Complete Guide on Differences between Travel Mug and Tumbler
When it comes to enjoying your favorite beverage on the go, both stainless steel travel mug and tumbler are popular options. However, each has distinct features to meet specific needs. The following article explores the key differences between a travel mug and a tumbler to help consumers decide which one serves them best.
Thermos L.L.C. provides many kinds of travel mug and tumbler.
Travel Mug
A travel mug, also known as a travel coffee mug, is a compact container designed to keep drinks like coffee or tea warm while you’re on the move. These mugs usually hold 12-16 oz (0.3-0.5 liter) of liquid, making them easy to carry.
Made from materials such as stainless steel with insulated walls, travel mugs maintain the temperature of hot drinks for extended periods. They feature a screw-on lid that ensures a leak-proof seal and often come with a built-in handle for comfortable transportation.
Many types of travel mug and tumbler are available for online purchase.
Stainless Steel Tumbler
A stainless steel tumbler, also referred to as a travel tumbler or insulated tumbler, offers more versatility since it’s ideal for both hot and cold beverages. Capable of holding 20 to 40 oz (0.6-1.2 liters) of liquid, tumblers are perfect for those who prefer a bigger drink.
They are designed with double-walled vacuum insulation, which prevents temperature loss. Stainless steel tumblers tend to have straight or tapered sides and usually lack a handle. Instead, many come with splash-proof, snap-on lids that allow for easy sipping through a straw.
Key Differences
Handle
Travel Mug: Often includes a built-in handle for easier grip and mobility, especially when used for hot beverages.
Tumbler: No handle included, but it is possible to buy slide-on handles to convert them into a more portable solution.
Shape
Travel Mug: features straight sides and is shorter, so it can fit into cup holders.
Tumbler: taller, with a wider opening that tapers toward the base, giving it a sleeker appearance and improved stability.
Size
Travel Mug: 12 oz to 16 oz, perfect for moderate portions of hot drinks.
Tumbler: available in 20 oz, 30 oz and 40 oz, suitable for those who want to carry larger amounts of liquid.
Lid Type
Travel Mug: available with a screw-on lid that ensures a leak-proof seal, perfect for active commuters.
Tumbler: designed with push-on or snap-on lids that are splash-proof, and many include a built-in straw or a larger opening for easy sipping.
Tips for Selection
The difference between a travel mug and a tumbler comes down to personal preferences and how we plan to use it. If we need a smaller container for hot beverages with a secure, leak-proof lid and easy handling, a travel mug is the better option.
Choosing a travel mug or a tumbler depends on user's preference.
On the other hand, for an item that can hold more liquid and keep both hot and cold drinks at the right temperature, go with a tumbler.
Understanding the mentioned above distinctions between a travel mug and a tumbler will help users pick the right container of their drink.
