The Best Commuter Cup You Can Buy
931292
I commute and travel a LOT, and I have tried every design of commuter cup out there. Some are terrible, some are dangerous, some are decent, but I love Contigo cups. I buy them pretty often, because they get stolen or lost, and I give them as gifts. I'm done looking for the perfect cup; this is it. These are sturdy, good looking, keep hot liquids hot and never leak. I'm not much of a fanboy for brands, but I'm sold on Contigo. They have never let me down.

Hands down the best travel mug that I have EVER used.

An example of this thing's capabilities;
7:25am - Pour blazing hot coffee into mug.
8:00am - Arrive at work.
8:15am - Realize I forgot mug out in car in freezing 15-20* air temperature day.
5:00pm - Leave work, get in car, enjoy warm/hot coffee on drive home.

There is no exaggeration of their numbers here. This thing is insulated AMAZINGLY.

TRULY SPILL-PROOF (Keep in mind that if you overfill the mug and close the seal and tip it, the trapped coffee in the channels that lead to the drink-slots is going to spill out. There's a fill line pressed into the interior metal, so you should be good.)

My fiancee has the glossy black-purple one and after over a year the finish is starting to peel off in places. Tossing it in the sink, running it through the dishwasher, etc can take its toll. The matte black finish on mine appears to be a little tougher, time will tell. I told her to peel the rest of the finish off on hers and it would have an awesome blasted stainless finish.

The silicone gaskets stain a bit over time, the top/sealing mechanism is able to be completely disassembled for thorough cleaning.

Will never buy another mug again. If I lose or destroy mine, or my fiancee her's. Exact new ones will replace them.

These things are incredible. Hot coffee ALLLLLLL day, or an icy beverage all day and all night! And you never have to worry about spilling. The perfect commuter travel mug.

This is THE BEST travel cup. It holds a nice amount and lid really seals up tightly against accidental spills.  I love that lid screws on securely and the simple latch closure with rubber stopper is all that is needed to keep it spill free.  I really dislike the lids with complicated closures; too many parts = too many places where water can collect and cause odors which then impart on to my coffee! I love the orchid color but as beautiful as it is, I think it will scratch and show wear if you plan to use it out of the home.  I also have the unpainted one, which still looks new after a year of commuting, (except for a minor dent or two from dropping it :)

THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST TRAVEL CUP I HAVE EVER OWNED! I've had Thermos brand ones and numerous others over the years, and this thing is by far the BEST. Keeps coffee hot for over 6 hours, in 4 it is still hot enough to burn. I've probably cut my coffee waste in half, because I'm no longer having to dump half a cup of cold out to make room for more hot.... The one small drawback is the button that you have to press in fully to get a good sip. I can already see my index fingers getting muscular...lol ;) I will be ordering another for my husband and one for each of my kids.

This is the best cup I've ever bought. Keeps my morning coffee hot on my way to work and keeps my mixed drinks cold. Ice will still be in the cup after 2 drinks and no condensation on the outside to put rings on your tables.

I love this mug like many others.  I use it daily to bring coffee from home to work. It rides around in my commuter bag on the NYC subway and has never leaked.  I did hand wash it for a while but eventually succumbed to laziness and ran it through the dishwasher.  Like many others, after going through the dishwasher a few times I had some chipping and scratching on the paint as a result.  It didn't bother me at first but eventually it bothered me enough that I did something about it.

I used a combination of a wire wheel brush with a 12v cordless drill, old dental pick, 1500 grit automotive sandpaper and a scotch brite pad (green) to remove all of the remaining paint and take it down to a bare brushed stainless steel.  I masked off the thermos logo with painters tape as well.  Now it looks industrial and I don't have to worry about it scratching.  If it does a simple buff with the scotch brite and it's good to go.  I've added a picture of what it looks like with bare stainless.

I took off one star because while it's a tough mug and hasn't leaked on me the gaskets are extremely difficult to clean and deodorize.  I've tried boiling water, vinegar, and denture cleaner.  They all work OK but Thermos should really offer gasket sets or replacement tops.  The bottom is basically indestructible for the average user.

This is a durable, beautiful cup for those Blachawk fans on the go.

These cups are great. They hold temperature for a long time. They don't leak. I like them so much I've given them as gifts to commuting coffee drinkers in my life.

This is the best insulated cup I have owned!  At some point between all the members of my family, I have held and used about 5 different brands of vacuum insulated cups.  As far as their ability to keep drinks cold/hot, they're all virtually the same.  However, my one complaint about them is that they're so stinkin' bulky that they're not comfortable to hold and I don't like the handles.  That's why I was so happy when I found this brand.  The slim design maintains a large capacity but is much more comfortable!  I ended up buying pretty much everyone on my Christmas list one this year!

Over the years, I've had many travel cups, all of which have been sub-par in terms of their insulating qualities. Believe me, put a piping hot cup of coffee in this, and it will still be piping hot four to five hours later. Mine goes everywhere with me; the car, work, at home all weekend... I've dropped it on concrete floors, banged it around, beat it up in various ways, and while it's shows its scuffs and scrapes, functionally it's none the worse for the wear. I've enjoyed this cup so much that I bought one for my boss for Christmas, and have encouraged several folks who've commented on it on seeing me with it, all of whom have bought their own, and all of whom are as delighted with theirs as I am with mine.

Buy one; buy three! You'll not be disappointed.

I've tried many similar coffee cups. Some good, some bad.  I absolutely LOVE these coffee cups. I use them daily whether I'm home or on the go. Perfect size for me (I use half n half in my coffee.) The tops go on very easily and stay put. I have no worries about spills. The double wall construction keeps coffee hot. I wash both cup and top in the dishwasher. My only word of warning  - due to the double wall construction they tend to break a bit easier than a regular mug or cup. But any kind of cup or mug breaks eventually.

This is my third Nissan mug in this style. The first one became so "loved" and dented from use that I retired it to the bench for emergency use. When I lost the second one, I considered it an emergency.  I carry this to work every day. I always refill it rather than use a paper cup.  It has become my "signature".  It is the perfect shape, it does not drip.  The coffee stays hot or at a good drinking temperature longer in this mug than any other I have tried. It is my very favorite.

I have had the Contigo Autoseal Transit Stainless Steel Travel Mug for a few months now, and use it constantly. I have recommended it to all my friends and anybody who compliments me on it. It is the ideal mug for more reasons than one, and fully deserves the five-star rating I gave it.

First, the travel mug does its job and keeps hot stuff hot for hours. I brew coffee for class in the morning at 7:30 and it is still hot three hours later at 10:30. Thats even after Ive walked fifteen minutes in below freezing temperatures to get to my class. The mug is also very durable. The stainless-steel technology protects it from wear and tear. It has survived several falls from my desk and out of my hand. Adding to the mugs durability, it is dishwasher safe on the top rack. If you are tough on coffee travel mugs, this mug is worth considering.

One thing you may notice is that there is no handle on this mug, however the no-slip grip design on the top half of the mug adds comfort, and originality. Since the mug does not come with a handle attached to it, it fits perfectly into any regular sized car cup holder for easy transport. It comes in four unique designs ranging between black, stainless steel, and white to fit your own personal style.

The most unique feature of the mug is the no-spill cap. Nothing ruins your day faster than spilling your coffee down your shirt as you hit a bump ten minutes in to your drive to work. The Autoseal technology prevents leaks and spills, keeping you looking and feeling your best for the day. In addition to the Autoseal button, the CleanGuard lid rotates to lock the Autoseal button, so you are free to throw it in your bag, knowing that it will not spill over all your things. Great for busy moms and on-the-go teenagers.

If I were to lose my Contigo travel mug, I would not hesitate to buy another one just like it. If you have a travel mug you love, but it has seen better days, I highly recommend giving this one a shot. It would also make a great gift for a co-worker, spouse, or parent if you need gift ideas.

I have bought about every coffee cup known to human kind.  Coffee is what keeps me ticking, best energy drink ...ever...  I also am very clumsy.  I must have a mug that seals automatically.

A few years ago Contigo really hit a home run with their Autoseal mugs, they were very easy to drink out of one handed, the insulation performed well, and were nearly perfect mugs.

Someone finally answered the competition, and Camelbak released this Forge Vacuum Mug, and it is another home run.

The mug has an excellently designed lid, it isn't too heavy, and doesn't push coffee up out of the mug, it is easy to clean, and easy to use.  My only reservation is that the squeeze trigger might be hard to pull for some people.

To clean the lid, take it off and depress the trigger all the way and the valve pops up and out so you can easily make sure it is totally clean (the Contigo mugs are a bit harder to clean, but still not bad since they are open inside).

Insulation performance is excellent, almost too good, takes a while for the drink to get cool enough to consume.  There is a lock on the lid you can use to lock it open, and it will automatically disengage when you squeeze the trigger.

The vacuum Vessel (their wording for the mug) is great.  I love the flat black color on my smoke mug.

Bottom line is this is a truly wonder mug design for the worlds best beverage.

This tough plastic drink mug is plenty durable. It can stand up to even the toughest abuse, or commute. I really love not only the lightness (even when filled) but the spill-proof as well! No one likes having hot coffee tumble out onto their work clothes, or legs for that matter.
You can also show your patriotic side with the emblazoned flag on the cup. If you are looking for a sturdy, light alternative to stainless commuter mugs try this out. Heck, it's backed by a lifetime warranty, and it's Tupperware! How can you go wrong?

The best cup! I put ice water in it before bed because I get thirsty through the night. It still had ice in it by morning! It also kept my hot chocolate hot for 2 hours and warm another  almost 3! Buy this!!! The very best thing is the no spill!!! It is great for traveling.
