Why Is the Stanley Tumbler So Popular?
Stanley tumblers have been trending and have yet to lose their glow, thanks in a huge part to social media. A TikTok search for “Stanley tumbler” pulls up an endless scroll of videos that total more than 50 million views at the time of publishing. Throw in seasonal colorways, limited edition runs, and celebrity collaborations, and you’ve got a recipe for why Stanley tumblers constantly sell out across big-box stores and pique interest at suburban garage sales (thanks, khaki dads!).
Where To Buy a Stanley Tumbler
First things first: a Stanley tumbler isn’t going to roll your way without a bit of effort. A quick Google search is where you should start, or you could always take the longer but perhaps as satisfying route through an estate sale or secondhand store. There are countless water bottles out there, and you probably have a hefty arsenal in your kitchen as you read this, but trends don’t care about practicality. (Okay, maybe this one kind of does.)
A Stanley tumbler is a statement piece, though, goshdarnit. To make sure that you have one that is the real deal, look for the brand’s block letters on the curve of the cup. The Stanley Adventure Tumbler Quencher, the most popular version, has a U-shaped handle that just so happens to be ideal for selfies, plus a lid with a straw.

If you don’t care about having this specific name stretched across your adult sippy cup, then there are endless copycats with equally appealing colors in similar shapes and sizes — yep, lid and straw included. Unsurprisingly, they’re cheaper than the real Stanleys, too, which is always worth a brag.
How To Clean Your Stanley Tumbler
It’s always a good idea to hand-wash your Stanley with plain ol’ soap and water — yes, the thing you ordinarily keep inside it — on a regular basis. While the 40-ounce version, the trendiest one, is technically dishwasher-safe, I’d only do that in a pinch. After all, this is a piece that’s meant to be seen, so the last thing you want people to spot is an unfortunate scratch or peel.
A bottle brush is wise for Stanley cup devotees who’ll stick to handwashing, but you can also use bottle-cleaning tablets. Those are especially good to have on hand if you’ll be carrying hot coffee in this tumbler, too.
