To determine whether the tumbler is BPA Free, you can first look at the bottom. If it has the new "Tervis" logo across the center of the bottom of the cup, you can be absolutely sure it's BPA free. If you have the old logo, it will say "Tervis Tumbler" around the edge of the bottom.
The Tervis Tumbler 16oz had lost 158 grams of its original 163 grams of ice. The YETI Rambler 20oz is starting to look good already. The YETI Rambler 20 oz. Clearly the winner at this point, nearly 8 hours in to the test, is the YETI Rambler.
They can keep your drink ice-cold for 24 hours!Well, they'll keep that piping hot for 8 hours too. I'm serious. We also love this set of Tervis wine tumblers.
Here's how to clean your travel tumbler
- Take the whole thing apart. Break your tumbler down into as many pieces as possible before you start washing.
- Use warm water and dish soap. Always use hot, soapy water to clean.
- Get into hard-to-reach places.
- Dry all of the pieces thoroughly before you reassemble it.
I have many friends who have been using the same Tervis tumblers daily for 15 or 20 years. Although they don't look new, they still look good enough to use even when they have guests over. For me, the 16 oz size is perfect for general use.
The double-wall insulation is made by inserting a liner inside an outer shell, creating a layer of air between them. The two liners are then permanently fused together. The insulation reduces condensation and keeps beverages hotter or colder longer than non-insulated cups and glasses.
Tervis keeps drinks hot and cold with ultra-sonically sealed double-walled insulation, reducing condensation and making them virtually indestructible. Tervis tumblers are also dishwasher, microwave, and freezer safe.
The tumblers will keep your soda, beer, wine, smoothie, or mixed drinks ice cold. And the Colster Can Insulators are like a steel bear hug for your cans and longnecks. They're designed for easy loading, drinking, and cleaning. Select Rambler sizes come in a range of Duracoat™ Colors.

The Best Tumbler
- Our pick. Hydro Flask 22-ounce Tumbler. The best tumbler. This slim, powder-coated tumbler fits easily in hands and cup holders, and that's why we love it.
- Runner-up. Klean Kanteen 20-ounce tumbler. Nearly identical.
- Also great. Yeti Rambler 20-ounce tumbler. Heftier, squatter, bomber-feeling.
The lid of the travel tumblers is not spill proof (so don't go tipping your cups upside down), but it has a cover for the hole on top to keep from hot coffee messes all over your car when driving down a bumpy road. If you live in a town like mine with a plethora of potholes, you'll be grateful for this feature!
Just like with the ceramic mugs, put the cup in a bag of rice (or add heat) and see if the water is pulled out (or evaporates out) through those invisible little cracks. If it does not, your only option may be to drill a hole in your mug. That way the water can escape.
The Yeti 10 oz tumbler is the best Yeti for smaller coffees. It's thin enough to fit in any cup holder and comes with the MagSlider lid. The Yeti 12 oz bottle with hotshot cap is the best leakproof Yeti for coffee and the 20 oz Travel Mug with handle and leak proof lid is the best for the long commute coffee drinkers.
Materials like plastic, glass or ceramics are usually safe to use in the microwave because they don't contain water and the electrons aren't free to move around.
The short answer is no; microwaving a Yeti is not safe. Yeti drinkware, including mugs, tumblers, jugs, and bottles, is made from high-quality 18/8 stainless steel. Steel, like aluminum or any other conductive metal, does not mix well with radiation emitted by microwaves.
If your cup is made from ceramic (and does not contain any metal), it is almost certainly fine to microwave. You might want to check the bottom to see if it says it's ok, but even if it doesn't, it should be fine. Here is a list of microwaveable travel mugs.
The water bottle and lid are dishwasher safe, top rack only.
Typically the dishwasher safe symbol looks like a square box with some plates or glasses (or both) inside it. This is true for both top rack and generally dishwasher safe items. You'll also see either water droplets or diagonal lines that are meant to signify water.
No, you can't take the glass apart. It is one piece. Do you find this helpful? No - you cannot.
Is Tervis Drinkware BPA-free? Yes, as of 2011, all Tervis drinkware is BPA free.
