OUT
OF STOCK.
I've sold out of the Drive Time mugs and likely won't receive more until
after the holidays. I do have two very similar new mugs by Trudeau that
I've not yet had a chance to add to the site.
The
closest would be another mug by Trudeau called the Corona as shown at
the following link:
http://www.trudeaucorp.com/us/products/travel-mugs-carafes/insulation/double-wall/p-corona-087137.html
It’s
basically the same cup but with a 16 oz capacity and a molded rubber
grip and a caribiner clip instead of the handle.
Next
is a mug that they call the Sirius as shown at the link below:
http://www.trudeaucorp.com/us/products/travel-mugs-carafes/types/travel-mugs/p-sirius-0871152.html
It’s a similar 16 oz mug but with a more convenient mechanism
to open/close the flow. Rather than the twist mechanism in the Drive
Time and Corona, it has a flip-type switch at the top of the handle
that you flip forward to open and back to close which is much easier
to operate one-handed. A better approach I think if you’re using
it in a car.
Either
are available at the same cost. If you'd like to order, then please
do so using the "Add to Cart" button below and then leave
a note specifying which you'd prefer in the area provided when you go
through the check-out process.
I
also have the OXO
cups which have an easier to use push-button type
mechanism. Again, better if you’d be using it in a car. Also,
the OXO cups are vacuum sealed versus insulated and will keep things
hot/cold quite a bit longer.
-------------------------------------------------
The
Trudeau "Drive Time" Mug was named Best Travel Mug
by the Wall Street Journal. After trying it, I'd have to agree. Excellent!
Holds
18 ounces and the double-wall insulated design with stainless steel
interior keeps coffee, tea, or other drinks nice and hot (or cold) for
a long time (in the WSJ test, coffee was still at 125 degrees after
3 hours). Like the cup holders, these are virtually spill proof. Employs
a screw-type lid that's easy to operate and seals very securely. With
the lid closed, you can literally lay these down, turn them upside down,
and not a drop will drip. Opens easily and the flow is controlled with
a simple twist. Has a large, easy-to-access, soft-grip handle (converts
for left-handed use). The flared lip is easy to drink and pour from.
All in a nice brushed stainless package (other colors also available).
In
fact, I liked these so much that I've arranged to make them available
here at the lowest cost that you'll find anywhere on or off the Internet
(sold elsewhere for $19.99 - $24.99).
Note that none of
the insulated stainless mugs are recommended for use in microwave or
dishwasher. The caution relates to possibe damage to the seal due to
expansion from the heat. That said, as long as you remove it before
or wash without the heat cycle, then it should be OK. I've run mine
through quite a few times and I've seen no problems.
