In my opinion, Esbit offers some of the best food flasks available on the market. I have tried different brands, but I still most often choose Esbit. It's a purchase for the long term. I highly recommend it; the price fully matches the quality.
Esbit Food Jug 1 l - Olive Green
1 L food thermos Designed for transporting meals. Made of durable stainless steel, with a matte, non-slip coating on the outside for a secure grip, even with thick gloves.
Performs well on cold days during hiking, skiing or outdoor work. Thanks to its excellent insulation properties, it maintains both hot and cold temperatures. Perfect for keeping food warm in winter or cold in summer.
Wide mouth and lid-bowl
The 79 mm wide opening allows comfortable eating directly from the thermos. It also makes filling and cleaning easier. The inside is coated with a thin layer of silver with antibacterial properties, supporting hygiene. The lid can be used as a bowl, adding to the product's practicality.
safety valve button
The lid is equipped with a pressure release valve that should be pressed before opening. This allows excess pressure to escape—e.g., after storing hot food—significantly reducing the risk of sudden opening or contact with steam.

The Esbit food thermos is a great solution for trips, trekking, or for work and service – you can finally have something hot like soup or stew to eat. The thermos is solidly and simply made, the quality is flawless, and the price is favourable.
-
I bought this product as a gift, and I already know that the recipient is very satisfied. They especially praise the long heat retention time and the convenient vent button.
-
Excellent thermos – tested on holiday; soup poured for a weekend trip was still very warm after about 20 hours (I preheated the thermos with boiling water beforehand). Very convenient – easy to fill, empty and clean. The only downside is that the paint wears off and scratches appear when it is kept with hard objects. But the most important thing is that it works. I recommend it!
-
The thermos is really very good quality. The coating means it won't slip even from wet hands. I took the one-litre version and was worried it would be too big, but I was pleasantly surprised – the size is ideal for a single meal, and the thermos itself feels quite compact. Half a litre seems too little, more suitable for children or people with a very small appetite. I would buy it again without hesitation.
-
The thermos works excellently, but one comment – it doesn't have a full 1 litre capacity, at most 950 ml. However, that's a minor detail. For me, the amount is ideal – enough for a small meal for two people or a proper meal for one.
-
A capacious, aesthetically pleasing, well-made thermos. In addition, the shop offers free engraving. The rough surface makes it easier to hold even in gloves. The button for releasing the pressure prevents the stopper from getting stuck (not sure if it's easy to clean with regular rinsing). Overall, I'm satisfied with the purchase.
-
This is already my third flask. I will always buy it because it has never let me down. My previous one, despite six years of use, works flawlessly, although it now looks worn. Highly recommended! I even managed to keep food hot for 12 hours, which is why I'm ordering another one today.
-
The thermoses from this series are very aesthetic, comfortable and do not leak – I have also stored soups in them. They keep a high temperature for a very long time. Lunch made in the morning is still hot after 5–6 hours. I highly recommend them!
-
I bought this thermos with long bike tours in mind (about 50-150 km per day) and hiking trips. Even at -10°C, after a whole day, the food stays warm, which suits me very well. The pressure-release button is very practical. However, a downside is how easily the casing gets scratched.
-
The flask keeps hot meals warm for several hours. The wide opening lets you reach the bottom easily. The engraved lettering adds extra charm, and the rough surface makes it comfortable to hold.
-
Very good product, definitely worth buying—it keeps both hot and cold inserts for a long time. So far tested with a cold pack—all day at around 30 degrees, the insert remained cold.
-
Good flask. Top quality product.
-
The best thermos for lunches! It keeps the heat for a very long time.
-
The flask is great, for example for keeping soup for two people. In our case, it is also enough for a five-year-old. It doesn't leak, maintains temperature for a long time. It works in any season. I recommend it!
