Thermos Nissan 16-Ounce Stainless-Steel Insulated Bottle

I received this thermos bottle as a gift, and let me tell you, every student/caffeine addict needs one! I was amazed at its ability to keep liquids hot; I would put my tea or coffee in at 7am, and pour a piping hot beverage at 5pm. It survived many falls, including being dropped at high bicycle velocities. I loved this bottle so much, that after losing it, I bought an identical replacement. It is a great size for me (16oz,) but fyi, amazon sells a larger one (0.79 quart) for about the same price. I bought that one for my dad to keep him from coveting mine.

I've had mine for YEARS and it's stood the test of time. It sure came in handy on a HOT summer day when my friend and I were walking around Venice Beach area for hours during morning/afternoon time. Before I left the house, I had filled the Thermos with ice cubes (as many as I could fit) and filled in whatever space was left with cold water. I also carried around a large water bottle that was kept sort of warm by the outside heat. Every time after we drank from the Thermos, I refilled it with the water bottle. The ice melted away a little at a time of course but it pretty much lasted the entire time we were out (remember, I said "hours"). It kept us refreshed and hydrated throughout the day. We were both amazed.

Unfortunately it's suffered a couple of dents due to my clumsy father who would always take each travel mug I have ever purchased. But it still works just as good as it always has. I usually get Thermos Nissan products but anything that says it's...Read more

My 10.9 year-old son asked for something for Christmas to let him bring hot chai to school with him ( yes, that's a bit odd for a 5th-grader.) I ordered this Nissan product as it's compact enough to fit into his backpack and trusted Nissan to provide an absolutely liquid-tight stopper. I was not disappointed.

Our usual morning routine now includes prepping the briefcase bottle and chai for school. I preheat the bottle with 195-degree water from an instant hot water dispenser installed in my sink, and let it sit for about five minutes. Meanwhile, the chai is heated in a microwave to a temperature slightly above what he would normally drink. Out goes the hot water and in goes the chai.

He has reported back to me the chai is still nice-and-hot until he finishes it about 2:00 in the afternoon. This is about seven hours -- a remarkably long time! Nissan provides a nice chart of temperature vs. time in the manual which shows their testing validates our...Read more
