    I got one last weekend. I love it! I tested it out while running some errands. Ice lasted pretty much all day, although I never refilled with room temp water, always was chilled or iced. However, even when leaving it in the hot car for over an hour, it didn't appear much ice melted. Aside from possibly the Hydroflask, this thing works better than anything else I've used! You'll love it!

    I got one last week as well. It's amazing!!! The thing has been pretty much full since the second I got it. I haven't tried it with hot beverages yet, but with cold it works as advertised. I left it full of ice water in a hot car on an 85 degree day, went to see a movie, and there was almost no meltage at all when we got back to the car. 

    Enjoy!

    Love mine as well. I have had the ice last over 24hrs, not saying huge pieces but little pieces of ice floating around. The water was still cold though! It is the best $30 that I have spent in a long time. Their colster works well too.

    I've got two of the 20's I love them.  My only complaint is that I wish I had 4 more

    I love mine, it holds a pint of beer easily, or two cans of domestic slop no problem.    Great for the hot tub!

    Have had incredible results with Hydro Flask insulated cups as well.

    Their beer growler type things (32 oz, 40 oz, 64 oz) have a pressure release built into the lid.  You can pour draft beer in there or dump out a bottle and it'll be cold and crispy when you drink it hours later.  Crazy...

    Are they good at keeping things warm as well?  I may have to invest in a couple of these if they are.  I have no need for the Yeti cooler right now.  I don't need to keep ice in a cooler for more then a day at home.  We don't do any camping or major long trips that justify one yet, they do seem to be the top dog in ice chest though.

    Mine arrived yesterday and I've not been home to use it yet.  My first Yeti!  My budget will most likely limit me to Yeti drinkware.

    i put two tea bags in the 30 in the morning, you need to pour it into a cup for the first 3 hours as its too hot to drink from the 30, 3 hours more and its more warm than hot but still drinkable
