I have just thrown out 4 travel mugs because of poor design. They were the ones with stainless outsides and plastic liners. Some I bought, some were the promotional type.
I got to thinking how the gap between the stainless and plastic would be just a huge bacteria trap and couldn't deal with the thought...
What I am searching for is:
Screw on lid, not friction fit. "Spill proof" pop on type lids have failed me in the past.
Twist open sipping feature. The sliding tops often become loose and close just when you are taking a drink! The open type with no closure are OK but not "spill proof". (I'm clumsy)
Dishwasher safe. (I'm lazy)
no more than $15 bucks (I'm kinda cheap)
A co-worker has a Gevalia with better than average design features but says hand wash.

This looks promising too:

but they don't list capacity?!
What is the ultimate travel mug for coffee snobs?
