This is not an attempt at the most boring thread title in the Lounge, i promise. It is a genuine request.
I am fed up of these types of mug leaking, iv never had one where the lid seals correctly. So, before i throw money on another one, can anyone recommend a mug that doesn't leak when tilted or accidentally knocked over. Id like to be able to throw the empty mug in my work bag and not worry about the remains of my morning brew dribbling out.

I use this one..
I've had this full upside done in a laptop full of hot cofee and even with me moving around a lot it didn't leak once.
The only con about this mug is getting the right temperature to make it drinkable...even hot water that's been standing in the kettle for 10 mins and then drinking out of the mug after 30 mins is too hot. This is the first thermal mug I have had so not sure if it just this mug or all thermal mugs get too to drink initially.

You can get a s
t version from stores, but the Life Venture ones are a 100 times better.I been through a fair few, keep forgetting about them having coffee in them, then opening them after a few weeks and they're full of mould.
I use a Primus Commuter mug, had it for a few years and it's always been great. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Primus-thermal-travel-400m... (the first few pics on there make it look a bit of a funny shape, I don't know if they've changed the design or if it's just the picture...)

Correct. The Vambo said:

Correct. Edit, that ebay link is the old design. IMO keeps drinks hotter for an extra half hour over the newer design but isn't as good to clean the insides of the autoseal as the new type.

I'd just like one that doesn't make the tea or coffee taste of plastic!
Always go the metal ones over plastic. I user a Berghaus one that tastes fine, but has the lid issues the OP doesn't want. I do a lot of work with the army and they all carry similar ones to the Life Venture link above, screw top gives you a good seal and far easier to clean than varieties with fancy valves.Gassing Station | The Lounge | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
