Stanley Classic Bottle 1.9L. Classic Flask/Recommendation on a Replace

[Fudge40]

As per the above topic has anyone had a Stanley flask that now does not keep drinks warm?

I purchased the above flask 10 months ago & to start with it was fantastic, now it does not keep drinks warm for more than a few hours,

I will be trying to place a claim under there lifetime warranty but does anyone know where information as all I have been able to find is an email address to PMI who I believe make the Stanley flask.

 

Just in case I get nowhere with the warranty claim can anyone recommend a new flask that wont let me down so quickly?

 

Thank in advance

Mine didn't keep anything warm from day 1. If you look at the reviews online, it is a common theme. Ditch it.

 

I took it back to the shop I bought it from for a refund and got an Ultimate Thermos from Amazon.

 

 

Here is a mail I got from the local distributor. I don't believe them as poor reviews persist on Amazon.

Hi,

 

Please forgive the delayed reply. The heat loss fault does occur with

Stanley Flasks, however other than leaking it is the only possible issue

that can arise with a flask. It only happens to a finite percentage of the

flasks and Stanley have assured us that any manufacturing defects have now

been rectified and the problems will not be an issue ongoing.

 

Kind Regards,

I purchased one from Dunelm Mill in December last year. I've had absolutely no issues with that or the 1.2l one I have. Keeps hot drinks warm for over 24hrs...

I have an Aladdin Challenger, used it fowling in the proper cold, and use it daily for work. So far, it's been spot on and it's incredibly well insulated. I poured water out of it on a Monday morning...that had been there from Saturday nights flight. It was still very warm and had it been coffee, it would have been a drinkable temperature still. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

Only had the Thermos Ultimate for a few months, but very very good so far, keeps drinks hot for at least 24 hours!

I've got a 1L Thermos, not sure of the model but it will last for at least 12 hours. It's about 3 years old. I use it everyday for work and it's spot on.
