Stanley The Legendary Classic Lunch Box

When I was a boy of ten, I bought my father a Stanley coffee thermos for Xmas. He was always breaking his coffee thermos as he was a farmer, banging them around. none of them lasted long. So that is why I bought him a Stanley. A couple of years later, it fell off the tractor and he ran over it. It did manage to put a bit of a dent in the side of it, kinda gave the thing a somewhat rugged appearance. I am now 60 years old,Dad is long gone, but I just finished drinking a cup o joe out of that old beat up thermos. Still keeps the coffee hot.

I've carried a metal lunch box for over 45 years, and I never had a new one until now. The first was a hand-me-down from some relative, the second was bought used at a thrift store when the first one finally wore out. And now at the age of 59, I have a brand new Stanley metal lunch box. I really didn't think I would be able to find something like this today. This thing is rock solid, heavy duty, and big enough for a hungry man's lunch and thermos. Everyone kept telling me to get one of those flimsy insulated cloth bags for my lunch, but that isn't what I wanted. I wanted something that wouldn't get sat on and crushed, or develop a jammed zipper and tear apart and I wanted something that would last more than a few months or a year. This Stanley lunch box is a lifetime purchase. it will be passed down like my first one was to me. Yeah, it cost a bit more than a plastic insulated box, but this is definitely worth the money in my opinion. I'm glad I found it, I'm glad I bought it, and I'm glad I didn't settle for anything less.
