Pioneer Flasks SVP1500 Vacuum Insulated Leakproof Flask with 2 Cups and Retractable Handle, Stainless Steel, 1500ml / 1.5L

Product Information

A big part of the appeal of the Stanley is that it makes you feel like an intrepid camper, thanks to the distinctive green branding. With a lifetime warranty, the iconic flask will survive even the wildest of adventures: since it was founded in 1913, Stanley bottles have survived -70 degree winds, 4,000 foot drops, speeding bullets and category 5 hurricanes (please do not try this yourself). Since the American manufacturer, Thermos, came to fame, the term has become slang for vacuum-insulated flasks. Although the terms are largely interchangeable, the original scientific phrasing is 'vacuum flask'.

Flasks are more 'smell prone' than 'stain prone' – none of the flasks we tested had any staining after cleaning, but some retained a faint coffee smell. The original and, judging from the results of our temperature test, still the best. This stainless steel flask is very durable, with a silicone base to protect against dents. The two-part stopper closes securely yet pours easily and has an integrated cup. In terms of outright heat-holding performance for up to 8 hours, nothing can touch the Ultimate Series. It was the best-performing flask we tested overall. It is relatively lightweight too. And if you’re concerned that the 500ml capacity will be too small, it’s worth noting that Thermos also makes a larger 900ml version. Full Specifications If you want to carry your flask long distances, it’s a lightweight option – weighing 400g (14 ounces) with canteen cap, or 380g (13.4 ounces) with sports cap, while empty. Capacity: 500ml / Temperature test: 0 hrs 90°c, 90 mins 89.3°c, 4 hrs 82.8°c, 6 hrs 79.2°c, 8 hrs 75.3°c, 24 hrs 50.9°c / Stainless steel interior and exterior / Cool-touch, no-slip finish / Protective silicone rings for ultimate durability / Two part stopper for smooth pouring. BUY NOW: THERMOS.CO.UKThe wide mouth means it’s also suitable for soups and smoothies to take to work, and it will certainly keep them either sufficiently cold or hot until lunchtime. It's available in a range of colours, which is fun, from canary yellow to baby blue via three shades of pink. To get maximum performance from your flask, you should always pre-warm it before use. Fill it with boiling water and leave to stand for five minutes or so before emptying and refilling with your chosen brew – such as tea, coffee, soup or hot chocolate. Filling your flask right to the top will also help minimise heat loss.

We hand-washed each flask with hot soapy water and let them air dry overnight, then ranked them on smell. Key attributes: Leakproof, practical design enables one-handed drinking, wide mouth for easy filling and cleaning The Stanley Classic is the Daddy of all insulated flasks, and with good reason. My hot water was 84.6°C at 7:51pm, and at 7:51 am it was 70.8 °C – a temperature drop of a mere 13.8°C after 12 hours (far less than its competitors, as detailed below). It comes with two cups with proper handles, so it's a great tea flask. It works well for families and small groups, making 5 or so generous servings. The twist stopper has a cunning hidden compartment in which to store milk or sugar; which I liked.

My hot water was 91.3°C at 8:36pm; at 8:36am it was 75.7°C – a temperature drop of 15.6°C after 12 hours (not that much more than the Stanley, and still piping hot enough for a decent brew). My cold water was 4.4°C at 11:13am, and as with the Stanley, 12 hours later it was even colder – at 1.7 °C. Another advantage of stainless steel it that does not leave a metallic taste in the mouth or residual odours. However, it is always worth cleaning your flask thoroughly with hot soapy water between uses. This flask has a familiar design with a classic ‘pop’ stopper that makes for easy pouring. With cheap, inferior flasks these are often prone to leaking but with this Outwell version the component seems well-made and reliable. It certainly didn’t leak on test. It’s a simple, inexpensive flask that makes use of a classic tried and tested design. The wide mouth makes the flask easy to fill and clean, while the cup’s plastic liner ensures you won’t burn your mouth. On the other hand, it is fairly bulky for a 750ml flask, with a small cup compared to some other designs. The external finish is also a bit slippery and prone to scratching. Full Specifications Similarly to the likes of the Stanley, I like the aesthetic, and it also has a double wall construction to create a vacuum between the outside environment and inside liquid, helping to keep cold drinks cold or hot. The 750ml capacity holds around three cups of hot coffee (or the equivalent of a chilled bottle of white wine).
