Review on Insulated Stainless Steel Camp Mug: CamelBak Horizon 12 oz - Tri-Mode Lid for Ultimate Versatility by Noah Lewis

A long time ago I was looking for a stainless steel mug because I liked the idea of enjoying a cup of hot tea or coffee longer than a porcelain mug would allow. There were two requirements that had to be met: the cup had to be dishwasher safe, not just the lid, and the cup had to hold 15 ounces of liquid. World of Steel Cups. I was leaning toward the Rtic mug, but reviews of the integrity of the seal in the lid were lackluster. I didn't want to buy a Yeti mug, even though it filled all the boxes very carefully and even came in a wide variety of colors. (I have a hard time supporting this company as many of their products seem overpriced to say the least.) Horizon Collection. To my delight, the mug and its three-way lid are dishwasher safe. The downside is that it only holds 12 ounces of liquid, which is actually less if you also want to secure the lid. I bit the bullet and bought a larkspur cup. I really like this mug. I'm happy to report that it keeps my tea/coffee hot much longer than any porcelain mug I've used. In fact, I haven't even used the lid because the thermal mug does its job well on its own. An added BONUS is that there is a secure silicone pad on the bottom, thanks to which the mug stays in place on smooth surfaces and I also don't accidentally slam it shut. Cheers to innovation! The inside of the mug needs a thorough cleaning and wiping before first use as I noticed gray stains on my white kitchen towel from the inside of the mug. Another point that I did not find particularly impressive is that the liquid gets under the moving part of the three-mode cover. A thorough cleaning will most likely be required to prevent the build up of bacteria from various liquids in the future and I'd happily dismantle the lid for that reason, but on the whole he's pretty picky. this mug and have purchased several for family members based on my positive experience with the product.
