The Hydro Flask Travel Tumbler — she’s perfect
Stanley tumblers nearly took over the world in the early 2020s, but I somehow held out on the trend. I stayed loyal to my trusty Nalgene and YETI Rambler, but I reached a point where I was sick and tired of unscrewing my lid and spilling on myself while driving.
The Stanley Quencher was the obvious, in-my-face solution, but I just couldn’t get myself to join the masses. But after years of denying myself the pleasure and convenience of an oversized, insulated metal beverage container, the Hydro Flask Travel Tumbler walked into my life and changed it.
What is the Hydro Flask Travel Tumbler?
Very similar to the Stanley Quencher, the Hydro Flask Travel Tumbler (available in both 32oz and 40oz) has the same basic features. The TempShield®️ double-wall vacuum insulation will keep your drink cold and your ice frozen for hours, even when it’s left in your car on a sweltering summer day.
The ergonomic handle and cup holder compatibility make it the best copilot. You can safely stay hydrated and let your actual copilot stay focused on DJing and wayfinding.
How it’s different
The flexible straw is honestly just more fun to drink out of. It’s still super durable and will stand up to some occasional, light chewing (not that I would ever do that…).
The Hydro Flask Travel Tumbler is also leak-resistant and splash-resistant. Of course, if you turn it upside down, water will come out, but if you accidentally knock it over or have it sitting on your couch at a slight angle (just trying to come up with some real-life examples here) it won’t spill!
What else should you know
Super important note, it is BPA-free and lead-free—yay! You can easily wash it in the dishwasher, which we love. Also important, the tumbler has a pure, clean taste. Sometimes metal water bottles taste like you’re drinking out of a metal water bottle, but that is not the case with the Hydro Flask Travel Tumbler.
Last but not least, the colors are super cute. Please keep in mind that you really only need one of these and it should last you for years to come.
Happy hydrating,
