Temperature after 6 hours
The main property of a thermos is to maintain the temperature of the liquid poured into it. Accordingly, the key parameter of efficiency is not so much the case material or some of its heat-insulating marketing chips, but the value of the water temperature after a certain period of time. So manufacturers, confident in the quality of their products, are happy to share their achievements. The temperature value after 6 hours shows how many degrees the boiling water poured into the thermos (98 °C) will cool down at an ambient temperature of about 20 °. And values of more than 80 ° can be considered very worthy.

Temperature after 24 hours
The main property of a thermos is to maintain the temperature of the liquid poured into it. Accordingly, the key parameter of efficiency is not so much the case material or some of its heat-insulating marketing chips, but the value of the water temperature after a certain period of time. So manufacturers, confident in the quality of their products, are happy to share their achievements. The temperature value after 24 hours shows how many degrees the boiling water poured into the thermos will cool (98 °C) at an ambient temperature of about 20 °. And with values of more than 50 °, a thermos can be considered one that
keeps the temperature for a long time.
Carrying handle
The special
handle for convenience of carrying of a thermos. The design of such a handle can be different: for example, in ordinary thermoses and thermo mugs (see "Type") it is usually installed on the side, in food thermoses and jugs — from above (and is made collapsible). The handle can be a structural element of both the thermos itself and its cover (see below). In addition, the small carrying strap that some models are equipped with is also considered a handle in this case (but the shoulder strap does not count, see below).
Anyway, holding a thermos by the handle is usually more convenient and safer than by the smooth body, especially when it comes to a large-capacity model.
Shoulder strap
The presence in the design of the thermos of
a special belt, which allows you to comfortably carry the container on your shoulder. This function is usually found in large-capacity models, primarily food ones (see "Type"): it is much easier to carry a weighty thermos in this way than in your hands, and it's more convenient — your hands themselves remain free. Most often, the shoulder strap is attached to the thermos itself, however, in some models, it may be part of the complete cover (see below).
