Pioneer Flasks SVB350 Pioneer Insulated Vacuum 350ml Travel Flask, 18/10 Stainless Steel – Keeps Drinks Hot for 8 Hours, Black, 0.35L

As lockdown eases a little I have to go out and about a bit in my role as a key worker. Because there are no cafes open I unearthed an old flask and then, treated myself to the up-to-date version. I'm absolutely delighted with it.Technology has moved on since I last bought a vacuum flask. The liquid is still kept hot, or cold, by means of a vacuum but in the modern world this means two sheets of metal with a vacuum between; so no danger of smashed glass as I used to sometimes find in my school bag.The lid of this vacuum is very ingenious - to add the liquid before you go out you unscrew the cap, but then, once out and ready for a drink you simply press the middle section of the cap and it pops up to reveal a pouring feature. This cap pours liquid without spilling even on a moving train.The flask keeps liquid hot for 8 hours - not that you'd want to but I noticed when I came to clean it. The flask is easy to clean but has a narrow neck, so I find it's best to do it by hand with a bottle brush.The flask is easy to dismantle and use even for a person with a visual disability like myself.I have seen the previous reviews that say these flasks leak but I've not had a single episode. It is vital, of course, to ensure that both rings of the cream-coloured screw-in cap are pressed down firmly before travel - otherwise the flask would most certainly leak. I carry it upright in my backpack, securely wedged between the side and a chunky book.At £9.99 I feel it's very good value.Absolute winner.

It is easy to use, it temperature durability is amazing as it takes about 8hours to get cold and easy to clean. The lid is also sturdy and well fixed with no leakage

Does the job - stays warm enough and doe not leak

I've had this product a couple of weeks and I absolutely love it, have been using it most days during lockdown. It keeps the liquid really hot for hours (I even forgot and left it in my van overnight in January and it was still warm the next day..)I bought this because its compact and slightly smaller than most flasks, which is great, and I've found it still gives enough tea for two people. The cup is little but insulated and overall the size is perfect.Design is lovely, it feels strong and quality in your hands. The only thing that seems a little delicate is the click-button to pour, I'm being gentle with this and it has been working fine.Some people said this flask leaked but I have not had any problems at all. When you wash it, make sure you rinse the little pouring section, and click it open and closed while you clean and dry it. I think this may hold some water which could be why people think its leaking.Love my flask! And affordable too! Great product.

I’m in a van and as things get moved around and end up upside down sometimes, I found it didn’t leak at all!!They say things stay hot for a few hours but I found making tea at six in the morning and then opening it up at 8 o’clock in the evening to empty out what was left it’s still piping hot!!!It’s worth paying a little more than the cheap ones around as they often break when knocked but this one is solid.

keeps coffee hot for a long time

Excellent flak, keeps coffee hot for hours. Good pourer.

It is a large flask. the carrying handle is good. Issues started straight away. Removing the advertising label from the flask, would be easy ... my mistake! The glue that they used was a pain to remove. It should have taken a max 30 secs to remove, but instead it took minutes. I did not want to scratch the flask. Then there is the cup arrangement. A white one it is not a cup as we know it! Plus any hint of a breeze and it will blow away. The main cup the outer and cover is more tradition plastic inside, stainless outside combo. It is fiddly to screw onto the flask, because there is a pin that click when it reaches the handle position. I have a short fuse when simple tasks, just don't happen, and lest say that clip is now history. It has the advantage it is a lot easier to screw the cup onto the flask... but know it does not line up with the handle when screwed tight. But the biggest issue I have is with the stopper plug. Most flasks have a wide top which gives you grip to undo/tighten. Not this one, it is a counter sunk stopper. It has a recess that creates a little handle, in which you use you thumb, finger or combo to unscrew/screw to close and open. If you have joint issues or arthritis I would not recommend this flask. I can find it difficult to undo and tighten. The pouring spout this provides is on the small side so fluids can gush out. For the size of the flask it is not as good at keeping things hot compared to my other stainless steel flasks. This leads to the large uninsulated stopper body. These when unscrewed gives a nice wide opening for cleaning the flask, which is great when you have used it for soup. But this is where so much heat is lost. Having not used it outside in real cold temps the temp of the contents would be lost within a few hours. Good looking flask but too many issues. I will be looking for a replacement.

Calidad precio aceptable, mantiene caliente el contenido varias horas sin problema, más tiempo no lo utilice.

J'avais hésité en lisant certains commentaires qui parlait de fuite. La mienne ne fuit pas, elle garde la température au minimum 12 heures donc convient parfaitement à l'usage que j'en ai. Evidemment , je ne la promène pas la tête en bas !

Solide et étanche.

Ras

Ich benutze die Isolierkanne im Winter. Den Schraubverschluss lasse ich immer offen. Aber während meiner Arbeitszeit bleibt mein Tee den ganzen Tag heiß. Der Griff ist sehr praktisch, wenn ich geschäftlich unterwegs bin. Ich hatte vorher eine andere, die aber sehr schnell kaputt gegangen ist. Diese allerdings scheint sehr robust zu sein.
