Luckily, since the thermos has such a wide mouth, cleaning it by hand isn’t so bad. This is because the thermos is comprised of multiple pieces (a lid, spoon, gasket, and jar) which need to be separated and because hot water and harsh detergents can damage the container’s exterior. While Thermos’ product listing says it’s safe to wash the Stainless King on the top rack of a dishwasher, the company does say handwashing is preferred.
Our ice water still had ice cubes floating in it more than 14 hours later, again meeting the promised time for keeping liquids cool. After our test, we were confident that the container would work well for soups and other foods that are even hotter to begin with.Īs we expected, the insulative properties of the thermos worked superbly with cold liquids as well. Finally, the temperature began to fall around 9 hours in-which was exactly what the brand had promised. Without fail, we found our food nice and warm each time we went in for a taste. Every hour on the hour, we checked in to take a bite and see if the temperature had decreased.

First, we filled the thermos with freshly made mac and cheese. The temperature began to fall around 9 hours in-which was exactly what the brand had promised. The rugged stainless steel container can handle being bumped around in the backseat of a car or jostled about in a backpack during a subway commute. The Stainless King Food Jar is exceptionally durable. While they’re made mostly for children, they are much easier to twist off-especially if you have wet hands. We’ve tried a few other Thermos-branded containers which are outfitted with ergonomic rubber-gripped lids and we much prefer those. While it’s sleek and attractive, it’s also prone to smudges and fingerprints. The one design element we would change is the stainless steel lid. Plus, the container's 3.7 x 3.7 x 5.5-inch build isn’t too cumbersome if you’re throwing it in a purse or backpack. The jar’s 16-ounce capacity is ideal for lunch-sized servings of whatever it is you like to eat, be it piping-hot spaghetti and meatballs or a refreshing gazpacho. We love these extra touches as they’re not only easier to use than standard single-use plastic spoons and bowls, but they’re also significantly more eco-friendly. The 16-ounce heavy-duty container is more than just an insulated jar-it also comes with a fold-out stainless steel spoon and its lid doubles as a bowl for added functionality. Of the various insulated thermoses we’ve tested, the Stainless King is our clear-cut favorite. The mechanism holding the foldable spoon in place was faulty, and the spoon clattered to the ground each time I removed the lid.The Spruce Eats / Suzie Dundas Design: Some smart design elements
