Everyone remembers their first Stanley. The popular drinkware brand is known for its wide array of vibrant shades and fun styles, many of which are brand new for the fall season. Among the most sought after products is the Stanley Quencher H2.0 FlowState Tumbler ($45) — a larger travel tumbler with a narrow base to comfortably fit most cup holders.

If you spend any time on social media, you're likely familiar with the internet hype surrounding these Stanleys. Viral videos show fans running through Target to buy limited-edition colors, while others stock entire walls with rows of Stanley cups. Tyla even named it as one of her must haves in an interview with Popsugar. Given all the buzz, it's worth asking: is the Stanley tumbler really worth the cult following? Or is it just another passing trend?

To find out more, I decided to try the Stanley Quencher Tumbler for myself. This bottle is particularly massive, coming in at 40 ounces, and it's racked up thousands of five-star reviews. (Who knew a water bottle could have such a passionate fan base?) Curious about whether the tumbler would just become another water bottle in my collection or if it would actually change my life, I put it to the test. Check out my honest review of the Stanley Tumbler ahead, and make sure to snag yours while fresh fall colors are still available — including Dew Drop ($45), Toast ($45), Hot Coral ($45), Pistachio ($45), and two on-sale favorites Fuchsia ($27, originally $45) and Nectarine ($27, originally $45).

What Makes a Good Tumbler?

In my book, the perfect tumbler is one that's durable and designed to hold up well over time. It should also be easy to travel with, leakproof (nobody wants spillage), and stylish enough that it elevates your look outside of the house. It's a long list, but I have high hopes the Stanley tumbler will check all the boxes.

What I Like About the Stanley Tumbler

What don't I like about this Stanley tumbler? I've had it for a while now, and it's become my day-to-day companion, which is saying something because I'm the dehydrated one of the friend group. It's earned a spot on my bedside table, it spends all day on my desk during work hours (filled with sparkling water, in case you were wondering), and I've even been bringing it to Orangetheory classes in the evening. Thanks to this water bottle, I'm confident I'm the most hydrated I've ever been.

Despite the tumbler's massive size, it's still portable and practical thanks to its large handle. It even has a narrow base that can fit into your cup holder. (I'm not positive it fits into every cup holder in existence, but it fits in my Mini Cooper's just fine.) One thing you might not realize about this tumbler is that the straw isn't the only way to drink it. You can also twist the top in case you'd rather sip your beverage straight out of the tumbler (which I've done in very thirsty moments). I also love how you can spin the lid and cover the straw opening to prevent spills when you're on the go.

Oh, and I can't forget to mention that it keeps drinks cold legitimately all day. The brand says it can do so for up to 11 hours, but I'm convinced it's kept mine colder even longer than that. Sometimes when I take a sip of it in the night, I'm surprised to find that it's still refreshing and not lukewarm like a normal glass of water would be.

What's Worth Noting About the Stanley Tumbler

The Stanley tumbler is not entirely leakproof (I learned this the hard way when I flipped it upside down to test it), but that's not something that's promised by the brand. That might be important to keep in mind if it's a dealbreaker for you. Another thing? It's no stranger to selling out, so if you catch it in stock and want one, consider yourself lucky.

Who Is the Stanley Tumbler Best For?

This tumbler is best for those who want to stay hydrated without having to refill their water bottle over and over again throughout the day. It's also a brilliant gift idea for the person in your life who needs to drink more water or your zeitgeisty friend who knows all of the trends. I'm not sure I'd run through a Target mob in pursuit of one, but it's definitely incentivized me to drink more water throughout the day. And with all the product's unique colorways and designs, anyone can find a style that's perfectly suited to them.

Additional Details

  • The Stanley tumbler keeps beverages cold for up to 11 hours.
  • The tumbler is dishwasher safe.
  • The tumbler is BPA-free and made of 90 percent recycled 18/8 stainless steel.
