Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Virtually unbreakable, this lightweight, vacuum-insulated thermos travels to work or recreation easily, and for hours afterward, coffee, tea, or broth will still be hot. Or lemonade, iced tea, or a sports drink will still be chilled. Tapered toward the top and slim enough (11 inches high, 3 inches in diameter at bottom) to safely pour with one hand, it slips into a briefcase or backpack. Pouring is a snap--twist off the cup, which holds 6 ounces of liquid, twist the stopper a few turns and pour through a no-drip slot (there's one for righthanders, another for lefthanders) without removing the stopper. Fine threading ensures the stopper seals tightly, while the exterior has a handsome satin finish. The smooth interior cleans with sponge or cloth, and preheating or prechilling with hot or cold water is recommended. --Fred Brack

Customer Reviews
I bought one of these in autumn 2002 so that I could bring my own fresh-brewed coffee to work, in order to try to break my $3.50 per day grande-skim-latte habit. At first my wife was dubious, but my plan has worked: this little gem has paid for itself four or five times over.
(1) Very convenient size. It fits well inside my briefcase, which is not especially capacious inside. It will probably fit in most similar cases except, of course, for those "portfolio" style bags with only an inch or so of room for papers.
(2) Keeps coffee hot all day. I make a pot of coffee in the morning at 7 or 8 am, then get to my office and start sipping at around 9 am. The coffee remains hot and enjoyable as late as 6 or 7 at night. (and probably even later than that...I simply have never had cause to find out because I don't like to keep drinking caffeine that late on a workday) Following directions to "preheat" the interior with hot water prior to use is not really necessary, but I've found that it gives the coffee a little bit of extra thermal "kick" when I do it.
(3) Easy to clean. I have found its stainless steel finish and poly cap/cup are very easy to take care of. Most of the time, simply rinsing it under hot water is enough. A few times I've used a kitchen sponge for a few seconds to clean the cap and threads, but that is seldom really needed.
Summary: this thermos has done exactly what I needed it to do, it's easy to take care of, and it will probably pay for itself if you use it in lieu of making trips to the corner coffeeshop. There are other bottles out there that might be better for food/soup, or might keep its contents hotter if you plan to leave the bottle for days at a time before drinking its contents. But for ordinary use like I described above, this thing is great ; I'm glad I bought it.
Nissan Gets It Right
The travel thermos keeps liquids hotter than any similar container I've owned. What's going on here with this thermos that has drawn over 40 (mostly rave) reviews? How does hot stay hot, and cold stay... cold?
There's a solid, double steel wall, but it's light and portable.
A tightly fitting screw-on cap (which doubles as an almost six- ounce container)
A reduced--but still 26 ounce--volume (compared to the big old lugs we're used to) helps maintain temperature.
This is the real deal. Six hours later and coffee is still hot, a day later and it's at least warmer than room temperature.
Preheat and Screw it Tight. No, this is not a song by Archie Bell and the Drells. Just a couple of suggestions to get the most out of your thermos.
Preheat the thermos by filling it with hot water before filling it with a hot drink; fo the opposite for cold. This helps the contianer do its job, and takes just a few seconds. However, it is not necessary to ensure a hot (or cold--let's not forget the cold!) drink
Please be sure to tighten the lid all the way. I've ruined a few books with a container that I mistakenly thought was sealed. My bad-it's easy to close, just don't rush it.
It's Practical, Too.
The light, smaller size makes this ideal for backpacking when you hike or bicycle. Moreover, the reduced weight and tapered design make this easy to hold, even without the handle on the more traditional but heavier Nissan thermos.
Problems.
None. I've had no problems with odor, cleaning, or anything with this. An ideal gift item, as reliable and appreciated as your favorite drink.
