Stanley cupsare truly all the rage lately.
The 40 fl. oz stainless steel, vacuum-sealed tumbler retails for $45. It features a no-spill lid and tapered base to fit into cup holders.
One of the main draws for why consumers love their trusty cups is that they’re made to keep drinks cold for hours. Per the website, the Quencher in particular can keep beverages hot for up to 7 hours, cold for 11 hours and iced for a whopping two days.

Known for their “built to last” properties, Stanley cups have had several viral moments, including one earlier this month.
The products became Target’s hottest commodity after the food and beverage container brand released two Target-exclusive Quencher H2.0 FlowState Tumblers. The tumblers come in Cosmo Pink and Target Red and are a part of the brand’s “Galentine’s Collection.”
Although the holiday is over a month away, the double-wall vacuum-insulated tumblers priced at $45 have sold out online and across Target stores nationwide after their initial Dec. 31 drop.
The comment section contained mixed reactions, with one individual writing, “I love Stanley, but I will not do this for a cup.” Another person commented, “All for a Stanley?”
Another video on TikTok filmed at a Target in Goodyear, Arizona, explained that tumblers sold out in less than four minutes. The video showed people of all ages rushing to grab one from the store’s display stand.
One TikTok user commented, “Stanley definitely knows what they are doing. Everyone and their mom wants one. IDK I still can’t wrap my head around paying that much for a cup.”
According toDelish, the tumblers are already up on resale sites like eBay, listed at prices up to $240.
Stanley offers lots of products. Another popular tumbler model is the Iceflow Flip Straw Tumbler, which features a no-spill straw perfect for on-the-go use.
Like the Quenchers, the Iceflow model comes in a variety of sizes and models with the 30 fl. oz bottle retailing for $35. Per the website, it can keep drinks cold for up to 12 hours and iced for two days.
