Is the inside of the container straight up and down or does it have "shoulders" where the opening is narrower and then widens inside the container? the 10 oz Thermos I have is straight and much easier to clean. I have another insulated jar that has the...

The lid screws down securely, the only issue I have had is that it ends up not exactly lined up with your mouth after using for a while, but it's only about 3/8 of an inch off. Great mug to buy for the price.

Jennifer R is WRONG and has obviously never used/cleaned this thermos before. It is NOT plastic inside. Only the drinking part (that can be removed) is plastic and does not touch the liquid when filled to the correct level. The inside is not a shiny stainless steel. It's a smooth, non-shiny metal.The body itself is metal. The top, screw-on cap and the part that touches your mouth (neither is in contact with the liquid if the thermos is not overfilled and the thermos remains upright) are the only plastic parts.

The back is straight (except for the back of the lid sticking out a bit). But the can IS narrower at the bottom than at the top. The angle is in the front not the back.

Yes. The opening is more rounded. It's not a slit that so many travel mugs use.

The entire lid lifts up and opens. The smaller cutout on the front is just the clamp that secures the lid to the container; there is no smaller door or opening. I have the 50lb container.

I bought the Stanley Utility 18oz (stainless with green screw on top). Fits perfect in smaller compartment. Not that it is problem for my husband but this food jar has a cap only no pouring cup, & it holds heat great.

Mine is a 34 ounce but I would expect the inside to be the same and it appears to be brushed. Mine is, in fact, a little stained already. I can't get my hand inside so I use a wooden or plastic stirring spoon handle to swish a wash cloth or sponge around inside. I use a drying towel the same way. I don't find it difficult to clean the lid inside and out.

Hi- the opening is fairly wide- 2 3/4". It is 6" deep. I love the thermos. When I make smoothies, they stay cold for a long time. I recommend it. I Hope this helps.

If you mean open the lid, then yes, it is easy to open. But because of the design, it takes a slightly different pull on the lid. Instead of just lifting the lid straight up, I find it easier to lift at a slight angle.

I was looking around for that, too. I actually ended up getting the Thermos 10-oz. "Thermos Flower Food Jar - Purple (10 oz.)" (there are also "fashion" and "lava" designs) because the cap was stainless steel...though only on the outside, as it turned out. All the food jars I've been able to actually examine in person have plastic on the inside of the lid, with plastic threads for the screw-top and sometimes a kind of silicone-type O-ring as well. Having read a lot of mixed and poor reviews for stainless-steel caps on water bottles, I suspect it's pretty hard to get a good, easy-closing seal with stainless steel on stainless steel....

The lids have a gauge on them. The temp is supposed to be right in the middle. If the lid spins easily, the temp is about right. If it does not spin, it is too cold and if it sputters steam it is too hot. So it is loose by design.

The lid opening is small!!! We add in chopped candies etc. when we are spooning the "frozen" ice cream into our containers one layer at a time.

That lid is pretty tight, Rubbermaid is reliable, sometimes its a trip to open the 2 spouts. I can't make any guarantees about being on it's side since I've not tried it, you have to decide. FYI: it's a big carafe.

I had wash my thermos so I can get all of the stuff that trapped behind the gasket etc. There's a much better thermos out there at a lower price. This is the one I upgraded too. http://www.amazon.com/Thermos-Stainless-King-24-Ounce-Midnight/dp/B008JC76XA/ref=pd_bxgy_k_text_z it holds more food and costs less than the one you're looking to buy.

I totally disagree with other that have answered. The pour is slow. So slow, in fact, that pouring out of the lid into a mug results in a guaranteed mess. The pour is too slow, which causes liquid to trickle down the sides of the thermos.. every.. single.. time
