In search of a particular Valentine’s Day gift for the one you love that will not go unused? Certain, flowers are always a nice touch, however I like to recommend getting them a Stanley tumbler of their favourite colour and personalizing it. I have been utilizing my Stanley tumbler for roughly 4 months and may’t think about utilizing a distinct cup whereas I am on the go.
Previously, I’ve tried a number of fashionable water bottles, together with an hourly motivational bottle, which received me to drink extra water for perhaps three days, and I’ve tried utilizing solely disposable water bottles to higher maintain rely — I do know, dangerous for the setting. However nothing ever sticks, and I am again to chugging water at night time to catch up. However the cup that I’ve really caught with, as a result of it makes it simple to gulp water on the go, is the 30-ounce Stanley tumbler.
I purchased three totally different sizes of Stanley tumblers to strive, from Amazon — the 14-ounce in charcoal ($20), 30-ounce in cream ($35) and 40-ounce in orchid ($45) — and there is a clear winner. Although the 40-ounce would in all probability be my cup of selection, I frequently need to lug round my 23-pound, energetic toddler, which suggests I want one thing lighter to place my water in. That very same toddler is all the time following me round, so continuously refilling the 14-ounce bottle can be out of the query — plus it would not have a deal with, which is inconvenient. The deal with is unquestionably a recreation changer.
That leaves the Goldilocks of the group: the 30-ounce Stanley tumbler. It is gentle, suits in my automobile’s cupholder and is insulated with chrome steel, so I can use it to maintain my water chilly or my espresso sizzling. I as soon as left my Stanley tumbler, crammed with ice water, within the automobile throughout an 89-degree day, and the water was nonetheless chilly once I received again hours later.
The one draw back I’ve discovered is that when the straw is within the cup, there isn’t any strategy to make the cup leak-proof. So when my 1-year-old will get ahold of my cup, he spills water throughout himself. The straw is detachable, however I choose to make use of it, as a result of it makes consuming water simpler (in my view).
