My Cold-Weather Savior: A Metal Thermos That Keeps Me Cozy

As the cold weather starts to set in, I've been thinking about getting myself a thermos for walks so I don't have to buy coffee on the go, saving my budget and making my own coffee just the way I like it.

I scoured online marketplaces and landed on The Best Taste's metal thermos. The seller had this model in two colors - black and white - and I chose the former. At the time of purchase, it was around 1000 rubles (I bought it last winter), and I'm not sure if it's still available now.

I was a bit concerned about the price, but I'm glad I took the chance. Plus, I've been using it for a while now, and it's been a game-changer for my daily coffee routine.

I received my order in a plain box with a QR code stuck to it, which anyone could've opened to see what was inside - that's a minus for the seller. Here's what it looked like when I got it.

A close-up of the QR code that was just stuck to the box. The packaging was decent, made of thick cardboard. Inside the thermos wasn't damaged, which was a relief.

When I opened the box, I was glad to find no 'cheap Chinese product' smell. I always check for any issues on the first day of use. It holds exactly one liter, and I try not to fill it all the way up to the lid so it doesn't leak when I tilt it.

You can only drink from it by flipping the lid, which can be a bit tricky to open. Most thermoses are designed for drivers who need to drink while driving, but this one's not - you can't open it with one hand. I've gotten used to it, but it's something to consider if you're planning to use it for daily commutes.

The inside metal is similar to aluminum, but I think it's some kind of stainless steel. The idea behind these thermoses is that the liquid cools down slower, and this one does it perfectly - my coffee stays warm for hours, even in the freezing cold. I took it with me on a walk and it kept my drink warm for a long time.

The thermos itself is also metal, with a rubber grip attached to prevent burns. It's well-designed and fits comfortably in my hand - nothing slips out. This is a great product for people who want a hassle-free thermos experience.

The Good and the Bad

I've been using this thermos for a while now, and I've got some thoughts to share.

First off, the build quality is top-notch. It's a high-quality model perfect for walks, but not for drivers. The inside metal is similar to aluminum, but I think it's some kind of stainless steel. This is a major plus for me, as my coffee stays warm for hours, even in the freezing cold.

One thing that took some getting used to is the lid. You can only drink from it by flipping the lid, which can be a bit tricky to open. But I've gotten used to it, and it's not a deal-breaker for me.

Now, let's talk about the pros and cons.

The Good:

It keeps drinks warm even in freezing temperatures. It's reasonably priced. The rubber grip is comfortable to hold. And the best part - it doesn't leak!

The Not-So-Good:

The lid can be a bit tricky to open, but that's not a problem for me since I'm not a driver.

I'm really happy with my purchase and would recommend it to others. If you're in the market for a reliable thermos, I'd definitely consider this one.
