MrGiggles Posted January 21 Posted January 21 1. Make a mid-tier product. 2. Market it to the yuppies and middle class soccer moms as an exclusive premium brand, a status symbol if you will. 3. Profit. I think Stanley is really giving them a run for their money now, the guys in their marketing department need a raise. Never would've expected the maker of grandpa's thermos to have such an impact on the giant cup industry. I was given a Yeti tumbler, it's nice enough I guess, the finish is pretty durable, but the lid leaks if you tip it over. What's the point of having a lid if the darn thing leaks?? I also never understood the concept of a cup that will keep something hot or cold for hours on end. Is it just an accessory? Must not be very thirsty if the cup stays full all day. snagged in outlet 3 1 -Austin

Otherwise you'll scald yourself for hours trying to take a sip of coffee. Terrierman 1

I believe it's Chinese company now, I know they wouldn't honor the lifetime warranty on my old thermoses and none of the many thermoses after that sale lasted very long. Ozark Trail is likely a better value.

MOPanfisher Posted January 23 Posted January 23 I have one Yeti tumblers a twistock lid which I like. However it is not close to the Stanley tumblers for keeping coffee hot. Did have one Stanley tumbler that went bad, it was left in a trash can at a gas station somewhere in Indiana.
