And the flip-top and straw lids both have removable rubber gaskets, which you can pop out to do a deeper cleaning. A tumbler can also replace disposable cups at fast-food restaurants or gas stations. Of all the tumblers we tested, the 24-ounce Simple Modern Classic Tumbler impressed us the most. This stainless steel, double-walled vessel was among the most leak-resistant tumblers we tried. It also kept our drinks as cold as—and, in some instances, colder than—tumblers bearing more-recognizable brand names. I also took into consideration how cold or hot to the touch each tumbler was when filled with liquid and tipped each one over to see if they would leak.
And they both really did seem pretty similar in performance and are both fantastic tumblers to consider. In the heart of the Ozarks’ wilderness, a passion for exploration was kindled. This space serves as an homage to that undying spirit of adventure and as a community for those inspired by Ozark Trail’s commitment to crafting reliable outdoor gear. Although the paths may run parallel, the stories of each adventurer intertwine with every trek and trail.
My own personal beverage drama every summer has really pushed me to do this review. To me, worrying about the temperature of the drinks I have on my boat is the absolute last thing I want to be thinking about when I am heading out on the water. Cooler’s have become somewhat of a status symbol in the outdoors and many equate the bigger brands with better quality. A higher price tag should mean a higher quality product, right?
Watching ice melt was probably the most difficult task of the tests I performed—only because it seemed to take forever for the ice to melt in each tumbler. I started the test first thing when I got to the office and was waiting for hours on end. By the time I left the office about eight hours later, the ice still wasn’t entirely melted and the water levels in both tumblers seemed to be at the same level. The ice in the Orca Chaser melted at the 11 hour 35 minute mark for second place in the test. But the ice melted fast as the side of the smaller tumbler took a lot of heat.
