YETIRambler 36 oz Bottle, Vacuum Insulated, Leakproof, Stainless Steel with Chug Cap

Didn't bother with pictures, because we all know what it looks like (looks just like the product picture looks like on the listing) with that out of the way, Let's review.I haven't had many insulated cups, thermos, or what the kids are calling them nowadays... Rambler or tumblers. Whatever its called, I like it. I have been using Styrofoam cups for coffee and my cold drinks for years and years now, but recently Smart &Final and other stores have stopped selling them, and their pretty expensive online to buy. I had to find a replacement. So I searched google for "Best insulated cups" and came up with a number of names in the game, and for my needs (mostly cold) one name kept coming up... "Yeti"I needed something more permanent to replace my 32oz Styrofoam cups, and with a name in mind now, I began watching product reviews on youtube on the yeti (and other) brands and found the 36oz offering would better fit my needs. I ordered what I wanted on amazon, accidently ordered 2. Tried to cancel, and although it was still 3 days before it was delivered (black color was out of stock) Amazon wouldn't let me cancel, So bit of an inconvenience for me, having to go thru a return process, but it is what it is. I did eventually get my Yeti.Here are my pros and cons after about 2 weeks of use. *Note* I only use it for cold drinks, I got something else for my hot drinks, So this will only ever be used for cold drinks, particularly soft drinks.Pro:Its easy to use (as it should, its a cup with a lid duh) the size I purchased is right for me, It keeps cold. I put ice near the top when I wake up, and Its still about half full of ice after 24hrs. doesn't leak. The 'Chug cap" is great, you get a nice, decent amount every time you take a drink. and one nice extra kudos for me is, Because of the great 'leak retention' It keeps my soft drinks carbonated longer. I'll wake up the next day to fill it up for the day, and whatever was in the cup for the previous day (if any) still taste nearly as fresh as it was when I first poured it the day before... Huge plus for me.as for the cons, There isn't much to write about, but a few things that I can point out.ConsThe chug cap is great, but as other reviewed have stated, It IS a bit difficult to remove (ease of opening) Now, Its not that big of a deal for me, Since the difficulty of removing it, is also probably the reason why it is so leak proof, and for me, that's more important. Just thought it was worth noting for older users or people with limited strength. *Note* It is easier to remove a tight chug cap, If you remove the lid handle first, to get a better grip on the chug cap. Its not scratch resistant, I haven't scratched the sides or anything yet, nor do I care If I do. Its a cup, not a car. but I have noticed the bottom of the cup getting a little 'wear' on the bottom of it, from sitting on hard surfaces. again, not a big deal to me, just pointing it out. A few people have pointed out how heavy it is, or switching to the 'magdock' lid instead. for me personally, I was going to buy the 'magdock' lid, but the handle lid has grown on me I must say, and while this cup is pretty heavy, the handle lid design helps me get past the weight issue. though you may not like the weight and may want to opt for a smaller size cup, If you're using it to take on runs or something.For me, there isn't much more I can say about it. It does what it was meant to do... Keeps drinks cold, doesn't leak, Keeps my soft drinks carbonated longer. Ice even after 24hrs.I would recommend.

shipped well and arrived quickly. the color is not solid - it's more a speckled look just incase that is what you are expecting. it works for me because I really like the textured look it has. only had it a week but it's keeping my water cold for longer and that is all I needed. it's also easy to use as I was torn between this and the 46oz. highly recommend!

With the Sippy straw, It was the clincher for me, and having ice all day even better, realitive hands free while driving 🚗 😀 the best of both worlds while traveling off road, no spills, no struggles with opening and closing lids, just tip and sip and close or just leave it open while one the go . . . Just get it and see for yourselves

I will always own a Yeti. I lost my other water bottle at work and before I even got home, I ordered a new one. I will say the lighter colors are susceptible to scuff marks which is annoying, but I've read that magic erasers can get rid of them. I typically cover mine in stickers so it's whatever. If that's not your vibe though I'd recommend a darker color.

This thing is perfect for work. I put my chicken shakes piping hot and this keeps it hot. The spout is sized wide enough to drink thick chicken soup out of. to drink and it’s easy to clean. Buy this for your work. You won’t be disappointed. Recommend for sure.

Strangely this was not what I ordered . I was going to return it . I took a second look after a few days and then opened it . It was a real suprise . I love the bottle beak you can drink from . Study beautiful and functional . A bit too large to carry around though . But i love it

The water bottle is wonderful. The delivery was terrible. The driver threw it on my porch. I’m actually surprised that the bottle didn’t get damaged with the way he threw it..

I’ve had this water bottle now for like 4 years. Works like a charm, keeps my water cold if I put ice, or cold water, or both. When you put cold sink water, it could keep it like that for I’d say about half a day? And if you put cold or lukewarm water with ice that could last about 2 days. Ice stays ice for about 2 daysI’d say they get smaller by the end of the day in the evening if you put them early in the morning. I’d say I put ice in at 6 am, they’re smaller in size by 8pm. That’s after refilling it consistently, I’d say 2-3x from almost empty to filled up to the top. If you leave ice cold water in there and don’t touch it, it will last for 2 days as a clump of ice. I put about 2 ice cube trays worth of ice in there. Sometimes more, but typically two. I rarely test this water bottle with hot liquids, so I can’t give you any information on that. This is now my second time purchasing from yeti again, and I’m hoping it’ll last about the same.
