THERMOS Stainless King Vacuum-Insulated Beverage Bottle, 40 Ounce, Midnight Blue

I needed a thermos for work because I don't like paying $5 for a cup of mediocre coffee. I had been using a no-name brand, but by the time I'd get to work, my coffee was almost cold. I was going to get a Stanley since they were all the rage last year, but then I came across this Thermos. To start, it's like 20 - 25% cheaper than a Stanley. It has a handle, making it less likely I'll drop it, and I like the stainless steel look. Plus, the cup on top is great to have.So, let's get right down to it.... does it keep my coffee hot? Well, hot seems a bit extreme. Very warm is more like it. You won't burn yourself, that's for sure, but you won't need a microwave as long as you drink it fast. It gets 5 stars because it's that much better than what I had been using. It's functional, easy to clean, durable, and it doesn't leak. If I were ordering again, I might even get a bigger size because when all is said and done, this 40 oz holds like 3 big mugs.

First of all, I was pleasantly surprised by the rubberized handle. The soft grip is comfortable to hold on to, so it is easier to carry, unlike the plastic handles on the older models. I love the brushed stainless steel finish with the Thermos logo inscribed on the bottle, ( not a sticker). The finish will not chip off like the painted version of this. ( I read from other customer reviews ) The outer cap is stainless steel also with plastic on the inside. The 40 oz size is perfect for several cups of coffee or tea. This thermos is very durable and keeps drinks hot or cold for a long time. Compared to other brands, of lesser quality, it is a good value for the money. I put it in my backpack and go to work without leaks. i use a long handled bottle brush inside to clean it by hand, or it Is dishwasher safe. I highly recommend this Thermos. I’m a happy customer!!!!

This is a really nice thermos. It keeps my coffee warm and I love the cap is also my cup!! Easy to clean as well.

AWESOME! Keeps coffee hot all day long. I bought another brand of thermos, starts with an S, and that one was not good at keeping things hot even for a short time. Returned to the OG Thermos and this thing is great. Highly recommend!

This Thermos keeps your beverages hot for about 18 to 24 hours. Beware of filling the Thermos all the way up to the top as the hot beverage will expand. Do not tighten the cap beyond a light hand-tightened force. Hot air builds up inside the Thermos and if the cap is too tight, you'll have an extremely hard time unscrewing it when it's full.

I've left tea in this for 24 hours and it was still significantly warm! Onoy negative thing is The handle sometimes doesn't want to flatten. Also sometimes I wish I could have a straw with it. I make my tea in the morning and don't tend to drink it until late at night and it's still very hot 12+ hours later.

This has been a great thermos. Unlike other brands I've tried, it really does keep my drinks hot for hours.

I bought this to keep water hot enough to brew tea a few hours after boiling, and boy howdy did it deliver. My husband wanted to hold afternoon tea for his mom for mother's day, with takeout from a local tea house, which includes loose leaf tea to brew at home. We wanted to bring everything to a park, so we packed up cute tea cups, and filled this thermos with boiling water to brew fresh tea when we arrived.I tested it's ability to retain heat before we used it for real, so I filled it halfway (one electric kettle full) with boiling water, closed it all the way, and forgot about it. Almost 2 days later, it's still hot enough to be uncomfy to leave your finger in, and certainly hot enough to brew tea.I found it easy to open and close, and I like the pour spouts on either side of the stopper that you can use when you unscrew it a bit, but really love that when it's fully tightened (with just normal grip strength, nothing crazy), it doesn't leak at all. That being said, this is definitely not a commuter drink it in the car travel mug, it's more of a campfire-side stationary use thermos, but it's still decently portable. Since it doesn't leak, you could easily use a carabiner to clip it to a backpack, or put it inside a larger backpack. I don't love the handle for constant holding, though- it's like those strange flat-collapsing handles you'd find on an old school metal lunchbox- so I wouldn't carry it around that way.As another reviewer mentioned, the care guide is inside the bottle, so make sure you remove that before you wash or use it. In these instructions, it does say it's top rack dishwasher safe (I'd love to know how on earth they think we're fitting a 40oz tumbler in the top rack of a dishwasher though), but recommends hand washing because dishwasher detergent is harsher and could hurt the finish. I'm a death-before-hand-wash girlie tho, so here's hoping it holds up in the bottom row of the dishwasher. It looks quite nice right now, but I'm not super pressed about it if that goes to crap from dishwasher use.I'm hopeful this will last us a very long time, but I'll update if/when it becomes unable to properly do it's job.
