I've owned more travel coffee mugs than I care to admit - most of them have ended up in the bin, which is ironic, since that is exactly why I bought a travel mug in the first place. My search for a great travel companion coffee mug has ended, and I am happy, very happy. It just works!
The Contigo West Loop v2 coffee travel mug is perfect. It does all of the following;
- Does not leak. Ever.
- Keeps my coffee hot for hours
- is very easy to clean
- is strong and robust
- looks good.
You'll pay about $30 in Australia for one of these, but that is great value when you consider the cost of all those travel mugs that don't perform. Pro-tip: get the stainless steel finish and not a coloured model if you'd prefer low maintenance - they are 100% dishwasher safe, where as the painted / coloured finish requires hand washing only.
