A loyal friend of a tourist, fisherman and hunter, a reliable keeper of hot and cold drinks and food, extremely unpretentious in care - all this is about a type of Dewar vessel. Or, simply, a thermos.
Due to the huge variety of offers, choosing a quality thermos that will keep hot things hot and cold things cold for as long as possible is not an easy task.
We solved it this way: we read reviews of popular models on Yandex.Market, studied authoritative sites and compiled a top 10 list of the best thermoses of 2020.
10. Hangzhou EXCO Industrial MC180 (1.8 l)
- body material: plastic
- flask material: glass

The cheapest option on our list of thermoses that hold temperature better. But in this case, "cheap" and "poor quality" cannot be equated.
The Chinese product has a convenient handle so that you don't have to put your palm to the body of the thermos, holds almost 2 liters and keeps the heat for 8 hours. What else do you need from such dishes?

According to the "Quality Mark", the domestic brand Amet has the best recognition on the Russian market. And it is difficult to argue with this, even the author of the article has an Amet thermos, which has served faithfully for several years.
For going to work and school, Amet Premier KN is an ideal option. It is made of durable and thick steel, perfectly holds heat for the 6 hours specified by the manufacturer and even longer (up to 12 hours), the lid is tightly screwed on, the body does not heat up. And the price is quite affordable.

- body material: steel
- keeps heat up to 24 hours

This thermos from a Japanese brand (made in Thailand) has a handle on the body and a removable strap for greater ease of carrying. It is quite compact for its volume and has no foreign odors.
The advantages of using Zojirushi SJ-SD12 also include:
- wide neck,
- long heat retention time,
- a hermetic lid with a convenient opening button,
- as well as a presentable appearance.
The flask coating is made of Teflon, which makes it easy to clean and the drink does not come into contact with metal, keeping its taste unchanged. So if you are thinking about which thermos is better to buy, but you do not like Chinese and Russian models, we recommend choosing Zojirushi SJ-SD12.
Pros: light weight, holds heat exactly as long as stated by the manufacturer, Teflon coating of the flask (however, this can also be considered a disadvantage - more on that below), reliable design.

- body material: steel
- flask material: steel
- keeps heat up to 20 hours
- keeps cold for up to 20 hours
- Features: vacuum, cup lid
- dimensions: 29.80 x 8.90 cm
This model has a classic design with a small hole and a cup-lid. On the one hand, this means that you do not have to carry an extra container to drink hot tea or coffee. But on the other hand, drinking on the go will not be easy, as in a moving car. To do this, you had to find a place where you can put the cup-lid, then pour the drink into it through the small neck of the thermos.
But this inconvenience is accompanied by exceptional insulation of both hot and cold drinks.
One of the advantages of STANLEY thermoses is their high impact resistance. Of course, you are unlikely to hit or kick the thermos with your feet, but the possibility of it accidentally falling cannot be discounted either.
STANLEY Classic is made of wear-resistant steel and plastic elements that make the body lighter and will not crack under high temperatures. It is also dishwasher safe.
Pros: beautiful, comfortable, well made.
Cons: the price is slightly higher than similar models.

This thermos looks so attractive that it is not embarrassing to give it as a gift. The product is very pleasant to use and has a convenient strap for carrying in your hand or hanging, for example, on a backpack.
The Zoku lid closes with a satisfying click. When you hear that sound, it means the lid is completely closed, so you won't lose a drop of what's inside.

Although the manufacturer claims that the NY-1000-2 retains heat for up to 19 hours, it is being modest. In reviews, users write that the liquid in the thermos remained warm even after 20-30 hours.
