Got one for work, I'm Nightshift so I'm usually stuck with cold food. Saw this bought one and the medium sized fit 200g of chicken and 200g rice no issue at all. I'm gonna buy another medium. I didnt want one too large cos of the extra air space inside you just want the container nicely filled. Buy a long camping spork to use with it and your good to go. 5 hours later food was still steaming hot. Easy to clean highly recommend. Quality seems very high seems like it'll last a long time.I ordered this food flask for my husband. He’s given it a good test and had plenty of hot meals from the flask, it says the food will stay hot for 8 hours, it’ll go well beyond that my husband said a few time he’s eating food that’s been in the flask 12 hour, and has been very warm and enjoyable. The build quality of this flask is excellent with the wide opening, and you’re getting value for money and the guy’s pioneer have design a perfect flask, in my husband’s humble opinion. It’s definitely better than the market leaders flask, which he’s owned in the past.So the good news is that it doesn't leak. The bad news is that it didn't keep my food hot. So I bought it to take food to work - heated food at 8am. eating food at 1pm. Although there appeared to be steam when I opened flask, the pasta was barely edible. Tried again with soup - better, same timescale, warmer this time, but still on the cool side of hot. On a cold day it would be miserable when all you wanted was a hot lunch. Yes i heated the flask first, yes i heated the food to really hot before putting it in the flask. I would not put chicken or rice anywhere near this flask. In fact I haven't used it since. This is only 5 hrs. 5!!!! It claims to stay hot for 8 hours.I bought this to carry my yogurt and berries. I prepared my lunch the night before, and the berries are frozen, placed in container with yogurt and left in fridge, at 6 AM, I took out and by noon, when opened, berries were still frozen, along with some yogurt, its not the way I want to eat it but it kept my lunch cold! Now I thaw the berries first before placing in, and lunch is perfect.A great flask for soups etc.I have used it on many a hiking trip and soups stay hot for hours. I have never tried it to keep anything cold.The wide opening makes cleaning so easy. The lid is secure and has never leaked.It’s robust and does what it is designed to do.Simple, no frills and essential if you want hot soup etc outdoors.
