I see that I am not the only one in the market for a travel thermos. The vintage Stanley that I had for 23 years disappeared during our recent move. Want a replacement with a separate cup for tea/coffee, whatever I'm in the mood for.
Opinions solicited.

Honestly I am not sure you can really do better than those old Stanleys. I'd look on etsy to see if you can find one. They pop up at thrift stores a lot too.

Yeah, I have a cup-style insulated drink cup, but what I need is a vacuum bottle that I can throw in a bag.Bruyere_Royale wrote: ↑Tue Jan 05, 2021 11:23 am Travel thermos? I'm just looking for a regular thermos without an oring that I have to replace every 2 months.
That's a food thermos, you can't pour without removing the cap.Houtenziel wrote: ↑Tue Jan 05, 2021 11:31 amHonestly I am not sure you can really do better than those old Stanleys. I'd look on etsy to see if you can find one. They pop up at thrift stores a lot too.
