Thermos Stainless King Cranberry Red Food Flask (470ml) 9h Hot | 14h Cold

In a word - Fantastic. (Thermos Food Flash 470ml Blue) bought direct from Amazon on Prime 1 day delivery. What can I say, I mean, just read the other reviews for more detail, I dont write reviews often but I just HAD to chime in and confirm this was indeed a good... GREAT buy. I'll try to be brief. I've used it for 3 days so far. The flask keeps the food hot, simple. And the metal spoon is great. It folds away neatle and is STRONG too. None of this plastic spoon rubbish. And it looks good on the desk too (The blue one is the one I have). Just to give a better idea than, its great, its hot. Heres some timings. Day 1 8am - Add hot water as per instruction to pre-heat. Removed after 10 minutes and took to hotel breakfast restaurant. 8.30am - Hotel Microwaved my diet food soup and put into flask. Off to work. Approx 1pm - Opened the flask. The food was hot!!! Great! Day 2 Ddint use it in the day, but thought I would be inventive. Im in a hotel, limited and bought some of those typical hot-dogs-in-a-tin (mine were in plastic wrapping but same thing). I WAS going to have them cold. BUT, then I saw the Thermos flask on the desk. *Lightbulb moment* Broke the hotdogs in half, threw them into the flask, boiled some water, and put the lid on. Watched some TV, about 10 minutes later, opened the flask, got the foldable spoon out, and fished out the hotdogs. They were piping hot!!! Fantastic. Boil-your-own-food-in-a-flask at the hotel moment. Normally the hot water into a mug wouldnt stay hot enough to properly heat the hotdogs, but this worked great! So needless to say, im even happier now! Maybe this will even work for instant noodles. Day 3 This time I was too rushed to pre-heat the flask, and I went straight down to breakfast. 8.30am - Hotel microwaved my diet food soup and put into flask. Off to work. Approx 2pm (So an hour later than the pre-heated day 1) Opened the flask. The soup was hot!! Like hot as in had to sip it a little hot. Not warm, hot! If I was going to be picky, I wouldnt say steaming hot, but none-the-less. But what do you expect, it was actually microwaved food, so I didnt think that would stay as hot as actual cooked or boiled food. And I forgot to pre-heat the flask. But this STILL exceeded my expectations. Any questions, or anything you want me to try with the Thermos (within reason) leave a comment, and I'll see how I can help.

Compact, nice finish although I’m a bit cautious with it as I’m not convinced the paint won’t deteriorate. Functions well, keeping food warm. I bought two. This one and another well known brand. They are much of a muchness. Both are good flasks. This one (as mentioned before) has a different quality finish. Aesthetics? Yes but I am concerned that it won’t stay the course.

Wide neck, handy for soup and clever addition of spoon in inner lid. Kept Ice cubes perfectly for 12 hours, and it is really hot!

I purchased this so I could have hot soup or curry, stew etc, for lunch. It is perfect for this purpose, it's just a matter of working out the quantity of food required to fill the flask. It takes a decent amount of food for my portion sizes. I heat the flask and lid with boiling water for 15 minutes before filling and I fill to the top. I have had great results and my meals are still lovely and hot at lunch time. Not sure about exact timings but it varies anyway. I use recipes which produce wet food in order to get the maximum heat retention. If I use carbs I just mix them through the curry, stew, soup. The spoon is great. Its a great piece of kit and I haven't had any leaks. I am very happy that I spent the extra money, this is still a quality brand. I expect this thermos to last for years and I definitely recommend.

Why didn't I buy this sooner! I hate work canteen/microwaves so unless I have a sandwich or similar I don't eat full meals. Well this is brilliant. I have greek yogurt topped with frozen berries and seeds etc and it is just about perfect after 5 hours sitting in the car ( warm day too!) I have tested this for the last few months. Also, soup. I bring to boil put in in this and bring to work. Again leave it the car and after 5 hours it is still very hot. I had homemade berry crumble today with yogurt and it was still cool ( only had it in the fridge an hour after cooking it). I think this is the best purchase I have made . Perhaps the heat/cool won't last a long time but I am prepared to replace it if so. Usually I just handwash so unsure if using dishwasher.

Really good! Keeps food warm for hours, even after being in the fridge for hours. Can keep a lot of food, and the spoon and lid can also be used a a bowl. Really good would totally recommend buying

Love the colour, love the size and shape ... what a beauty! After i've stopped gazing at it, i did test it with coffee and realised that becuaes that has milk it won't keep hot for so long as soup or hot water for example. Over the next couple of weeks i'm going to test it with various foods / drinks that i want and get a feel of timings, but overall I'm thrilled with this especially as locally there have been quite a few power cuts and it's taking a little while for things to be fixed. In the meantime having a drink or flask of soup at the ready, if there is a blip i know i've got a hot drink during that time. Alsoi haven't used it yet, but there's a cute folding spoon that i'm sure will be useful for any hot meals i have. I like the suitably wide neck for filling, especially for meals, and easy for cleaning.

I absolutely LOVE the thermos brand as I really rate how long they retain heat. I have tried countless non-branded food flasks (esp ones designed for babies/children) and they’ve always been rubbish, food would be stone-cold only 2 hours later. I’ve thrown away so many, so decided to risk buying a thermos food flask even though I wasn’t keen on the price. But once I got it, I wish I had bought it sooner! I’ve definitely saved money using these flasks as it stops me and my husband from buying lunch out. I have 3 food flasks now, 2x 470ml flask (this purchase) and 1x 710ml flask. TIPS: I always fill the flask with boiling water and put the lid on for a few minutes whilst I heat up the food. Once food is ready to go in, I tip out the boiling water and fill immediately with food. I also always dice and mix the dish before putting it in, I’ve tried layering before (I.e: meat on top of mash Potatoes) and it’s just a pain. Always dice the meat and mix with the carb. Looks awful but tastes better. I use the 470ml REGULARLY, I send my husband to work with a food flask everyday as he works outdoors and really appreciates a hot lunch in the winter. He leaves the house in between 6.30-7.30am and eats lunch around 1pm and his food is always hot. Not hot enough to blow, but hotter than “warm”. He declares it perfect eating temperature, and has to leave the lid off to let the food cool if he eats lunch before 1pm. He normally has a pasta dish of some sort, which I layer with mozzarella/cheddar cheese straight from the fridge - this is melted and stringy by the time he eats it. No, I’m not an oppressed wife. Just a feeder. I also use this food flask for my 3 year old daughter as the selection at most softplays, suck ass. I also despise buying her a lunch for her to refuse it so I find the flask is an excellent alternative, I can fill it with food I know she’ll eat, it is (usually) healthier, and it’s cheaper! (Also if she doesn’t eat right away she can eat later and it’s still warm). We normally have leftovers (rice, noodles or pasta dishes). I tend to make her lunch 2-3 hours before she eats it, and it’s always too hot to serve straight from the flask. I once made her a pasta dish for lunch around 10am, but the softplay was dead quiet and I felt awkward next to a massive “only you only eat food purchased from [softplayname]”; unfortunately, my daughter goes to nursery with the softplay owner. So, I didn’t take out the flask there, but I was still out by 5pm (daughters dinner time) and decided to see how the pasta was and it was still warm! Warm enough for both of us to eat but I didn’t have to blow on the fork or anything. Cons: 1: With any metal food flask, getting the odour out is always a pain. To combat this I use 1x tsp of bicarbonate and pour in white vinegar until it bubbles up and fills the whole flask. Once this calms down I fill it up with boiling hot water and leave for a few hours or overnight, then empty and clean as normal. Bit of a faff but it works. I have put mine in the dishwasher and the flask is perfectly fine but it does pick up a soapy odour which also annoys me so I hand wash it. 2: THE SPOON! If you only plan on eating soup then this won’t be an issue for you, but I never use my flask for soup, I wish it came with a spork! I always have to bring a fork with me which is a pain if I forget it, and putting dirty and used forks back in my bag is not ideal. Plus husband keeps leaving forks in his van. Annoying.

Es ist die zweite Thermos King Dose, die ich gekauft habe. Die sind stabil und langlebig, selbst wenn sie auf den Boden fallen. Wenn das Essen richtig heiß eingefüllt würd, halt es mehrere Stunden heiß, es hängt allerdings auch davon ab, wie flüssig die Speise war. Je flüssiger, desto länger hält es heiß. Was auch super funktioniert, ist das Kalthalten von Eiswürfeln für den Transport, wenn man im Sommer draußen kalte Getränke mixen will oder eben nicht ständig in die Küche rennen. Da schmilzt ebenfalls stundenlang nichts. Die Dosen halten auch nach Jahren des Gebrauchs dicht. Also für sie neue Dose kann ich das natürlich nicht nicht sagen, aber die erste, baugleiche Dose ist nun mindestens acht Jahre alt und ständig im Gebrauch und funktioniert einwandfrei, obwohl inzwischen mal der Boden abgegangen ist. 0,5 p könnte für manche für Mittagessen vielleicht zu klein sein aber es gibt sie ja auch in größer. Die Öffnung könnte etwas größer sein, aber ist auch okay.

Le produit est vraiment de qualité. Pour ma part il est facile de passer sa main pour le nettoyer jusqu'au fond. Les produits reste bien au chaud et pendant longtemps. Et le fait d'avoir la cuillère intégré c'est vraiment pratique. Je ne regrette pas du tout cet achat qui va me suivre une bonne partie de ma vie

usual Thermos great quality.

Perfect, keeps the soups very hot for hours, only liquid things keep them hot, no solid. I dropped another Thermo same brand when I was washing it and stop working probably got a leak so treat it with care.

Thermos met deukje opgestuurd, niet netjes.
