I remember when these were all the rage. People would flock to target to get the coveted pink stanley release for valentines day. As a massive water drinker myself, I was gifted one for my birthday years ago and instantly took a liking to it.
40oz of water that fits in my vehicles cup holder is a huge win. The reusable straw is easy to drink out of and has good mouthfeel. My cup and straw are still in perfect condition after all this time. The handle is also natural to hold and carry the bottle with. I have switched water cups frequently throughout the years, but bringing it back lately has been a treat.
The downside of a good treat is that you shouldn’t have one everyday, and similarly this tumbler isn’t good enough for daily use. There is one thing stopping this from being the perfect water receptacle… not having spill proof protection. Throughout its life it has fallen over and gotten my apartment carpet, desk at work, and car wet. It’s not something that happens frequently, but it’s enough of a problem to stay on my mind. I don’t want to have to be cautious and use headspace on protecting my water bottle every time I put it down after a hydrating swig. Thus, I believe the best place to use the stanley is at home, but not worth the hassle to bring while traveling.
