Frequently Asked Questions
Is the FUNTAINER 10 oz food jar good for family picnics?
Yes. The 10 oz size fits easily into a picnic basket or cooler bag, and the vacuum insulation keeps hot pasta warm and cold fruit chilled for hours at a park or outdoor gathering.
Can I use this kids food jar on a road trip without it leaking in the car?
Yes. The push-button lid has a tight seal that resists leaks during car rides, and the durable stainless steel body handles the constant motion of a family road trip without denting or spilling.
Does the jar work for camping and outdoor lunches with kids?
Yes. Because the vacuum insulation does not need ice or a microwave, the FUNTAINER is ideal for campsite meals where you want soup to stay hot on a cool morning or yogurt to stay cold in the afternoon sun.
Is the 10 oz size portable enough for a childs hiking snack?
Yes. At only 4 oz empty, the jar is light enough for a small backpack or a parents daypack, and the 10 oz capacity holds enough oatmeal, trail mix yogurt, or warm soup for a junior hiker.
Will the stainless steel hold up to outdoor use like sandy beaches and dirt trails?
Yes. The 18/8 stainless steel is rust-resistant and easy to rinse clean, so sand, grass, and dirt from a beach day or trail lunch wash off with water and a bottle brush.
How does the FUNTAINER compare to a soft-sided cooler for outdoor lunches?
A soft cooler is bulkier and needs ice packs, while the FUNTAINER is a personal-size insulated jar that keeps one childs portion hot or cold for hours without any ice, which is why families often use it alongside a cooler, not instead of one.
Is this a better outdoor option than a regular thermos for soup?
Yes. A standard adult thermos is often too tall and too hot to the touch for a child to carry, while the 10 oz FUNTAINER is sized for small hands, has a cool-touch exterior, and includes a folding spoon built in.
How does it compare to using a plastic food container with an ice pack outdoors?
Plastic containers cannot keep food truly cold in warm weather, and ice packs sweat and leak, while the FUNTAINER maintains food-safe cold temperatures for up to 7 hours on its own, which is a real advantage on hot park days.
Will the printed character design fade in the sun with outdoor use?
The durable outer finish is made to resist fading from normal sun exposure on park and patio days, so the design holds up to repeated outdoor use through a season of picnics and playdates.
Can the jar go in a stroller cup holder on a walk?
The 10 oz size fits in most standard stroller and water-bottle holders, and the leak-resistant lid means you can toss it in with confidence while walking through the park or the zoo.
Is the folding spoon easy to clean after an outdoor meal with sticky food?
Yes. The spoon folds out for a quick rinse at a park fountain, and the wide-mouth jar opening lets you reach in with a sponge or bottle brush for a deeper clean when you get home.
Does the jar stay cold enough for yogurt on a 90-degree day at the playground?
The double-wall vacuum insulation is designed to keep cold foods cold for up to 7 hours, so even on a hot playground day, yogurt and fruit stay at a kid-safe chilled temperature through the morning and into lunch.
Is the FUNTAINER a good option for after-school sports practice snacks?
Yes. Many parents pack a warm snack or cold protein into the jar before school, and by sports practice time the food is still at the right temperature, which makes it a popular choice for soccer, gymnastics, and swim practice.
How do you pack hot soup in the FUNTAINER so it stays warm until lunch?
Preheat the jar by filling it with hot tap water and letting it sit for a few minutes, then empty it and add your hot soup or pasta. The preheated vacuum chamber will keep the food at a warm temperature for up to 5 hours.
How do you clean the folding spoon and the inside of the jar?
Hand wash the jar and folding spoon in warm soapy water, then use a long-handled bottle brush through the wide-mouth opening to reach the bottom. Let both pieces air dry fully with the lid off before reassembling.
How do you open the push-button lid for the first time?
Press the button on the front of the lid to release the seal, then lift the lid off. To close, line up the lid and press down firmly until you hear the button click back into the locked position.
Does the FUNTAINER 10 oz food jar fit in a standard kids lunchbox?
Yes. The 10 oz jar is designed to fit inside most popular elementary-school lunchboxes and insulated lunch bags, sitting upright next to a sandwich, a fruit, and an ice pack without crowding the box.
Is the FUNTAINER food jar compatible with other Thermos FUNTAINER lids and accessories?
The 10 oz FUNTAINER jar is compatible with other genuine Thermos FUNTAINER brand lids and replacement spoons of the same size, so you can replace a lost spoon or a worn lid without buying a whole new jar.
What is included in the box when I open the FUNTAINER?
Inside the box you will find the 10 oz stainless steel insulated food jar, the integrated folding spoon stored in the lid, and a use-and-care insert. No additional accessories need to be purchased separately to start using the jar.
How long does the FUNTAINER keep food at the right temperature during a school day?
The vacuum-insulated double wall keeps hot foods like soup and pasta warm for up to 5 hours and cold foods like yogurt and fruit chilled for up to 7 hours, which easily covers a typical morning-to-lunch school day.
Is the FUNTAINER food jar leakproof when tossed in a backpack?
The push-button lid is engineered with a tight seal to resist leaks during normal backpack transport, so when the lid is fully clicked closed the jar will not leak onto the rest of the lunchbox contents.
What is the difference between a food jar and a water bottle?
A water bottle is designed for liquids you sip through a spout, while a food jar like the FUNTAINER has a wide-mouth opening and a folding spoon specifically for solid and semi-solid foods like soup, pasta, yogurt, and oatmeal.
