Tugo Luggage Cup Holder Review - 409

What is the Tugo?: It’s a nifty little cup holder that clips onto the bars of your roller luggage.

Price: Around $13 

What we like: As one of those annoying people who constantly lets you know how much water they drink, I have a water bottle on me at all times. By the way, I’ve already had over 32 ounces and it’s not even noon yet. After a nasty incident involving Junior Mints in a watery puddle at the bottom of my favorite Chloe knock off purse, I stopped toting around water bottles in my hand bag. The Tugo is a pretty convenient little invention that keeps your refreshments (whatever they may be) handy when traveling. When you’re done using Tugo, it folds up to take virtually no space in that carry on bag that you’ve crammed full of five outfits for a weekend trip.

The not so great: I probably wouldn’t put anything in Tugo that doesn’t have a lid. Tugo stays upright when you tilt your bag, but there’s always the splash factor. Secondly, it can be more of a pain in the ass than a convenience when it’s time to fold up your bag and walk down stairs.

All in all, this is a product I would use and probably pimp out to my traveling buds.
