    My Costco had the Stanley steel lunch box with a 25oz vacuum bottle combo for around $40-50 a couple of years ago, I've been kicking myself for not picking one up, of course they were sold out when I went back a couple days later to get one.

    That's a good combo right there. But I think that's still available online. Not sure if it's that cheap any more or not.

    The best price I can find for the Stanley lunch box is $58 CAD incl shipping ($45US). At that price I'm tempted to go with the L.May 12" Miner's Lunchbox, which is a rather iconic piece of gear here in Canada. I worked underground in Sudbury at Craig and Onaping Depth mines for a while a few years back and these were the standard with the miner's there, and have been for years.

    Man, that's really cool. Just spent some time on the website reading about them. If I were you, being Canadian, I'd go with one of them. I like the bolt on seat you can put on it.

    Idiot that I am, I've owned the one-handed small thermos for like two years before realizing g that the shut off valve system unscrews for super easy cleaning. Duh.

    As long as coffee still comes out why would it need cleaning?

    I'll be picking one of those up.

    Never even seen one of them. But I'm off to order one now if I can find one.

    Appears they are not available until March. I'm going to get one. Wish the handle would lay flat though. I don't get that??

    I need that bigger stanley lunch box. I don't seem to get a cooler for work to last me more than a year

    They are showing in stock on the Stanley-pmi web store, and on Amazon.com. It's a bit strange as their FB page says the Master Series won't be released until March, but their website shows reviews, one going back two weeks.

    I definitely don't like the handle on the large one...I wonder if it's removable?
