Where is Thermos Brand?

[@markwassel7903]

Definitely need a Round 2. A few brands I'd like to see are Ozark Trails, Corkcicle, Contigo, and lets not forget Thermos, the one that started it all

[@OdegardOnline]

Yes, Ozark Trail seems to work just as good for far less money - I'd really like to see the comparison. I use mine daily. I actually have to put some ice in my hot tea to get the temp low enough to drink it!

[@Vynndii]

Yeah I agree. The test seems a bit biased too with some of these lids. My klean kanteen has a soft plastic sealed lid that I can fill disassemble. Literally no liquid is getting out of it during and tip or drop.

FYI for those that have coffee stains inside tumblers. Used denture cleanser tablets fill tumbler with hot water one tablet let it sit overnight. You’ll be surprised how clean it turns out

[@jkim6200]

Baking soda works finefor most stains. Fill with straight or diluted chlorine bleach (sodium hypochlorite) for those stubborn stains.

That works and if its really tough use a magic eraser before and after! Just like new!

This was awesome! I have a Stanley cup on the way, because I had to see what the hype was about. Someone in my family has one, and I was impressed by the quality and feel of it too. She's only in fifth grade, and so happy to have one like other kids, and boasted in that way fifth graders do how she was gifted the bigger, 40-ounce, while her friend has a 30-ounce. However, I'd have loved to see the Reduce tumbler added to the line-up. Its solid, but boy is it stiff to open if I leave the straw out.

@@ProjectFarm I just had a thought for a video idea: rivnuts and the associated tools. I've seen comments on Amazon/etc. pages that say a lot of the tools don't offer enough compression to keep the rivnuts from spinning in the holes.

[@skulpturlamm294]

As somebody who tests coffee equipment, including tumblers, for a living I think I'm qualified to say you did an outstanding job. One test you should maybe add to your reportoire is a cross cut test for rating the durability of a coating.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks so much! Thanks for the suggestion.

[@Drycleanerguy]

I think he needs to test them with hot liquids, and the slider open. Most cups, with the slider open, will not keep coffee warm enough to drink for even a half hour, while others do much better.

[@starlights50]

RIP my many former mugs.. Love to see repeated hot and cold tests after after some creative abuse.

[@salazam]

@@Drycleanerguy Why put a slider if you're not going to use it? That's the dumbest suggestion I've ever read.

[@Drycleanerguy]

@@salazam Keep in mind that when coffee cools in an insulated cup, almost none of the heat is lost through the walls of the cup. Virtually all heat loss happens via air convection. All cups have two openings in order to pour properly. If there even the slightest difference in height between them, cool air will flow into the lower opening, and the heat will flow out the upper opening, quickly cooling the coffee. Even if you close the slider between sips, convection will still be the main source of cooling in your coffee, because you will get convection from the moment you open the slider until the moment you close it again. From a slider-closed test, you can learn what will happen if you buy a cup of coffee, put it on your desk, then walk away for an hour without ever opening it, but it will tell you nothing about how long the coffee will stay warm if you are actually drinking it. Most of these kept the liquid warm for three hours, but I have tried many different cups, and a half hour is typical in real use, though I have found one cup that keeps coffee warm for about two hours while I am actually drinking it. If another cup would do better, I would buy it.

[@ikyiAlter]

I remember I was doing so much research and reading reviews when I first started working and wanted to buy one. And even $20 felt super expensive at that time. I just wished this was made ages ago. Thanks though. May this help all future people

Project farm we NEED. A best WHEELBARROW video I’ve wasted so much money on wheelbarrows that break too fast or can’t handle enough weight

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the suggestion.

[@user-zp5vt1tu6b]

In the event you don't get a review video I deal with a company called roll n vac that is basically a shop vac that uses a standard wheel barrow as the vessel. The company found out that crappy wheel barrows will actually crumple under vacuum pressure. They tested a bunch of different models and they recommended the Jackson M6KBUT12 as it handles the vacuum without collapsing

[@Mordecrox]

Not on the US but dad and many bought the Frieza wheelbarrows, they look unwieldy because they are built like cybertrucks, but they are sturdy enough that you can ram on everything with reckless abandon. Extremely expensive (4-6x more) but last a lifetime. There should be analog designs out there, bricklayers don't need rounded edges or lightweight tools. These are just thick slabs welded into rough but effective shape.

[@liamvg]

If you do wheelbarrows, try to get the Pivot-All that has the rotating hand grips.

[@caroldragon7545]

One of my favorite parts of your videos is the final chart that shows ratings for each feature and each thing tested. It allows one to make decisions based on what is most important to them. In my case, because of how I carry mine, total leak and spill proof are absolutely necessary. Also, because of arthritis, my old super dependable Contigo is getting too difficult for me to use. I chose the arctic because it was rated high in all the categories I had to have. The only one I was a little wary of was how the lid might be dislodged in certain conditions. I ordered it, and am very pleased with it so far. Time will tell if it continues to be a good choice. I am always so pleased with the way you test things. Kudos!

It's probably been said already, but I'm surprised the Ozark Trail brand tumbler wasn't included.

I when I go to make my next purchase, I might keep Stanley in mind! Good Stuff!!!!!

[@ProjectFarm]

[@Dozav7]

Exactly this. Having an easy to clean lid and quality construction is worth the other disadvantages.

[@vectorwolf]

I like my Yeti, but it's also not this particular model. I can't stand those narrow bottom cups with the handles that are so popular, because they're ridiculously tippy and impractical for anything but putting in your car's cup holder. Why do you even need a handle if the cup is insulated? Now, I inherited a couple of Stanley thermoses from my dad and grandfather, and they still work great. But they aren't these cheap Chinese things that are being mass produced now.

[@gotdangedcommiesitellyahwa6298]

The Yeti I have retains temps fairly well, but the lid is a PITA to clean, and the bottle most certainly retains flavors, even after a thorough washing. Tea flavored coffee isn't very good, despite what Starcucks says.

[@REALtrendingviews]

My Yeti lasted ten years before the paint even started chipping... they are no joke.

[@Krynn72]

If you do a round 2, definitely include the Contigo Autoseal. Its the one they hand out to us at my job in aerospace manufacturing. Its also the only drink container they allow on the shop floor because its the only one they trust to not spill, even if you drop it while drinking out of it because it closes up when you let go of it. Also seems to be insulated pretty well.

Project farm is amazing for any reviews. Welcome

[@ivolocoso6989]

It would be really cool to see a long-term vacuum test, like keeping them and doing the same temperature tests 1 year later, to see if they manage to keep the vacuum seal intact (i believe you tested vacuum insulated bottles a while back, if you still have them you could probably do a similar test), cheers, great video as always

[@ProjectFarm]

Thank you for the video idea!

[@fred_e]

If I am informed correctly. The glass seal on double-wall, vacuum insulated, containers can be damaged by a dishwashing machine

[@mwp1088]

Great idea

[@EinKerl3554]

I would trust the Stanley, I've been using their thermos for 23 years and it still works as good as new.

[@jooger69]

One thing I would have liked to see is the availability of spare parts or additional lids. I can say from experience that it's always the cap that breaks first making the thermos or the tumbler pointless if there are noi replacement parts available. Personally it is very import that the things I buy are repairable and servicable and I hope you could include this type of analysis for the products that you review. I have been able to repair many things because parts have been available.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the suggestion.

[@mmusgrove]

It's ALWAYS the weakest link that sabotages it, which in some cases can be a 5 cent spring or piece of plastic on a $100+ item. It's maddening. Really well-made item, save for that one loser piece.

[@themidcentrist]

Fantastic video!!! I especially appreciated the spreadsheet at the end!!! I ordered the Ironflask tumbler. The ability to absorb an impact with concrete without spilling or breaking sold me, and the fact that it performed well otherwise was a bonus. I got a 32oz one on Amazon for $19.46 including tax. The Tervis would have been my second choice. I was originally going to get a Yeti but I am glad I watched this first, since it is both the most expensive tumbler and isn't well suited for my needs of not spilling my coffee all over the place.

[@On2wheels94]

Really wish the Milwaukee tumblers were included in this test! Also, the biggest factor for me when buying these has become ease of cleaning.. Some develop gross grime spots that are near impossible to clean in the lid design. For this reason, the Yeti is by far the best with its removable magnetic closure

[@WanderingDad]

On a packout surface (I have a holder on my motorcycle!), tipover is 180 degrees, so winner. edit: on the other hand, mine only holds exactly 500g (17.6 oz) of water (full to the top no lid), and the top is way overengineered considering it doesn't seal fully.

Don’t like the lid throw the same size yeti one on it for ease of cleaning. I like the Milwaukee tumbler itself cause I can lock it to stuff as I’m prone to knocking it over. Just don’t like the kid so I use one from one of my yeti tumblers.

I gotta say I love your editing. It's the small things that make it so watchable, user friendly let alone easy on the eyes while getting to the point.

RTIC has been what I’ve been using for years now. I have a 1 gallon Growler I’ve used for work for years now.

Especially during the hot summer months where I’ll go through the entirety of it before lunch.

[@SecretzOfMana]

Contigo snapseal is my favorite for the convenience of opening and closing. They have autoseal ones too, but I prefer being able to open and close manually. You also have to make sure you clean the lid thoroughly once in awhile since it has space under the lid lever part

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the feedback.

[@chemrebel]

Love our Contigo snapseals. It's dummy proof for those night time sips you need to take. The only rubber piece is the little nub on the seal which can be removed for cleaning and pops right back in place. Just don't lose it 😄 it's about the size of a pencil eraser.

[@karylhogan5758]

Own one.. recommended 👍🏻..not yeti

[@YoSpiff]

A useful review, thanks. I have a 16 ounce Zojirushi that can keep my coffee at a drinkable temperature all day. Designed more for coffee than as a water flask. The metal cap seals and locks, so no spills. Been great for traveling. A bit more now than the $23 I paid about 3 years ago, but still worth it.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the feedback.

[@N1ghtF1re]

For a round 2, Contigo and Zojirushi would be nice to see. My Contigo West Loop is my go-to for hot drinks. For me, it's more user friendly and performs decently. My Zojirushi easily outperforms any other cup I have, I just don't like flip top cups, so I don't use it as often.

In the early 2000s Starbucks sold Zojirushi thermos style bottles. I have one with a push button top that holds about 20 Oz and one with a slider top that holds about 35 Oz. They are both amazing. They hold the heat for hours and hours. I sure hope the tops never break.

[@michellejohnson4149]

I really like my Yukon Outfitters Come and Get It 20 Oz. Mug. It's made in TN rather than China. Don't know what kind of lid it comes with; I found it in the middle of the street and put a Yeti lid on it, which fit just fine. This was a great to watch! First show of yours I've seen - won't be the last! Maybe a show on the made in America mugs?

[@DaleDenton]

Your video with all the different metal water bottles convinced me to get a ThermalFlask from Costco as opposed to a HydroFlask when those were all the hype. It performed almost exactly the same if not better in some tests and a 2 pack cost me $25 at the time. I still use it daily 3+ years later.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the feedback.

[@nirfz]

For the spilling and onehanded operation i bought a contigo last year where you have to push a button with your index finger while drinking. ->holding the button pressed means the drinking opening is open and a vent hole is too. When letting go of the button, both close and it doesn't spill. It even has a lock for the button so you can prevent it from getting pressed.

[@ProjectFarm]

[@CitEnthusiast]

I like the straw option with the Stanley, no need to open the lid. But what's missing from this review is, as others mention, the cleanability of the lid as well as how easy it is to empty the tumbler. Some lids block the last bit of fluid and it can be frustrating when the lid must come off to get that last drop! But overall this was a great idea to review tumblers, and very well done. I'll be getting a Stanley, great performer!

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks and you are welcome!

[@javaman2883]

with some you are missing more than the last drop with the lid on.

[@no_peace]

The Camelbak one has different lid options, it's really cool. You can get straw lids, sip lids and with/without handle, plus different sizes. I have the straw one and I think it's better than the sip one. I also have a huge version though so it has different characteristics, like I think it probably doesn't tip over as easily. But if it does, the straw doesn't really leak anyway

[@starlights50]

Clean-ability is my number one deal-breaker. Because the vast majority fail, it's the fastest way to eliminate a multitude of prospects. Temperature retention, then durability. I have however lost each of my flasks due to dropping and ruining the vacuum seal. Best I had was a Kitchen stuff plus, tea infuser with a plunge open/close lid which was accessible but a real pain to clean.

[@BrownieX001]

This is great testing. I am glad you added so many tests like tipping over angle, even though it might not make a big different. It's interesting to see the design behaviour. Would be great to have this for water bottles. And bigger sizes. I have used Yeti, LTT and Kleen Kanteen water bottles, I am really curious how the new Stanleys hold up.

Great review! My ultimate favorite is the Stanley Admiral Mug. Not sure why it's not more popular, but it's the absolute most stable, holds 24 oz, and keeps coffee reasonably hot for well over 15 hours. And completely spill proof (when new) and I've had mine for several years and no rust at all. I'd love to see this one tested against some of its peers.

This is a fantastic comparison. The only thing I wish you could have compared is how the lid and spout is to drink out of.

Keep up the great work 👌👌🙏🙏

[@TheIronDuke9]

Great suggestion. I find the popular models with the heads that rotate 90 degrees for storage are the worst - the lock mechanism can't hold when I'm using them, especially on heavy wet snow, and they want to fold while I'm brushing. The best one I found isn't a brush but a rectangle piece of high density foam that can push or pull the snow off the vehicle, they might be called a "snow joe" - I'd love to see a comparison between brands though

[@LL-mt2nz]

In the meantime, the snow brush at Costco is my favorite, especially if you have a larger vehicle. I’m interested in the best handheld scraper though.

[@Mazarakis_Spyridon]

VIDEO SUGGESTION: "Best pruning shears". It questions a lot of people what to pick. Also in some shears the safety close automatically after each cut. It is not so convenient for contiguous pruning, but it is safe for sure. Some others can cut thicker branches, even dead ones which are more tough, so you don't have to switch to a handsaw. Although there might be some difficulty, for those that can cut thick branches, to also cut thin greenish tops on plants. Wish you the best sir!

[@daddynunya9045]

I have Stihl loppers. They are expensive and cost me around $100 over 5-6 years ago. I love them. They cut great and the handles don't bend even when i cut overly large limbs. They have served truly and faithfully with nothing more than an occasional oiling and honing of the blade.

[@stephenj4937]

My favorite aspect of the Yeti is it is easy to clean the lid mechanism thoroughly. I have had so many tumblers that end up with mildew growing in the lid mechanisms because they aren't able to be cleaned very well.

[@haphazard1342]

Plus the ability to easily get replacement parts makes the Yeti a good buy. I expect that its weight really worked against it in the temperature tests that Todd ran. Since he didn't pre-heat or -chill the tumblers, the heavier ones with thicker walls probably performed worse as it took more of the beverage temperature to equalize with the tumbler temperature. It's a fair test, but worth pointing out and testing both ways since some people do bother to prepare their tumbler just like a thermos.

Never really realized how bad they were at keep beverages cold or hot until I had to use my wife's Stanley because all of the Yetis were in the dishwasher. My morning coffee that I pour before I leave every morning at 6am was still hot when I pointed it out at 1pm after lunch!!! That's crazy to me 😂. Point being, I buy these specifically because they are insulated and supposed to prolong temperatures. Why else would we buy these over a normal cup?

thankfully I'm not the only stickler in the comments :D

My guess: The grip would create a resistive force against the small ridge, making the test inaccurate as it only was testing tip angle on a flat surface. It wouldn't have hurt to note it at the moment.

[@BRUXXUS]

Yeah, I think that was to test their advertised non-slip base. Although, I think you're right. For test consistency, should have been same as others.

I think the murricon deserved more recognition. A+ in the temp categories (most important category for me), and no corrosion (dishwasher safe). Amazon also has a bundle deal of 4 for $24...$6 each! You get 4 of them for less than 1 stanley.

Totally agree here, temperature retaining ability is is priority!

[@HyakuJuu01300]

He gave it A+, what more recognition you want lol

[@helicopterin]

@@HyakuJuu01300 He didn't give it an A+, it scored A+ in several catagories, like others did. He highlighted 3 tumblers at the end of the video, but didn't mention the murricon, which is kinda surprising given its incredible performance at a fraction of the cost.

@@helicopterin "He gave it" or "it scored it", Whatever the hell you call it lol I'm not playing word games here. The result is A+ in the end. He highlighted the other 3 simply because they're just better, I'm sorry. Murrican might've performed well on heat retention but it performed poorly on other fronts. The price isn't the one and only factor here.

@@HyakuJuu01300 no, he didn’t give it an A+, that was the point I tried to make with my first response. Read the table again, there is no overall score for the tumblers. There are just scores for categories. Given its price for the major performance catagories, I’d say it was the overall winner. It came in 3rd for cold retention, and 2nd for heat retention. It did that at a fraction of the cost of the others at the top.

So a brand that I would have liked to see on this, would have been an Ozark trails one from Walmart. I tend to buy them on impulse whenever I'm walking through the camping section out there, but I remember seeing early test between the yetis rtic almost always testing against the ozarks whenever they first came on the scene.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Good test! And living in the desert a good insulated tumbler is a must. For round 2 please include the Walmart Ozark Trail brand. I've got several of them and they seem to perform the same as the Yeti tumblerss I've got.

Thanks! Thanks for the video idea.
