I Have No Idea Why I Am Surprised At Just Now Finding Out About These

MAKITA Rechargeable Coffee Maker CM501DZ (Blue)

$155.47 @ AMAZON.

Yes, it’s a real thing, unlike this, yet

If Milwaukee actually makes one, I haven’t been able to find it for sale after looking for several minutes.

Despite it looking real, it may be an AI generated image.

The best remark to it I saw was one guy saying he was going to wait for the Harbor Freight version.

Personally, I’m thinking a hundred and fifty bucks buys a couple three nice Thermoses.

Holds 2 quarts instead of making two cups, for $47.50 apiece.

As a matter of fact I have several old Thermoses around here, some of them seriously vintage models.

But I do also have one of their Large Models like the one above.

There are very good reasons they are still popular all these decades later.

  1. Hey! You are supposed to be stoved up and incoherent, twisted sicky! How come you are posting after my heartfelt, sincere apologies to our esteemed and loyal readers? Now looks I be lying or stretching the truth…

    • I am sure using the Stanley thermos you gave me plus the one I had for having enough coffee for my brother and me when out and about.

      • THIS is awesome reading. As to the Cardio Rehab… well… try not to treat them in kind too much. Just enough… not too much.

        Be well.

  2. Have the Stanley thermos mug…keeps the coffee hot until I’m finished. Always had a Keurig in the work trailer for job site coffee, no need for a battery operated one…but those are kinda cool.

  3. “Battery and charger sold separately”. Yeah, no deal. And it doesn’t say how many cups on a charge. Water has a tremendous thermal mass, and heating a cup of coffee takes a whole lot of power.
    I’m with Phil. I’ll just keep my Stanley. I once worked with the kind of yahoo’s who would toss theirs under the tracks of a cat, mash it flat, and send it back saying “it’s defective, won’t hold heat”. And with the lifetime guarantee, they’d get a new one back in the mail.

  4. I’ve had my thermos out to the job a few times this week. It’s getting pretty cold in the morning these days.

  8. I’ve got a SS Stanley I’ve had since 1972. I bought it because I dropped the Stanley glass bottle model smashing both of them on cold spring mornings out fishing on opening day two years running. The one I have doesn’t have that nifty handle.

    Never dropped the SS version, even though it is bulkier and heavier than the glass bottle versions. The SS version keeps coffee hot for eight hours or so and 50+ years later it sill works just fine.

    • yeah, picked up 2 of them at a yard sale for 20 bucks for both.
      lent on to my kid and it got stolen from his truck. he even had the nerve to ask about the one I had left ?
      told him to go buy his own !
      I still have 2 left, one is close to 40 years old and the other one I have no idea but I have owned it for the last 25 years at least.
      they are worth every penny !

      • You got a deal. I think I paid $35 for two at the “Antique Store” which was more like a disorganized thrift store with pretensions. They came with a big leather hard case (think giant binoculars case) that holds both of them. Dunno if the big Stanleys are currently made in US (prolly chinesium like everything else), but mine are US made and keep stuff hot better than the new thermoses I used to use.

    • My Dad always carried one until the glass broke. I have a black stainless steel version. Love it. I figured the black one would stay warm longer with the sun on it . Always liked the classic green though

  9. I found one of those Stanley’s, probably about 20 years old or more, in new condition at Goodwill for $4!

  10. You’re surprised about just finding out about these because you actually work.
    These machines are for soy-boy-man-bun-effeminate faggots who turn the job site into a feminized safe space where they can share their feewings with Gaia an Baal.

  13. Makita makes a battery powered microwave ,that looked like an ok idea. Coffee pot? Nah , I’ve got the big Stanley 2 quart thermos I’m good.
