Zojirushi Steel Food Jar, Medium, Black/Stainless

It keeps my food warm for up to 6 hours.

I refrigerated the jar for an hour, then filled it with ice cream and topped the ice cream with chocolate syrup. Four hours later my husband ate this treat and his complaint was that the chocolate syrup was frozen! Excellent temperature-preserving food jar, sturdy and good quality. Perhaps a note on the Japanese attitude toward Americans; all the warning labels on the jar were in Japanese characters except one; it was in English only and warned users to not pre-heat the jar (stainless steel) in a microwave oven.

You can never go wrong with a Zojirushi product and their food jar is no different! Keeps food piping hot (I do put warm water in it first to pre-heat) for hours and hours and doesn't leak.

I needed something a littler larger than my 12oz food flask for a 10-day back country hunt trip where all our food was dehydrated due to weight restrictions. My meals included peas, carrots, noodles, chicken, etc. When rehydrating those foods in an open container, they don't ever fully rehydrate. Put the dry food in this container, add boiling water, put the lid on and walk away for 30 minutes and you will have fully rehydrated meals - it was a great comfort at the end of a long day of carrying a heavy pack around. One evening we got back to camp late and I only ate 1/2 my meal before going to bed. The next morning (7 hours later), I opened my container and my food was still warmer than "room temp" for breakfast. That night temperatures dropped to the upper 30s and I was in a tent, so this jar did all the work of keeping my food warm. I used this twice a day for 10 days and am very happy with it. Others were using mylar bags and were not getting fully rehydrated meals and had to eat quickly to have a warm meal. This jar was well worth the cost and weight.

I love this thermos for its perfect size (holds a full can of soup with some room to spare) and its shape (easy to clean inside). It does not leak and it keeps food warm. I am disappointed by how strongly the lid components retain food odors. Even if I take the whole lid apart and soak the parts in vinegar and dish soap, they still smell like the soup I had in the thermos. I can still recommend the thermos for its functionality, I just wish the lid materials didn’t absorb odor. I’m a little concerned about the longevity of the lid gasket since I remove it for cleaning each time, but too soon to evaluate.

Zojirushi is a great brand of insulated products and this is one of them. Lunch stays warm after several hours. Big enough capacity for a good sized meal.

These containers really keep the food warm. Made lunch for the kiddos and packed them at 6AM. By their lunch hour the food is still hot, six hours later.

Nice open widemouth for easy access for food. The body of the container is all vacuum stainless steel and has a nice simple shape that is easy to clean, but the lid is problematic. The lid is fully plastic, which has two drawbacks: 1) not very insulating, and 2) it absorbs the smell of every food it has ever come in contact with. Since heat rises, hot food cools down pretty quickly compared to my kleen kanteen, which has a 18/8 stainless steel lid. But that is not nearly as bad as the smell of the lid after a few times of use. I've used this container no more than 5 times since I bought it, washed it obsessively, soaked it in vinegar, and it still smells like every meal I've ever put in there-- sweet or savory. I could not eat my blueberry oatmeal when it came out smelling like the kimchi/sesame oil that the container last came in contact with. The kimchi also stained the lid red. And by the way, the pressure release doesn't work. I was stranded on the top of a mountain with my container of food so tightly sealed I couldn't open the container, because it had cooled off and created a negative pressure inside. My final recommendation is, go with Kleen Kanteen.

Yeterli sıcaklıkta tutuyor. Almaya değer

The product is fabulous. Small but perfectly formed. I've made porridge in here and it's Perfect. Pour hot water off the boil into the container and replace the lead, leave for 10 minutes. Then, discard the water and add porridge oats and top up with boiling water (the amount of water depends on personal preference). You may need to experiment, how thick or runny you like your porridge. Place the lid back onto the container and leave for about 45 minutes. You will have creamy, delicious and heart-warming porridge. No saucepan to wash, no single-serving pot to dispose off, no cooking or even microwaving. Honest , healthy food and your bit for the environment. What's not to like. i have not test tried the container for carrying soup in and the temperature the retained. However, the porridge was piping hot (that said, I usually consume the porridge within two hours of it being prepared).

I like it thanks supplier. I like it as it helps a lot when I eat outside. The heat contain remain for 3-4 hrs.

At work I would never take food me even if I could heat it up using the microwave they had in the kitchen as it was hardly cleaned. I thought it would be a great idea to fatty the thermos and see if it actually worked. I cook salmon with a bit of rice and vegetables the night before work. I microwave it at home the morning just before leaving. I would say it keeps food hotter than warm but it’s not piping hot it’s just right.6 hours later.

Kids love it for school lunch. Keeps foor warm and does not leak. Very easy to clean, as all peices come apart. I usually hand wash it but it is dishawsher safe. It holds enough for hungry teenagers.
