If you read the article out loud in a "Jackie Stewart" type voice it's like a play-by-play tumbler commentary reminiscent of him calling the Indy 500 or Daytona 500.
Of course, you have to be old enough to know who Jackie Stewart is.

It better know! I packed my lunch in one today. I was told that it knew how to keep hot things hot and cold things cold. So I packed a cup of soup and a popcicle! Can't wait for lunch break!
I once did a test of various cups and travel mugs.
The styrofoam ones were not any better at resisting temp changes than thin glass or plastic. But a real vacuum bottle with a super thick insulated lid really works.

I guess I'm just not cool enough for a YETI. I still use a $10 glass vacuum thermos with a cork and rubber stopper (estate sale) that has a 1904 patent date, LOL!
"This is by no means a scientific test". Can you at least get something from a peer reviewed journal?! Wait until Pelican gets in the game. It will be cheaper than the Yeti, hold ice longer, and will weigh at least 10 pounds.
My wife received an insulated Yeti knock off called the Boss, as part of an award she received from Georgia Power. The thing keeps ice for 8 to 10 hrs. Come to find out it's made where ''CHINA''.

I suspect that unlike the coolers all of these insulated cups are made in the same place and then re-branded. I haven't researched enough to know or care honestly. The coolers are probably where the biggest difference is, but RTIC has copied the Yeti to where the coolers are practically the same as well.
It might be dumb to spend that kind of money to some people, but those same people might spend many times that on something else I would consider dumb. It's all relative (or as someone I know says, "It's all relevant").

I got all that other **** beat. Before we moved down here from Perry me and my landlord bought and 04 Jetta TDI wagon and there was a case of the promotional travel mugs in the back still in the plastic bags. Stainless inside of plastic keeps coffee hot way longer than you want it to. In fact I take the lid off when I use mine.
Cost? Zero,nothing. So it's either priceless or worthless.You decide.
I save a bunch of money by just eating and drinking everything at room temperature -- it will eventually be 98.6 anyway by the time my body uses it.
