Zojirushi Vacuum Insulation

What is Vacuum Insulation?

Vacuum means the air between the outer and inner layers of stainless steel has been removed to create a vacuum insulation. It blocks heat from transferring through air (conduction). Zojirushi vacuum insulation also features a copper or aluminum layer tightly wrapped around the outside of the inner stainless steel layer. This copper or aluminum layer reflects heat (radiation), further minimizing the temperature change of your drink. Lastly, heat is blocked from escaping through the opening (convection) with a tightly closed lid.

Great, but not worth the money
5 Stars
Great, but not worth the money
I've become somewhat obsessed with insulated food jars over the past few weeks. I have no idea why. This is my 6th food jar, and all have been different brands. Most have been around 24oz, while one was 18 oz, and then this one, which is 17.So one thing I do notice is this jar feels and looks higher quality than my other jars. Not substantially so, because I think the Maxso and the Stanley are close, but this thing looks super nice. The polished still interior is beautiful and the handle feels great.Like every other food jar I bought, I put boiling water in it and took temperature every hour or two (or eight, when I go to bed).Simply put, this performed better than the ~$15 Hydrapeak 18oz (Zojirushi was at 122 after 14 hours compared to 104 for the Hydrapeak) and slightly better than the Hydra Gear 25oz I bought from TJ Maxx for $11 (was at 118 after 14 hours) But it did worse than all my 24oz jars. The Maxso and Stanley did the best at around 140-145 at this point, and the DaCool was around 135.Crucially, all of these jars are cheaper than the Zojirushi. My recommendation is to purchase the Maxso. It was $5+ cheaper than the Zojirushi, looks and feels REALLY nice (very close in quality to the Zojirushi), has a built in bowl and spoon, and has much more capacity despite not being much physically bigger.This is a really nice food jar! That's why I gave it 5 stars. I just think it's worth spending less for something better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Keeps My Soup Hot for 7 Hours or More!
Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2023
I use mine to bring hot soups/stews, for lunch and I’ve yet to have a cold meal. If you don’t want to deal with a microwave while at work this is what you need. It keeps my food HOT for at least 7 hours during my 12 hour day without fail. I can prep in the morning, put it into this container and have hot food as soon as I take the lid off. It fits easily into my lunch bag or back pack for transport and travel. The lid design prevents leaking and it’s easy to clean. I don’t put mine into the dishwasher so I can’t speak to using that method, just a little dish soap on a bottle stick sponge and hot water is all it takes. This is a great product and I’ve been very happy with it.
