The Ninja Thirsti may be low-tech, but it offers impressive insulation and intelligent design features to keep your drinks hot or cold, depending on what you need.

Pros

  • Keeps hot drinks hot for hours
  • Keeps cold drinks cold even longer
  • Leak proof lid design

Cons

  • Dishwasher safe, but tall design makes it hard to fit
  • 700ml is a lot of coffee

Is a travel mug really a product you need to make an informed decision while buying? It’s an insulated cup that you drink from!

But having just tested the Ember travel mug 2+, I couldn’t say no when the offer to test the new Ninja Thirsti came my way, if only for a point of comparison.

This $59 mug offers a low-tech counterpoint to the Ember. There’s no battery, no LCD screen and no charging coaster.

But despite its low-tech nature, it produces high-end results. It may have a slight premium over other models, but the Thirsti is a worthwhile investment for Saturday morning sports or for camping trips.
