Drink Pod Vacuum Insulated Flask, Stainless Steel, Satin, 200ml

The Drink Pod is ultimately one of those near-perfect designs that you chance upon only a few times every year. It performs the simple task of keeping a mug-sized amount of beverage hot, can be used as a mug itself to drink straight from the flask, but also is pourable if you wish to drink from a mug or a cup. The stopper fits tightly and is leak proof, the flask keeps a 70C liquid hot for at least 8 hours without difficulty (yes like a nerd I've tested it with a thermometer) and with a removable plastic flange at the top of the flask it is very easy to clean.The metal is tough enough to withstand mild knocks while outside and the stainless steel is of sufficient quality to withstand tarnish and staining to a good level.All-in-all its a really good, effective little cup/flask for those heading outdoors and for me combines well with a small Jetboil stove to keep me in hot Tea and Coffee throughout a strenuous day out in the hills.

I travel by train quite a lot for work and have been looking for this kind of flask for some time - one that has all the qualities of a traditional flask but the convenience of an insulated mug.It's solid stainless steel - very cool looking - but fairly lightweight. Drinks stay hot for a good few hours and crucially it is watertight so can sit on it's side in my workbag without soaking anything.What I really like (and the critical deciding factor for me) is that once the top is unscrewed, you can sip coffee from it as you would with a cup. I wouldn't want to be pouring my coffee into a plastic cup whilst on a crowded commuter train and so the Drink Pod ticks all the boxes for me.It has a great look to it, stylish and compact - fitting easily into my hand - and is no bigger than a compact umbrella so will slot into those side pockets of travel bags that are designed for small water bottles.In terms of quantity, it holds 200ml, which doesn't sound a lot. In reality this is the amount you'd get in a large cup or small mug so it's not a massive reserve of a drink, but a bigger volume would need a bigger flask so it depends what you want. The convenience of a hot drink is worth the compromise and considering the £2+ you'd pay for a coffee at the station, this is a win-win for me.I love it and enthusiastically recommend it to you.

This is a neat, good quality flask with a removable ceramic lip that makes drinking out of it much nicer than a metal edge. It keeps drinks really hot and holds slightly less than a mug of liquid. It doesn't leak but when you open it you need to hold it away from you because there is a small residue of liquid held in the lid. That's the reason I have it four stars but that's no problem once you're aware of it. I would recommend it and would buy it again.

Brilliant, fantastic! Keeps my coffee hot for longer than any other flask, easy to use and to clean and just the right size for me. I love it!

I bought one of these a couple of years ago and it has had a lot of use. Never leaked, stays hot etc. It is just the right size for me (200ml) so about a cup full of drink. Very easy to clean.My wife started using mine as most of hers (other brands) leaked at some point. Then she used it all the time so I bought two more.Fantastic item, really convenient to use.

It leaks!! It's such a shame, because it's the perfect size. But there is a product flaw. So the lid screws tight, and it won't leak when it's in a bag or pocket, but when you pour it somehow leaks and when you drink from it you get coffee everywhere. Please fix it because it's the perfect size!!!

What a great little flask. I used today for the first time, out on the golf course in pretty cold conditions, icy air, temp 2-3 degrees C, and my coffee stayed hot for over 3 hours, warm for another 2. All others seem to keep hot drinks hot in warm conditions, not near freezing, so this little flask is perfect. If I had topped up in the pro shop halfway round, I’d have had piping hot coffee for my entire round - amazing!

Not tested yet, but it's a very nice flask that looks and feels good quality.
