I'm considering this thermos for hauling ice to work. Does it keep drinks cold-cold for a long period of time? Thanks.

Hi - i've only used the thermos for hot foods. I've heated food at about 7 in the morning and it's been hot until I eat the food at about 1:00. - never tried it for cold foods - sorry

I love this bag. The re-useable ice pack keeps your food cold for 4 to 5 hrs. It's not refrigerator cold, but it is better then any other lunch bag I have owned. I hope this helps

have only used cold. We use it mostly on our motorcycles. We have forgotten to empty and when doing it the next day the ice is still in it. It also has a nice handle.

My husband uses this for work everyday and keeps it in the car. The cold drinks keep very cold with the ice packs. He is very happy with this cooler.

It's as good as you're likely to get, short of a thermos. I've had mine for a few years now, and the lid is still pretty good if you're carrying something thick like a stew, but a tiny bit leaky if you're carrying something really liquid like chicken stock, especially if the lid is cold. I always tie the mug into a plastic bag if I think it might tip in my backpack. The advice to hand-wash the lid rather than putting into the dishwasher is good: I think if you did that the lid would keep its watertight qualities longer.

Yes. The ice bag does not "sweat" or leak. It keeps stuff cold for about 3-5 hours.

It keeps mine cold for about 4-5 hours but I have never used it for 6 hours. And yes it fits in my bag

Depends on your time frame and ambient temperature. It is not better or worse that other similar coolers on the market. If you are serious about keeping stuff frozen for more than a few hours you are going to need to pack with dry ice or invest in a freezer that can run off a car battery. For my purposes it keeps milk and meat cold for several days but I change put the ice every 48-72 hrs depending on how hot it is.

The inside is stainless steel, I would compare it to a really great thermos. This is the best thing ever if you want to keep your drinkshot for a long time. I have not yet tried to keep a drink cold, as winter has drug on, but it says it will do that to.

I only use this tumbler for cold drinks, once filled with some ice it stays cold for a couple of hours.

ABSOLUTELY, YES! Also love the lg bag. I haven't had to keep something cold for "up to 10 hours", but it has worked for me for 6 hours. There's no frig at work, so the bag will keep my lunch cold from 6am until lunch. Lg bag great for carry cold drinks for the boys when they are playing sports. Lots of times they are usuable, that they work and that they are so very convenient.

Agree with many other responders -- stays warm for maybe 8 hours -- but definitely not hot after that. Insulation is present, but it's not like a thermos at all.

Yes, I have not noticed this type of problem. I use the thermos throughout the winter on short trips.

put ice packs in mine. it is cold 9 to 10 hours later. If you preheat the thermos it will go just about 24 hours

Yes, I would recommend this for smoothies! I could not believe after 3 days I still had ice water in this thermos. To make the smoothies stay thicker longer, you may just want to put some ice in the thermos for 10-15 minutes to get it cold then remove the ice and put the smoothie in, should stay firm pretty long. These thermos' are great, best I've ever used and highly recommended for hot OR cold ;>) Enjoy your COLD smoothies ;>)

I am not sure as I use it for cold items. I do know that it keeps my drink fairly cold for about 3 hours until I remember to put it in the refridgerator.
