Stanley Cup HONEST REVIEW - Is it worth the money?

[@jeremycongdon7577]

I love my Stanley; I just had to add a boot on the bottom that helps keep it in the holder better and prevents it from getting scratched.

[@arsalanbx6609]

My friend sent me one from north America, I live in Brazil. After floating in the ocean for over two months, it still had ice in it 😮

[@kingsly1031]

No way

[@mjtannertwins]

You can buy straw caps for the stanleys but of course they're sold separately. X/

[@slylove0358]

The Owala tumblers are a game changer. Ice will stay for a couple of days and it has a built in straw with lid that closes over it,

[@kaitlingreco]

I need to check that out! Thanks for the rec 😊

[@bloomwiththestars]

​@@kaitlingreco They also have a FreeSip water bottle that has a built-in straw that's hidden underneath the lid, as well as an mouth you can lift and drink from, which may satisfy your request for a straw that can be covered. I have one and I love it. ☺️

[@vedranailicic80]

So ugly sadly

[@symmetricalastic]

I have two of those you’re right they’re really great water bottles

[@tnaravane]

Hydro flask has a straw that folds down! It’s heavy but the handle is easier to hold and carry because I just hook my finger on it. Also reduce makes a dupe and the handle is so much better! It’s also way more affordable

[@kaitlingreco]

I’ll have to check it out! Thanks for the recommendation 😊

[@emmay317]

I have a Hydroflow and it’s good, but I love my Stanley cup

[@seeyuenleong8913]

I really like your straw opinion. That is good valid point. I am now looking at the Stanley with the top swivel handle with straw that pushes down.

[@annaswanson5903]

Honestly I love mine, but those are all valid points. They do have stainless steel water bottles with compact-able straws and handle on the lid that might be exactly what you’re looking for

[@kaitlingreco]

So many people do love them and I think that’s great! I just was surprised by how heavy it is lol

[@HomeLifeWithLove]

The straw is a deal breaker for me. I have 2 Yeti cups. The appeal for me is the lid. I like how quiet it is to open and close, and the magnetic top is removable for easy cleaning. It doesn't keep stuff cold for a really long time. I put a frozen smoothie in it for church. At first it freezes up, but then it melts. It isn't super cold for hours. It does stay cool enough that I can keep it in my hot car while running errands and it won't get hot, but it doesn't stay cold either. The same goes for not staying hot for a long time. It doesn't take long for my hot coffee to be cooled down enough to drink. I think the clear plastic lids affect their ability to keep the temperatures stable. There's nothing insulating about the lids.

[@gradualdescent1729]

Hi, just wanted to let you know that there are other Stanley’s if you are interested! I don’t think you’ll need it being that you have two yetis, but there are Stanley’s with metal lids with a foldable straw and ones that twist open just like the yeti! 😊

[@anon-mx4jx]

There are so many bottles were you can flip the straw over so it’s closed completely shut and won’t leak at all. I personally love The coldest water bottle but pretty much every big insulated bottle company has these things, even Stanley. When I go to work I would never use an open cup like this, but when I am at home or I am running errands were I am in an out of the car all day and leave my cup in the cup holder I prefer a more open design. I don’t know why, it just feels comfortable to have the lose straw when I can. Also I use the flip straw bottles only for water and the regular straw bottles for flavoured drinks or milk drinks because I can change the straw when it gets stained or retains flavour.

[@shaquithas]

@2:35 The water wasn't very cold even thou u still had ice in it??? I don't understand why wasn't the water very cold and u still had ice in it and you said that was a pro you said??? It should be very cold right? Just trying to understand just asking 🙏♥️

[@princessrae4223]

I just ordered the Standley Target Terrazzo Pearlescent for 2 reasons: to see what hype is about and thinking it would be great this summer at the beach. I will say there are other bottles that will keep you drink icy cold for days. I have one, it was a gift.. I will say you do need multiple cups for different purposes. I have a water bottle that daily travel, it fit easy on the side of my backpack.. but it’s not insulated. Then I have my gifted bottle I love in the summer for walks travel because it keeps your drink cold cold. I don’t think we will ever get that one purpose bottle. I hate having to carry cups and what not… but it’s hard to find a coffee non drip.. well they just don’t last long. I have a Swell non drip but my coffee is cold by the time I get to work now. Anyway thanks for keeping it real. I hope to use my Standley for vacation or days or hot summer days I’m just relaxing/ off . Not gone travel with it I can see myself dropping it lol

[@MirayaGupta-h8j]

If the straw is a deal breaker for you, don’t fret! On Amazon or many other places they sell these little lid type of things and there’s many cute ones that you can just equip on your Stanley and it’s super light so no worries about that, I’m getting a Stanley in October and I am hyped!

[@Glolane123]

it seems like nyou get it now so can i get a review from you?

[@ericac2420]

I like my Stanley cup.💕 i have the rose quartz color. I carry it to work everyday and it fits lovely in my cup holders. The texture is pretty, unique colors, keeps my water cold and not heavy. To each it’s own. It depends on what you need a water cup for

[@barbaravillafane1119]

I am in between the rose quartz or the beig one... is it too different or too pink? cuz I like soft colours

[@iceberglounge]

@4:48 on both of their respective websites, the Stanley is 1.4 lbs and a Yeti 35 oz rambler is 1.5 lbs so it might just *feel* heavier

[@kailynbrennan1412]

Thanks for being truly honest. I’m pretty petite, so it sounds like holding and lifting it when full would be awkward for me. I have plenty of smaller options that maybe have to be refilled during the day but that might be easier for me to handle. At the end of the day, it’s more a status symbol than a superior water bottle.

[@EniylahMckenzie]

If u don’t want the straw getting in the way or getting dirty get the one with the flip straw

[@laurel_luxe]

I truly appreciate your honesty ❣️ It always sucks having to give negative thoughts on a product BUT it shows you really care about your audience 🙂

[@kaitlingreco]

It does and I don’t want to hate on the product because there are some positives but it’s just not as great as everyone made it out to be lol

[@LuciaAscani]

They sell straw coverers and you could also get a shoulder strap for it

[@withlovesavana]

The honest and thorough review the internet needed!

[@kaitlingreco]

Hahah thank you 😊

[@suzannetaylor6285]

Hydro flask sells the folding straw lid as an option. I use one for the gym and it’s leak proof! I did by this to keep in my car became my Hydro does not fit in the cup holder which is important o me as someone who commutes a lot.

[@jeffduquette5124]

There are two types of Stanley's the one that you have with the long straw and one that has a fold in straw

[@hunnybee7777]

Check out the brand Coldest. The one I have comes with 3 different top options and you can even get a strap to carry the cup over your wrist or shoulder so you can be hands free. I love mine.

[@symmetricalastic]

I really want a yeti rambler. Which yeti do you have?

[@josephinegueret2239]

Does that keep the drink hot as well? I love drinking huge hot tea rather than iced and I am wondering

[@kd5773]

Love my Stanley, don't use the straw. Had a Yeti with no handle and this works so much better, can have my hands full and still can hook a finger over the handle and carry it too. Spouse had a 30 oz Yeti, the handle was uncomfortable and the lid dribbled, so he got a Stanley too. We like em!

[@xerodeth542]

Awww the Stanley Couple 😅

[@Theyluvkxndall12]

Me cutely bombastic side eyeing my Stanley on my bedside table

[@billiexluxury]

I’m really glad I watched this video, the bottle is so aesthetically pleasing but if it’s hard to carry around that’s a con. Thank you for your honest feedback

[@HavenPlayz17]

They’re sold out everywhere that sells them near me I’d have to go far away from my home for one so I’m just going to get one online

[@AveryElizabeth123-fw1pb]

She did good about the cold and how long it stays cold but she said it was 40oz but it is 30oz. No hate

[@lauraandsam21]

Ive got a soft silicone straw to pop in mine and then can poke it down and shut the lid :)

[@alexb7336]

Will it keep it luke warm too? I only drink luke warm or hot water.

[@RxseReyn]

Thanks! I have a Stanley coming in few days and wanted to be prepared, so thanks Kaitlin!!!❤❤❤

[@NurseMmJ]

I am interested in finding a cup that the top covers the straw too. Any luck? -❤ NurseMJ

[@jennihart1634]

Is it worth keeping

[@katyaceron375]

I truly appreciate your honesty I feel like now I can really decide if I need the cup or not

[@kaitlingreco]

Glad it could help!

[@shadabkanani8184]

Loved this review! Very honest and concise. Thank you 🙂

[@MolliLostInMakeup]

Like others have said in the comments, I totally appreciate your honesty! I have been wanting one of these for a while and it's good to know the pros and cons :)

[@retailtherapywithstaceylyn3289]

they have straw covers

[@Therealpeypey]

I’m going to have to disagree with you about the fact that they are sold out. I’m not seeing this video is bad I love this video. It’s great, but I went to. Four different stores, and they were all sold out in the one that I did find was the last one at Dick’s, and it was one that someone was returning😅

[@SelfMadeMaeve]

It’s a spesific size that was mass sold out

[@alleighlouise5184]

I personally love my Stanley cups but thanks for your honest opinion. I wonder if you would like Stanley’s 30 oz Ice Flow Flip Straw Tumbler. It doesn’t have a big handle on the side of it, just one on the top. I think they are currently sold out on their website but Amazon has them. Just a thought! :)

[@lauren333nerual1]

I totally agree. Stanley does make a cup without handles and also has one that has a flip straw. Those would probably be better fits for the creator of this video personally. Maybe a little more research next time?

[@kylopaw2096]

100% Owala all the way I work at a daycare and the Owala is my go to water bottle for work, travle and just at home ! I am even having my bridesmaids all get matching Owala water bottles with me for my wedding

[@TaylorRose04]

I went and checked the Stanley cups out at dicks sporting goods and I was so disappointed with the quality! I’m definitely sticking to yeti 😊

[@kaitlingreco]

Yeah there’s no reason to get a Stanley if you have a Yeti imo. Thanks for watching 😊

[@JoeT-re5ro]

I prefer the yeti as well

[@keiral-mb6el]

Thanks so much for this info!! I would recommend the 30 oz for everyone because you could just refill it in my opinion and also the 40oz is so heavy (I don’t have a Stanley just an opinion)

[@TexKP]

The Stanley Thermos rules. At the same time, I got a huge thermos for less than these quenchers cost. What’s up with these inflated prices?!?

[@Pinkprincess86]

My boyfriend bought me a cup and it does the same thing for only 10 dollars or maybe 15 dollars I love it 🥰

[@robertzehm]

Hydro flask is unequivocally better. Get a Stanley thermos is you want a useful product.

[@makeupconsultsbyrachel1454]

Try simple modern. Those are the best in my opinion

[@kaitlingreco]

Thanks for the tip!

[@zylalena]

is it the 30 or 40 oz you have?

[@isabeljaquez1917]

Totally agree!! I don’t see what the hype is about !

[@BlendedBarbieDoll]

I contemplated this for about 7 months. I was gifted the 30oz version (perfect size for me) as well as the 20 ounce with no handle (perfect for the gym) I’m so happy with the 30 ounce because my hands are small! I have only had the ZAK cups from target, for several years. I’m happy to upgrade.

[@Misakigrace]

Does the Stanley cup 2.0 leak?

[@Sunflowers72]

A little bit but not as much at the first one.

[@kristiepope8254]

I definitely appreciate your honest review! That’s a lot of money for a cup that I know won’t fit in my car with that huge handle. I have Yeti’s so no need to spend the money. Have a great weekend Kaitlin!🥰

[@ayesharaziq1083]

Can yeti be used for hot drinks? Also how long it lasts?

[@heysara910]

Takeya has a bottle like that, where the straw folds in, and the bottles are great. I have several! I don't think I need this, now. I only really wanted it for home, and it can't go in the fridge anyway. Thank you!

[@kaitlingreco]

Ohh I’ll have to check out that brand! I’ve never heard of it. Thanks for watching 😊

[@heysara910]

[@barbaradaly9838]

Thanks for your honesty.

[@aomumoo]

I don’t get this Stanley thing. My thermoflask, simple modern, yeti, and Rtic cups are all amazing. All hold ice for well over 24 hours, all fit in cup holders, and my thermoflask and simple modern cups can be tossed into my bags and kids backpacks with no leaks. They can also be dropped and just picked back up.

[@nicolelavoie3604]

Yo66're cmparison isn't accurate. The Stanley you havee is a 40 oz while your yeti looks like 30 oz plus that yeti won't fit in your car cup holder while the stanley does. Also the stanley base is sturdey and covered ehile the yeti's ss base is not (slippery). As well, the stanley is "tall and slim" and the yeti is "short and fat" (reason why iit won't ft in car cup holder.

[@nicolelavoie3604]

Oh, and you don't menton that the Stanley's cover also gives you the "sip" option without the straw. With the Yeti you needs another cover for the sip option. Honestly I really didn't see much comparison with the Yeti - I believe lack of familiarity with both is the problem. I have the 30 oz Stanley and a Yeti. Stanley, in my opinion and based on experience with both, Stanley is my top-rated one.

[@kaitlingreco]

@@nicolelavoie3604 thanks for the view! The yeti does fit in my cup holder :)

[@WY-DaveZ71]

IMO, the 'cons' you listed are personal cons. Not actual cons. The one con you missed is that if you have VERSION 1 of the bottle, it leaks (due to the straw hole). In version 2, they made the straw hole more like the spot of a cup from a fast food restaurant. Does VERSION 2 leak? Yes, but NOWHERE NEAR like its predecessor, again because they changed the straw hole. It is VERY hard to find this bottle, i think you were just lucky when it was in stock at the store you got it (as in they just got thier shipment). I don't understand that you say you're a germaphobe, yet you like a straw?? Try checking out the Camelbak Chute Mag Vacume Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle, or the Stanley Quick Flip Go Bottle, or the Stanley Iceflow Flip Straw Water Bottle. I'm worried about dirt/dust/germs going into my water/drink, so if I'm not drinking the liquid, MUST BE secured!!! LOL. Also, as far as I know, as of the date and time of this post, Stanley is the ONLY one that has a LIFETIME WARRANTY. Yeti, Thermos, ect at MAX have only a 5 year warranty. Camelbak does have a LIFETIME WARRANTY but only for manufacturers defects. For instance, Stanley claims it withstands a 4,000-foot drop. I used to climb radio towers. I dropped mine from 50 feet, and it died. Contacted Stanley, and they sent me a new one. I even was willing to take a refurbished one, but they sent me a new one (obviously I had to send pictures with a code next to the pictures of the thermos, but they did honor the warranty). I can't think of any other manufacturer that does that. Just my 2 cents for what it's worth. Keep up the videos, though, I did like hearing what bad things might being said. 😁
