Sports reviews of Stanley 1.1Qt Classic Vacuum Bottle

Customer Review: Return of the metal cup!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I'm updating this review, because the thermos that I reviewed previously was destroyed by United Airlines. I called Stanley customer service and they promptly sent out a free replacement, which has some nice changes. Their 2010+ thermoses are 30% lighter (I believe that they no longer have powdered charcoal between the walls), and they have brought back the stainless steel cup.

I immediately thought that a lighter design would equate to less insulation, but the new models keep liquids hot just as long as their predecessors.

Below is my old review:
I own the following Stanley thermoses: Two made in Indiana 1.1L, and one newer 1.1L Chinese thermos.

Here are my observations:
1.1L USA-made (1980, 1988): Lighter and thinner than the newer models, and do not keep water hot for nearly as long as the Chinese models. The metal cap/cup is really great though, and you can use it with the newer models. I also like the design of the pouring spout better on these older models. This thermos stays warm for a while, but not hot for even an hour (hot, as in over 175°F). It feels cheaply made compared to the newer models.

1.1L Chinese made (2006): Heavier than the old USA model. The walls on the new Chinese models are insulated with powdered charcoal, and feel solid. These keep water hot longer than any thermos I've encountered. Over the years I've own many nice vacuum bottles by Nissan, Thermos, and Stanley, and this new Stanley 1.1L retains heat far longer than any other. This is a fantastic thermos for tea drinkers, as it keeps water hot enough to brew for hours. I've owned it since 2007 and it still looks new, except for the cheap fake-chrome plastic cup/cap. It must be said that the newer models look much more modern than the old USA models.

That said, there are some drawbacks to the newer Chinese models: The design of the spout leads to spills. Also, if you store an odorous liquid like coffee in them even once, the silicon seal will be forever tainted. I made this mistake and ended up ordering a replacement seal, because I use my thermoses mainly for storing hot water for tea sessions and the coffee odor was quite strong. Citric Acid, Vinegar, Oxyclean--nothing will clean the seal. Oxyclean & citric acid do a great job of cleaning the stainless interior however. Also, the fake chrome, plastic cup/cap is really poorly made. I've replaced mine with the metal cap off an older USA-made 1.1L.
-update: The 2010+ models have brought back the stainless cup.

In summary:
Don't trust the reviews by the anti-Chinese, nostalgic crowd. Although the US models have better cups and spouts, the Chinese are in fact superior for keeping liquids hot. This meme is being repeated because no one is comparing the US & Chinese models side by side. Remember: You MUST preheat vacuum bottles. Perhaps this is why there are so many negative reviews?
