Chilly's series 2 double-wall insulated travel coffee cup, 340ml

Chilly's cup

Best versatile reusable coffee cup

Chilly's stylish coffee cup keeps coffee hot for up to four hours (or smoothies and chilled drinks cold for up to six hours) on your home office desk or morning commute. Using advanced double-wall vacuum technology, the cup is made of powder-coated high-grade stainless steel to keep drinks at the right temperature for longer and to preserve the flavour and freshness of its contents.

The cup comes with a rotating lock mechanism and a non-slip silicone base that creates a very tight seal; this prevents leaks, but it's not fully leakproof at very high temperatures or if the cup is fully inverted or shaken.
