The fact that I own 3 of these mugs should say it all But Read the Review to Understand Why
As the title says the fact that I have owned 3 of these travel mugs shows my faith in them and I will tell you why I think they are better than that "other" brand name travel mug in the next paragraph but I think it important you understand my backstory with these mugs. The blue mug in my images is over 7 years old and was used almost every day for those 7 years with either hot or cold beverages. About 4 years ago I wanted a smaller version of this travel mug for specific occasions (mainly hot coffee) so you see that in my images too as basis for comparison between the older versions of these travel mugs and the newer versions. Finally, as you can see in my images the bottom cap of the larger blue mug came off (something they fixed/did away with in the latest model) and I could not get it to back on. Well this cup served me well, so I decided to replace it with the exact same brand of travel mug. When I went to Amazon I saw (in addition to the older versions) they had a new improved larger version which I decided to purchase. What I am telling about this newer travel mug reviewed here also applies to the older (smaller) versions which they still sell on Amazon. I still use my silver one (as seen in my images) as needed. Of Course, it goes without saying these travel mugs keep beverages COLD or HOT for exceeding long periods of time. In fact, you find cautions on the bottom of the mug and the inside of the top of the mug warning that hot beverages can cause burns. Another caution they give you is to leave the lid off the top for a couple of minutes to let hot beverages cool down a little (LoL). I find both hot and cold beverages last that way for longer periods (especially the hot ones) then I want them too. I would like to at least sip on my hot beverage within the 30 minutes LoL. I like (want) the fact that they have no handle. Handles tend to get in the way especially in car cup holders. These mugs are easy to grip and natural to drink from. The actual physical color of the mug means nothing to me. Of course, these travel mugs are high quality and I think all that I have laid out thus far proves that fact above and beyond. Finally, I want to speak to the positive drink lock these travel mugs contain that are absent in most travel mugs. (I would not buy one that did not possess this feature). This is an outstanding feature that if nothing else gives you piece of mind, but I believe it has saved me many times when I have accidently knocked over or dropped the mug. As you can see in my images in the new mug, they have moved this feature from the top of the lid to the side (next to the push to drink button). This is probably more efficient and effective, but I have not seemed to get the hang of it yet and I wish it stuck out a little longer to catch my thumb more easily.

Mercedes of travel mugs!
I have spent many hours researching travel mugs, so I could finally have a leak free hot latte every morning when I commute to work. This was the winner. With this leak free AUTO SEAL mechanism , a Mercedes of coffee mugs. It was expensive too, minimum £25 so I decided to wait an order one on AMAZON US half the price including the delivery . I even ordered extra one for my partner. While I was waiting I bought a budget HIWILL Double Walled Vacuum Insulated Travel Coffee Mug, for ten pounds. I chose the smaller size for my son and was using it while waiting for Contigo. Yes it was too small for a large latte but leak proof and hot for hours!!! When contigo 2.0 arrived it was impressive but heavy. The auto seal works well and it's easy to clean. It's bigger than Hiwill but that's what I wanted, Unfortunately coffee loose the temperature very quickly. Having been using the hiwill I could feel huge difference. No more hot coffee on my desk when I arrive to work. So disappointed....I am considering sending them back , but it will be to US ... UPDATE: After few hit and misses with latte temperature and rinsing the cup with boiling water to make it hot I have no issues with the right temperature for at least 3 hours ! A win!

The best for traveling in the car.
Holds exactly 24oz. Holds temperature better than my Thermos Sipp 16 oz travel mug. Wobbles in a lot of cup holders. Leakproof, but not drip proof. A little bit of liquid collects on the door of the mouthpiece and you have to squeeze the release button and blow it back or it will drip when tilted. Beware: carbonated drinks will release a loud and spray full burst of air and mist in your face if you don’t point it away from you when completely full. Cola all over my face and eyeglasses. Everything cleans well in the top rack of the dishwasher. Paint scuffs occur after a dozen uses. Goes well in a golf bag. Locking feature works with one hand to release. East to drink and still look ahead while driving.

Love the Contigo Mugs
I had a Contigo West Loop 2.0 mug, which I really liked. The 3.0 mug is so much easier to clean than the 2.0 was! There’s no tight spaces on the lid that you can’t reach properly to get it clean. This mug also keeps my coffee hot for hours. I wash these cups by hand (even though you can put them in a dishwasher). To me, they last a lot longer that way (especially the rubber stopper inside the lid). I’ve never been disappointed in these mugs. They’ve never leaked and the lock works well. When I look for a new mug, I always look for Contigo. They make me and my coffee very happy!
