RTIC 30oz Tumbler Test
GrateEggspectations
Posts: 11,597
I just received my order of the RTIC 30oz Tumbler and wanted to share my impressions.
I decided to test the tumbler by gauging whether it was capable of maintaining ideal temperatures over a given period.
Naturally, I gravited to two 12oz cans of adult beverage for the trial and poured the 24oz into the tumbler (no ice). The following are my observations.
After rigorous testing, I can confidently report that the tumbler held the 24oz of liquid at a consistently enjoyable temperature for the duration it was employed. The tumbler was highly effective in keeping the liquid cool for the entirety of the 12 minutes that it spent in its vessel.
However, to ensure that no one will try to poke holes in my methodology, I suppose I should plan to conduct several additional trials under identical conditions.
Happy Canada Day.

@paqman: I mentioned that I wanted to get one to my brother-in-law and I believe he ordered it from Amazon.com and had it shipped to Rhode Island (where he works during the week). Was dirt cheap, at $25 or so CAD.
However, I note that there are a few options at Amazon.ca:

If you simply want to pick up a nice tumbler locally and don't mind paying more, they carry Yeti at MEC, on Richmond. The 30oz is $50 (plus tax), while the 20oz is $38, from what I recall.
I'm thinking it'll be good for hot days when I'm out by the pool or by the grill for extended periods.

Did you actually see it at MEC? The last time their website was showing stock, I went to the store and nobody ever seen them. Shortly after, it disappeared friends m their website.... But it looks like it is back.____________________Entrepreneurs are simply those who understand that there is little difference between obstacle and opportunity and are able to turn both to their advantage. •Niccolo Machiavelli

Only saw it on the site. However, if you went in and they didn't have it in store, I'm assuming you could get it transferred over (or simply have it shipped to your house, which would be easier).

RTIC and Yeti stuff is pretty much similar in quality based on everything I've seen.

Thanks. Would have gotten an Ozark, had they carried them at the Walmart in my area (or on the Walmart Canada website).
