Product Description

Amazon.com Review
Virtually unbreakable, this vacuum-insulated food thermos travels easily to work or the beach. On arrival, and for hours afterward, stew or soup will still be hot, or pasta salad or berries will still be chilled. It transports baby food, too. Lightweight and compact (3-1/2 inches in diameter by 5 inches high), it slips into a briefcase, handbag, or backpack. It has a handsome satin-finish exterior and tough, nonslip, black plastic top and bottom, and fine threading ensures the twist top seals tightly. A full-diameter mouth provides handy access to food, and the smooth interior cleans with sponge or cloth. Preheating or prechilling with hot or cold water is recommended. --Fred Brack

5.0 out of 5 stars Add boiling water for 5 minutes to hold heat!, March 20, 2003

By A Customer

The ONLY time I haven't had the heat held by this thermos is when I do not preheat it with water as suggested by the maker. I own three of these. I started with one, then found it to be so superior to other types that I bought two more. They are worth every penny. They will hold the heat of the food better than any thermos I've tried, BUT ONLY IF YOU FIRST PREHEAT IT WITH BOILING WATER AND CAP IT FOR AT LEAST 5 MINUTES! This will warm the thermos and allow it to maintain the temperature of the hot food for several hours. I pour out the water just before I fill the thermos. It can get so hot, in fact, that if I pack a lunch at 7 am using this method soup can be too hot to eat. I usually fill it with soup, but I've also tried left over Chinese food and spaghetti. It stays hotter with soup, and very warm with the other dryer foods.

This is a durable stainless steel thermos - no glass. It is expensive, but it works so much better than other styles. It is a convenient size. The lid seal comes off for convenient cleaning. The wide mouth is easy for spoon navigation.

If you do not preheat it with boiling water (I microwave the water in a cup) then it holds heat better than any plastic one, but it will not stay as hot. Remember, the plastic ones don't either. I've tried preheating plastic thermos' and they don't seem to ever hold the heat till noon no matter what.

5.0 out of 5 stars Keep it Hot !, August 16, 2000

By A Customer

This is a great product which keeps the hot food hot and the cold food cold. My daughter uses hers almost everyday and never complains that her food is not right. She, in fact, is the one who wanted the Nissan because the other kids who had them liked them so much.

5.0 out of 5 stars Prewarm the jar, March 24, 2003

By	"3xthecharm" - See all my reviews

I have used 2 of these containers for the last year, and they have worked well. Things are kept plenty hot for atlesast 4hrs..(This is when my kids have lunch.) I am not sure if the poor reviews of this product reflect the users not following directions given in the owner's manual. You must heat the container before use by filling it with hot water. I think this is true for most containers of this type.
