Product Description

Color: Midnight Blue

The Thermos brand is well known as the quality and performance leader in insulated food and beverage products. The Stainless King series creates a new chapter in Thermos' storied history with a modern line that blends out newest technology with a dash of the past.

Why Thermos?

An ideal choice for people on the go, the Stainless King Vacuum Insulated Beverage Bottle is built to last and loaded with features to make for a more enjoyable drinking experience. Thermos vacuum insulation technology virtually eliminates temperature change within the beverage container by creating an airless space between two stainless steel walls. The result is an insulation layer that performs better than any other. A superior insulated container you can depend on to keep your beverages hotter, colder, fresher, longer.This beverage bottle keeps beverages hot or cold for 24 hours, making it a great choice for wherever life's adventures may take you.

Features and Benefits

Constructed with double wall stainless steel, this 40 ounce beverage bottle is virtually unbreakable, yet its sleek design is both eye-catching and functional. The specially designed twist and pour stopper lets you pour without having to remove the stopper completely. A simple twist is enough to allow liquids to flow out.

This beverage bottle comes equipped with its own built-in, insulated stainless steel serving cup, so there is no need to pack an additional cup. The bottle also features a compact, fold-flat handle for easy carrying that also provides increased stability and handling when pouring.

Leak-Proof and Worry-Free

Top of the line construction and rubber gaskets keep this bottle leak-proof and because of the double wall insulation, the stainless steel body stays cool to the touch with hot beverages and condensation-free with cold beverages.

Recommended Tip for Maximum Beverage Enjoyment

In order to maximize the incredible insulation technology, it is recommended to either pre-chill or pre-heat the beverage bottle just prior to use. This can be accomplished by filling the beverage bottle with cold or hot tap water, attaching the lid and letting it rest for a few minutes. Before you are ready to use, simply empty the water and fill with your favorite beverage. Attaching the lid will further increase the thermal efficiency.

The Stainless King Vacuum Insulated Beverage Bottle is made of BPA-free materials.

5.0 out of 5 stars Test results for skeptics April 9, 2010

By Pinupgirl

Color Name:Midnight Blue|Amazon Verified Purchase

I read the reviews and am probably as skectical as anyone. When I received my Thermos - I filled it with hot water and dumped it as a preheat. Then I filled it with 200 degree water. In two hours it was 190 degrees. After four hours it was 180 degrees and after six hours, it was 170 degrees. The matching mugs - filled at the same time. After six hours they were at 160 degrees. The lids are a little more complex to take apart than some suggested, but nothing a reasonable person who can read directions should have a problem with. The seals are as leakproof as suggested. and the dark blue is just beautiful. Taken in total, the thermo and the mugs are awesome. They aren't cheap, but still are an excellent value. They made a believer out of me.

5.0 out of 5 stars fantastic! October 13, 2009

By Kit Carson

Color Name:Midnight Blue|Amazon Verified Purchase

I bring a quart of hot tea to work every day and have been a fan of Thermos bottles for 25 years. I had always used an insulated glass bottle, until I noticed that the newer bottles were more prone to breakage. I did some internet research and found the Stainless King. It is excellent at retaining heat, ensuring a very hot cup of tea throughout the workday. One weekend, when I emptied a half-filled bottle over 24 hours after filling it, the tea was still significantly hotter than hot tap water. I am looking forward to using this bottle for a LONG time. The only very minor drawback is that the metal handle does "rattle", making a metallic noise. I might consider one of the handle-less bottles for a future purchase, but I am sold on the insulated stainless steel.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poor Cap/Cup Quality April 1, 2010

By Grumpy

Color Name:Midnight Blue

I bought this Thermos in November of 2009 and after 4 months of daily use the stainless steel part of the cap has separated from the plastic part. I have taken really good care of this product, and it is quite clear that the glue used to join the two parts was just not up to the task.

A friend has an earlier model and the same thing happened to him. Granted this is from a very small sample size, but it appears as though this is a common problem with the Thermos brand insulated bottles. I would really like to hear from other customers to see if ours were isolated incidents, or if this is a common occurrence.

After a mail to the Thermos helpdesk I was told the following:

"The limited warranty only covers the stainless steel portion of the bottle. The warranty does not cover gaskets, stoppers, or cups as the parts can wear due to long periods of use, neglect, abuse or can be altered. We do have these parts available for a small fee."

I guess the reply means that even though the bottle part of the Thermos is supposed to last 5 years, they want to make a buck from their customers by having them continually buy replacements for the really poor quality accessory parts.

I agree with the other reviewers in that the product keeps coffee piping hot, but I will not recommend this product until Thermos addresses the quality issues with their cap/cup.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazingly well made thermos March 31, 2010

By KTFaye

Color Name:Midnight Blue

The insulation on this thing is great. I needed a bigger thermos for an outdoor concert to store hot chocolate. I wanted something that would hold the heat a long time as we had to travel quite a ways, three hours to the show and then 4 hours at the show. As usual, I preped the themos by boiling water, filling the thermos letting it sit a couple minutes then emptied the water out, then poured in the hot chocolate. It remained very hot through both the travel time and concert. But the truly remarkable part came later: Following the three hour ride home as we had not drunk all the chocolate, I just popped the entire thermos in the fridge as I was too tired to empty it and intended to reheat the remaining chocolate the next day. Went to work the next day, got home the next evening and got the themos out of the fridge and opened it to heat up the chocolate. I was completely amazed to see steam pour out of the thermos and discover the hot chocolate was STILL hot almost 24 hours since I had filled it and that time included 12 hours in the refrigerator. I was astonished.

I've also tried it with cold beverage and found the same excellent results. I recommend it highly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Replaced our Stanley, couldn't be happier. February 3, 2010

By Stacy A. Schneider

Color Name:Midnight Blue|Amazon Verified Purchase

I purchased this after our Stanley Thermos broke and wasn't keeping coffee hot anymore. This thing is great. Its lightweight compared to the Stanley, and my fiance loves it because it fits in his lunchbox (which is a medium-sized cooler, the type that you hit a button and the triangular top rotates to the side). He accidently left it in his cooler all night and when he woke up to make coffee the next morning, he poured it out and it was still hot! Everyone on his jobsite was asking where he got it, and now they may be getting the same one as well. We tried to find something that was made in USA but came up empty handed, even Stanleys are made in China now. I read that other people replaced their Stanley with this so I took a chance. We are very happy with it and I would suggest buying this over Stanley. We haven't had it that long yet, if for any reason it breaks or doesn't last I will post an updated review.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exactly as advertised January 7, 2010

By James E. Hill, Jr.

Color Name:Midnight Blue|Amazon Verified Purchase

I bought this thermos because I had been using a traditional travel mug with sippable lid to drink coffee at work. Even with the travel mug, coffee became cool after 15-20 minutes. I work in an ER and can only takes drinks between patients or procedures, which may be every hour or so. I needed something which kept my preferred English tea hot all day (I work 10 hour shifts and fix the tea at home an hour before arriving to the ER). I was a bit skeptical that this thermos could really keep my tea hot all day. Well, to my pleasant surprise I fixed the tea at home at 6 a.m., took it to work, drank from it during the day and at 5 p.m. it was as hot as when I fixed it at 6 a.m. The larger size allows enough liquid for all day and the thermos really keeps it hot all day. Best deal of my Christmas shopping spree!
