How does this compare with the Thermos Nissan 16-oz bottle?

After careful consideration of both items, this differs from the Thermos Nissan bottle in which how the lid is designed. This design has two tops, you unscrew the top lid, which also serves as a cup (the selling point for me), then you unscrew another cap to pour the beverage. Also, note that cleaning appears to be easier, then the TN bottle, which has a smaller opening. Although, this item has been promoted for beverage use, a week ago, I actually put a can of progress chicken soup in it, with no problems, and it was still warm 6 hours later. If you prefer the convenient access of one uniformed lid, then perhaps the TN bottle is good for you. Just consider the ease of cleaning the product as well. On a final note, I can voucher for the Thermos Nissan Stainless King 16-Ounce Compact Bottle, Midnight Blue because I own it and beverages stay hot/warm for hours and it's a breeze cleaning it. I hope this helps, if you have any other specific questions, I will be happy to answer any questions.

Yes, I have both and I just checked and they appear to be the same size mouth on these two thermos food jars.and the 16 oz and 24 oz screw top appear to be interchangeable

I don't own both, so I can't compare, but I *believe* the primary difference is the handle and stem being brass or plastic, and the very marginal difference in cost. The bottle is more than enough for many medium sized cars in one go; you put a car wash concentrate in the bottle - diluted say 50/50 with water (or more), and that mix is metered into the flowing hose water slowly. Thus you don't change the bottle's size, you just change the mixing ratio between the bottle and the hose flow. Regardless, one bottle of soap (or mostly soap) will last more than one car easily.

I am tempted to just answer "hours", but of course "it depends" (sorry!). I think if you just pour from a freshly brewed pot of coffee into this awesome Nissan-Thermos stainless-steel mug, you should easily get at least 2 or 3 hours of hot coffee. Personally I drink 14 oz. of coffee much faster than that! But the real trick to this double-walled, vacuum construction is to PRE-heat the cup! First, run hot water from your tap (as scalding as you want) and then pour it into the cup, close it, and set it aside while you make your coffee. I assume the vacuum (?) stainless-steel gets heated up. Then, when you dump out the hot water moments before you pour your hot coffee in, it's almost as if you have a heated thermos! Using this method before a 2 hour commute I don't even notice a decrease in temperature at all. It seems to me that it will then stay hot 4 or 5 hours or even more! Obviously I am a huge fan of this "Nissan" Thermos brand.

This wouldn't be a good option. My oldest son uses a thermos I got him and he loves it. Even after six hours its piping hot. Search for Thermos Stainless King 16-Ounce Food Jar by Nissan 1,002 customer reviews List Price: $39.48 Price: $23.99 You Save: $15.49 (39%)

Of all the French Presses here on Amazon, my favorite is the little known "Nissan Thermos." It is miscategorized by Amazon as a thermos, so doesn't come up in the French Press searches, but for the price and design, blows away the glass and plastic presses. The listing comes up under Thermos Nissan 34, but then you have to read the sub title (gourmet coffee press). Enjoy!

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. Thermos Stainless Steel King 24 Ounce Food, Midnight Blue it holds more food and costs less than the one you're looking to buy.

Hi. I do not recommend it because the material is not very thick and it may be deformed. You may try the Thermos vacuum insulated stainless steel bottle.

Your welcome! Good luck in your decision. My husband and I only use Nissan Thermos mugs.

I think the stainless steel definitely keeps the liquid hotter longer. Plus it cleans up easier/better and doesn't hold onto flavors like the plastic ones tend to.

The bottle itself is only 8.5 inches tall. The extra 1.3 inches is the added height of the top cap. I've never had a thermos that kept my coffee this hot. Actually put an ice cube in it so I can drink it on the way to work. It is a bit top heavy and narrow for many cup holders but at the same time will likely fit in most small cup holders in a car or bus.

I orded the thermos because I had one that was that looked just like it and was amazing. The new one must be made by Nissan because it is nowhere as good as the old one. same design but not the qualily

Yes, but Nissan here has nothing to do with the car maker Nissan, you know. Thermos is a brand name of the Japanese manufacturer called Taiyo Nippon Sanso, or Taiyo Nissan.

This is not an insulation or thermos type bottle, so it would not keep liquids hot or cold for very long. It is basically a water bottle, and it works very well for that. No leaks, no rust, no worries about chemicals leaching from plastic, and no bad taste whatsoever. I've been using the same two bottles for years now to keep water in the car, and even the outside stills looks good.

My order came with the AC-16. We've traveled literally 1,000s of miles using it off DC power in the car and using the AC adapter at night in motels. Except for massive condensation inside on the bottom (lots if high-humidity travel) we've been delighted. (We did figure out that the cooler is easied to open & close if you attach split-ring key rings to the sipper pulls, FWIW.)

This is a 16oz travel mug - made of thermal plastic. I know plastic doesn't sound like a quality item, but I absolutely LOVE it. We have 6 of these - and we use them every day. In 3 yrs of use, we have never had a leaky lid, they are diswasher safe and unlike so many travel mugs, the lid doesn't have a lip that's too deep. We have other mugs which have deeper lids and the liquid tends to get away from you. I've never seen this mug in any size other than the 16oz.

Yes, they are wider than the original contigo 24 oz non-insulated bottle. These also work great, I live in Phoenix and it has been 105 - 110 degrees regularly and I'll leave my water bottle in the car for hours at a time and come back and the water is still cold.
