Stanley ain't like the "Old Days".........,

I've got several older 1-quart bottles that work great; however, I am VERY disappointed with the new 2 quart bottle that I just purchased. I have pre-filled with boiling water and the thing still won't keep coffee hot more than 3 hours, even in moderate temperatures. It is literally luke-warm in 3 hours! So, you may ask, what about that "famous" Stanley Lifetime Guarantee? Good luck.....they won't even return my E-mails. I don't know what happened to this once great company, but I will never buy another Stanley Thermos (except maybe an older one). I haven't looked into it, but I would suspect that their products are no longer "American Made" if you know what I mean. Anyone want to buy a cheap thermos? Mine will be on E-bay......I'm buying a Nissan Vacuum Bottle.

Cheap Imitation of a once great Thermos,

Ok, I did not get the 2 QT Thermos, but a 1.4 QT Thermos. It was a warranty replacement. It is a lighter version of the USA made type of years past. Now Stanley-Alladin are putting their "Since 1913" seal of approval on these thermos that are Made in China. Sad. Very Sad. I can actually feel the difference in its' weight and metal composition. I am curious to see these thermos in the local stores. Are they Made in China also? I'll use this one out of necessity.

Not boiling hot but just hot.,

I own both the Thermos Nissan 61 oz silver/black one and this Stanley brushed classic 2 qt. Fill them both with boiling hot water to the top and close for overnight. The next morning, the Stanley will be hot but barely enough to make a batch of tea which you can begin to sip immediately. The Nissan will literally burn your lips hot. ( Also have the Rugged 1 qt Stanley bottle but due to its smaller volume, it loses heat even faster ) I think the major problem is the head/neck which you can feel the heat with the bottle closed. For about the ten dollar difference, go for the Nissan over the Stanley.
