Ozark trail ones from Walmart.

I looked at these. They look okay. Just not sure they are bomb proof enough. Thanks. I might buy one to see how they work. Lot less expensive.


I have one and they work just fine. Keeps my water cold or my tea hot
They look like they would work fine. I was more concerned about breaking it. I have broken several travel mugs just this year.

Contigo coffee mugs are the best I have used. You can pick up a 2 pack at Costco occasionally for a good price

These things are great!  Most of the insulated mugs mentioned are pretty tough and good at heat retention, bit imo the snapseal and autoseal are the two best convenient drinking methods that seal very well and are tough.  I have a couple other mugs that are pretty good but the Contigo are consistently better from my experience.

Depends on your criteria, the Contigo ones and Stanley ones are great because they offer "spill proof " protection With screw on lids and closeable sip. I prefer my rambler over all others for everyday use, travel etc. I prefer no handles as they fit in most cupholders better. It's not spill proof but certainly resistant, and very easy it is to clean. Many of them have small tops and hands don't fit for a quick wash and rinse, the rambler styles don't have that problem.

I seem to have a problem spilling things lately. Insulation is important, but I'm tired of cleaning up my messes. Haha

Got 2 and they work great. Cold is cold and hot is hot, cant go wrong especially the size and still fitting in regular cup holders.
