Airpot Coffee Carafe for Keeping Hot - 85 OZ/ 2.5L Coffee Dispenser with Pump - Insulated Stainless Steel thermal carafe for Hot Drinks Water Tea Chocolate - Hot Beverage Dispenser for Parties

I've only had this dispenser for a couple of weeks, but so far it seems very good. I use it to keep the coffee that I brew in the morning warm all day. It does a pretty good job. It does not have the thermal qualities of a Yeti, but it's better than the other thermal dispensers and carafes that I have tried. To help it keep the coffee warmer longer, it helps to fill it with hot water and then empty it before adding the hot coffee. I usually buy a similar dispenser from Walmart for about half the price, but the plastic pump part in the lid cracks within a year or two and then I'd have to buy another. This one has better pumping action than the Walmart one, but doesn't keep the coffee as hot. The Walmart has a glass inside and this one is steel. That being said, I still like it better the other ones I've tried. I hope the pump will last. If it is still going strong after a couple of years, I'll update my review. So far I would recommend it and don't think anyone would be disappointed with this product.Update 1-24-18Mine is still working well. I noticed that the advertising says it will keep liquid hot 24 hours. I'm wondering if this is a new improved version because my carafe only keeps my coffee hot about 4 hours. I make coffee at about 7:30 am and by noon it is only luke warm. If they did improve it with insulation similar the Yeti products, I would be willing to buy the new version. If anyone knows the answer to this, please post. If they did not improve it with better insulation, I would say the claim to keep liquids hot for 24 hours would be false advertising.Update 6-21-18After using this daily (about a year and 3 months) for our morning coffee, the pump started to get weak. It would take about 12 pumps ormore to fill a coffee cup. I replaced it with the same model and now it only takes 2 pumps to fill a coffee cup. I noticed the instructions state to fill it with hot water first before using it to keep your coffee hot for as long as possible.Update 7-15-18I am happy to say that they have improved the thermal qualities with this new model. After pouring hot coffee into this new model, the outside remains cool. On the old model the outside would be warm after filling putting hot liquid in it. My coffee now stays warm throughout the day. I would definitely recommend this product now.Update 9-5-19After using this new improve version for a little over a year, it stopped keeping the hot coffee warm. When I fill it with hot coffee at about 7 am, by about 10:30 am the coffee is only luke warm. Also I always fill it with hot water first while the coffee is being brewed so that the inside of the airpot is already warm. The only thing I can think of for it to lose it thermal qualities, is that somehow the inside seal got broken. Anyways, I liked the way it worked up until now, so I decided to buy a new one in hopes that it will work the way this one did for the first year. Just a little disappointed that it didn't last longer.Update 6-1-20The carafe I bought on 9-5-19 would keep the coffee hot all day until about 5 pm, but even then it would still be warm. On 5-11-20 it stopped keeping the coffee hot. By about 2 pm, it is already cold. This is the 3rd one that I have bought and they all have the same problem. They work great at keeping the coffee hot all day for several months and then all of a sudden the coffee is only luke warm by noon. What happens to these coffee pots that cause them to lose their thermal qualities?I emailed my concerns to the vendor and they immediately responded that they thought I had a lemon and sent me a replacement. The replacement works great, but I wonder for how long. The two previous ones on bought kept their thermal qualities for between 9 - 15 months and then lost it. I am very impressed with the customer service for this product and would recommend it. I just can't understand how it can lose its ability to keep liquids hot after being used for a period of time. Should you have a similar problem, don't hesitate to reach out to their customer service. They were super with me.

I've been using this airpot for one year, and it works great.So far, I've only used it for hot liquids, and it keeps them hot for a remarkably long time, saving a lot of time during my morning routine.It's also easy to disassemble for cleaning. The included brush, while not exceptional, does its job adequately.My only minor complaint is the rotational base. I don't personally need this feature and sometimes find it a bit annoying, although I must admit it rotates quite smoothly!One other point to note is that the stainless steel surface tends to show stains quite easily.Overall, I consider this a great product that functions precisely as described and perfectly fits my needs.

I’ve been using this big thermos daily, and it truly delivers. Whether I fill it with coffee in the morning or iced tea in the afternoon, it keeps the temperature just right for hours—literally all day. I’ve even left coffee in it overnight, and it was still warm the next morning!The capacity is great—plenty for long drives or full workdays. The lid seals tightly, no leaks at all, and the wide mouth makes it easy to pour and clean. The handle is sturdy, and it fits well in my truck’s cup holder (a big plus for me).This thermos has quickly become my go-to for everything from camping trips to daily commutes. Solid, reliable, and does exactly what it’s supposed to.✅ Keeps hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold✅ No leaks✅ Large capacity✅ Easy to clean and carryHighly recommend!

I really wish I could have found one of these in a store, but I had to order it online. No store seemed to carry a large thermal liquid dispenser. I bought this to take to a youth football game to store hot chocolate for my 10yo cheerleading team. The girls really appreciated having a hot beverage to keep their bodies warmed up on a frigid game day. I made a powdered hot chocolate mix and transferred it to the dispenser about 2 hours before the game began.What I liked - attractive, stainless steel exterior; no assembly required, just clean and use right out of the box; the pot is big and holds much more than expected; nice handle for carrying; it’s very easy to pump out liquids; kept hot chocolate hot for several hours. The hot chocolate was still warm when I emptied it hours after the game; the exterior stays cool even if liquids inside are boiling; the pump straw was easy to clean and could be soaked in hot soapy water and rinsed with ease.What I didn’t like - the exterior stainless steel can be hard to keep clean and shows spots easily. I cleaned off water spots with some windex. It’s not completely fool proof when using. I managed to pinch my fingers when pumping liquids the first time. Be careful where your fingers are! Although this lever style is easier when dispensing liquids compared to button style hot pots, little fingers can get pinched badly! It hurts so bad! It’s tricky trying to figure out how to pour hot liquid into the tall, but narrow mouthed pot without spilling or getting burned. I scooped liquid in a large, glass measuring cup with a spout and poured into the pot. Maybe practice makes perfect? This pot is also tricky to get cleaned. While I’m trying to dump out soapy water, the attached lid is threatening to clamp shut on my fingers as I turn the thing upside down in my standard sized sink. It’s so tall I’m not able to dump it sideways. I wish the lid could be fully removed to make cleaning easier.; It can be pretty heavy when filled to capacity.The only feature I’m not so sure about is there is a lazy Susan feature on the bottom. Seems like it would be a nicer feature one would enjoy, but I’m worried it will rotate while I’m trying to use it. I’m also worried it will crack or break, leaving the bottom unsteady if that ever happens down the road. I’m also not sure if it’s leak proof. I had to keep the pot upright between my legs as we drove to our location, just in case.

It keeps liquids piping hot . It’s also good with cold liquids . Good product.
