Slightly Different Use, June 18, 2002
This review is from: Thermos Nissan 1-Pint Bottle with Pop-Up Straw (Kitchen)
It doesn't do what I wanted. It does something else even better: Didn't know about the progress made in recent years at keeping cold, cold and hot, hot. Now I'm totally converted to thermal everything since I purchased a carafe to use as a tea pot and a thermal travel mug for drinking that tea. All day, I have a fresh cuppa, like the first cup in the morning. I decided to add a piece to the set -- something to keep the milk cold on the counter. I selected the Nissan 1-pint bottle with straw. As it turned out, this isn't suitable for use with dairy products (or carbonated drinks). But on the day the package arrived from Amazon, I was laid flat with a back problem. This bottle arrived just in time. It's comfortable to hold, doesn't release condensation onto the tabletop, and it's easy to sip while supine without spilling a drop. I certainly couldn't do that from a regular cup or even a sports-pak plastic bottle without lifting my head which, at the time, wasn't an option. Just thought I'd mention it.

Best water bottle I've found, January 7, 2002
This review is from: Thermos Nissan 1-Pint Bottle with Pop-Up Straw (Kitchen)
Highly recommended. I've been searching for the past few years for an insulated bottle to keep water cold in the car. One problem many insulated bottles share is significant condensation on the outside (depending upon the humidity). I found a plastic bicycle bottle that did a pretty good job and didn't have condensation, but then I got this Nissan Stainless Thermos for Christmas, and it's clearly superior. It hasn't gotten any condensation so far, and it cools so well that I have had to significantly decrease the amount of ice I put in it because even after hours there is still ice inside. In fact, the only problem I've had -- and it's a good problem -- is that I usually can't get the remaining ice out without running warm water on it because the cubes have fused together and are wider than the neck of the Thermos.

Coolest bottle ever!, January 29, 2003
This review is from: Thermos Nissan 1-Pint Bottle with Pop-Up Straw (Kitchen)
As a college student, I am always going from one place to another with my back pack, and carrying water bottles has made a mess and the water didn't stay cool for long. This bottle is awesome because I can carry my drink in the early morning and still drink it cold early at night because the ice cubes I placed in it have yet to melt. I placed the ice cubes in it this morning at 9:30 am. The cubes are still intact and it's 5:50 right now. I drank the drink, but the cubes are still in there and aren't even melted! The outside container does not change temperature, so it stays comfortable to the touch. My car loves it, too, because it doesn't drip or form condensation. And when it rolls over, it rolls over. No drips, no mess. I wish I had this a long time ago, seriously!
