3. Strong and with a large capacity ZOJIRUSHI "Stainless Pot"

This stainless pot (1.0 L, 1.5 L, 1.9 L, all with an open price), characterized by a big handle and a massive design, is the kind of model that is used more often indoors than to carry around. Just holding the lock is enough to open the lid, and it is very easy to place the corresponding drink inside. When pouring the liquid out, you can hold the handle and push the lever with one hand at the same time, which makes it very convenient and safe. The vacuum thermos structure, which uses two layers of stainless steel, is very resistant to impact, and it does not break even if you put ice directly inside. It offers excellent heat and cold retaining properties. The wide mouth measures about 6.5 cm, which is very convenient for cleaning. It can also be used to drip coffee.
