Are You Cleaning Your Insulated Cups Properly? 

It blows my mind how this is a shock to anybody. Did you think it magically cleaned itself?

This is actually embarrassing. I thought it would be common sense to clean any cup/bottle after you use it.

So I’m assuming cleaning a cup you use every would be an everyday thing but maybe I’m just not in the “ IN CROWD “ LMAO😂😂😂😂😂

All those types of cups seem annoying to clean hence why I don’t have any.

Find one without any rubber or silicone. It's less insulating, but easier to clean

I cannot believe in 2024 you have to tell "adults" to clean their water bottle🤦‍♀️ Wash them in the sink thoroughly AND let them wash and sanitarize in the dishwasher.

And have yall never washed toddlers sippy cups? Same thing😂

A 3 minute exposé reminding us to wash our dishes? Just what I needed. Now I can get started on this pile that's been building for 35 years. Thanks 🙄

What’s so special about a cup? The new trend is dumb 😂

kids get excited about getting a drinking cup for xmas?...not a toy...a drinking cup?

just stick to Yeti and Rtic, they're easier to clean.

This is how all ice machines get when not maintained at least once every month. A lot of restaurants sometimes don't do their maintenance for months, and mold/bacteria grow like crazy as well as touching the ice every time it's making the ice.

A good tip; smell it on the inside. If it smell funky; clean that gunky.

Imagine trying to flex on people that you have a Stanley cup 😭😭😭

And at the end of the year they’re going to be collecting dust in the back of peoples cupboards.

A good set of bottle brushes is a must-have for any water bottle.

My drink holder, a Contigo, gets a good wash in hot soapy water every time it’s emptied throughout the day. Washing daily is emphasized in the included instructions. Why on earth would anyone keep using their cup day after day without washing it? We’ve become a population of lazy fools! Folks get very sick from unwashed thermal containers frequently, essentially they poison themselves. I’ve seen many very sick folks who don’t wash their cups throughout my nursing career. 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦

damn people don't know the top pops apart? I clean mine daily, popped apart, rinsed first with hot water and scrubbed with a sponge on both sides and inside and out, lid taken apart, little brush for the straw

i'm happy to know that i DON'T USE THEM AT ALL

Don't have a Stanley cup. Don't need it. The reusable water bottle I do have goes in the dishwasher.

You need to clean them. I have one not even Stanley brand but yes.. The plastic will harbor bacteria. Clean after every use. As the one I used, they even sold a replacement straw and mouthpiece that should be replaced yearly at least.

I don't use Stanley cups, but I do have a couple Iron Flask water bottles. I hated having to wash it but knew (because of common sense of course) I needed to regularly for the sake of cleanliness/health. So I got a second one to rotate when I knew I was due for a cleaning and could quickly just switch. It helps a ton!

I just leave the lid off when I run my truck through the car wash

This is a trend that should be remembered 10 years from now

This is why you wash your dishes by hand.

I remember a time when people had to be told to clean the rubber of yeti lids... I want to say it was less than five years ago. Can't believe this is news again after such a short time.

Stanley cup fans: ew what is that!? Normal people: unwashed bottle that can be easily cleaned if you use dish soap and a sponge.

I have a Yeti Tumblr my sister gave me for my birthday, it's pretty easy to clean.

I thought this was normal to clean a water bottle after every use even if it’s just water 😅

This is honestly one of the most embarrassing obsessions in the last 10 years

Why not drink out of mason jars? Weren't canning jars cool a while back?

This is why I use denture cleaning tablets to clean all my water bottles. Cheap, simple and easy.

Boil water and dump in the lid in, same method we clean needles for reuse in Africa

Never heard of Stanley cups. Sounds like a paid advisement for them. How hard is it to clean a cup with hot water and soap. Next we will be telling people you have to take the cap off a tube of toothpaste to actually use it.

IT'S A GOD DAMN CUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fecking hell people have brands of sippy cup they drink from now? What has the world come to.

I had one I cleaned with soapy water. There must have been too much soap because everytime I put coffee in it afterwards, it came out with a sheen and foamy. I cleaned it several times after that with just water and there is still soap inside of it.

If you ever had to wash your baby's bottles, you'll know how much milk gunk can accumulate. Take everything apart. Dish soap & hot water. Moldy? Use distilled white vinegar and popcorn kernals.

I have a different top, no straw, but there Is a hole which is like half an inch big. It's one, simple, piece, so It's easy to clean.

Do I really need to clean the bottle that used only for cold water? I did for straw though

😂😂😂😂😂😂, can’t sue a company if you can’t clean after yourself

I have insulated bottle and i clean it every night (i fill it from morning till whole day) and make sure i even sanitized it with hot water and make sure i air dry it before closing them(lid) or u will see black molds building up.

"Travel blogger" unemployed person who takes selfies

I don't sip outta the straw from my cups I drink with my mouth/lips!!

how do you get the lead out tho

My mom always grills me about cleaning my Thermos all the time, and reminds me to wash it twice before refilling, especially if you use it to store coffee If you have the coffee sitting around for more than one hour, it is best to dump it all the way, because the milk you may had added to your coffee may had cooled down enough to allow lactic bacteria to grow

People act like they just invented Stanley Cups.

It's just like a child's sippy cup 😂

When was the last time they said they cleaned it though?

Notice how they didn’t mention the results for the Yeti cup 😂 I guess it was the cleanest

I like Starbucks tumblers and I wash them after every use, but they have a rubber insulation circle around the inside of the top lid which collects mold. Taking that part out to clean after every single use would be annoying because its inserted tightly in a groove, I just took them out and the cup works just as fine but doesn't collect mold there, maybe its slightly less insulated but I don't notice a difference

Best to buy the easy to clean ones

Thats why i always use yeti. Very easy to clean the lid

Who needs a Stanley when you have solo.

Ew, no. That would ruin the seasoning.

The water spout on my fridge be like... YEA IM MOLDY!!!

😭😭😭 Imma go check mine now

My Stanley cup left the door open and made my dog run away

It’s the rubber pieces. I got a big yeti and I use it for coffee everyday and multiple refills. I give it a good rinse every day and take the ring of lid and cover of closure and complete scrub every other day.

Watching those people trying to get their hands on one of these ridiculous Stanley cups is like watching a bunch of lemmings heading over the cliff! And now they’re making themselves sick by not cleaning it properly! T😊

Warm water and vinegar let it soak.

Mine go through the dishwasher every day I use them, didn’t know people didn’t know to do this 😳

Butt i clean mine every after use. How do they use theirs? :(

Bruh did they not talk about the led in that same cup😑

Also best to buy light coloured ones so that you can see the gunks.

I still have my tervis tumblers, lids come apart, easy to clean and SQUEAKY 🌟⚡️ CLEAN!!!

One of the main reasons I went with Yeti.

I never use reusable water bottles I always had a feeling they were holding mold

I'll stick to a cup..

trust me a gatorade water bottle is 10x better then a rusty stanley cup

Watching the last litteraly put her cup onto likely a communal coffee maker.... Also it takes allot of hot water and soap to cleæn. All compontents of anything you drink from they even sell baby bottle purah kits that can help you get in every area but nothing will be perfect but as close to possible. Also plastics and slicone parts will keep more bacteria in so its really important to know how to clean and likely how hot your water should be to sterlize everything.

On ya stanley cup dude, 😂😂😂😂

I have never heard of that

Who doesn't wash their bottle after each use. Maybe because i work in a hospital, I was mine every time i use it.

Why is everyone love those cups it’s just cups😂

Wash your cups people. Whether it’s handwashing or dishwashing, just keep them clean.

NOW I’M DEFINITELY NOT SWAPPING FROM MY YETI CUP TO A STANLEY CUP 😢

I've had this insulated stainless bottle for years now, and honestly have barely ever washed it. I look inside it and it looks clean. I drink over a gallon of water through it a day, so idk.

I think people do clean them, but they only remove the lid from the cup instead of taking out every single part to clean individually. I have a LocknLock straw tumbler with 7 different parts (including the cup, lid, and straw) which I take apart and wash separately and use a straw brush cleaner to wash the inside of the straw every couple of days.

I am! Dont even have to watch the video to know how dirty under the cap can get.

Yes. I know how to wash dishes. Simple Modern is a better product though 🙌🏾

Do the Gatorade ones that athletes use

why is there a chunk of lead in the button bottom of the cups????

As a person was a tumbler with simple modern I’m just surprised I thought everyone cleans their water bottle

If my dishwasher can’t properly clean my cups oh well😂 don’t use Stanley but other brands haha

That's true

Another reason why I do not have a fancy reusable water bottle. All of those parts that have to be cleaned daily! Sometimes multiple times a day if you switch up your beverage. It is impossible to properly clean a reusable cup on the go.

Is it worth living if I don't have one of these Stanley cups?

HA ! it's not a YETI !!!!!!!!!!!

Dont the stanley cups also have Lead in them??

thats common on those insulated cups you have to carefully clean em carefully and more often

My Costco tumbler had black mould in it

I assume that everyone that owns a Stanley cup is a hockey fan! 😂

Makes me proud to be a Simple Modern girlie. Less crevices that someone could miss. Theres the obivous crevices around the lid where it screws in and the straw is just a straight up plastic straw so as long as youve got a straw cleaner, you should be good to go. And I use a bottle brush to reach the bottom of the cup, too.

It's why i don't use these and i don't use KEURIG! They harbor all kinds of mold and bacteria especially the standing water and water/moisture in the machine.

Seriously some people didnt know that you have to clean it regardless even you only put water on it. That is why I dont use mine often. Because each used I ak really seperating per parts and clean it thoroughly.

Lolz, I’ve had my Stanley thermos for six years and I have to clean that thing four times a week

me just have regular ceramic mugg

I put mine in the dishwasher

Help my mom uses coffee bean stanley and we dont clean it after every use we just reaply
