Amazon.com Review
Well-respected Zojirushi brand makes durable, reliable products. This thermal carafe is no exception, with a classic, simple design that keeps coffee and other hot beverages hot for hours. A button you press with your thumb while gripping the handle opens the carafe for serving, doing away with the need to partly unscrew the lid for pouring. An indicator on the lid tells you if the carafe is open and ready to serve, or closed. When open, the outer rim supports coffee filter holders for brewing coffee directly into the carafe. --Cynthia Nims

 Zojirushi Premium 2.01-Quart Thermal Carafe Nightmare November 19, 2002

I purchased this product because I wanted a thermal carafe that would hold more than run of the mill carafes you find at your local discount store. At first the carafe performed beautifully. But after a few months use, I noticed that the stopper top mechanism was sticking. This is the pushbutton device that opens the stopper to dispense the liquid and closes at the touch of a button when you are done pouring and want to close the carafe to keep the heat in. I consulted the instruction sheet that accompanied the item and there were instructions for cleaning the stopper top to prevent the sticking. I followed the directions carefully but this did not cure the problem. So I went to Zojirushi's website and left a message for Customer Support, detailing my problem. After several weeks and no answer, this morning I called Zojirushi's toll free Customer Support number. I got the shock of my life when I was informed that all non-electric Zojirushi products do not carry any sort of warranty! I couldn't believe what I was hearing, so I checked the paperwork that accompanied the product and, sure enough, there is no warranty whatsoever. I informed the Customer Support person that I would never, ever, buy another Zojirushi product again.
While the carafe does an excellent job of keeping hot beverages hot for long periods of time, the fact that you have to insert your fingernail into the mechanism to get the carafe to close speaks loudly of a design defect that Zojirushi knows about (why else would they print detailed instructions on correcting the problem that are included with all new purchases?) and refuses to correct. Never again for me for a Zojirushi product.

I read the reviews for this thermal carafe, and now I wonder if they were being paid to write that. I do not have a problem the the button sticking, yet. I bought it for my mother and she was ecstatic, until 11 AM. At 8 AM she poured boiling water into it and left it there untouched. At 11 AM she felt like another pot of tea but when she poured it out, it was only warm and you can't make tea with warm water. My mother doesn't lie, but she also can't drink anything hotter than warm, so I had to test it myself. I was so convinced by the person whose coffee was hot from 8 PM until 6 AM, but when I poured boiling water into it at 9 AM, it was already lukewarm 3 hours later. I do not recommend this for anyone who likes hot liquids, but it's great for those who like warm liquids.

I received this as a Father's day gift. I use a carafe everyday to keep coffee fresh. This carafe has a nice swivel bottom, push button dispenser and large capacity. The first time I used it after 3hrs the coffee was room temp. I emptied it and refilled it the next morning and low and behold 3 hrs later it was cold again. This product is nothing but a dud.

I have had this carafe & a larger version for 10 years & still am amazed at how long the coffee stays hot! If you want the liquid to stay hot even longer, pre-heat the carafe with hot tap water. I do this on colder mornings when I know I want the coffee to stay hot until later in the day. Even my picky, engineer, coffee addict of a husband who prefers lawsuit hot coffee says it works okay!

Ordered this carafe because I could not find a carafe in any retail store that fit my needs. I absolutely love this product. The size fits a large pot of coffee........and the coffee stays hot. I am so pleased.....I am going to order the same product for Christmas gifts....and may even buy a second for myself!
