Patagonia Capilenes. i can't compare it to anything else as these are the only ones i have used. they aren't really cheap. get them on sale when possible to save some money.

I thought this was about the thing you put drinks in?

And I did not know there were such varying quality thermos' that one is at odds on which to buy.

Without a doubt the best Thermos is this one:

I've used all sorts of different thermos's and this one just is amazing. I found out about it from a old co-worker that would fill it up one morning and sometimes have coffee left over the next day he would pour a cup and still have a little steam coming off the cup. And his was like 20 years old. This thing will laugh at a 12 hour shift.

Spoolin415 walks into a store. Curious about a shiny object, he asks, "What is that?"

The store clerk responds, "It's a thermos."

Spoolin415 then asks, "What does it do?"

The clerk says "It keeps hot things hot and cold things cold." So he buys one.

The next day, he brings it to work with him. His boss, also a dork, asks, "What is that shiny object?"

Spoolin415 replies "It's a thermos."

He asks, "What does it do?"

Spoolin415 says, "It keeps hot things hot and cold things cold."

He then asks, "What do you have in there?"

"Two cups of coffee and a popsicle."
