Thermos King S/Steel Vacuum Insulated Flask - 2.0L Midnt Blu

Product Information

This is a high-quality two litre flask which is capable of serving drinks for the whole family – great to bring along for day trips in the car or campervan. The flask is wide enough to be used as an insulated lunchbox, too, but you would need to bring your own spoon.

The flask itself has a press-button top, meaning you press it in to pour your drink and then press it again to lock it. If you want to slip in into a pocket or take it in backpack, you'll want to pay attention to the shape.It’s also non-magnetic, which may disappoint if you would hoped to adorn your Thermos with fridge magnets. The 100% stainless steel construction of today’s flasks means there’s no risk of inner walls shattering when dropped. Whether it’s a chunky “food flask”, sleek “vacuum bottle” or something in between, the job of a flask is to keep food and drink hot or cold without leaking, all day long. Some of our partners may process your data as a part of their legitimate business interest without asking for consent.

However, the efficiency of this insulated flask and its brushed stainless steel styling makes it one of our favourites. You might think that the easiest way to get your hot drink fix is to carry a gas stove and camping kettle up to the summit in your rucksack. In this article we have reviewed a range of flasks that we have been impressed by and are also quite popular in the market (for good reason). The lid of the Smardy is 100% leakproof and non-toxic and can act as a small cup, but isn’t the biggest on offer in this roundup.

Make sure the lid screws in securely and tight enough not to come loose on a hike, but equally not be difficult to open when you need it – a tricky set of requirements! The Milu comes complete with a carry case and a folding stainless steel spoon to eat your food with which we thought was a useful inclusion. However, it doesn’t insulate for as long as the Stanley Master, and it’s a bit drippy when pouring from the spout, at least when it’s full. We tested flasks that could hold enough for several people (or someone wanting several cups during the day), as well as some that were designed to serve one.

That’s why liquids in the flask remain hot or cold for longer than they would in a standard plastic bottle. While the temperature will drop a tad when ice begins to melt, we found that iceless liquids were the same temperature 28 hours later as they were when first added. The GSI employs a thin but reliable stainless steel wall that reduces the weight and also increases the internal space of the bottle. The Stanley 18-8 is one of our favourite thermos flasks as it can be used effectively at your office site, during travel or even in your kitchen overnight so your drink is piping hot for the next day morning. The GSI MicroLite 1000 Twist Water Bottle is a vacuum insulated stainless steel flask that has a one litre capacity but impressively small size and density.Hydro Flask are a fashionable US company who have made reusable flasks and water bottles immensely cool over on the West Coast of America. Is it for home use (some people take a flask to their home office in the garden), or carrying on a walk for rest and recuperation? Thermos should just rename their 1 litre ‘Light and Compact’ vacuum flask as “The Daddy” because it effortlessly delivers everything you would expect from the company who developed the vacuum flask as we know it today from Sir James Dewar’s original prototype in 1904. This is one of those brand names that have become descriptive of the product itself – a bit like Hoover being synonymous with ‘vacuum cleaner’. Using a flask is actually also a very responsible thing to do in terms of recycling – apparently 99.
