Amazon.com Review: This thermal carafe from Zojirushi keeps beverages hot without the fuss of electric cords, and it suits your brunch table better than a thermos. Designed to provide superior heat retention for prebrewed coffee or tea, the carafe also accommodates filter cones for direct brewing. The fully removable stopper features an open/shut indicator mark, while the tapered spout minimizes dripping. The two-tone silver color scheme is a fine complement to any table--the body is a subtle metallic silver, while the top, base, handle, and stopper are a complementary dove gray. The carafe has a 1-liter capacity, making it ideal for the dining room or the office. --Emily Bedard

I bought this from a Chinese grocery store for only $9.99. This brand is popular but not the best. The heat keeps for hours. For example, the water is boiled hot and poured in now, it will be warm the next day at the same time. I like to drink hot water in the morning. I boil water at night and put the thermal next to my bed. The next morning the water is still hot that can burn my tongue. But it won't keep the water HOT for ALL DAY. For something $9.99, i will say it is a good-buy.
Rating: - a great value in a carafe
When my workplace removed hot water machines from our kitchenettes, I was looking for a way to keep hot water handy for tea, hot cereal and instant soups. Since we are not allowed appliances at our work stations, I needed a thermos or carafe.
This one was a great price, and keeps the contents hot enough for making tea from morning until late afternoon. It is also short enough to fit under the hot water tap of our cafeteria's coffee machines. It holds enough water to make 3-4 generous mugs of soup or beverages.
I do not remove the carafe lid to pour hot water, I just twist the lid halfway ... Read More
Rating: - Works but I've seen better
I've had mine for 3 months now, bought from Amazon. For mine, the temperature holds pretty well. I've used it for cold and hot liquids, and when it is kept full will keep the liquid hot or cold for about a day or so. Not as good as my tiger but still way better than other generic brands I've seen.
Three bad things though... part of the metal edge that wraps the cylinder is starting to rust ever so slightly and I had put in this horrid smelling tea one time and now the smell has seemed to stuck around after countless cleanings, also the spout is quite small so it takes a while to fill ...

Rating: - Simply Bad
This is horrible at keeping coffee hot. It gets cold quick.
Buy another brand. I bought this model and a larger Zojirushi 1.9 liter stainless steel model at the same time. They both are bad and leak heat vapor out like a hissing snake with no off switch. The 1.9 ltr one also leaks fluid out even before you press the open button. Also it is the worst stainless steel I have ever seen. It stains instantly and for ever. I had another Zhjirushi for more than a decade and it was fantastic. But something has happened over the last 10 years, their quality has really gotten bad.
