Customer Review: “I love this Indigo travel mug. It is well made, sturdy, and feels high quality. The vacuum insulation really works, keeping my coffee hot for hours and my iced drinks cold all day. The lid seals tightly so there are no leaks, which is great for commuting. It fits nicely in my car cup holder and is easy to clean. Perfect for anyone who wants a reliable travel mug that actually works!”

Customer Review: “The mug is attractive, just the perfect color blue and it’s well made- the coffee doesn’t spill out of it like it does with so many of my other loose-lipped mugs. It retains the heat for several hours usually, fits holder in my car and the gripper makes for easy handling. The leak-less top system it has makes drinking and spillage easier to control (there’s a small hole at the top, which closes with the push-up part of the lid). Just about perfect, I’d say- meets all of my expectations for toting around my coffee everywhere constantly!”

Customer Review: “Loved this set of coffee cups. Good value for $ and they fit perfectly in my truck console Keeps cold drinks cold well over 24 hrs and hot nearly that long East to clean and dishwasher safe. The colors were not important to me but they are attractive. The vacuum seal is what really had me pick this brand. If someone tips over your cup, does not spill!”

Customer Review: “This travel mug is awesome! It keeps my coffee hot for hours (like actually hot, not lukewarm). The stainless steel feels sturdy and high quality, and the lid seals tight so I don’t have to worry about leaks in my car.It fits perfectly in my cup holder, is easy to clean, and doesn’t leave any weird taste. I’ve used it for iced coffee too and it keeps the ice from melting forever.Definitely worth it — I’d buy it again!”

Customer Review: “Excellent travel cup, keep the coffee warm for several hours and do not leak. The material feels resistant and of good quality. Perfect size to take in the car or to work. Highly recommended.”

Customer Review: “Very cute insulated mug!! I love the color of it! Keeps my coffee nice and warm in the mornings! I like the size of it and I really like the locking mechanism on the lid to prevent spills. I’ve tested it out and no leakage at all!”

Customer Review: “I LOVE this cup!!! As someone who likes to just throw stuff in my bag, this cup is completely leak proof and can be upside down in my bag and not spill. I’ve used it for both hot and cold drinks, it keeps it cold or hot for at least 4 hours–I can’t attest to any longer since I usually drink it within that time frame.It’s a little on the pricey side, but the quality is totally worth it. It’s also super easy to clean as you can fully disassemble it and clean all the components. It’s very functional and aesthetically pleasing. I love Owala products in general, and this is no exception.”

Customer Review: “Even better than what I thought these would be. They hold heat and cold ALL day. Literally.My coffee gets poured in at 5am and it’s still pretty hot at 5pm and beyond, so, EXCELLENT. Good job.Nice design fits in any cupholder. Maybe a little too loose but not a deal-breaker.Love, Love, Love the ability to CLOSE the mouth and OPEN with a flick of a finger. So many times I’ve accidentally spilled on blueprints or contracts but not any more (as long as I can remember to close it. lol). But now it may fall over and it is not a crisis. True containment. Keeping it closed when not drinking keeps the heat or cold in even better.I like the Army green one with the tactile grip handle, but midnight blue (almost black) is nice in it’s own way with the smooth handle. Wife got the stainless steel version, smooth handle. All good.(Talking to you Thermos guys… I’d like to see a 20-21oz in the same basic design. Maybe a little more of the tactile grip and slightly larger base for stability on slightly sloped surfaces like truck hoods, as long as it still does the cupholder thing. Seems like you still have lots of space to work with. And, hey…! Why all the difficult-to-remove plastic wrapping when you first get it?? My blue one got all scratched up trying to get that obnoxious, useless, wrapping off! That made me cry, figuratively).But, anyway… Definitely recommend!”

Customer Review: “This thermos mug was an easy yes for me — the built-in tea hook is what completely sold me! I love being able to secure my tea bag without it slipping into the mug. On top of that, it’s very well insulated, sturdy, and feels like great quality overall.My hot tea stays warm for several hours, which is exactly what I needed. It doesn’t leak (huge perk!), and the price was perfect compared to other similar products I’ve purchased in the past. Honestly, this was a no-brainer purchase and I’m so appreciative of how well it performs. Highly recommend!”

Customer Review: “I have always hated the oversized coffee thermoses so I was ecstatic to find this. I got the cute two tone pink & white one a couple of months ago and the paint is still perfect. It is lightweight even with coffee in it, and more importantly it fits in my cupholder. The shape of the cup and the texture of the paint ensures that it never slips as well. This wonderful cup keeps my coffee piping hot for up to three or four hours; I even have to take the lid off to let my coffee cool down a bit so I can drink it. Very easy to clean, and the seal on the lid is 100% secure. Also the mouth is the perfect size for sipping so my mouth doesn’t get flooded with searing hot coffee! Most importantly… it isn’t oversized.”

Customer Review: “I bought three of these — two as gifts and one for myself — and I’m very happy with them. The design is really cute, and they keep coffee hot for a long time.Even though the price is affordable, the quality feels much better than expected. The material is sturdy, and it definitely feels worth the price.Overall, a great purchase, especially if you’re looking for something stylish and practical.”

Customer Review: “Got one of these to see if they do what they said and what reviews the ai pulled up and it did. So I bought another. They like I had the ai pulled up about the cold time someone wrote that it kept ice still ice over night. And they do! I had bought another brand two of them and returned them and took a while to find these. They keep cofe hot a good 2-3 hours wich is good and they keep cold rely long the ice was still or some at least was still solid in the morning over night. Great seal size holds a vente star bucks a lot easier to clean them the ones I used to use wich was one of the reasons I looked for these. Great travel mug fits in my rather small cup holders so they probably will fit in most cup holders. Easy to use. The flip open lid is cool not as good as the other ones I used to use but that’s what makes these rely easy to clean less parts under the lid. They stand up to the reviews great cups”

Customer Review: “Bullet points of my new Meoke 24oz Tumbler:Preface – I do not, will not collect drinkware. I need only an army of ONE.NO SWEATThis tumbler will not get condensation on the outside of it.This means where ever it sits will not get wet. No more stuffing tissues in the bottom of your cars’ cup holders, no rings on tables or furniture! No slippery wet surface to hang onto when trying to pick it up.BECAUSE THE OUTSIDE STAYS DRY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM * LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS.WEIGHTIt’s heavy. I was used to a 24oz plastic tumbler. THIS is much heaver, weighing close to a pound empty.There is a short period before getting used to the weight difference. It’s very stable – tip resistant weighted bottom.It’s a good thing, because it’s not prone to being blown over outdoors in the wind vs a plastic tumbler.SIZEPerfect 24oz capacity for gas station high end automatic coffee dispenser machines.LID SIZEIf you can’t get the lid off because it’s too big or poorly designed, negates all other features!This is tumbler’s lid is a perfect example of engineering done right!My female hands are average size – (think a size M on the Playtex dishwashing glove chart).I am able to screw off this lid with ease! and it does not leak! — LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this lid. L O V E IT.ART / DESIGNWhat really cemented the sale was the attractive design. I liked the Tarot design with dark navy blue with gold accent celestial motif, but what a surprise, when I unboxed it and found the exterior quality is outstanding!This isn’t some skimpy applique, it feels as if it’s enameled. Really nice!Very impressed, no way can this design be washed off with normal use. Very cool.RETAINS TEMPERATUREIt’s summer, it’s hot with 85° to 105° heat indices.I drink ice coffee and a lot of it. The previous evening, before going out, I filled it with ice, poured room temp brewed coffee over the ice, added more ice, screw the lid on … then, promptly forgot tumbler on kitchen counter overnight. Surprise! 1st thing in the morning, the house is still a balmy 87° – I tipped open the built-in sip straw, took a sip and VIOLA! Cold Ice Coffee! – It kept my ice cubes overnight! and it wasn’t a sweaty mess. LOVE!Temperature retention. BIG YES!LEAKThis tumbler has not leaked, not one drop – even after it was dropped on my kitchen floor.IT DOES NOT LEAK!So, is there anything not to love about this metal, insulated, well engineered, pretty, high functioning tumbler?Pause . . . No.In the 4 months I’ve been using it – there is not – one – bad – thing – about – it.* PS… the price has come down too! — Get one, you’ll LOVE IT.”
