: The product is specifically the lid of the Nomad series travel mug. Or just ‘travel mug, large’ with push to open button lid.

    I believe a travel coffee mug sold by Nespresso called the Nomad is an unsafe product. The lid is made in a way that it has many small crevices and pathways for coffee to travel. Thus lid is not able to be taken down to its individual components for proper cleaning. There is no literature stating hiw to take the lid apart and Nespresso says that it is not possible. This is a clenliness issue allowing for mold and bacteria to contaminate things the consumer drinks.

    The product, in the report: Nespresso Nomad travel mugs, all sizes with the pop top lid (which all have). My products are: 2 in 18 oz., and 1 in 13.5 oz sizes.

    I am writing regarding extensive mold lurking in the lids of Nespresso’s Nomad Travel Mugs.

    My husband and I have three Nomad mugs, two 18 oz., and one 13.5 oz. All three mugs have pop down tops with a center that depresses allowing for 360 degree drinking. We’ve had health annoyances and coffee that would curdle for one of us, but not the other on some days. When the coffee curdled again we decided to look into the lids. Prior to this, we have followed the directions that require only that the product is soaked if not washed immediately, and if placed in the dishwasher that the lid is washed in the “open” position so water can flow through the cup. When we discovered mold in all three cups, I first pressure washed two of the three cups (cups A and B in the images) with the sink faucet before soaking in water and vinegar, then disassembling disassembling the lid as much as can be done (with the inner “pop” lid and outer spring removed, but the innermost spring locked inside). The third lid (lid C) was disassembled and soaked without any pressure washing, so the image shows even more of the mold and coffee left hiding in what appeared to be a “clean” mug.

    Once soaked in vinegar and water overnight, I tried pressure washing each of the inner springs in the lids again and used bottle top brushes of different sizes and stiffness to try to clean the inner springs of the visible remnants within them. The photo of the inner springs is attempting to show you that there are still coffee and mold remnants stuck below that spring. Even the parts of the inner spring that look clean can be lifted and then scraped below with a toothpick to remove more residue.

    Which leads me to this: these lids pose a serious health risk to consumers; they must be recalled. The instructions do not tell consumers how to even clean as far as I was able to; they were disassembled by force and without direction. But more importantly, they ultimately cannot be FULLY disassembled. That inner ring that cannot be removed, that is tucked into the center ring, that every ounce of beverage passes through, harbors mold. These lids look this way after following the rinsing and dishwashing instructions as far as any reasonable consumer could be expected to do.

    I contacted Nespresso which then had a supervisor contact me. I was provided the first option of an identical replacement mug, an alternative mug, and then a refund. I was directed to email photos to an email address that, when attempted, blocks all incoming messages despite many attempts ([REDACTED]).

    I appreciated the money back, but I do not feel made whole. Unsuspecting consumers need to know of the incredible health hazard that lurks in their Nespresso Nomad travel mugs.
