FAQs
How long will the Thermos Eclipse flask keep liquids hot or cold?
The flask will keep liquids hot for up to 12 hours and cold for up to 24 hours, thanks to its glass vacuum insulation.
Is the Thermos Eclipse flask dishwasher safe?
No, the Thermos Eclipse flask is handwash only. Using a dishwasher may damage the vacuum seal and exterior finish.
Can I use the flask for carbonated beverages?
It is not recommended to use the flask for carbonated beverages, as pressure can build up inside and potentially cause the stopper to dislodge forcefully.
What is the capacity of this flask?
This specific model has a capacity of 500ml.
How does the twist and pour stopper work?
The twist and pour stopper allows you to pour liquids by twisting the top part of the stopper to release the seal, without needing to remove the stopper entirely. Twist it back to the locked position to seal.
What are the dimensions of the 500ml flask?
While specific dimensions are not provided, the 500ml capacity generally indicates a compact size suitable for most bags and cup holders.
Does the glass interior affect the taste of beverages?
No, the glass interior is designed to be non-reactive and maintain the pure taste of your beverages, without imparting any metallic or plastic flavors.
Troubleshooting
Flask not keeping liquids hot/cold for stated duration.
Ensure the twist-and-pour stopper is fully closed and tightened. Check for any visible damage to the flask body or stopper seal. Pre-heat or pre-chill the flask with hot or cold water for a few minutes before filling with your desired beverage to improve initial temperature retention.
Difficulty pouring from the twist-and-pour stopper.
Ensure the stopper is correctly aligned and twisted to the 'pour' position. If it feels stiff, ensure no debris is obstructing the mechanism. Gently rotate the stopper back and forth to loosen if necessary.
Odors or residue inside the flask.
Wash thoroughly with warm, soapy water. For stubborn odors, try a mixture of baking soda and water, let it sit for a few hours, then rinse well. Ensure the flask is completely dry after cleaning.
