 Stanley 20 oz food jar Nov 04, 2009
Bought this for my husband and he thinks it is great! It fits a can of soup in perfectly and keeps it warm for hours. Easy cleaning with a wide mouth.
amazing!!! Oct 26, 2009
All I really want to say is that this is truly amazing. I made some coffee and put it in this thermos (after adding boiling water for 5 min and removing) and my coffee stayed warm for the 12 hours I needed it. It probably would have gone longer but I did not need it longer. And it keeps doing this over and over every time I use it. Highly recommended.
Also for the food jar thermos, it is also very amazing. I put some soup in there and it stayed very hot (also after adding boiling water for 5 min and removing) for 6 hours. Then i ate it all and did not really test or have to test it out for longer. Also highly recommended.

 You can't be serious. Oct 13, 2009
Before I made my purchase, I read the reviews for the Stanley bottle I wanted. There were good reviews buzzing about and there were bad reviews loitering around. The ratio of good reviews to bad ones was about 6:1. Which, with to my standards, helped uplift my consumer confidence. So i clicked and it came on the following Monday.
Not to be someone who throws bad reviews around to conjure misery, but some things must be said:
The good
1. The mighty bolt will hold 1.1 quarts of coffee.
2. It looks cool, I guess.
The bad
1. The temperature of your coffee will diminish in mere hours. Say you store a cup of 200 degree Fahrenheit coffee. In about an two hours, it will be half that at best.
2. It's big and bulky-- not recommended for people who already have big items in their bag.
For those of you who enjoy lukewarm to cold coffee. Go ahead, get it.

Steaming hot soup! Sep 02, 2009
I bought the Bolt to take to work with me and use it to hold soup. I love that it's large enough to hold a large can of soup so there are no leftover bits of soup in the fridge. It is a little heavy, but seems very well-made and like it will last for years and years. I leave my house around 8am and generally eat around 12:30pm. As long as you warm the Bolt up for 5 minutes (per the instructions) with boiling water and then put in your hot soup, it will stay steaming hot til lunchtime, and even when I've emptied it out at night, when I didn't eat the soup, it is still warm (definitely above room temp) at 6pm when I get home. I'm not sure I would buy this for cold beverages, because it did say in the instructions that it is not to be used with carbonated beverages (soda). For anyone that's looking for a hot lunch - this is an excellent product!

Great Thermos Aug 25, 2009
This review only applies to the 20oz bolt food jar. Amazon lumps all the bolts under one review section, so it is confusing. The commuter cup is lined with plastic and is a lousy and doesn't work well. I love the food jar thermos however, particularly in the summer, keeps ice cubes really well when the beverage is cold. If there's cold water and ice cubes, you can have it sit without the lid and the ice cubes are intact for several hours. As far as leaking goes, I did have leaks if it gets inverted and if the lid is not screwed on super tight, so not perfect for all occasions. Have to screw it really tight, if you do, generally it doesn't leak. I use it to be green so I can pack water and not pollute the environment with plastic bottles. It's highly recommended for keeping cold liquids cold and hot ones hot. Worked very well with hot soups also.
