Stanley  Adventure Vacuum Quencher Travel Tumbler - 30 fl. oz.

This tumbler has some strong points - it is a good size that holds a lot, it comes with a straw that I like for drinking cold beverages, and its tapered base allows it to easily fit in car cup holders, and the price is reasonable compared to some competitors. The negatives? For cold drinks the opening for the straw means you are of course not getting a full seal, so it will not keep cold drinks cold as long as tumblers that fully seal. And it does not work so well for hot drinks. It does have a swiveling piece on the top that allows you to "seal" the opening for drinking when you are not using the straw, but it really does not tightly seal - tip the tumbler over and the liquid pretty much pours out. And I found that the high rim on the lid makes drinking hot liquid difficult. [Note: I received free product in return for an honest review.]

I absolutely love my Stanley Tumbler. The 30 oz tumbler fits nicely into the cars cup holder. When I take a turn, the tumbler doesn’t fall out. I took my Stanley on my flight across the country, used it in my classroom, and I take it out on the soccer field while coaching. I absolutely love my Stanley! The straw feature is amazing, when I traveled on the plane I didn’t use my straw and just drank from the lid which has a closing tab to cover the hole. This tumbler is all around perfect. I had ice and water in my Stanley tumbler and was coaching outside in 104 degree temperatures. The water stayed cold the whole time.

I bought this cup in the color Lilac and was so obsessed with it. Having a cute cup like this really encourages me to drink more water, which is the only thing I was using it for. So my only problem is that it developed this weird spot at the bottom of it seemingly out of nowhere. I was only putting water in it, and washing it out religiously as well as thoroughly cleaning the straw with every use! I have no idea where this spot came from but now I’m discouraged from using that cup and just using my Owala.

lol. We have several but very difficult trying to keep them clean.

First the positives, of which there are many! Keeps things cold for a very long time!! Put water and ice in at about 6 pm and next morning water was still cold. Love that it can fit into the cup holder of a car, which none of our other large bottles can do. Enjoy that the top has multiple options and the included straw is great. Negatives - while adventure is in the name, it’s not spill proof at all. A simple tilt, even when “closed” has liquid coming out. I also have small hands and it’s quite heavy when full and a bit awkward to carry without a handle. But even with that we still love it. It’s perfect for around the house, road trips, and more stationary adventures such as hanging at the beach or campsite.

I bought 2 of the 30 ounce in the limited edition Tigerlilly color. 1 for me and 1 for my sister. They wrapped the cups in 2sheets of tissue paper and put them in a box with no bubble or foam to protect them in transit. They put a brown kraft paper filler on top but there wasn’t anything to hold them down. Both cups arrived and have dent on the bottom of each cup. I’m annoyed because the tumblers aren’t cheap and I haven’t seen the color restocked. I’m super bummed! $70 and I would at least like a mint condition tumbler. The order fulfillment people need training on how to properly pack items that may damage easily. Im gonna return my items.

This tumbler is fine, but not great. It keeps things cold long enough- I use it at my desk while working and it stays cold for most of the day. It fits in the cup holder in my car as well which is nice. The main issue I have is with the top- it is plastic and the it usually takes a couple of tries to thread it properly, which is annoying. The straw is also white plastic and my iced tea started to stain it. If REI hadn't sent me the tumbler for an honest review, I probably wouldn't have chosen to buy this because there are better versions out there. I have medium-sized hands for a woman and I don't have a very secure grip when I hold it around the top third of the tumbler, which isn't ideal. Overall it will get the job done, but I had higher expectations.

I received the 30 oz Stanley Tumbler for review about a week ago and it had been mostly a great experience. While I don’t have photos my wife daughter and myself used this tumbler constantly this past weekend while camping in Rocky Mountain National Park. Ice cold water and ice for hours In the sun and hot coffee as long as it lasted. Live the finish on the cup but my only complaint is that it does not seal from spills when closed. You also have a straw to contend with but I personally just removed it. Great cup and glad to add it to our options as it will remain in rotation.

We purchased the Stanley Adventure Vacuum primarily to use in our RV's (undersized) cup holders to keep drinks cold. For that, it does just fine. What's disappointing is that in the closed position the lid leaks like a sieve if the cup is tipped enough for the liquid inside to get to the top rim. So not a problem if your idea of "Adventure" doesn't go beyond flat surfaces and cup holders. If you're looking for a multi-purpose water carrier that could go in your backpack for a day hike, this is not a good choice.

I bought this as a travel mug as opening and closing water and juice bottles while driving is just too difficult. Ease of use and fitting in the cup holder with a handle was the selling point. I was skeptical of how long things might stay cold as I have lots of other containers that just don't last very long. This Stanley is the best ever! I took juice and ice in the car while I went to an appointment and had to leave it in the car. 6 hours later and in a VERY hot car I came out to an ice cold drink that still had ice! I now take it everywhere and it is just the best!
