THERMOS FUNTAINER 12 Ounce Stainless Steel Vacuum Insulated Kids Straw Bottle, Blue Navy
Overview
The THERMOS FUNtainer 12oz is a stainless-steel, vacuum-insulated kids bottle designed for everyday school, daycare and short-trip use. At 12 ounces (≈355 mL), it’s sized for preschoolers through early-elementary children who need a compact, easy-to-carry bottle that still holds a useful amount of water. Double-wall vacuum insulation keeps drinks cold for up to 12 hours while the durable stainless-steel construction stands up to drops and rough play. The removable silicone straw with a hygienic flip cover and a soft-touch integrated carry handle make it easy and sanitary for kids to use. The bottle is BPA-free and dishwasher-safe, though the lid and straw are best cleaned by hand. Not for hot liquids.
