Is this product strong enough to be filled with hot water?

Dear John, To be on the safe side I WOULD NOT fill the container with hot water. It's rubber and fairly soft, so I only fill it part way to protect yourself and/or others from being burned. Lee

Yes. It holds the heat well if you preheat the mug with hot water before you fill it with coffee.

yes. that's exactly what i used it for. we have circulating hot water for heat and that's what i covered.

This does have a good steaming ability. I think if not filled too full, it should work nicely.

I think it would. I have done something similar, and it kept the water hot for a couple of hours. I haven't tried it for a longer period of time, so I can't guess how long it will so work.

Technically, yes. You would have to slowly pour the hot water in at a rate equal to the draining and do so over a container large enough to hold both cups at once.

Yes, it is warm enough to heat water as we put a pot of water on it to put mosture in the air. Happy with it.

Yes. Absolutely! It's good for one slight boil in hot water. It works pretty good for a brief moment, then definitely needs replacing.

I've used very warm water and it is fine. It is medium to heavy vinyl so it could probably handle pretty hot water. Don't know about boiling water.

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

It does not say that it will on the box. With the carrier being made of a plastic material, I'm not sure that it would hold hot water.

I use it to water livestock but based on the construction, I don't think there would be any problems with hot water.

No. This is not recommended. I did it once and the teapot survived, but I won't try again. It does keep hot water warm for a long time.

I don't think hot water would work well in it. It's insulated with a rubber material. I'm not sure but I can imagine it melting? I would try a reusable microwavable heating pad instead.

Have never tried filling with water, but doubt it would hold much. The collapsible feature is done with a spring loaded cylindrical support structure and does not appear to support any compressive load from filling with water.

Yes, it is strong enough. It is galvanized tin and I think it would work fine. It reminds me of the wash tubs grandma had with her wringer washer. Well made!

You can pull hot water but I don't think there would be enough pressure to use as a shower.
