Full details
The Laken Futura Thermo Flask in Green is designed for individuals who need to reliably keep beverages at a specific temperature for extended periods, whether it's a hot drink on a cold day or a chilled beverage during warmer weather. Its primary benefit is superior insulation, maintaining cold for up to 24 hours and hot for up to 12 hours. A potential caveat is that achieving maximum cold performance may benefit from the addition of ice cubes.

Troubleshooting
Flask is not keeping drinks as cold/hot as expected.
Ensure the flask was pre-heated or pre-chilled effectively before filling. For cold drinks, adding ice cubes directly to the beverage will significantly improve duration. Make sure the lid is screwed on tightly.
Difficulty opening or closing the lid.
Check for any debris around the threads of the flask opening or the lid. If the flask is very full, especially with carbonated drinks, a slight release of pressure might be needed. Ensure the lid is properly aligned before screwing.
Water leakage from the lid.
Verify that the lid is fully tightened. Inspect the seal on the lid for any damage or debris. Ensure the flask is not overfilled, leaving adequate space below the threads.
Metallic taste from the beverage.
This is uncommon with food-grade stainless steel. Ensure the flask is thoroughly cleaned and dried. If the issue persists after several uses and proper cleaning, contact customer support.
Exterior condensation.
This indicates a failure in the vacuum insulation. Ensure the flask has not been dropped or damaged. If condensation is present, the insulation may be compromised, and replacement might be necessary.
