I use my Stanley Tumblers every day and they are on sale for the last day of Prime Day
If you’ve been trying to decide whether or not it’s worth dropping $45 on a Stanley mug, there’s a good reason to take the plunge. Since I’ve been looking at Stanley mugs, I haven’t seen them drop in price, so sales will likely be few and far between. While the 40-ounce mugs are $45, there are smaller options available for less. Several of the 14-ounce mugs are marked down by 20% for the final day of Prime Day.
Currently the 14-ounce tumbler is available in the black, cream, frost, lilac, grapefruit And rose quartz colors for $20, thanks to a modest $5 discount.
This is my experience with the Stanley cups. Are you looking for a nice koozie for the summer? This Brumate Hopsulator Trio is my favorite and keeps drinks ice cold for hours.
My favorite size Stanley cup
Over the years I have tried several trendy water bottles to encourage myself to drink more water. I have an hourly motivational bottlewhich made me drink more water for maybe three days, and I’ve tried to only use disposable bottles to keep track of it (I know, bad for the environment). Nothing ever sticks, and I drink water again in the evening to refuel. The cup I’ve kept because it’s easy to drink water on the go is the Stanley Cup 30 Ounce.
This is what I thought about each size Stanley cup
I bought three different sizes of Stanley cups to try on Amazon — the 14-ounce in stone ($20), 30-ounce in cream ($35) And 40-ounce in lilac ($45) — and there’s a clear winner. While the 40-ounce would probably be my go-to cup, I often have to lug my energetic 23-pound toddler around, which means I need something lighter to hold my water. That same kid is always following me around, so constantly refilling the 14-ounce cup is out of the question, too — plus it doesn’t have a handle, which is inconvenient. The handle is definitely a game-changer.
That leaves the Goldilocks of the bunch: the 30-ounce Stanley tumbler. It’s lightweight, fits in my car cup holder, and is insulated with stainless steel, so I can use it to keep my water cold or my coffee hot. I once left my Stanley tumbler filled with ice water in the car on a 90-degree day, and the water was still cold when I returned hours later.

What I don’t like about Stanley cups
The only downside I have found is that once the straw is in the cup, there is no way to make it leak proof. So when my 1 year old gets a hold of my cup, he spills water all over himself. The straw is removable, but I prefer to use it because it makes drinking water easier (in my opinion).
