WTH ever happened to ''made in the USA'' Stanley Thermos's? Hell I have been using one for over 20 years and it keeps liquids hot or cold for as long as the ''new'' stuff. I can make coffee at 6AM and it's still too hot to drink at 6PM.

It's dented, wobbles, been dropped off work trucks, equipment, pickup beds, and has a patina only a thermos that has ''been around'' can have.

It ain't a thermos but it gets the job done.  Have yet to use the cups, though...

I picked this up at the same time I picked up my first Zark Lyfe 30oz'r.

I have a 64 oz RTIC that I used only a couple times.  Only used it for ice water and the water tasted like metal for some reason.  And before anyone asks if I washed the thing, yes. I dawned and scrubbed the inside of that thing like it owed me money.

Anyone tips on getting rid of the funky taste?  Or should i just mix a god tier size cocktail in it, or have some place fill it will overhyped beer?

Get the 64oz

Pre chill in the freezer

Pour five cold Landshark lagers in

Pour three shots of freezer kept Bacardi Limon in

Add a fat lime wedge

Enjoy on a warm summer afternoon

Thank me later

Maybe try putting some lemon juice and salt, or lemon juice and baking soda, in it and then using that to scrub the sides with a long brush.  Sometimes in the polishing process shiny metal ends up with residue in/on it that is hard to get out with regular detergents.

I am pretty sure the same factory in China makes Yeti cups and bottles also make the ozark trail.  My ozark trail 30oz cups perform as well as Yeti at a fraction of the cost.  Expecting the bottles to perform the same for a small fraction of the cost.

Since we're showing off new OT stuff...

I know most everyone has heard about the 40oz tumblers, even if you can't find them but, who knew there was a 40oz powder coated OT tumbler?

And just to show it's not one I had powder coated, here's the label with item number and UPC.

Yeti cups are like cast iron pans - they don't get dirty, they get seasoned.  And if someone tries to put them in the dishwasher they get kicked in the nuts.

What am I missing here? I can't find either of these OT water bottles on the Wal Mart web site or anywhere else for that matter.

I love their tumblers but a sealed bottle would be much more ideal for on the go use.

Is it so new it's not showing up online yet?

Fine for both questions.  It's metal, you can leave shit in there until it mutates into a living organism and all you have to do is wash it out with hot water and detergent and scrub the fuck out of it.  Both the thirty and fo-tay ounce tumblers fit any standard cup holder.

I used the RTIC cup handle on my 30 and it made the perfect balance on the cup so it wouldn't fall out with some sharp turns.  Unfortunately, no one's making accessories fo da fo-tay yet...

I do not have the label for the smaller bottle.   However I snapped a pic of the upc on the 64oz for you.  I have not been able to find either bottle on the Walmart website for some reason.

There was a spot on the shelf for both of them at my local Walmart, but they were empty.

Saw the 40oz tumbler for the first time too. Both powder coated and naked.

Get a big bottle brush, Bon Ami or Comet, and a power drill to clean out  essence of coffee from an old thermos.


I checked my W-M for the new bottle. They aren't out yet.  Things are changing over, but those aren't to be found.

My WM had a few of the 36oz on the shelf, but no 64 oz, but there where slots on the shelf for them. I picked up two 36oz for use in the woods this weekend.

Here are the tags, in case anyone needs them.

My local store had both the 36 oz and 64 oz in stock. Also has the new tinted lids for the Yeti cup knock off with a sliding cover over the straw hole for under $3. Also spotted a package of straws with a tactical bore snake brush to clean the inside of the straws on the shelf.

I just went hunting for the 'OT bottles' and bought the last 64 oz. version at my local WM for <$15.  

They had plenty of the 36 oz. bottles, but only one of the bigger ones, so for $5 more, I went with that.

It's got a welded seam on the inside, differing from the tumblers, as do the 36 oz. versions, as an FYI.  I got it home, washed the cap, O-ring and insides with soapy water.

Pre-heated it with ~110* tap water for 10 minutes, heated 64 oz. of water up to ~172.5*, poured that in and capped it.

We'll see where it is in a few hours, as I just passed the 1 hour mark.

Ambient temps here in Miami are about 76* in the kitchen.

I have the new Bass Rape Shops spring & hunting catalogs here and they have the Yeti stuff listed, with their 64 oz. bottle selling for $89.99, lol.

The 36oz serves no purpose for me, because I already have 32oz Yeti cups, if I only want to take and keep thirty something ounces of beverage hot or cold.

But there are plenty of times when I want to take a lot of beverage somewhere and a cooler filled with ice isn't necessary or practical - 64oz of iced tea to a picnic, 64oz of cold water to a baseball game, 64oz of coffee or hot chocolate to a Christmas parade, 64oz of mixed drinks to the pool.  The 64oz will get used a lot.

That's how I figured it and I had both the 36oz and 64oz in my hands on the way to the checkout.

Put the smaller one back and bought a Smith's dual diamond hone instead.
