This Legendary Stanley Bottle Is Loved by Generations—We Found out Why

For any coffee drinker, a travel thermos is practically an essential. And while there are tons of options out there nowthese are our favorite coffee thermos brandsthe Stanley Classic Legendary Bottle is a workhorse that is as useful today as it was 100 years ago.

Why We Love It

As far as insulated bottles go, this one is high quality and lasts for years. Its double-walled vacuum insulation means it will keep liquids hot or cold for countless hours. It's leak-proof, so you don't have to worry about spills in the car, a backpack or your camping gear. And it's even dishwasher safe, so cleaning is easy-peasy.

It's Loved By Generations

According to one reviewer on Zappos,"I bought this solely because my father and grandfather used the same one as long as I could remember. I've used some other brands in the past but they don't keep coffee hot as long and they never poor rite [sic]."Another reviewer had similar sentiments:"I love this bottle! My late father used one in 1980s while autumn steelhead fishing. Forty years later it is still working, keeping daybreak coffee hot until lunchtime!"My husband is also the proud owner of a Stanley thermos. He purchased one a few years out of college as a special gift to himself. He needed something that could transport his coffee on the way to work and keep it hot for a long time. He chose Stanley because it was the most iconic one out there, and he hasn't regretted it since."It works great. It does exactly what it needs to," he says.

It Really Works

The company claims this insulated bottle can keep liquids hot for 40 hours. Being an engineer, my husband wanted to test this out. So one day last winter, he did a little experiment.He poured near-boiling water into it one evening, closed the cap and placed it out on the back porch for 24 hours. The temperature on that cold Wisconsin day never got above 0F. That evening, he uncapped it and was pleased to find it was still a whopping 115Fdefinitely hot enough for a cup of coffee!

We Put It to the Test

So if you're looking for a new camping thermos or a gift for Father's Day, you can't go wrong with theStanley Classic Legendary Bottle.
