Thermos/Travel Mug Recommendations

[impromptuandy]

So, I'm looking for a "travel mug" (is that the official name for these things?) to bring with me throughout the day and drink tea out of. I don't need it to stay hot for particularly long or have a basket or anything. The main thing is to have as little plastic as possible in contact with the water, but looking at what's available this doesn't seem to be a big issue. (I'll probably take the lid off to drink anyway.) Either stainless steel or glass is fine.

I've looked here: http://thesweethome.com/reviews/best-travel-mug/

and also DTH has several: http://www.dragonteahouse.biz/thermos/

But there are a lot of these things! The Sweethome's recommendation seems nice, but the lid looks like it has several pieces to clean. So, I thought I'd ask if anyone here had one or knew about one that they'd recommend.

Thanks!

My basic Stanley Vacuum Bottle keeps things HOT (people are often startled by how hot it is even after several hours of sitting in the clinic workroom), there is only a plastic lid in contact with the contents, and if you don't like drinking out of the handy cup/lid, you can always bring along a separate cup.

I have one of these that I love. It is great for grandpa brewing all day, but it does require frequent top offs all day. Not huge, and requires a steady supply of hot water, but I use mine all day every day and it hasn't broken yet.

Thanks for the suggestions debunix and FiveStar. The Stanley bottle is just about what I'm looking for I think.

I have long enjoyed my wee 250 mL Sigg metro mug, which slips easily into a pocket, but I see they are moving to a new Thermo line with a squatter profile. At replacement time I'd lean towards the Zojirushi you linked, the likes of which used to be prohibitively expensive.
