Extremely happy with this bottle. I've been using it during summer and the wide mouth allows for ice cubes to fit in nicely. Although without ice my drink was still very cold 6 hours later!! The little push button you press to open spout is easily manageable. No leakage. Over all, great item. Wish I had bought larger size.
Rating: - Remarkably Good!
This vacuum bottle is surprisingly lightweight, very compact and as other reviews have said, keeps liquids warm for many hours (I haven't tried cold liquids in it yet, but if it keeps heat in, I'm confident that it'll keep heat out.) It fits nicely into my nylon briefcase and so far (about 2 months), I've had no problem with the seal. I carry coffee to work in it each morning and at lunchtime the coffee is still hot enough to burn my tongue. I gave this product 5 stars because I have absolutely no complaint and I really like it.
Rating: - Teflon lining unecessary and possibly toxic
Although this manufacturer has a reputation for vacuum bottles' retaining their temperatures for a long time, I returned this bottle when I realized the interior was completely lined with Teflon! Why?? Teflon is not a clean substance, and is a carcinogen at high temperatures. For sustained very hot temperatures, as in storing hot coffee, there is no advantage for the consumer. As far as cleaning, Teflon would stain more than a stainless steel interior, and would probably affect the taste of the coffee. Hopefully, this manufacturer's major mistake will be rectified.
Rating: - Works well, worthwhile investment
I'm very satisfied. It keeps liquids warm to hot -- even when there is just a small amount of liquid left inside that small amount is kept pretty hot. It's easy to clean and I've been using it more than I expected.
If you like "being green" buy this product and spare the environment all those discarded paper or styrofoam cups you would have gotten at the local deli, Starbucks, etc. Thermos will pay for itself in about a month of daily use by saving money on coffee or tea. Plus the tea I make is much better quality than what's commonly sold to go.
Rating: - Excellent thermos.
GREAT design. The lid mechanism is brilliant, and unlike the IKEA thermos I had previous to this, there is no leaking at all. I don't leave my coffee in there all day, so I can't speak to how long liquids stay hot. The compact size still manages to hold almost 4 cups of coffee and the thermos is very light. Well worth the money.
