Customer Review: One of the best investments I have ever made
Summary: 5 Stars
This may be a small item for the claim I have used in my title but it's really true. I am one of those individuals who spends (now, used to) about $10.- a day in coffee stores for two cups of coffee and maybe a small snack with it. I have had done it for such a long time and on a regular basis, I felt guilty of wasting about $300.- a month just in coffee stores. For what? A couple cups of coffee?
I use mostly credit cards for purchases and carry only small amount of cash to use for minor things such as coffee. Money was running out so fast and I had to find a permanent solution for it. I have had a thermos many years ago that I bought from one of those big chain stores but it didn't really work, and it was damaged in a short time anyway. I decided to search to see if there was really a top quality brand out there-probably, the kind that is used for camping, etc, which could resolve my concern permanently. I didn't care how much it was going to cost me as long as it solved my problem and save me money in the long run.
Two things I considered very important prior to making my decision on the type of great thermos I wanted to buy: 1) Can it keep the coffee hot, fresh and tasty all day long(I am on the road all the time and I don't like to worry about storing milk, sugar etc in a small container; especially in hot days...yes I drink coffee in summer, too) 2) Does it have the size to store enough hot fresh coffee (minimum of 32oz); and is it convenient to carry in my back pack easily?
I am the kind of person pay attention to smallest details in things; thus I made days of research prior to buying a thermos. I just didn't want to regret my decision later on. Anyhow, I came across this product on various sites as many pointed out that Nissan thermos was probably the best thermos available out there. I drink my coffee with milk and I really was concern about it. Also, I like my coffee "just right," I can be very annoyed when it is not. I've noticed one person made a comment that adding milk while pouring into the thermos did not make the coffee taste bad after many hours.
Okay, so I decided to buy not the largest but two smaller size 16oz ones (an espresso color, and a smoke color) as you see in the picture. I didn't want to carry two everyday; but then, I thought it could have come handy when I wanted to have a hot and cold drink before leaving home for any place other than work (gym, visiting friends in a long distance, etc). Have I made the best decision on that as well! First of all, they are slim you can easily use the side pockets of your back-pack to keep them which is what I do. I can tell you that I usually make coffee early in the morning at 6:00 am. I like my coffee very hot, too. I fill the thermos with hot tap water for a few minutes first while making the coffee, and preparing my breakfast and lunch quickly or I sometimes warm the coffee for another 15-20 seconds prior to pouring into the thermos but that is really not necessary as I have realized lately it doesn't make any difference. I add milk and sugar, too. That's all. The coffee is hot, fresh and tasty for exactly 8 hours as if you just poured it from a fresh coffee pot. On the 10th hour, it is as hot as when one buys a cup of coffee from a coffee shop and adds milk into it which I find...well... not "hot enough" since as I mentioned I like my coffee at the temperature of almost burning my tongue..lol...what can I say? Moreover, I like that you can just flip the top by pressing to a simple switch(button)on the cap. It is so easy rather than removing the cap and then maybe spilling the cofee on you.
Moreover, I have noticed during my research some has mentioned that Nissan thermos can leak time to time. That was also a big concern for me. I have to say that I have experienced it, too with the pair I have after some days but I figured the problem out. As some mentioned, the cap may not be put on properly I don't know if that is true or not because I always thougth I put the cap as I always do, and it seems like I put it right. At times, it works after the second try but what I do is my simple test that seems like working. I put the cap and then turn it upside down and shake it a couple of times. If it doesn't leak, it won't leak later on.
The result after using it for about four weeks is that I have NOT spent a penny during that time, never stopped at a coffee store (Starbucks or Dunkin's Donuts) once. I prepare one or two bagels with cream cheese or peanut butter jelly sandwiches with two thermoses of coffee before leaving home in the morning. That's all. I have not spent a penny for lunch, either. I have spent about $60.- for two thermoses; in return, I have avoided spending about $300.- in just 4 weeks. Moreover, even on the weekends, it doesn't matter where I am going because I know my coffee is going to stay fresh and hot all day long, I prepare the coffee, and then, leave home. I never waste it. Even if there is left-over after 15hrs, I know it's either warm enough or I can reheat for a minute at home in the late evenings, and drink it. I hardly spend money outside. I also used to spend money after the gym work outs for a coffee and snack or protein drink which is not included to the $10 I mentioned earlier since I haven't been to the gym for a long time. Now, I can prepare cold protein drinks with skim milk as well and save even more. Moreover, I am very busy person and I don't sleep a lot thus when I get home, I stay up late and work on my projects at home. During that time, I used to prepare two pots of coffee before and waste one because after some hours, they would have the burned-taste. Now, I make one pot and pour it into both thermoses and drink throughout late evenings and night and not waste anything at all. Yes, when I am busy and up for long hours, I drink LOTS OF COFFEE. No, it doesn't make me hyper or prevents me from sleeping. When I hit the bed, I am assleep within a few minutes.
Anyhow, Nissan Thermos is AWESOME! SIMPLY AWESOME AND save lots of money. Cleaning of them? Nahhh! Not a problem really; just keep it under the running hot water and gently scrub it, it's as clean as the day you bought it including the difficult reachable places under the cap as some claim it's hard to clean....HAVE IT! SAVE LOTS of cash! And enjoy your beverages.
Peace out!
