[Closed] Recommend me a good thermal mug.

There is no such thing as good thermal mugs because they all contain plastic, so as far as plastic and heat is concerned I stay away from them.

I want the whole thing stainless steel ...

get a good thermal mug, they're great.

not sure if they still do them, but I have a Kathmandu one, which is stainless lined on the inside and around the lip - so is easy to clean and doesn't pick up the taste of dishwasher tablets.

best mug purchased

Thermos. Plastic on the outside, stainless on the inside. £7 in [url= http://www.sainsburys.co.uk/sol/shop/home_and_garden/finalclearance/121392451_thermos-purple-mercury-travel-mug.html?hnav=4294904047 ]sainsburys[/url]

I've just binned a Thermos.

Bruneep, I like the look of that Bodum one, will hunt one down and have a look.

You could bin three more thermos ones for the price of the bodum 🙂

Sagaform. Ceramic mug with silicone lid that resembles a take away cup. You can microwave it and it has a plug in the bottom so it doesn't fill with water from the dishwasher.

The rubber smell from the lid fades after a week or so.

The bodum looks great but is eye eyewateringly expensive! There is a coffee press version though.

The best thermal mug I ever owned was made by La Cafetière. It was awesome. I left it at a client's. they obviously tried it and also found it awesome as they swore blind I hadn't left it there, the bastids. 😐

They don't make that model anymore. 🙁

ECHO... Echo.. echo.

Contigo mugs are great. One handed operation. Auto sealing. No spills and keep tea warm for a long time.

I have a blue contigo that I have water in, I tried a brew in it and I found that the trigger/lid system got manky from brew residue and took some cleaning. I do agree thay are cracking mugs, I went for it on a similar quest to this but looking for a good non leak waterbottle.

Really? given what people pay for bikes and parts is it that expensive? I bought 3 or 4 mugs before I bought my Bodum mug wish I'd bought it first.

The price I saw it at (in-store admittedly) was £27. Way above my comfort threshold for something that is going to bounced around at work. I got to the checkout and had a firm word with myself moments before handing over more than £50 for two of them 😯

Wife bought me one of these a couple of years ago:

(there's a smaller one too)

Lid is easily flipped up with one hand, easy to clean and has been very robust so far. Keeps coffee warm for at least 90 mins, I have a long commute and it's normally too hot to drink until a fair way into the journey. Fits in every car cupholder I've used too.

I'd gone through a few before it but it's spot on for me.

bodum are great, i have one, but if i was buying a new one then this is the king...

I've had so many iterations its untrue!

But the solution is: Primus Commuter 0.4 L. Has a push button valve so you know it won't spill. I use it all day every day, take it whilst flying and it often sits in my bag with ipad/laptop whilst full with no issues..

I do always invert it and check it's not going to leak (have done it wrong previously) before putting in my bag!

I like the look of this primus too, the stainless would make sense for me.

Toss up between the Bodum and the Primus at the mo then.

I knew it was worth asking, I'm getting somewhere now 😀
