Condensation issues? I was thinking of getting a double walled glass thermos for this reason, but they're all so fragile. This one seems durable.

My son uses this daily in school. There is condensation as there would be with any other glass container with cold contents but it is mostly contained by the rubber cover. It is durable.

This is not double walled, so no condensation issues. I love these. I bought three and keep them in the fridge with filtered water so I can grab one quickly when headed out the door.

I tend to keep my water at room temperature but I went ahead and added ice to my larger bottle to watch it. It fogged up within minutes and several minutes later began to create minor droplets. Several minutes after that, I noticed that the rubber sleeve was wet on the outside as well. So yea - if you add ice then you'll have condensation issues. I've never had issues with room temperature water though.

Aside from the various other quality issues with this bivy, yes, there was also a fair amount of condensation inside when I used mine. The outside temperature was in the mid to high 30's F, so a little above freezing. The condensation wasn't bad enough to drip down on me, but the inside of the bivy was definitely moist. As I indicated, there are several other quality issues with this product, so I would recommend skipping it altogether and going with something else. The clips also broke on mine the first night out. The price may seem right, but trust me, you're going to wish you bought something else.

I would recommend that you get the unit really cold and the drinks really cold before you put them in. Add ice packs around the drinks. The Thermos ones work really great for this purpose.

I have the 40oz and 21oz (both coated), neither one gets cold to touch when I pour cold water in. After sitting for a while with Ice and water, the outside does feel a bit cooler then room temperature but never cold. It sounds like it may have a defect.

No condensation, no leaking, all good. They are fragile; I bumped one by accident with a spoon and it cracked. Love the 8 ounce and the little ones for liqueurs.

I dearly wish you had asked this two weeks ago. I received my Thermos and the liner was pulverized. I tried desperately to find a new liner, but they are no longer made. You have to buy a whole new Thermos. So I finally threw away a perfectly good brand new container and pump assembly. I hope your note goes out to all who order your Thermos. Some of them will certainly arrive with broken glass liners. People need to know that SOMEONE can use the parts. I REALLY HATE throwing away good stuff. I tried giving it away to no avail. It SEEMED worthless without the liner. SORRY! Ivan

Yes. I believe it is condensation from the lid. I didn't realize that there was water in the heating element area until I had water on my counter top. If you have a solution, let me know.

I didn't find this happen to me. It's double walled so the temperature didn't transfer to the outside of the cup

I had the same concern - couldn't figure out why the thing didn't work as a traditional "commuter" mug. It isn't. Think old-school thermos. Unscrew the top and drink or pour. And be careful if driving - the liquid stays hot.

I called Thermos manufacturing company and they sent me a replacement parts for the lids. I explained what happened and they sent me another lid for my travel mug. They were very nice about it. I told them that I didn't want to waste a perfectly good container just because the lid was damaged. So they were very generous and sent me another one, free of charge.

I read in at least one of the reviews that someone had contacted thermos and they offered replacement seals. I've thought of trying to get a spare set of them just in case the need ever arises. I'm going to google "thermos" and see if I can track them down :)

I use the Thermos frequently. I have only dropped it one time, and it was empty when I dropped it. My coffee still remains hot, so I guess the Thermos suffered no damage. Hope this helps.

I returned it :( I don't remember why. My thermos is best ever. Made by thermos.

I have one in a refrigerator right now. I was having a lot of condensation in this refrigerator, so I put one in on the bottom. It's been there a few weeks and seems to help a lot.

Yes it is double walled- I purchase it as a gift and had to ask the recipient. She has not had any issues with condensation.

the answer is absolutely yes! The unit has a double wall which is great for keeping items colder for longer without all of the condensation. From what I have read and research you never want to freeze the container under any circumstances. I am told it will ruin the double wall lining, but all in all I have truly enjoyed my growler for personal beverage consumption for sure. The main thing is the price of this unit is far below street retail pricing

Well Ron, I live in California so the most weather it has had to hold up against is some wind and a little bit of rain, both of which it handled just fine. It does however build up condensation and drip on whatever you have stored inside. Hasn't been a big problem for me but it should be considered. I hope this helps.
