Can it hold hot water ?

How hot are you referring to? If you were draining your water heater, I imagine 130 degrees might be ok. Boiling water I would never subject plastic to, unless the item is food grade. Hot tap water should be fine. It's a good sturdy bucket.

Yes, I carry hot tap water in it to thaw my bird bath every morning when the weather is freezing.

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!

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.

Yes--I probably wouldn't put boiling water in it, but we used warmed water in it a couple of times when we needed/wanted hotter water.

Yes. I use mine just for water and it holds the cool temperature for quite awhile.

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.

Yes you can put hot liquids in it. I use mine for home brewing and often use it for sparge water at 170°F

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 actually engineered to hold hot water and I read that many have put it in their sleeping bag! It does NOT leak!

Never tried putting hot water in it and would not advise it. It is too delicate

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.

The product is made of a hard plastic, so it probably could hold hot tea and not compromise the material. That being said, it would be very hot to the touch. You would be better off searching for a double-walled glass.

Absolutely not. The exterior stays cool even with boiling water. Hot drinks stay that way for longer than with a ceramic mug though, so be aware of that.

Yes it produces enough hot water for an average shower. Mine does a great job

Not if you want it hot. We used it for a hot water urn and the water was lukewarm.

Yes, definitely. I fill mine with hot tap water. I love it. I do have a cover that I had from my old one that broke that I put on it so I don't know how hot it feels without the cover.

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.
