Review on ๐Ÿฑ Thermos 16 Ounce Vacuum Insulated Travel Food Service Equipment & Supplies by Noah Trigg

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Large capacity, good compaction control, a guide

I really want to give this unit 5 stars. Great Look/Feel, Great Performance, Amazing Performance. Why ring? As other astute users have noted, drinking from a 360ยบ angle is impossible. I really like that I can drink with my right or left hand which is one of the reasons I bought it. Fluid flows from a 1.5 inch wide slit on opposite sides of the cap. The problem and ringing is that there is no visual or tactile marking. The cracks are hard to see (this can be fixed by stroking along or around the plastic). slots), so it's difficult to align the top properly when screwing it in... You need this handle at right angles to the center of the slots to safely guide what you're drinking into your mouth and not over your shoulder . Can the lid be designed to snap with the desired handle and slot orientation? I do not know; you might think Here is how I solved this problem for me. Using a small, portable, battery-powered engraver, I engraved three sets of lines on the lid. The first, top and outside, aligns the lid with the handle, which has a center line in the mold. This in itself eliminates the potential problem of dripping. I took this a step further by engraving the radial center lines and edge lines that represent the drink slots. a short distance up the lid, near where the disc is sealed... stays well below where the lips meet the lid. So, thermos, you almost got it right. Just think better about usability; Visually or tactilely orient the lid to the handle and it will be 101%.
