can it hold hot water?

Yes, but I don't advise using this. It holds such a small amount and it is difficult to use and carry. It is a good concept that didn't turn out well in practice.

I would not recommend using it to hold hot water. Only use lukewarm at best. Keep in mind the cap is not airtight, so whatever steam it couldn't hold will put pressure on the cap's seal and lid, and might end up leaking between the walls. I have only used this bottle with lukewarm liquid and that worked OK. I also experimented with carbonated drinks and that resulted in a bit of leaking from the cap. I forgot if the seals leaked, but I definitely got the fizzy liquid on my hands when I opened the cap lid. Now imagine that being trapped hot steam/liquid. I don't think you would want to have that.

I don't think so - I rinsed mine in really hot water once and it seemed to turn the inner tube a little opaque so I only use cold soapy water now.

Yes! I fill it with cold tap water and it still comes out hot enough. Almost "McDonalds" hot. lol

no. it's cheap and it leaks with even cold beverages. plastic wouldn't hold up to hot.

You can use it for hot water but need to buy the K cup insert that the machine recognizes & then dispenses the water

Yes, it can. I bought this pot several months ago. It turns out to be a good one at this price. Good use for hot pot!

yes it can. just make sure the hot and cold water lines are connected to the right faucets.

Yes the hot water bottle can hold hot water as well as cold water. Do Not use boiling water it will damage the rubber.

Yes, you can put hot water in it... not BOILING or you will melt the plastic tank. You could also do a water vinegar mix if you have some stubborn stains. Just using hot water does the job as well... you don't need to buy those other liquids.

Yes. We have tested in it a small bathroom which gets steamy from the hot shower. It holds well. Other customers may be able to attest to this as well. In fact, one of the user photos shows it in a bathroom.

It can hold 2L hotwater. It's enough for two persons, keeping temperature well. I didn't put hot coffee or any cold beverage into it. just for hotwater.

It sure can hold hot water, but I'm not sure if it's cap won't leak when put in the sleeping bag

the directions that come with the bottle say that it is not made to hold hot water. I used mine for it, but the bottle gets very hot and hard to handle if you put really hot water in it. In the long run I am not sure about the damage, i gave up mine because after some time it developed a rust spot and the water had a steel/metal taste - no matter how fresh it was.

Yes to both questions. Any kind of tea will work. It can handle the hot water.

Yes you can put hot water in it. Water over about 120F will put small dimples in the outside of the cooler. Stays hot for many hours:) Been using these for portable handwash stations for many years!

It's possible to hold hot drinks in it, but it's not a thermos bottle and therefore won't hold the temperature. I'd recommend the insulated version if you would like your drink to stay hot.

I haven't used it for hot water either, but I agree it should be fine. It's very heavy duty plastic. Not thin and does not bend..

I don't see why not. The glass should have no problems with hot water. Good luck!!
