Thermos Lightweight and Compact Stainless Steel Thermos Flask 1 Litre Midnight Blue

This is a great item is is very good value for money and keeps my hot coffee hot . Its lovely shiny exterior and scratch free surface is great for its durability. Keeping me hydrated as I use it again and again.

I bought this flask as a replacement for my previous Thermos flask, which had come to the end of its useful life. I chose this one because I liked my previous Thermos flask, particularly for its excellent heat retention properties, and thought that this would make an ideal replacement and I also liked (and expected to use) the 15 year guarantee. I am a truck driver and use my flask every working day - nearly 270 days each year. My flasks (I have gone through numerous over the years, of various brands, and had found the Thermos make to be the most robust and the best insulator) get a pretty, actually, very, hard time. I am usually pleased if one lasts much more than a year. I normally pay around £10 for a flask and, although this one was a bit more, I have kept my receipt and guarantee, expecting, as I said before, to make one, or probably several more, claims over the 15 years covered by the guarantee. I could not have been more wrong! This new flask appears to be much stronger than all earlier models of any brand. Having used it now for more than 1 month, it is still totally unmarked - not a scratch or dent in sight! This is a first, as my flasks get pretty rough handling, bouncing about in my kit bag or when stored in my cab as I travel around the Country. However, I think the biggest improvement is in the combined stopper/pourer. This has almost always been the component to fail first, with the spring, clip or other moving parts breaking or failing - probably contributed to by limescale build up from the very hard water in my local supply. The pouring mechanism has now been completely redesigned and, so far, shows no evidence of being affected by limescale and, as the need for a spring has been eliminated, I do not now expect this part to fail. The effectiveness of the seal has actually improved too:- As I 'superheat' my coffee in the microwave before pouring into the flask, condensation has always gathered on the inside of the lid/cup on all previous flasks - especially after the first cup had been poured. This has led to dripping and/or leakage each time the lid was removed. This new flask, though, suffers from negligible condensation and has not yet dripped once. The final benefit of the newly designed stopper/pourer is that my coffee is kept hotter for longer. My previous Thermos flasks would keep my 'superheated' coffee hot for 12 hours, or a little longer, if the stopper had not been opened earlier. This period was reduced proportionally according to how many and how soon I had poured drinks before the 12 hour mark. Possibly due to the improved seal, I find that I can now have an earlier cuppa or even cuppas and my coffee will still be hot for up to about 12 hours. If the flask is left unopened, the contents are still piping hot up to around 14 to 15 hours after filling. I cannot comment on the effectiveness of keeping drinks cold - I use mine only for hot coffee. As you can probably tell, I am delighted with my new flask and I would heartily recommend it to anyone who might anticipate similar using and 'abusing' of their insulated drinks container. :-)

Very good quality. Keeps drinks hot. Bought for husband at work.

I hoped this new design of a longer lasting heat retention smaller Thermos flasks, would work as well as the larger ones do.It doesn't. PRO'S....I can get my hands round this lightweight flask,& holds 2 cup/mug fulls of liquid.Much easier & quicker to pour without risk of spillage,by undoing the lid to pour.I use a rod to push a T towel inside,& turn as pull the towel out holding the T towel around the wooden spoon handle , to dry well.The water stays hot far better in flasks above 500 ml sizes.However,it's fine for a hot drink left overnight,in the morning. CON'S...Probably not hot enough for a cup of tea. The pouring nozzles are difficult to clean,& weaken the seal with use.I only use for hot water. Living in a high limescale water supply area , remove the after taste, if vinegar covers in the bottom of a well drained flask, for 3 mins +.Poured back in the bottle to reuse until too diluted..Rinsed well,to remove any vinegar & after taste of chlorine & limescale.I'm unable to tolerate limescale & chlorine so Aqua filter all drinking water,& boil to drink without ill effects . It doesn't dry properly if left overnight upside down to dry. The 1 litre + volume flasks keep water really hot for the full time,but not this one.Still useable for my purposes. I have a few of these flasks as are the best there is.Shame they are not made in the UK anymore.

Thermos is a great brand and this is another great product from them. Ideal size for me to take on hikes (fits in my rucksack side pockets) or when playing golf in the winter months. I have used it on many occassions and it has stood up to knocks and bangs, resisting damage. Multi functional as it keeps the hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold. It has never leaked. The lid is a neat sized cup.

I love my little flask. Works perfectly. Before buying anything I tend to read the one star reviews, and people complain that the stopper can't be cleaned, they obviously haven't realised it is dishwasher safe, and unscrews into two parts to allow access to the inner section.

Really impressed with this flask. I’m filling it with boiling water around 6.30am and it stays piping hot all day, so much so I have to watch when I’m rinsing it out around 12 hours later once I’m back from work!

Bought for travel (having used it previously) and fits nicely in a baby bag. Good quality slimline flak, easy to carry around and the pushbutton feature to release the water is really handy. Keeps water hot (although not for the full 24 hrs), but overall happy with the purchase, highly recommend

see above. Im very disappointed the 500ml flask is no longer available. I have bought several from Amazon in the past. Otherwise its an excellent flask

Isoleert zeer goed ondanks de kleine diameter van de thermosfles, blijkbaar zit er een sterk vacuüm tussen de wanden. Ook is de dop ment schenktuit best goed schoon te maken, dat was vroeger wel eens anders bij andere merken.

ممتاز جدا

Aguanta bien 6h con el café MUY caliente en invierno. Es simplemente lo que buscaba, un termo de calidad que no estuviese pintado por dentro y con el paso del tiempo ver como perdía color el material interior (como son todos los de precios más económicos). Una buena marca, un buen termo que durará mucho tiempo en uso. Para mí el tamaño es ideal para el café , yo lo lleno con una cafetera de 6 tazas y cabe perfecto. Merece la pena!!
