Stanley Classic Legendary Vacuum Bottle, 1.1 qt
Stanley
Classic Legendary Vacuum Bottle with Handle, 1.1 qt
A legendary buy-once steel bottle with a small but real plastic footprint at the pour point. Replaceable parts and a take-back program earn it strong end-of-life marks.
The hundred-year-old steel thermos design: double-wall vacuum insulated 18/8 stainless body with an insulated lid that doubles as a cup. The twist-and-pour stopper and cup liner are plastic, which is what keeps this off a 1.
