I just wanted to see what everybody around here uses for a travel mug? I've used the Harbor Freight version of the Yeti and also actual Yeti with hit or miss results..

I use the Wally World version of the Yeti. I bought three and the daughter lost one at high school. $4.99?
Contigo (cheap at walmart). The lid seals well enough to have upside down no leaks, and still one hand open for drinking. Keeps warm longer than Yeti (less heat loss through the lid).
My sister bought me a Mighty Mug for my birthday about a year ago. It's got a sort-of suction cup on the bottom so you can't knock it over. It doesn't really stick to a surface, but you have to pull straight up in order for it to move. The lid seals so well that as long as you don't fill past the little line on the inside, you can store it on its side, upside down, whatever and it will not leak a drop. And it keeps my coffee hot all day and I've had ice last for more than a day in it. They're a little spendy, but worth every penny.

Another vote for the WalYeti...
This guy, in otterbox yellow and the flip top lid that snaps shut. I make tea first thing that lasts all morning. It insulates very well. Easy dishwasher clean at night.

40oz is probably a bit much for coffee, but they have 18oz versions.
I have left my black one in a car while I did Disney and after the entire day in the Florida sun it still had ice in it.
I seem to always get them for free from work. The ones that have lasted are all Tervis. My wife has a Yeti. Really nice. The Harbor Freight version is probably as good.
But my favorite? Disposable. Yeah yeah, bad for the world, etc, but I use them so rarely as I'm almost always at home or work when I'm having my coffee that it is just easier.
Real Yeti 16oz tumbler. Got it for free. Works fine. Had it about a year, daily use. Dropped it plenty onto concrete and still going strong.
Ello Ogden. The closest thing to drinking out of an actual coffee cup I've found in a travel format. Twelve bucks.
Not as durable as plastic or metal offerings, but for me it's enough more pleasant to drink out of to be worth the care (or replacement cost).
Vacuum mug combined with phase change layer that more-or-less immediately turns very hot coffee into a drinkable temp, and then it stays at that same temp for hours.
Hydro flask 20oz gift from the wife for Christmas one year, It has been great for the last year.
Previously went through probably 10 Starbucks branded coffee cups the stainless cup held up for awhile but lost their heat retention after a 6 months but the lids might as well been glass they broke so quickly.
