What we liked

  • + Listing states THERMALOCK double-wall insulation keeps drinks hot up to 6 hours or cold up to 12 hours.
  • + One-piece SnapSeal lid allows one-handed drinking and is described as leak-proof, with no loose caps to lose.
  • + Fits car cup holders and, per the listing, sits below most single-serve brewers; lid is top-rack dishwasher safe.

Trade-offs

  • - No built-in tea infuser or strainer, so loose leaf has to be brewed separately and poured in.
  • - No temperature display like the older LED model; the body is hand-wash only according to the listing.
