5 Best Stanley Quencher Alternatives 2023 UK

*If you click on a link in this story we will earn affiliate revenue.

THE Stanley Quencher insulated tumbler has become a legend in the USA and UK, more than a century after William Stanley Jr invented the all-steel vacuum bottle, thanks to going viral on TikTok.

And while you might not be able to get your hands on the real thing, there are lots of Stanley Quencher alternatives on the market that are so close to the original in terms of form and function, you’d be hard-pressed to tell the difference.

The cult cup generally sells out as soon as it goes on sale, so if you weren’t lucky enough to nab one while they were in stock then we’ve come up with a list of brilliant dupes that look almost as good as the real thing – and as a bonus, they’re cheaper.

The Beast Stainless Steel Tumbler

  • The Beast Stainless Steel Tumbler, £27 for the 40oz version from Amazon –

This insulated tumbler is made from high-grade stainless steel with a copper lining and is dishwasher-proof – unlike some of the others we’ve seen.

Use it for hot and cold drinks. It comes with two unbreakable steel straws, an airtight lid and a straw-cleaning brush.

There’s no handle, but it has a non-slip finish for better grip or you can buy a separate handle that slips over the mug.

We love the fact it’s available in loads of different colours – cupcake pink gets our vote – and it’s designed to fit into your car’s cup holder.

With over 55,000 reviews on Amazon, it’s popular, with one happy customer stating: “We took ours on holiday to Mexico, the cup was in the sun most of the day and still had ice cubes in it when we got back to the room. Would highly recommend it.”

Available in four sizes, starting from 10oz so it’s perfect for your mini beasts too!

Peegsan Stainless Steel Tumbler

  • Peegsan Stainless Steel Tumbler, £13.99 from Amazon –

This insulated tumbler is made from stainless steel and polypropylene and holds up to 1200ml (40oz) – enough to keep you hydrated all day.

It’s big – 27cm tall – so it’s not something you’re going to hide away in your bag, rather it makes a statement, with its iconic wide upper and narrow base design.

When you’re driving, it sits snugly in your car cup holder so is ideal for drinks on the move, and when you’re at the gym it holds enough liquid to get you through the toughest session.

Keeps drinks hot for up to six hours and drinks cold for up to 12 hours, so you can use this year-round.

It’s leakproof, comes with a straw and lid, and is available in eight different colours – light blue, pink, white, grey, camel, blue, black and army green.

Lululemon Back to Life Tumbler

  • Back to Life Tumbler, £38 from Lululemon –

This insulated tumbler from sports gear favourite Lululemon is the perfect accessory to your exercise kit. And no need to worry about it slipping out of sweaty hands as it’s finished with a powder coating to increase grip.

The double-wall design ensures your drink stays cold – but note, this one seems to be just for cold drinks as there’s no mention of hot drinks on the website. It doesn’t have a removable straw, but rather a flip-up spout, like a mini straw, that is part of the lid.

It’s smaller than others we’ve looked at and holds up to 710ml (24oz), but on the plus side, that means it’s lighter to carry around and that’s still a lot of liquid.

Available in pink mist, blue line, black, white and a merging multicolour, kohlrabi green/fluro lime/utility blue.

Etsy Personalised Stanley Dupes Travel Mugs

  • Personalised Stanley Dupes Travel Mugs, £19.99 from Etsy –

This insulated tumbler has a handy handle, just like the Stanley Quencher does. It also has a narrow base to fit into a cup holder and holds up to 40oz.

It keeps drinks hot for up to 12 hours and cold for up to eight hours and comes with a straw and lid.

Available in a rainbow of 15 different colours and you can personalise it, with the recipient’s name in black or white, so it makes for a great gift too.

One Etsy shopper states: “Brilliant travel cup, perfect for what I want.” And another says: “Fab cup using all the time.”

Amazon Haushof Travel Tumbler

  • Haushof Travel Tumbler, £19.99 from Amazon –

The Haushof insulated tumbler has an easy grip handle and provides the same kind of function as the Stanley Quencher, but with an altogether different look.

It holds 700ml (24oz) of hot or cold liquid so it’s great a size for those of us who want to stay hydrated on the run, but who don’t drink gallons of coffee or water.

The opening in the lid is wide enough to get ice cubes through and it will keep your drink cold for up to 24 hours (six hours for hot drinks).

One happy Amazon shopper writes: "Could not be happier! Every day my coffee is still hot by lunchtime. It's tried and tested leakproof from being in a bag, it's super easy to wash with only two parts and really easy to drink from.”
