DaCool 2 Pack Food Thermo for Hot Food 16 OZ Insulated Food Jar Kids Adult Vacuum Stainless Steel Lunch Thermo Insulated Lunch Container for School Office Picnic Travel Outdoors,Black+Cyan Blue

This soup thermos has REVOLUTIONIZED my lunchtime experience. Piping hot soup out of my microwave at 6:00 am is JUST AS HOT at noon. Talk about a game-changer from boring lunches! I wish I were a better-looking dude because I would reach out to DaCool and ask to be a brand ambassador! If you're on the fence about pulling the trigger on this purchase, fear not. It'll be worth every penny you spend.

I purchased this insulated lunch box for my husband, who often works demanding 8–16 hour shifts. He absolutely loves it! This is actually the second one I’ve purchased for him because it’s been so reliable. I pack his meals in it (a good amount of food fits in there), and even after 10 hours, the food is still warm—not piping hot at that point, but definitely far better than eating a cold meal. If he had a standard shift and ate within 4–5 hours, his food would still be hot. The heat retention is impressive. I hand wash these and love that it comes with a spoon. I also like to add cute stickers to make it more personal. I did notice that our older one has a few dents—probably from my husband dropping it (LOL)—but aside from that, it’s held up really well and continues to perform just as expected. Highly recommend this lunch box for anyone needing dependable insulation and durability for long workdays.

I did a ton of searching for a good thermos - my kiddo was tired of sandwiches and hates school lunches. This little thermos is a game-changer! I heat it up with boiling water as recommended, warm the food and it's perfect eating temp by lunch time (approx 5 hours). The whole process takes about 7 minutes in the morning while we're making breakfast - I don't even bother drying it, just let it sit upside down for a minute and its hot enough that the leftover water will mostly evaporate before I fill it. I find it easiest to use my food scale to weigh out the leftovers the night before so I always know I have the correct amount - it easily holds around 400mls. The first couple times, I heated the food too much and it was too hot for him to eat at lunch! There's been a couple times I've gone to clean it after school (10-ish hours later) and the leftovers are still tepid. Cleans up quickly and the included spoon is a nice touch. The seal can be removed for washing and is very good quality. He can open it himself (10yo) easily as long as I don't crank the lid on super tight (it doesn't need to be, I rate it super highly on being leak-proof). We've had it for a couple months now and use it every school day, it still looks like new. 10/10 would recommend! **tip - make sure to clean it every night, it gets smelly quick if left overnight with scraps/leftovers. Just a quick hand-wash and air dry overnight. That's in the instructions, and spot-on. Make sure to not let that happen! It does still clean well, but I imagine if left for several days, it would start to affect the sealing ring. Side note - We've never tried it with cold food, only hot. I'm interested to see how it would perform with like - ice cream or a smoothie if primed with ice first! That'll be a spring/summer thing. :-)

This is a great school thermos. Food has stayed hot within a 5-6 hour window. My daughter loves that is has its own spoon. I gave it 4 stars because the vacuum seal/valve in the lid doesn't work and liquids do slightly leak out of the valve. The first day we received it, the valve worked but it created such a tight fit my daughter couldn't open it by herself (she's 11). After a few attempts to see how loose we could screw the lid on where she would be able to get it off, it stopped working and now if you turn the thermos on it's side or upside down, liquid will slightly drizzle out of that hole. I'm not sure what the point of that was anyways. Clearly it functions well for keeping food hot and frankly I'm glad the valve doesn't work cause my daughter wouldn't be able to get it open by herself. We are keeping it, but for the cost, there are probably similar items out there that do just as good a job of maintaining temps for lower cost.

This product is an amazing product, why? Because for 8 plus hours it keeps the food hot. I bought it for my granddaughter to take to school to for lunch.

I have absolutely no complaimts and only positive things to say about this DaCool Food Thermos! Saves space by storing a folding spoon inside, leak proof seal lets me keep my favorite food (soup!) in the pocket of my bookbag and keeps my food in good quality condition for a wonderful pick-me up on cold or rainy days, AND it is dishwasher safe so it saves me time from having to clean it out by hand before I need it next! I bought this for my boyfriend but I keep stealing it so I’m buying another for me, worth every penny of the $15.99 it costs! Íd honestly pay more!

Keeps food warm until my son’s lunch and is a decent size. My son likes to beat things up and it’s still going, I little dented, but still keeps food warm. I took the advice of putting hot water in it before adding food.

i don’t like the opening part the food is leaking.
