When he arrived, I eyed him critically and could not see any of that in other reviews deficiencies. I was satisfied.
Unfortunately, the construction failure has after the first filling then become noticeable:
The hinge that holds the lid is 1mm too short! That is, the flask can be easily opened, but to close it back you have to "pull" force the lid from the hinge so that you get the chance it reasonably straight aufzusetzten on the thread to him then screw up with great force. Without this effort, it does not work, otherwise the lid is wrong and can not be tightened.
It's a little easier when you laterally slightly flattens the eye of the hinge so that the eye is oval. This little one needs less power, because to get easier in the closed position of the lid. It still would 0.5mm to the lid close cleanly missing.
However, this seems to be a general problem, since otherwise no one has reported.
Furthermore, I have seen a few weeks later the same flask in a shop (price was about the same). I immediately tried the lock because I wanted if I caught a bad product by Qualtitätsschwankungen or whether in this price range may generally nothing better is to get really, and my expectations were perhaps too high to know. But the closure of the flat's store worked perfectly and without effort.
I kept the article, since it fundamentally only times does its job as a hip flask. But I'll have to buy a better functioning replacement for this hip flask in the near future.
