YETI Rambler 18oz Bottle

We are absolute fans of everything in the Yeti line. As active Floridians and frequenters of all of amusement parks, we love having ice cold water available on even the hottest days. We fill the yeti with ice and a bit of water and then continue to replenish with room temperature or chilled water throughout our outings to extend the icy water. This particular rambler is the original size we purchased for single-person use. In this case, our elementary student takes it for PE class. We use the larger rambler size for sharing when out. These ramblers do not sweat, except at the part where the canister threads to the top, but it's very minimal and only when we have a really icy mix of water in there. The large opening at the mouth of the rambler makes it easy for even the smallest child to drink from with no concerns of tipping it too far and spilling. However, you must be careful not to tip it over since the opening is large enough to spill in a couple seconds. These are very durable units and although we have dropped at least one of them a couple times from chest height, we have not dented it. The finish in one has a few nicks in it, but I'll take that over dents, which happened with a non-Yeti brand a few years ago, making that canister no longer able to sit flush on a flat surface. They are pricey, but if you are in a hot climate and want something you won't need to replace due to rough handling, this is your go-to option. Plus, we can pop them in the dishwasher or wash by hand and actually be able to reach our hands into the canister to clean it. No baby bottle brushes required! I highly recommend these.

I've been recommending this to my friends since I got it as a gift last month.this thing keeps water cold or coffee hot for HOURS. I prefer this edition to the Tumbler style for several reasons:1) I have an '86 Dodge without cup holders... I can tighten the lid and set this in the seat next to me on commutes without worrying about spillage.-Note: When I'm in our other car it fits perfectly in our standard car cup holder.2) Same concept, but when I hike or bike, this is the perfect companion. I throw it in my backpack for a couple hour ride and my water is ice cold throughout and hasn't spilled in my pack.3) I can latch the top of the bottle to a pack, tie it to my tube when floating the river in the summer (as I intend to), etc.4) The lid has a great three finger grip. Easy to carry if you'd prefer to hold for a walk.If I had to come up with a complaint, I wish it held more water... however, I needed something as compact as this for the purposes that I use it for... thus it has to be around this size, so this would be a moot point.In summary, this recent purchase is my 2nd of this model. Got two b/c with under 20oz capacity, we will need a couple for hikes longer than a couple of hours. If you have room for the same type of Screw Top Rambler, get it! If not, or for work, school, and short hikes - this is a GREAT bottle to have.PS. Just a note - these are no longer 100% Made in America. These bottles are noted to be Made in China on the bottom.

This is my second Yeti rambler. I have the 32oz and now this one. I ordered a second one due to my coffee cup at work came up missing. I have loved my 32oz Yeti ever since I was hesitant and actually bought it. I have used the 32oz for both hot and cold. I have had ice last three days inside while sitting out in my hot car. Cold liquids stay colder longer than hot will stay hot. If you put hot coffee in it, it will still be rather hot hours later. I typically will leave the lid off at an angle somewhat so as to let the coffee cool down some if I want to start drinking right after filling up. They are durable. Surface wear will show pending on what environments you subject it to. I have had no issues with either Yeti. It took me sometime to actually buy my first one just due to the price alone. After finding 3 day old ice still standing strong in a hot car I was convinced I made a good purchase. The lids on the rambler are also universal. The 32 and 18oz can use the same lid with no issue. The mouth is big enough to fit your nose into so it will not get in the way. They are easy to wash and even dishwasher safe. Compared to tumblers I have had the Yeti is king of the mountain. It helps that the lid completely seals in the liquid with no air flow touching liquid until the lid is removed. This helps tremendously keep the hots hot and colds cold. You will not be disappointed

My wife and I were getting ready to travel overseas and were looking for a couple reusable water bottles. I will say that these fit our needs perfectly! I am fairly picky when it comes to things, so I had a list of criteria that our future water bottles needed to meet (seriously, who has water bottle criteria). One of my frustrations with other bottles we have (ahem, Swell) is that the neck of the bottle is so narrow that you can only put certain ice cubes in it. This is ridiculous to me.. So for our water bottles, I was set on find one that met the following:1. Wide enough neck to fit any ice cubes2. Narrow enough body to fit in vehicle cupholders and backpack bottle sleeve3. A way to attached to a backpack via a carabiner (wife's request)I will end by saying that these bottles fit all of these requirements and I couldn't be more pleased. I have found myself drinking more water and I am thrilled that it keeps ice for over 24hrs. It also has multiple lid attachments if you find yourself wanting a straw or pour top instead.

I have used this water bottle for years and love it! It keeps water cold all day and has held up after a few years of daily use.
