 Good thermos | |
| The thermos bottle really keeps things hot for hours and hours, the size is nice and the handle is a handy feature. The only complaint I have is that the cap has started to malfunction and I can't get anything to pour out threw the pour-spout and have to take the whole cap off. | |
 Works Very Well | |
| I've been very happy with this bottle. I bought it to replace my old green Aladdin which just wasn't cutting it anymore. This bottle is much smaller yet holds the same amount. I've popped it open 6 hours later and my coffee was still too hot to gulp. No complaints here. | |
 no better than other vacuum bottles | |
| The main reason I purchased this bottle was to have coffee available later in the day. I find that it does a poor job of keeping coffee warm after a couple hours, especially if you do not fill the bottle completely up to the top. After 6-8 hours, coffee takes on an odd taste. Though I prewarmed the bottle with hot tap water, the effectiveness of keeping coffee warm didn't change. If I have to preheat the bottle with boiling water, I'd be getting to the point of doing too much work to have warm coffee!! If you use the cap as a drinking cup, you'll lose heat as the pouring spout is made completely out of plastic. Warmth can be felt coming through the top of the bottle. The outside of the bottle does start to get warm after a while. The spout is neat, but is it really worth an additional $10-$20 over other types of vacuum bottles (e.g. thermos brand twist spout)? I'd say no. I recommend cheaper alternatives. Not happy with the purchase. |
