Thermos Light and Compact Flask, Midnight Blue, 1L

I have this for several months and used it 3 orc4 times. I am more than happy with the price, it keeps the water extremely hot. It’s the perfect size for a decent drink for two orcas I do 3 smaller drinks.

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. :-)

Excellent flask for my baby's formula feeds during the day and night. I generally change the water every 12 hours - to ensure optimum temp of at least 70 degrees which is required for making formula milk. However, even at the 12 hours the water is still steaming hot! Even after opening and closing a few times. Deffo recommend for this purpose. Only downside - it is very chunky! But the larger the flask the longer it retains heat so it is worth the trade off. Plus it fits inside a reasonably sized baby bag with more than enough space for other things.

This flask does keep things hot for relatively 24 hours which I do like the easy pour system on it even though you have to flip the lid down on it to close it which it does leak a little bit but only when you shake it also if you look on the lid of it there is a thumb and finger insert to tighten it up by twisting it clockwise apart from that a good flask. Which i didn't like that the plastic bag it came in isn't recyclable as imagine thermos sold 10 million of them or even more maybe worldwide and that's not including all of the other flasks on that they sell too is 10 million or more to be in the oceans or on landfill too I'm disappointed in you thermos.🌡️♨️

Fantastic flask brilliant price and truly cheap day coffee hot for long long time

Bought this in case of power cut but haven't used it as yet. Looks good and solid, should do what it says.

I use this flask everyday to take coffe to work as coffee is overpriced in London. I love it so far but its early days. Arrived quickly but Amazon driver put a cardboard delivery package in my cardboard recycle bin with the rest of the rubbish and it rained on the package. Thanks A!The new design press button top to pour liquid from seems a little, less durable than others ive had in the past. Time will tell. It boast it keeps drinks hot or cold for 24hrs. Well, Yes & No.Tested only for hot drinks, after 3hrs still nice & hot, after 8hrs still nice and hot, after 12hrs the temp starts dropping and by 24 hrs its barley luke warm. But to be fair, its to be expected and if you have`nt drunk it by 12 hrs your too slow . . .Great flask, will try it with cold iced coffee and see results.

Great thanks
