can this be used with hot liquids? is it heat resistant plastic

I used it to baste the turkey while it was in the oven and to extract drippings for gravy, so yes, it will work with hot liquids. It really is dripless!

Yes it can. That is what we use it for. Example: Getting the drainage out of the meat laof dish right out of the oven.

I wouldn't try it. Although the inside liner and outside case are metal, there are still parts of the bottle that are plastic. Also, this is an *insulated* bottle - even if it were all-metal, you'd have to get it blazing hot on the outside to heat something on the inside. Would you try the same thing with a Thermos® bottle?

Since it's dishwasher safe, one could put warm (but maybe not boiling hot) beverages in it, but I'd worry about stuff leaching from the plastic until the bottle had gone through a few dishwasher cycles.

yes it should hold the hot liquids but I believe its intended to kI personally would not use it for hot liquid because I don't know it's the interior plastic can handle the heatit may start to break down and crack

I would avoid using boiling hot water with any plastic product BPA free or not.

Not if you are going to use them on it. It is a molded plastic, very sturdy but cannot take hot items.

yes it is safe for hot drinks. it won't break. it's designed to go from frig or freezer to microwave.

I did not use it for plastic...it gets hot but ..I would assume it would melt the plastic not leaving a clean cut

I would not advise adding hot liquids into any bpa-free plastic containers--just as I would not do such with plastic that includes bpa in it. Removing polycarbonate plastics (and epoxy resins) from plastics does not remove the toxicity. According to the Mayo Clinic, "Use alternatives. Use glass, porcelain or stainless steel containers for hot foods and liquids instead of plastic containers."I wish blender-makers would go back to simply using glass pitchers. They are easier to clean, too!

Yes they are safe to use with hot liquids. I washed the dishes wearing one glove, just to test it. The glove didn't leak.

I am not sure that pouring very hot (e.g. boiling) water in it is a very good idea. It's not insulated, so it would get very hot to hold, plus I'm not sure whether the plastic would emit any chemicals due to hot water or not. I put relatively warm water in it with no troubles, but it's only about 100F or so.

I would say it is probably completely dishwasher safe, but I wouldn't use heated drying. As others have said, since it is rated to higher than boiling water temperature, the water won't hurt it, but if you have heated drying you could warp it, and there isn't much room for the plastic to warp and still be assembled.

I have their metal containers for hot beverages. I wouldn't use it for hot beverages for 2 reasons: First, if they don't melt the plastic, they wouldn't maintain their heat; and second, you'd probably burn your hand. I'm sure they are meant solely for non-hot liquid. Their metal containers keep liquids hot for more than an hour!

From my use, it is heat resistant. I have used it to mix sauces and gravies that are boiling/bubbling. Of course I would not suggest leaving it in a pan of hot food, but for the purpose of stirring it up, it does great and I have not had any melting of the product.

I have never put hot liquid in the bottle. It won't keep it warm and the bottle will be hot. I wouldn't put hot liquid in it.

It is made of plastic. As for heat, I ruined one because I put it in the dishwasher. But, I put the new one in and it is fine. So, boiling hot may not be the best.

I haven't personally used them for hot beverages, but if you're looking for an alternative to plastic, I know that glass mugs designed specifically for hot beverages are available. I'll brew a pot, and pour it in the glass and confirm whether or not it can withstand high temps. Great question.
