The Ice Cream Canteen Vacuum Insulated Double Wall Stainless Steel Thermos Container for the pint of ice cream enjoy ice cream anywhere (Mint Green)

Does exactly what it claims to do. Really well made and so far has been scratch-resistant. It’s kept a pint of lemon marionberry ice cream solid and still cold in a tote bag through an entire four and a half hour screening of the two “Kill Bill” movies.

I backed this on Kickstarter and used it for several camping trips in the summer in Louisiana and it kept my ice cream cold and frozen as it should be. It worked so well my sister didn’t return in so here I am buying a second one on Amazon. Perfect size to fit in my cooler, doesn’t leak and I love the stainless steel. Buy this, take it tent camping and impress your friends when you pull out ice cream to go along with the cast iron apple cobbler made over the camp fire.

I initially had quite the hiccup with these ice cream coolers. My initial excitement turned into frustration when the lids on both of coolers I ordered proved utterly impossible to open. However, their customer service contacted me quickly and, after explaining their own frustration with technical issue with the lids, they promised help. While the wait was a bit longer than I expected, I'm pleased to share that the Ice Cream Canteen Co. did eventually come through, and a replacement shipment was sent my way. I'm relieved to report that these replacements function exactly as intended. They are both functional & beautiful - exactly as I had hoped. I can now walk downtown, buy my local anrtisanal ice cream, do a bit of shopping in the farmers’ market, and don’t have to rush straight home, or tote heavy blue ice packs. Despite the initial setback and the extended resolution time, the fact that this company made amends and fulfilled their commitment to customer satisfaction is noteworthy. Thank you, Ice Cream Canteen folks!

I have a Cusinart ice cream maker so i make ice cream iand freeze in these containers. I have 4 of them. Even stays frozen inside our Yeti when going to the cabin (4 hours away). This would have been a 5 star but i have returned several of these because the stainless steel outer lid separates from the plastic inner lid. I tried gorilla glue to hold it together but one of those "fixes" just came apart last night. Going to try some metal bonding epoxy next

Being a hardcore ice cream lover the product is amazing in keeping Ice Cream frozen. Recently I had the Canteen fall on the floor and the lid came apart. I reached out 3-4 times to the company as it says it's in a life time warranty yet no one has gotten back with me since. I'll adjust my review if I can get some help with my issue. (Update: 01/08/2026) Someone finally reached out and was very kind to review my emails. Provided info of purchase and got it replaced extremely fast).

Love these canteens. They work well. I bought these originally to bring ice cream home from a dairy that is 40 minutes away. The first time I used it, it was a blistering hot day. I made two additional stops for about an hour. The canteen was in an insulated bag but no ice included. When I arrived home the ice cream was just beginning to soften a trifle. I have three of these. My only caveat is that you have to be very careful closing the lid. If it is not lined up evenly, it is possible to damage the threads.

I really wanted to love this container, it's a great idea, I love the shape and it's all metal design is what I look for. BUT, the lid is so wide it can be a bit tough to tighten or open. In addition, with the lid tightened down, I noticed I could lift the lid away from the canister about 1/4 inch on one side. This, of course, prevents a good seal which will allow air from the outside in, thus warming the ice cream a bit quicker. I returned the canister, did some more shopping around and ended up buying a similar container from S'well which worked out better but is not all metal. Sorry "Ice Cream Canteen" I tried, but this container doesn't quite work for me.

Kept it in the freezer over night and put a container of ice cream in it the next morning. Kept the container in an ice chest and it the ice cream was slightly thawed about 12 hours later But it should be perfectly frozen if going to have ice cream just a few hours later.

My big question was sizing. Turns out this DOES fit the standard ice cream cone shaped pot. (I think this is a US pint). Anyway, very good quality metal vacuum flask. I bought it to get the ice cream home from town supermarket on bus. Works really well for this. Expensive, I think comes from US and duty is payable so delays on delivery and cost. Well made. Recommend but balance cost for yourself.

Did not know until I just gifted one , still have one. Please advise if I can get tops. Thx , Kim

it works but overall it's pretty useless. could get same results with a good cooler

For a product which is so expensive, there seems to be a lack of quality control. You will notice that the round metal logo on the top is not centred or sitting flush (same with the other containers I received). The other problem may not be a manufacturer's problem and might be the seller's packaging - this particular item arrived with a damaged / dented lid. I am sure that this damage will not affect the use of the product, but at this kind of price, you would expect a very well made product.

Insulation is worse than I expected at this price. The weakest insulation is in the lid, causing the ice cream to melt from the top down, which is inconvenient because it means half the ice cream is perfect to eat whilst the other half is not. In my experience you cannot wait more than 4 hours before eating the ice cream. In contrast, I have other (less expensive) thermos food flasks that will keep food frozen for about 9 hours.
