@@andreamolyneux1091 can I help you in any way? More explanation maybe? I’m sorry you struggled! They are difficult to maneuver, but I wanted to share to try to help others once I understood how to disassemble for cleaning.
1:47 How the hell do you just press down on it like that? Mine doesn't fit in, I have to use excessive force to get just one of the ends in, but dunno have to get the other end in.
Press in on the extension posts at the same time, so that they will become smaller than the hole. I'm assuming you're referring to the extension posts.
Oh no! I'm so sorry. That sounds like your lid might have been defective. We have a total of 5 Stanley cups in our home and we've never had a problem with tabs breaking. Did you push in on the tabs to get them in and out of the hole?
Oh my God thank you I almost just broke my fingers trying to open it, but I couldn’t get it open because like I thought I saw a mold because I never knew how to take it off to clean it so like thank you because now I’m gonna clean all of my Stanley
I found a Stanley tumbler at my job; glad I did because I wasn’t gonna BUY one. I threw away the straw (gross-wasn’t gonna use that!), took off and broke down the lid, and basically treated the whole thing like it was a biohazard, lol. Boiled it in a pot with bleach and soap, scrubbed it to death then boiling soapy water again. It’s cleaner than it was when it left the factory. 😂
With the fatter part at the top. I honestly leave mine off most of the time because it's just easier. If you leave it off, it won't be leakproof though if you plan on turning your cup upside down or leaning it over. I haven't had any problems with leaving it off. Best wishes!
This was really helpful because I had got the the top part of the Stanley, so like the rubber part that’s on the arms Stanley thing I don’t know how to explain. I got that I took, took it off by mistake because I was trying to clean it and I did not know how to get it back on and I was freaking out until I saw this video and I did exactly what you did and it helps so much but it was kind of hard to do it. Thank you.
@@KarenCarnes I pulled straw out the wrong way and can't get the little rubber piece back in correctly so I'll just shelve the thing and go back to my YEDI
@@timturner9315 I'm so sorry. I have another video that shows a few more details on taking the lid apart and putting back together if you want to try again.
I honestly don't have any extra time on my hands. I made this video to show my daughter, who is away in college how to clean her Stanley. Mold can make you sick and most people don't realize there can be mold in several places of the lid. Thanks for watching!
Sorry! I honestly leave mine off because the seal is too strong and I can’t get my lid off without help. I haven’t had any problems with leakage when I leave it off.
@@allisonpleitez7188i had this problem too but i think i figured it out! its kinda hard to explain typing but the flat part goes on the top and the open flap things go on the side so one is facing the lid and one faces out. i hope this helped!!
