Hydrapeak Roadster 40 oz Tumbler with Handle and Straw Lid, Convenient 2 in 1 Lid, Tumbler Lid Straw, 40oz Tumbler With Handle (Black)

TLWR;Great cup that works as stated, unless you get a faulty lid, which Hydrapeak will warranty, or you can play the exchange game with Amazon until you get a good one.Get one if this cup fits your needs, and if you can deal with a little adversity if needed!----------------------------------------------------------I'll start by saying that my go to insulated cup is my trusty Bubba Hero XL that has lasted years of abuse and is still going strong and I will always recommend it. The lid is leakproof and I use a silicone straw, but to close it requires pulling the straw out (not always an option) or shoving the straw into the cup before closing and having to take the lid off to retrieve it. Other features that it has that I like are a silicone/rubber bottom and an open bottom handle (which I use to hang it on my work cart or even a pant pocket).I was looking for a larger cup with all the same features as the Bubba AND also a built in straw that's still leakproof. This has it all, but the reviews make it seem like it's too good to be true.The first one I purchased works very well. It's the bare steel model and it came with a small dent in it's side. I can't knock Hydrapeak for that, because we all know the randomness/barrenness of Amazon handling and packaging, lol. It is only a little larger than the Bubba, and it's mostly in the bottom diameter which means it'll fit in less cupholders than the Bubba. It fits in my car's cupholder just fine. I decided that if the dent didn't compromise the insulation, I'd keep it.My first test was filling it up 7/8's full of tap water, remembering to pop the sippy end as I installed it (remember, ANY Leakproof lid from ANY manufacturer NEEDS to be vented when installed) and leaving it upside down on a silicone drying mat for an hour to check its leakproof-ness. Verdict, 100% Leakproof.Second, for insulation effectiveness, I filled it 1/3 of ice and 1/2 of tap water (leaving 1/6 of the cup free), installing the lid and set it on the counter for 24 hours. It still had a little bit of ice left after that, so with proper cooling (chilling the interior of the cup before adding ice and refrigerated liquid) this cup should easily keep your drink cold for the claimed 34 hours. 👍Now we come to the dreaded straw. When I first had the cup in hand, I flipped it up and took a pull. It felt like sucking on a straw against my hand, a tight vacuum. I noticed that the silicone vent was real tiny. Popping the sippy lid released the vacuum, so I said, "not a big deal if it helps the straw work properly." After testing the leakproof-ness, I flipped the straw and took another pull and it worked. The vacuum effect had almost vanished, only noticable when you flip the sippy lid open. When I finish a cup, the vacuum returns. None of this is a deal breaker for me.Built-in flip straws are very uncommon in cup lids. Most adult drinking vessels with them are bottles and that's not what people who are looking at this cup are looking for. If you get one built like mine, you shouldn't be disappointed. BUT if you don't get one like mine...* Here's the asterisk.I bought a second one for my mother, in the Rainbow color. The only thing I initially noticed different was the rubbery coating used on it. Has a great feel and seems durable.The next day I got a call from her telling me the straw wasn't working! So I stopped by to look at it. After close examination, I discovered that there are 2 versions of the 2 way lid. In picture 1, my lid has a large gasket that wraps around the 'nozzle' area for the straw which actually protrudes into the cup deeper and comes with a shorter straw. The rainbow cup lid in picture 2 has a small donut shaped gasket that had dislodged along the way. The flipper end didn't look like it was seated correctly as well. Even getting the gasket in place didn't correct it. It still didn't work. So it was time to contact Hydrapeak for a new lid.As I sent word for a replacement with Hydrapeak, I ordered a third cup. I know, crazy, but Amazon has an amazing return policy, so why not find out how bad it can be ASAP? Well, the second rainbow came with the same small gasket lid, but everything seemed installed correctly and it worked just like my first one did.Hydrapeak did contact me back, apologized and said they'd send me a replacement. We'll see how long that takes and I'll update this if and when I get the replacement lid or if there are any other issues.****Update****Received the replacement lid very quickly. They said they'd send me shipping info first, but it just showed up a week after the correspondence. It is the same style as my first one.Hydrapeak, you rock! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I love this and use it through the day at home - with cats that knock drinks over it's ideal.It is chunky, sturdy and seems well made. The handle is comfortable and easy to use and the top stays on well. I chose purple and it's a soft, pastel colour which is lovely. I have only used it for hot drinks; it keeps them very hot for about 12 hours so I put a some cold water in the bottom and leave the lid off to let it cool a little to be able to drink my coffee right away. There's no metallic taste either.Highly recommended.

The is THE BEST to-go cup I have ever used. I love that the large 40oz cup fits securely in my car cup holders. cup itself and the top are made very well- very durable. I have a nugget ice maker and I love nugget ice but it melts more quickly than regular ice but NOT IN HERE! I filled it with ice and lemonade on 98 degree day, left it in the car for a couple hours, brought it back inside, went to wash it 2 days later and there's still ice in there!!! The only very minor complaint that I have is that when you put the lid on, some of the drink shoots out of the top of the straw part, and thats probably because I overfilled it, so just do it in the sink.This is and excellent product, especially for the price. I highly recommend!!

I really love drinking super cold water from an insulated water bottle with a straw, but I had issues with the ones I had.The Starbucks tumbler didn't keep my drink cold, condensation would form outside of the cup if it was too cold. It also molded after a few years.Camelbak I bought years ago (now appears discontinued) had a stainless steel body and better insulaton, but made a horrible loud whistle noise and would spray water on me when I flipped the top.The Hydrapeak Roadster was way better than I expected. My water is super cold and stays cold. It is large and I refill it at least 1-2 times a day. It is easy to hold despite the size and weight. And the straw is silent. It also fits in my cup holder, but depending on your car, it can partially take over the passenger one too.My only complaints are the gloss didn't survive a kayaking trip and got scratched. Totally fine - I just covered it with a sticker. I also don't like how hard it is to take the lid off. Often times the straw gets bent or pops off, which I giess is why they give you two. If the straw attachment could somehow twist on to secure, that would make this perfect.

Let’s face it, the Coleman is the rage cup ATM. I am not however, going to spend a ridiculous amount of money on a utilitarian item if I can find something that does EXACTLY what it does, and I can save the money…Here comes along this cup. I wanted an insulated cup with a minimum 32 Oz (goal is 2 xs a day) a handle, a sip hole and a straw that did NOT stay in the up position as I toss this baby in a bag, in my car seat AND my cup holder. I few the straw in the constant up position just has a higher chance of getting dirty and you put that thing in your mouth!All of those are pros, at a fraction of the cost w this cup. I honestly don’t know why the Coleman became such a hit but if you prefer to spend your money elsewhere and want the same features, get this one. OH! When you fill this cup with your liquids, make sure you open the sip hole before you close the lid. It has such a great pressure seal, that when you close the lid, it will spit your drink right in your eye via the straw if open ;-) Keep that sip hole open and not just the straw- trust me. It also keeps a drink cold forever in the TX heat, in the sun, when the cup is black… Just get it.
