Product Details

Capacity: 14 oz
Size: 6 1/4" x 3 1/4"

Safety
A safe alternative to reusable plastic containers, the 14 oz Stainless Steel Vacuum Food Jar stainless steel construction will not leak harmful chemicals and is neutral to taste and smell. As plastic degrades through aging and wear & tear of washing, leaching of potentially harmful chemicals increases. Recent reports indicate that stainless steel reusable bottles and mugs are a safe option to plastic bottles and mugs. Read more about the dangers of using reusable plastic bottles and mugs here.

The HiVac vacuum insulation also keeps food fresher for longer, helping to eliminate the possibility of food spoiling over the day – ultimately making the food safer to eat.

Quality & Durability
The 14 oz Stainless Steel Vacuum Food Jar is constructed of double walled 18/8 stainless steel – lightweight and virtually indestructible. Comes with a full year warranty - avoid the cheap knockoffs.

Fact: stainless steel is durable, hygienic and environmentally friendly.

The stainless steel grade used in this product is highly durable and hygienic 18/8 or AISI Type 304 stainless steel. 18/8 (or 304) stainless steel properties include great resistance to chloride pitting, crevice corrosion and stress-corrosion cracking. What this equates to for consumers is a very durable material that offers long-term value. The easy cleaning ability of stainless also makes it the first choice for strict hygiene conditions, such as hospitals, kitchens, and other environments in which sanitation is a priority. 18/8 (or 304) stainless steel is a risk-free alternative to plastics that can leach potentially harmful toxins - such as Bisphenol A - during regular use, exposure to heat, and especially after cleaning.

Furthermore,18/8 or 304 stainless steel is a sustainable material, having a long service life, usability in a number of applications and is environmentally friendly. Stainless steel needs less maintenance and its hygienic qualities means that we do not have to use harsh cleaners to get a clean surface. There is little or nothing to dump into the drain that could have an environmental impact. Stainless steel is also 100% recyclable, meaning less waste in our landfills. In fact, over 50% of new stainless steel comes from old re-melted stainless steel scrap.

Manufacturing
The 14 oz Stainless Steel Vacuum Food Jars are manufactured in a certified factory partnered with The Walt Disney Company. Adhering to high International Labor Standards, the factory is annually monitored by auditors to ensure its compliance with The Walt Disney Company’s business and ethics standards, including child labor laws and applicable environmental regulations. Simply put, the 14 oz Stainless Steel Vacuum Food Jar are high-quality products that are safely made and built to last.

Design
Modern design and state-of-the-art vacuum chamber technology produces a consistent “high vacuum” for superior temperature retention. The exterior surface of the liner is coated with copper using an electrolysis method – this process efficiently insulates radiant heat and enhances thermal performance.

The airtight, insulated lid screws down tightly to lock in temperature and freshness. Compact and lightweight design is extremely durable and virtually unbreakable. In addition, the 14 oz Stainless Steel Vacuum Food Jar are easy to clean and naturally resist food odors and staining.

Sustainability
Replaces wasteful, single use plastic and paper containers, saving you money in the process. Great for packing a snack or lunch on the road, you can avoid the harmful use-and-toss containers handed out at fast food restaurants and stay healthier in the process.

Some additional reasons to consider this sustainable, eco-friendly product:
1. Built to last – ultimately helping you consume less over time
2. Another way to avoid plastic, a non-renewable resource
3. Made with fair wages paid and using fair labor practices
4. Recyclable

Care and Use A few tips for maintaining and getting the most out of our stainless steel thermal mugs, containers and bottles:

  • For maximum insulation efficiency: pre-heat or pre-cool your mug/bottle just prior to use, fill with hot/cold tap water, attach lid, let stand for 5 to 10 minutes and empty
  • After filling, cover the mug/bottle with the lid or top to increase thermal efficiency
  • Wash and rinse mug/bottle thoroughly after each use and thoroughly dry
  • We recommend avoiding the dishwasher for everyday cleaning. Simply use a soft cloth or moistened sponge with a mild dishwashing liquid to remove exterior dirt. Do not use bleach or cleaners containing chlorine to clean the mug/container/bottle. For periodic sterilization, using the dishwasher is considered OK.

    I was excited to get the aluminum "thermos" type container so that I could send my daughter to preschool w/ a hot lunch. The first time I washed it water got inside of it somehow & it leaked water, very annoying. It did not keep food hot but rather luke warm. Very disappointing. It went in the recycle bin.

    I like this thermos!

    by Terry R - 04/2008

    I like this thermos! I bought it to bring hot soup to work, without having to heat it up in an evil plastic container. And it works great! The 14oz. size is perfect for a generous, "adult" size serving of homemade soup. Just pour freshly boiled soup in the morning, and by lunch it will still be hot. Not piping hot mind you, but a perfect warm temp. Also I use it for bringing homemade oatmeal to work too. Freshly made oats in the morning will be really, piping hot by the time you finish your morning commute and get to your desk! The size is more than enough for a really huge serving too! My only advice: clean that thermos as soon as you're finished with breakfast/lunch. I've let it sit around till I get home and the interior can get stinky fast!

    Love this! I got this for my daughter to take to school for lunch and it keeps her food warm, it is a good size ... holds enough food and fits in her lunch box. I was so happy to find it as it opens up so much for us and my very picky non sandwich eating daughter.

    by danielle k - 09/2008

    I really like this my 5 yo has no problem opening and closing the bottle. We use it for hot lunches. It cleans easily even if you can not put it in the dishwasher. I do wish it had a lid that converted into a bowl, it is a little to deep for a young child to scoop food out. So I have to pack an extra bowl.

    by Judy K - 08/2008

    The thermos keeps food hot or cold extremely well. It is sturdy and washes easily in the dishwasher. My only suggestion would be to make the design shorter and wider at the mouth for easier filling of hot foods. My kids also have not yet tipped it over, but the shorter, wider design would be easier for my 5 y/o to eat from.

    Good size, keeps foods warm long enough for my needs (barely - needs to be warm for lunch at preschool). I REALLY wish the lid was a bowl, as now I have to pack a separate item. I might have been served better by getting a standard thermos...

    by barbara b - 09/2007

    I purchased the foam lunch bags, thermal bottles, and stainless steel water bottles for my children. All the items work well, are easy to clean, and the children have gotton used to them easily. The only suggestion I could make would be to vary the design of the lunch bags, or include solids in the large size. I have two boys who are older and while they love the stainless steel water bottle, they feel a little like they carry a purse when they carry the lunch bag.
