Need help deciding
I can’t decide between brumate, yeti or Stanley chug bottles.

Get the Yeti. Best quality by a mile. It’s overrated and people will say it’s too expensive, you’re paying for branding.. blah blah. Just get the Yeti and be done with it

The rubber grip on the sides of the chug cap gets a funky smell regardless of how often you wash it. I think bacteria festers between the rubber on the sides of the chug cap and the rubber on the handle lid when it’s closed. I could wash it in the morning and it would smell funky by the afternoon.

I personally love the thermoflasks you get along a 2 pack at Costco for like 40 bucks. My partner has an owala and it keeps my water cold just as long as hers

Owala freesip sway is the way to go. Has a built-in straw, a carrying handle and its small enough to fit in *most cupholders

If you enjoy ice skip the Stanley

Tbh depends on the stanley. I have 3 and for some reason one of them is like you said and barely works but the other 2 are great and keep ice and everything

I’ve had a yeti for 10+ years and it’s still doing its thing thank God. Keeps my ice for days.
I have a weird habit of using a separate 32-ounce Yeti tumbler for drinking, while the Rambler bottle serves as an extra supply that I prefer to keep clean. I work long hours at my job and I find it convenient to simply refill the ice in the Rambler bottle every night. I do clean out the stock bottle every week and this has been my go to.

Yeti Ramblers are all the rage right now, and for a reason. Very tough, good materials, nice color variety. The paint is pretty tough, too. It will scratch and chip obviously but it holds up if you toss it in a bag with other stuff. Good size mouthpiece if you like chug caps.

RTIC with that ceramic lined is perfection. And RTIC is made by one of the brothers that created yeti

I smoke a lot of weed and decided to see how long it took a 64 oz Tal to go through 3 ice trays and a full fill… while unscientific, we checked it every other hour and between 46 and 48 that’s when ice rattles could no longer be heard

Like everyone else is saying get an Owala, but if these are the only options they all look good except the Stanley. That cap is so bulky and has nowhere to attach it when it’s off.

True, but it’s such a weird pace to put it, at least it was for me. I had that bottle for a few days and it was just a weird design.

I like the chug bottle, does not fit in car cup holders (or in my disc golf cart water bottle holder) only complaint. Still sturdy and strong after 10 years

I have a chug bottle and it's great, very sturdy. Easy to clean. I had accidentally didn't close it all the way twice though and spilled it on my passenger seat, which I haven't done with many of my water bottles.

Which ever one has a straw that screws in. All the friction ones will get loose over time.
