I’m giving 4 stars because I’m an ice chomper and I hate melted ice or maybe water but regardless it’s definitely going to stay cold. I liked that it’s harder to twist off the top because this means it doesn’t leak. If you have arthritis like me then it may be hard to remove the lid which can be very upsetting. I actually had to get my 14 yr old to open it one day because it was so tight. I got the hot pink and the rose and customized the rose and it was perfect. My daughter dropped one on the concrete accidentally and it seems to be pretty solid because I don’t even see any dents. So all in all it’s a great product and my daughter couldn’t be happier so it’s worth every penny ! Oh and these are cheaper than some of the most “ top selling “ brands. I definitely think they are going to be selling less now that these Stanley’s have emerged!!!

This whirlwind trend to walk around school with a Stanley cup makes my head spin, but this is what my 15 year old daughter wanted for Christmas. Its only been two days, but My daughter loves it. This particular one with the carry handle is most preferred by this family. Its easier to walk around with than the grip handle. With the carry handle you can have multiple items in that hand. As far as durability and cleaning, I'd have to answer that in a year from now. I'd have to Check to see when the mold begins in the sip straw or around the cap seal.The quality seems good, again haven't tried hot, or if its dropped what happens. To store you need to place it on a shelf with obviously the height of the cup. I liked the many different designs. My review title and stars are only based on two days. Use your judgement.

This is a great product! Keeps ice for over a day, water stays cold. Drink spout is easy to deploy and closes securely. The jug can leak if the lid is not tightly closed, but that would be true of any product. I'm looking forward to really using it this summer when the weather heats up. The 40-oz capacity is a good size, too: enough water for a hot day, but not hugely bulky like some products.

All the negative product reviews on this website are odd. In some cases, the review sounds like it is for an entirely different product. And it would be much more helpful to see reviews from actual REI users as opposed to dozens of comments from Stanley's website.

I LOVE this tumbler! I fill it daily with ice then add my protein drink. It keeps my drink very cold all day and the ice slowly melts so I get water the rest of the day. The flip top is great for ensuring no spills and staying clean. The next morning there is still about a cup of ice in the tumbler! I gave only 4 stars because the straw is initially difficult to use with ice - the ice gets stuck to the sides and it is hard to insert the straw because of this. I've tried inserting the straw before adding ice, and the ice won't move so the straw comes off the grommet on the lid when twisting the lid on. I also would love a stainless steel straw option. None of these are game changers for me. I'd buy another in a heartbeat!
