Details on the Copco Thermal Travel Mug are what make it a top choice for people on the go. It holds a whopping 24 ounces, yet its tapering design leaves the base slim enough to fit in standard car cup holders. A non-skid bases prevents tipping and a tight fitting lid prevents big spills. The contoured handle works for right or left handers. Hand washing is recommended for best care.

Look, the only people who should be seriously considering this mug are people who need a mug that holds 24 ounces. These are mostly folks that drink 24 ounces of their beverage in the time it takes most folks to drink eight. If you're in that crowd, read on. If you're not - if you're looking for a system that will keep your coffee hot for eighteen hours, or that won't sully the impeccable flavor of your Guaruvian kitty-dung extra roast - look elsewhere.
OK, did all those dilettantes leave? If you're still reading, it's because you want a 24-ounce (or larger) mug, probably for hot beverages. If that's the case, you have only a few choices: the CopCo Big Joe (either single or double), the Thermos DF4010, or some plastic mugs offered mostly at hunting/camping or NASCAR sites. The ones from the hunting/camping sites won't fit into your car cupholders. The NASCAR ones look like they do, but some of them are so huge, they also look like they'll upset in your lap ever time you take a right turn. So I'm going to keep my comments to the CopCo and Thermos offerings.
I bought both of them several months ago. I have used 'em more-or-less interchangeably since then, and I feel like I have enough information to make a decent review of each. I take my coffee with adulterants (milk & sugar), and I have not noticed any cup-taste being transferred to the coffee. Either of them will keep the coffee hot for the half-hour or so that I usually take to drink it. Both have handles that are only attached at the top: I notice that, when I put either into the car cupholder I usually use, the bottom of the handle extends below the top of the cupholder - so that if the handle WERE attached on the bottom, the mug would not fit into the cupholder correctly. I have not noticed any problem with looseness or weakness of the handle on either mug.
The top of the Thermos mug has a slider to cover the drinking hole; the top of the CopCo dies not. The sides of the CopCo fit more snugly into my cupholder, and have rubber traction inserts that help to hold it in place. That said, however, I have not noticed that either has problems with looseness or insecurity in the cupholder.
Neither is dishwasher-safe; the trapped air between the steel exterior and the plastic interior will expand in the dishwasher and possibly crack the plastic. The tops may be dishwasher-safe, but I have not risked them (hey, I'm washing the mug anyway; how tough is it to wash the top, too?). And the tops are NOT interchangeable one with the other.
I like the CopCo better, but for no good reason I can figure out (it may be that I just don't like the tumblehome sweep of the shape of the Thermos as much). So pay your money and take your choice.

I had a stainless mug and it really kept the coffee hot for a long time, several hours. This mug is much lighter, being that it's plastic. It feel cheap and doesn't keep the coffee hot at all, maybe an hour. If you just want something to grab for coffee on the way to work, I guess it's OK. It fits in a standard cup holder and it's easy to drink from. It's not spill proof but it doesn't splash either. Because it has a metal exterior you can't microwave it, so you need to drink your coffee within about an hour or drink it cold. The fully metal mug I have doesn't fit into a cup holder, it's got a wide bottom. I was looking for this shape and the qualities of the steal mug.
After several months of trying to use this mug I finally threw it out. I was drinking hot tea and the plastic smell and taste was so strong it scared me, so out it went. I'm sticking to stainless in and out.

The pros are : It's stainless, Kept a coffee hot long enough for me, Size was perfect for me.
The cons : Price ( saw a two pack (after I ordered from here)at *al-*art for $7.98 in auto section,) The Lid is NOT a spill proof locking lid top (my office requires mugs to be), The top is not a screw on lid, its a push in and pull out takes quite a bit of hand stength.
Wish I had known before ordering it didn't have a spill proof lockable lid top.

Great mugs, I bought two. Easy to use, it's a mug. Just remember to unscrew the bottom so gunk doesn't build up between the inner and outer shells. Read more

Big Joe is "Joe Cool"
I have tried several (more than 5) Travel Mugs over the past year or so, and the 24oz Big Joe is the best I've found. With a full load of ice, it keeps liquid cold for 6-8 hours. Read more

Terrible design, cheap construction
This mug was poorly designed and constructed very flimsily. The handle feels like it's going to fall off when you hold a full cup. Read more

Good quality, but open drinking hole in lid is a BAD IDEA
A really nice cup except that the open drinking hole in the lid is such a bad idea. Gave this as a gift, and I am sorry I did not check out the lid first. Read more

Good coffee mug
I wanted a mug that could hold a lot of coffee so I wouldn't have to go out for a second cup every morning. This 24 oz mug does the trick. Read more

Cools off too quickly
I wanted a 24 oz. mug so I could drink coffee all morning without refilling. It does hold 24 oz. but the coffee gets tepid after about 2 hours. Read more
