I broke my Starfux0rs one that I got as a gift a while back, and I'm looking to get another one. Something with no handles, keeps the heat and is relatively leak-proof? What do you all use? Any suggestions would be awesome. Thanks!

Wrong forum! =p It'll get moved to Fashion & Shopping no doubt.
Why not just get another Starbucks one?

Go to Costco they have these awesome ones that have a button on the handle so its totally leak proof until you decide to drink. Push the button and it slides open the spout. It also doesn't jam up with coffee so you can get a good pull. I hate ones that just fucking dribble the liquids.

to be honest you could even go to XS cargo, some locations have tumblers/thermos with the red pop top, so that it's sealed and can bounce everywhere without spilling... I got mine for

It so rocks... you can hold that shit upside down throw it around and it won't leak. I've tried! hah. I told you it was FTW! I put Ice water in mine yesterday morning and it still had ice in it this afternoon when I went to drain it out.

so i'm guessing it's a screwtop then?
pretty cool styling!!!
+Kardboard+
03-08-2009, 07:13 AM
Yes, and only a one-and-a-half twist. It's crazy sealed, very well done. The only gripe that I have with it is I sometimes had coffee flying out the spout (like a few drops) if I release the button on it right as I take my mouth off lol Bad timing and no appreciation for physics and pressures. :p
for me, im always misplacing them, or damaging them, so im just buying the el cheapo tumblers because they seem to get replaced almost once a month =/

those are cool, just missing a handle...
Kardboard, those mugs are awesome! Just make sure you wash it REALLY good, they are a pain in the ass to wash. You end up tasting soap for weeks too if you don't rinse it for like 15 minutes... uggg. Otherwise completely awesome.
+Kardboard+
03-23-2009, 01:16 AM
That's the thing I'm discovering now...just what is the best way to wash them? Soak them in soapy water? :(

For the lid:
Soak em for like 20 minutes in super super hot soapy water, when you rinse be sure to press the button like 123894719023 times to get water in and out of it. Also, don't use anything other than dishsoap, or you will taste it for weeks.
The body is pretty straight forward.

try using the expresso machine coffee cleaner thing. I don't know the brand but its a powdery substance. If you are a frequent customer of a small coffee shop, i am sure they would clean yours for free for you. I go to the grind coffee shop everyday, and they are willingly to clean it for me when I ask, usually about once a month!

I love the Grind, but I don't get to go there too often, and parking's annoying there. :p

DAMMIT.
So I just dropped my Contigo mug hard and it's busted now. No dents, but the Autoseal mechanism doesn't, uh, auto-seal any more.
Any one see them being sold locally any more? I know that Costco no longer carries them and will not in the future, after I called their local offices to check a while back when I wanted to buy one as a b-day gift.

You sure it's not the kids one? They still stock the plastic kids ones, but not the stainless steel ones.
But I'll go check, thanks! :)

Costco is low on Contigo mugs. I bought a pair two days ago and there were maybe a dozen left. I'm sure other branches have some left. Abbotsford, if you're desperate. Just go to any location and have them look up the amount each store has in their computer.
