I got a complementary travel mug from a car dealer and, if you'll forgive the pun, that thing has been my daily driver for three years now. But you might've convinced me to find my thermos, I'd almost forgotten how nice it is to have hot coffee a few hours after I poured it.

An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

I bought a thermos mug cheap from TK Max years ago, and I've made coffee at 6am and been able to drink it warm at 3pm. It's amazing. I.have to remember to let it cool before I stick the lid on because otherwise the coffee stays too hot sometimes.
As an added bonus it also fits in my bikes bottle cage so I can have hot coffee on rides as well.
I love my thermos.
Man, vacuum-sealed cups and flasks are one of those little things that remind you we have been living in the future for a hundred years or more. I have a Zojirushi tumbler that exposes about 7 in^2^ (45 cm^2^) to the air and still keeps coffee hot for a couple of hours.
Having a stainless steel (I tend to avoid plastic for hot food) thermos mug is great. One perk is that you can keep it in a bag without getting coffee everywhere.
