As noted, the company calls the Rambler Tumblers “personal drink coolers.” They are made of 18/8 stainless steel with vacuum-insulated walls that regulate ambient liquid temp inside.The BPA-free plastic lid snaps onto the top of the 20oz or 30oz version of the cup. The 20oz lid also moves freely to the company’s Rambler Lowball, a mini version of the
Wholesale Yeti that I’ve come to love.
On average, with the lid on, the
Wholesale Yeti Cups allowed coffee to stay warm for 5 to 6 hours at room temperature. This is vastly longer than my everyday titanium mug.Additionally, the ice jingling in my cocktail one night stayed around longer than my friends’ ice, who were drinking out of glassware. We later tested it more formally, and the Rambler kept ice for over 12 hours, essentially sealing out the temperatures beyond its lid.
We teamed with
Yeti Cups On Sale on a photo contest, and among the prizes are the brand’s Rambler Tumblers insulated cups. I used the occasion to test one out, and from daybreak to sundown, the YETI has become my go-to drinkware.It served as a coffee cup heading out the door in the morning, transformed for drinking iced tea at lunch, and it even accommodated a few sips of whiskey from its stainless cylinder one night.
This is not a replacement for a
Wholesale Yeti Tumblers. The plastic lid fits securely on top and keeps what’s in from splashing out, but you cannot tip it over or throw it in a backpack without spilling.The 18/8 stainless gives a clean palate, with no metallic taste. It’s easy to wash, too, as the cup and lid are both dishwasher safe. Additionally, there was no “coffee ghost” in different drinks, not a hint of residual taste when moving between beverage types although the plastic cap does seem to retain odors more than the cup does.
