What's your favorite stainless coffee tumbler?
I seem to have lost all my coffee tumblers in the move. My wife is notorious for throwing away old household items so I can see her pitching all of them before we moved.

What's your favorite model? I want one that can be easily cleaned and I don't like ones with a spring valve that can't be disassembled for cleaning.

I think it depends on whether it needs to be mobile or not. That can get pretty specific. I use one that I have when it needs to go in my car simply because it works with my old cars' cupholders. I don't particularly like it.

At home at my desk, I use a cheap, Ozark Trail (read WalMart) brand. It seems to work as well as much more expensive stuff.

Yeti 16 Oz is my favorite the cover has a magnetic closure that all you need to do to clean it is pull off the closing slide.

I have a couple of stainless steel insulated Klean Kanteen tumblers that I use when road tripping. The lid is plastic with rubber seals and comes apart easily for cleaning.

Peruse local thrift stores for them- you can find lots of variety of solid mugs. I hate to admit it but Starbucks has made some decent spill proof/resistant tumblers. My go-to is a pretty cool looking copper accent 12 oz tumbler from 2010 that will lie on its side completely full of hot coffee and not ooze a drop. I simply removed the company logo so I don’t openly advertise for them. If leakproof isn’t an issue, I second the Yeti 20 oz tumblers with the magnetic slider that is super easy to clean, but it will ooze if tipped over.

I received cast off Schwag from my brother-in-law, who runs a shop. I now have four yeti thermoses branded with his company logo. Handy as hell.

Bass Pro Shops/Cabelas have some nice stainless tumblers.

Thanks! I've got some Cabela's gift cards and I think I'll get the Yeti.

gearhounds- I had the exact tumbler for years but tossed it because it was from starbucks. It was a great tumbler. I had starbucks coffee mugs from all over the world and tossed them due to their politics.

I like all my travel coffee mugs to be the same. I hate having different styles with lids that are not the same. Walmart has Ozark Trail Yeti knock offs. There's tons of comparisons on the innerwebs, they are exactly the same, for a fraction of the price. I think I have 8 in my rotation.

Hydro flask, not made in the states but I don’t believe any are. Has a flip top lid that seals when closed. I like my coffee hot and this is the best that I’ve found.

Yeti won't disappoint. Work gave us one every year for a while. Spoiled me. I put the most miles on this sucker now. Father's Day gift, hit the nail on the head.

I'm a big fan of the Contigo brand AutoSeal mugs.
Been using them since I was in a patrol car.
The lid technology makes cleaning simple and they'll keep a drink cold or hot for hours.

My office tumbler is a Coleman shorty, got from a vendor. Has the snap in slider, but I don't use the lid in the office.
Can't seem to find it online, but similar in style to the Yeti Lowball.

My car mug I got from HEB [local TX grocery chain], don't recall the brand, but it keeps hot much longer than my Yeti mugs do. But it does not have a spill-safe lid.

I have used a Nissan bran Thermos mug since 1996 or so. It has served me well, and it is Japanese made.
Zojuruchi nowadays makes some nice travel mugs, and I am going to get one of their travel thermoses


If you think you can, YOU WILL!!!!!

I for one hate hot coffee, I like warm coffee.
Get a burnout tumbler.
they take the initial crazy hot out of coffee and keep the heat in for hours.

I've been using the Yeti 20 oz. The sip valve has a removable magnetic slider piece for cleaning, but I just leave the slider off.

I have a couple other Yeti knockoffs I got free from the credit union that are not as nice, but seem to work just as well.

Another vote for the Contigo, hard to beat for the price.

I have several Yetis. I also have several unbranded knockoffs that seem to work just as well.

The Wal Mart Ozark are the best buy.
You can get a Yeti if your they type of dude that needs to pay double for a name.

My brother bought me a 24oz Yeti Rumbler a few years ago. I absolutely love it! With the way my truck console is designed, it fits in my cup holders. What a fantastic product!
