Anyone use one of these? Plenty out there on the market, but would like one that doesn't leak and does the job.

Many thanks

My favourite one is the Costa one. Keeps hot drinks hot and doesn't make tea taste funny the way the metal ones do. Appreciate that's less of an issue for coffee drinkers.

Contigo

Contigo. Expensive but brilliant. Keeps drinks hot for hours. Has a locking system so you can literally throw it in your bag and it doesn't leak. Streets ahead of any others

Another vote for Contigo, I’ve got 3 (one for coffee, one for normal tea & one for peppermint tea- they do retain odour but I forgive them)

well that's almost unanimous, thank you, that's one for my list. Santa's helper was struggling with something for me:)

I’ve got a Camelbak. Love it. Doesn’t leak and keeps my drink warm for hours (almost too hot!).

Dh had contigo for around a year and thought they were brilliant, but both started leaking and I replaced with another contigo which leaked within 6 months. I replaced with a thermos one that had good reviews on amazon, he much prefers the thermos, keeps drinks hotter for much longer and 2 years on still no leaks.

I use contigo for cool drinks and it is ok, but they don’t stay really cool for very long.

This flask is amazing. Doesn’t leak and stays hot for hours.

I only drink coffe out of it - tea might taste a bit odd.

I love my Contigo. I just dropped it and damaged the cap though so need to replace it. Definitely worth the money.

If it's not too late - a Kleen Kanteen vacuum cup. Loads of my friends have them and rave about them. www.babipur.co.uk/eco-living-home/klean-kanteen-eco-water-bottles-coffee-flasks/klean-kanteen-16oz-wide-vacuum-insulated-cafecap2-0.html

Contigo! Keeps drinking piping hot, doesn’t leak and comes in a range of colours. Had mine ages, still fab. Have actually bought another to keep in our motorhome and that one came with a lock but you don’t need one with a lock.

Came on to say Contigo. They are absolutely the best!

Contigo might not leak but it doesn't keep my drinks piping hot for long (an hour at room temperature, less on the side of a freezing football pitch). Also retains the coffee smell quite badly.

Costco’s own brand version of the Contico. Doesn’t leak, keeps drinks hot.

The Nespresso one is great, looks good, keeps tea/coffee hot, doesn't leak and you can put it in the dishwasher. I love mine.

Another vote for a config here. I dishwasher mine and haven't noticed it retaining an odour. I even dropped it and it didn't break - has a big debt now though . . .

Contigo, damn autocorrect.

Really surprised that you have said it doesn’t keep your drink hot. Maybe it has an issue? Made a coffee in mine the other day and THREE hours later it was cool enough to drink!
