Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Thermos Element 5 16-Ounce Leak-Proof Food Jar
Customer Review: Keeps soup hot for 6 hours
Summary: 4 Stars
This has been the best Thermos product I've ever been lucky enough to use. To keep my daughter's soup hot from 6am (when I pack her lunch) until noon when she eats it. I simply boil some water and put it into the Thermos before sealing it up and leaving it for about 15 minutes. At the end of that time I poor out the water (the outside of the container is quite warm to the touch) and fill the container with hot soup. This preheating is necessary to get the most out of this product.
While the Thermos is also good for keeping things cold, I've tried the pre-freeze (overnight in the freezer) idea and not been able to keep things frozen. Not really designed for that purpose I guess, but it was worth a try!
Reasons I give it 4 and not 5 stars: I think this is a good product for keeping hot things hot, as long as you pre-heat first, but not as good at keeping things really cold. I wish the mouth to the container was bigger, but then again it might not fit as easily into a soft-sided lunchbox if it was bigger. The container also has been known to leak, but that may be my fault for not seating the top properly when I tighten it. I seal it in a large Ziploc bag when I put it in a bag lunch to avoid mishaps. This container could be difficult for small hands to get opened without help, and/or tighten properly.
At 16 ounces this jar holds a lot of food. The stainless steel design is pleasing to the eye, easy to wash and it doesn't retain odors. Overall, despite a few issues, I really like this product and would recommend it.
