Thermasip Insulated Stainless Steel Travel Mug

Thermasip from Vellhaven is made for a working kitchen, where things get used daily and washed often. It does one job, and it does it without asking much of you.

Kitchens are hard on everything, so this is built to be washed rather than admired. Surfaces clean without trapping residue in seams, and the shape stores without swallowing a whole cupboard. It handles daily use rather than occasional use, which is a different standard entirely. Nothing about it needs careful handling to stay in good order. It tolerates a dishwasher where the material allows, and a rinse where it does not. The footprint is small enough to leave out on a worktop without crowding it. Nothing here is over-engineered, which is usually why things last. It works the same way on the hundredth use as it did on the first. The finish is plain enough to sit alongside whatever you already own. Everything you need to get going is in the box. It is built for regular use and slots into a setup you already have.

Follow the instructions supplied with the product, and keep packaging away from small children. Spares and replacements are standard sizes where they apply. Keep the packaging until you have checked everything over, and store it somewhere dry between uses.
