Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I did the ice test!! So I did my own (be it possibly a bit crude) ice test on this amazing tumbler and the results were fantastic! I had already done a test on my RTIC 30 oz tumbler against a friend's Yeti, so I knew my RTIC would be a great tester for this Simple Modern 30 oz tumbler (Ie, the test might as well have been against a Yeti). The photos are here and I hope they are legible but basically the test went like this, I filled both tumblers to the top with crushed ice and sat them out in full sun at 5:00 PM on a day that was 84 degrees. They sat overnight and the next morning at 11:00 AM it was 78 degrees outside and they were going strong. Both still had the same of ice left. At 1:00 PM, it was 85 degrees outside and the outside of both were warm (again it was full sunlight on a very hot day) but the inside were cold, still lots of ice. At 5:00 PM, exactly 24 hours later, it was 86 degrees outside and there was STILL a decent amount of ice left. At 9:00 PM that next night (28 hours after starting the test) STILL an even amount of ice in the tumblers. At 7:00 AM the next morning (38 hours after starting the test), it was 74 degrees outside and I could tell the ice had just finally given up, but I tested the temperature of the water and it was 35 degrees for the Simple Modern and 32 degrees for the RTIC. The difference was minimal enough in my opinion to call it a tie as I did not weigh the ice or anything before putting it in the cup so the difference easily could have been that one actually had a little more or less than the other. At the end of it, for a tumbler like this to be as good of quality as the Yeti Rambler for a fraction of the price is a WIN. The tumbler itself is gorgeous (if a tumbler can be gorgeous). It fits perfectly in my standard size cup holder in the car and sips easily. The only thing I wish it had (maybe a tweak on the next version) is a place big enough in the lid to hold a tumbler straw (they're a little larger than a standard size straw). It does fit a standard size straw but then it doesn't stick out the top much to drink comfortably. That's a small thing when compared to value here though and if you don't care about straws then it's a non issue. This tumbler is amazing and although I received it at small discount in exchange for my honest and unbiased review, my opinions are my own and I have given a true comparison of this tumbler against the RTIC (and essentially the Yeti Rambler). I hope this helps and if it does, click the yes button. :) UPDATE July 13, 2017 Someone just commented today that my tenure helped them make a decision so I thought I would post an update. It's been over a year since I've owned this tumbler. I use it nearly daily and it's as good today as it was when I bought it. I use it for my smoothies in the mornings and I just love it. I do not put it the dishwasher ever. Hand wash only and I recommend the same. Hope that helps!
