I have owned my yeti for nearly 4 years, it is as good now as the day I got it. Heat retention is very good but I drink fast and hard so don't really give it a chance to cool down much. The sliding magnetic tab is brilliant for easy removal and cleaning. Confident it will last another 4 years.
Those Contigo (and most mugs, to be fair) with colour layers disintegrate in the dishwasher pretty quickly. Is always best to go for the aluminium without the painting. To be fair, if you get a colour one that begins to lose the layer, you can take it all off with a strong sponge and you'll basically get the aluminium version after you are done.
@@CoopMauKona I had a dishwasher-safe one from amazing that lost the colour. I think the YETI's are the only ones to hold a wash from what I've read (but haven't tested it myself) At any rate, I think most will lose it just from hand washing alone overtime.
I wouldn't recommend the Contigo autoseal for people who like to add fat or milk with their coffee. You can't deep clean the lid, because of the mechanical parts. I couldn't wash off the spoiled milk smell after a year of use....sorry that's gross.
If you want a 'coffee' travel flask, you need one that allows the aroma out too when open. Otherwise you could be drinking any hot drink if you can't smell it. I have the Contigo, and whilst excellent I don't like it for coffee. Looking at Aladdin which allows the coffee to exit via an open spout first, so letting the smell out too.
@@helenalovelock1030 yes, for a flask that's not to big. Its neat, not too fat, keeps the drink hot amazingly (too hot), nice lip, nice lid opening button, easy to take apart and clean and has a fantastic seal. Nothing I would change for what it is. A traditional flask gives a better 'drinking' experience being nearer to a cup to get the full aroma, but these are bigger and cumbersome. I did get, what I think was a returned flask, which was the wrong colour and rattled (the inner chamber was touching the outer, this would transfer the heat). This was from Amazon by Amazon US. I'd buy another if I lost this one.
Hi. I'm Marta and I work at the Łukasiewicz Research Network in Poland. I'm developing a model that automatically generates people's feedback. Could I use your video about thermal mug?
The Yeti travel mugs are attractive, and the mag slider lid is pretty slick (even though they leak, a lot) but they are not very good at keeping hot beverage hot. My Yeti ramblers can barely keep coffee hot for six hours before it is very cold. By comparison, a Thermos King will keep coffee hot for at least eight hours.
@@robertpoche1585my yeti rambler keeps coffee hot for atleast 6 hours with the hotshot cap and doesn’t leak..I haven’t tested it more than that, who takes that long to drink a cup of coffee lol
@@TheBluceRee It's honestly just a personal preference, whatever works best for you is amazing. I don't like yeti lids because they can spill and they, by design, let heat out. But if you want an insulated mug that has a lid you can sip on, that design is pretty good. I'm a much bigger fan of screw on lids. I don't really drink coffee anymore, as a result a larger container for water is preferable to me.
If your Hydro Flask Flex Sip Lid is leaking, it’s not assembled correctly. Most often it’s bc the red seal is upside down. Why on earth that matters is beyond me but it does.
One thing I don't like about the Zojirushi is the cap have lots of rubber and crevices making it harder to clean than other travel mugs. If you have tendency to leave your coffee inside without cleaning for 2+ days, it will become moldy and leave a smell that's hard to remove. So if you do get this, I recommend cleaning it at the end of day.
All these suck. Get a Stanley big grip beer stein or a military government issue canteen cup. You will thank me later when you are binge watching Netflix.
I’ve got one that I use for scotch (with a large ice cube) and have been given two others as gifts. How do you get past the metal taste with hot beverages?
I prefer any mug with a straw so I can control the amount of liquid am sipping with the others sometimes I forget it’s still very hot and it ends up burning my tongue and lips
Some couture contigos just lid dishwasher safe, pain in ass went to yeti,my housekeeperkept putting contigos in dishwasher ruined paint replaced with yeti.
Not a word about the most important question. Does it fit in my car's cup holder?

Why bother then just use a mug 😂😂

Contigo (and I'd imagine most of these) are not dishwasher safe.

soak it in bleach water?
I had to use a WaterPik to clean mine
Pro trick: watch movies at Flixzone. Been using it for watching all kinds of movies these days.
@Ezekiel Seth Yup, I have been using flixzone for since december myself :D
@Ezekiel Seth Yea, been using Flixzone for since november myself :)
I have a 20 minute commute to work and have a yeti. By the time I get to work my coffee has cooled off so much it can be chugged
EcoVessel Trimax?

Did you end up getting it?
@@JuanPablo-gr5pp I bought a Zojirushi.

It's highly irritating that you can't get replacement lids for the contigo

Zojirushi. Everything else would be second choice.
Yeti is definitely my #1..,owned for years and is still as good as the day I bought it

I have a yeti and it's what I would call average, not amazing, but it gets the job done.
Okay, what is amazing then?

Anyone got that dirt cheap Temu 2 cup thermos I see advertised everywhere? Is it as garbage as I imagine?

I recommend one of Zojirushi vacuum insulated mugs & bottles. You’ll ilke it.

Kinto, Zojirushi, Fellow Carter, Frank Green, Miir,
I'm trying know about it.
Thermos brand...makes a great coffee thermos. Leak proof and keeps it hot for a good 6 hrs. Around 25$.
So after 6 hours it begins to get cooler? Or at 6 hours it is just cool?
Completely agree that the Thermos King is an excellent travel mug. It keeps coffee hot for hours longer the Yeti rambler and is easy to clean.
What was the little shot glass sized glass you used ?
Contigo has garbage mechanism. Extremely hard to clean that dumb mechanism. If you had some coffee with cream, it all stick in that trigger mechanism.
Contigo lids are a pain to clean. They will collect and hold the old coffee and will eventually make everything taste bad.
LOL @ "'thermii" - it doesn't sound wrong..
Yeti leaks for sure, tried and tested
All these suck. Get a Stanley big grip beer stein or a military government issue canteen cup. You will thank me later when you are binge watching Netflix.
We have the Yeti Rambler love them

@@roybenavides5609 personally I never noticed it with mine but I only use it for wellwater sweet tea and black coffee
@@dennymiller4028Would you say it is a good mug fir green tea bag ?
the lid of the contigo is so hard to wash thoroughly even in the dishwasher, Ill never buy one of these again
Stanley???
I prefer any mug with a straw so I can control the amount of liquid am sipping with the others sometimes I forget it’s still very hot and it ends up burning my tongue and lips
Lul what does he mean "ounce"? Is that like deciliter?
nice
Wow seriously didn't consider titanium mugs that will last a lifetime...
Contigo body is hand wash. Lid is dishwasher safe and opens up for a more thorough clean. LOVE this product but be careful.. drop once and it's junk.
Any vacuum will be compromised after a drop
Thanks, helped me a lot.
Some couture contigos just lid dishwasher safe, pain in ass went to yeti,my housekeeperkept putting contigos in dishwasher ruined paint replaced with yeti.
I had to come and search this after seeing a glass travel mug😂😂. I am questioning my own logic lol.
My favorite mug is Takeya. That sucker really is leakproof.
How many oz is your mug ? I was looking at this too ! And I’m new to the brand .
Yeti not microwaveable. I’d rather ceramic
Just purchased the CONTIGO from Amazon. It leaked horribly, even in the upright stance. Not returnable. Not a worthwhile purchase...for any price.
Yeti gets rusty!
Contigo sucks.....
Hurley? 🥹
