Stanley Classic Legendary Vacuum Bottle 1.5 qt | Wide Mouth with Leakproof Cup Lid | Keep Drinks Hot or Cold | Packable for Travel | Insulated Stainless Steel Thermos | BPA-Free | Matte Black

I am a big fan of the double wall, vacuum insulated flasks ( like Hydroflask and the copycats) but regardless of their claims they are not all as efficient at maintaining the temperature as advertised.The Stanley bottles however have exceeded my expectations and are the only I have found that actually keeps my coffee or tea consistently HOT for an entire day and even overnight!!I take a big flask of hot tea or coffee with me on cold days when I have a booth outside for my business at an outdoor market. I prep the bottle by pouring some boiling water into it and giving it a few shakes ( lid on!) then letting it sit for a minute, pour it out and fill it with with a very hot beverage around 7am and it is still just as hot when I get home 11 hours later!I bought several for gifts this Christmas, and would recommend the Stanley to anyone looking for a good quality product that will actually lives up to your expectations.It is worth every penny and should last for years.The only thing I would change is the design of the handle. It is a bit awkward and can be a little tricky getting it to lay flat, but I can easily live with it.Bottom line: If you’re looking for a great insulated flask that actually keeps hot drinks Hot and cold drinks icy cold look no further!It’s the perfect size, reasonably priced and it does the job amazingly well!

This thing is just all around awesome. My main point in purchasing was for winter hiking trips but this will also get used for camping trips and any other occasion where I need a steady supply of coffee. It is built with the quality you'd expect from Stanley, it keeps your coffee hot until it is gone, seals up great, and looks cool. Not that the last part matters but always a bonus.

Great size and amazing quality. Keeps my coffee hot all day!

The OG champ of tough and dependable drink storage lives up to its reputation. I use this classic to store everything from hot chocolate to the delicious nectar known as Dr. Pepper. It keeps hot things hot and cold things cold and looks so pretty, whether adorned with stickers or not.

This bottle is wonderful! It is well made and easy to use. It keeps coffee hot all day. I'd recommend it to anyone who needs hot coffee long after it's brewed.My normal habit has been to brew a pot of coffee in the morning and drink it throughout the morning and into the afternoon (on good days). The alternative was to brew a Keurig pod for every cup, and a pot full is definitely more cost effective than that (not to mention other factors). I have a thermal carafe coffee pot that originally worked well, but I found that the coffee was no longer staying hot after first brewing. I was ready to replace the whole thing as I couldn't find a different carafe for the brewer. Then I thought about my Mom - she always had a thermos she poured coffee in to drink throughout the day. Of course, I gave that one way when we cleaned out her house, so I found this one. It's even in my favorite color! I have been enjoying my coffee nice and just-brewed hot every day since it arrived.

Not a single complaint. It kept my hit water HOT for 4 hours. The pour is clean. All the parts are easy to clean. The handle is sturdy. The material is top notch. It’s giving heirloom! lol

I've been looking for the best thermal bottle over the past month for my morning coffees and teas, and have tried and tested a dozen thermal bottles from different brands including Stanley, Thermos, Zojirushi, as well as more inexpensive brands like Walmart's Ozark trail.The most important qualities I look for are: (1) how well and how long the bottle keeps drinks hot, and (2) how well built the bottle is (i.e., does it appear durable and long lasting).The classic series Stanley bottles in general are top notch in both categories, with the larger capacity ones offering better heat retention (assuming you fill them up). This 2.5 quart one in particular is probably the favorite one I tried, because it's big enough to hold around 12 cups of coffee (about how much I drink in a day), and keeps the coffee burning hot even 8-10 hours later. (The advertising claims to keep drinks hot for 48 hours but I don't really believe that, unless maybe you just keep the lid closed and never once open it for 48 hours). The handle is also extremely convenient and comfortable compared to the smaller Stanley bottles like the 1/2 qt varieties. The only downside is it's significantly more expensive--about twice the cost of a 1 qt bottle.

Keeps temperature really well. Water stays hot after 24 hours (not piping hot, but still hot). I keep it filled with hot water by my bedside so I can drink hot water when I wake up. It does have a little bit of plastic smell at first and I would recommend cleaning the interior with hot soap water before using. You will need a long brush for that. Very happy with this purchase.
