RAMBLER FAQ

 

GENERAL

What is a YETI Rambler®?

YETI Drinkware is over-engineered. Our stainless steel Tumblers, Bottles, Colster® Can Insulators, Mugs, Wine Tumblers, Stackable Pints and Jugs are designed with double-wall vacuum insulation, and a No Sweat™ Design. The tumblers will keep your soda, beer, wine, smoothie, or mixed drinks ice cold. And the Colster Can Insulators are like a steel bear hug for your cans and longnecks. As for our bottles, they go wherever there’s a need for ice-cold or piping-hot beverages. They’re designed for easy loading, drinking, and cleaning. Select Rambler sizes come in a range of Duracoat™ Colors.

 

Is there a warranty on the Rambler?

Rambler Drinkware comes with a five year warranty. For more information, please visit our Warranty Information page.

 

Are Rambler products BPA free?

Yes. All YETI products are BPA free. Learn more here.

 

Which Rambler is right for me?

The YETI drinkware line has expanded a great deal since we first came out with the Rambler Tumbler. In addition to our tumblers, YETI now offers Bottles, Jugs, Colster Can Insulators, Mugs, the 295 mL Lowball, Stackable Pints, and the Wine Tumbler. The best answer will depend on what your drinking style is.

 

If you want your Rambler to be 100% leakproof, we suggest a Rambler Jug, or a Rambler Bottle with a TripleHaul™, Chug, HotShot™, MagDock™, or Cup Cap. Even with the MagSlider™ Lid, Rambler Tumblers are just splash-resistant, which means they’ll keep a drink in its place over a speed bump, but if tipped over in a backpack or jostled in traffic, some liquid will spill out due to pressure releasing inside the tumbler.

 

If you’re still not sure which Rambler is right for you, contact our Outfitter team, and they’ll help you out.

 

How long will my Rambler keep ice?

Due to all the variables that can affect ice retention, we can’t guarantee a precise amount of time that your Rambler will hold ice. However, more ice is better when it comes to your Rambler Tumblers or Bottles. We suggest filling your Rambler with as much ice as possible.

 

Ice is melting in my Rambler as quickly as a plastic cup. Why?

We designed the Rambler Tumblers and Bottles to live up to the YETI standard, which means unbeatable durability and unparalleled ice retention. If you feel like your Rambler is underperforming, reach out about your YETI Warranty. We take pride in the products we make. If anything is wrong, we’ll make it right. Read up on our Warranty Policy to determine if a Warranty Claim is necessary.

 

How many milliliters will fit in my Rambler?

 

 

Can I get my Rambler customized?

No. We do not currently offer customization in Canada.

 

Is there a maximum temperature limit for hot liquids when using the Ramblers or Rambler Lids?

Yes, we recommend temperatures to not exceed the limits below when using the following Rambler drinkware items and lids.

 

185F (85C) - Fresh Brewed Coffee

• Rambler Tumbler Standard Lid
• Rambler Tumbler Straw Lid
• Rambler Magslider Lid
• Rambler Triplehaul Cap

What is the Rambler® Elements Collection?

The Rambler® Elements Collection is a special drinkware line finished an advanced, fingerprint-proof coating. It’s currently offered in Graphite and Copper in select Rambler® Drinkware models.

 

How is the Rambler® Elements Collection different from the original Stainless Steel and DuraCoat™ YETI Drinkware?

As far as DuraCoat™ goes, it’s equally as durable and dishwasher safe, and has the same stainless steel base layer. We just added a thin coating to the stainless steel through PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) to give a brushed Graphite or Copper finish from top to bottom. Each one is coated with the highest-level of UV resistance and layered with an advanced, oleophobic coating (which is science for: it’s fingerprint-proof).

 

Is the Rambler® Elements Collection as durable as Duracoat™ Color?

Definitely. Like all Rambler Drinkware, the Rambler® Elements Collection is dishwasher safe and has a strong layer of thick-gauge stainless to resist dents and drops.

 

How do you clean the Rambler® Elements Collection?

All Rambler® products can be hand-washed and are also dishwasher safe. If you’re going the dishwasher route, just make sure everything goes where it should to get them as clean as possible.

 

• Rambler Bottle body: Standing upside down on the top or bottom rack (depending on where it fits best).
• Lids/Bottle Caps: Top rack of the dishwasher away from the heat.
• Gaskets: Silverware tray on the bottom rack.

 

Why isn’t customization available with the Rambler® Elements Collection?

Due to the design of the product and limited marking areas, it’s difficult to promise the quality of customization we’d like to offer. So if we couldn’t do it right, we didn’t want to do it at all.

 

Will you be making other colors in the Rambler® Elements Collection?

Currently, we only offer Graphite and Copper. But sign up for our emails to stay in the know about potential new color offerings.

 

Will you be expanding the Graphite and Copper drinkware collections?

Maybe.But for now, they’re offered in all Rambler 295 mL and 887 mL Tumblers, select Rambler® Bottles and Mugs, and the Rambler® 355 mL Colster® Can Insulator.

 

Will you be making coolers in this color?

Great question. Currently, this coating is only available on drinkware.

 

Bottles

What's the warning label and instructions for use for my Rambler Bottle?

 

What is different about the bottle?

YETI’s tried and true 532 ml, 769 ml, and 1 L Rambler Bottles now come standard with the fan favorite Chug Cap. Previously an optional accessory, this two-part cap features the TripleHaul™ Handle for grab-and-go ease along with an incredibly strong, clear spout for a controlled flow no matter where you go. Shatter-resistant and leakproof, it’s the bottle-and-cap combo that’s up for whatever you throw at it.

 

Can I still use the old cap?

Yep, all YETI Rambler bottles are still compatible with TripleHaul caps. In fact, each YETI Rambler bottle works with our complete line of innovative bottle caps: TripleHaul, Chug Cap, Straw Cap, MagDock, HotShot, and Cup Cap

 

Is the Chug Cap removable?

It sure is. The Chug Cap is made up of two removable parts: The TripleHaul™ Handle on top, and the shatter-resistant clear spout below. When it’s time for a refill or washing, you can remove both pieces for easy access to the inside of the bottle.

 

How do you clean the Chug Cap?

You can always wash your bottle and cap by hand, or simply let the dishwasher do the hard work. Just remember to put everything in the right place, to ensure each component comes out nice and clean.

 

• Rambler Bottle body: Standing upside down on the top or bottom rack (depending on where it fits best).
• Lids/Bottle Caps: Top rack of the dishwasher away from the heat.
• Gaskets: Silverware tray on the bottom rack.

For information on how to clean all Rambler Caps and Lids visit here.

 

Can I still buy the old bottle without the Chug Cap?

Once existing inventory of Rambler Bottles with TripleHaul™ Cap have been sold, all 532 ml, 769 ml, and 1 L bottles sold will include the Chug Cap.

 

I just bought a Rambler bottle with TripleHaul at my local store – can I get a Chug cap

Absolutely — we still sell the Chug Cap as a separate accessory here.

 

Can I order the old lid?

We do not currently offer the old lid for sale on YETI.ca..

 

Can I buy the Rambler Jr. 355 mL Kids Bottle colored cap separate?

No, the colored Straw Caps were specially designed for the Rambler Jr. line, but can fit on all YETI Bottles.

 

Can I use carbonated beverages in my Rambler Jr. 355 mL Kids Bottle?

We do not recommend using the Rambler Jr. 355 mL Kids Bottle for hot, carbonated, pulpy, or perishable beverages. If left unopened for hours, these liquids can cause pressure to build inside the bottle that can make the cap difficult to remove; or, forcefully eject and cause injury.

 

Can Insulators

WHAT TYPES OF CANS FIT IN EACH SIZED COLSTER® CAN INSULATOR?

• 355 ml Colster® Can Insulator fits most standard 355 ml cans and some longneck bottles
• Slim Can Colster® Can Insulator fits most slim cans such as those containing hard seltzers and energy drinks.
• The Tall Can Colster® Can Insulator fits most 473 ml cans including many craft beers.

 

WHICH REPLACEMENT GASKET SHOULD I PURCHASE FOR MY COLSTER® CAN INSULATOR?

There are two new replacement gaskets for the new range of Colster® Can Insulators. One size fits the Standard and Tall Can Colster® Can Insulators, and the smaller diameter size fits the Slim Can Colster® Can Insulator.

 

Please Note: These gaskets will not fit the original Colster® Can Insulator models.

 

WHY DID WE UPDATE THE RAMBLER® COLSTER CAN INSULATOR? WAS THERE SOMETHING WRONG WITH IT?

We refreshed the design with a seamless look and an updated Load-and-Lock® Gasket that requires only a quarter-turn to secure.

 

We added two new Colster® Can Insulator sizes to the suite to ensure we have the best can insulator for your preferred beverage.

 

 

Accessories

What is a MagSlider Lid?

We're glad you asked. Built for our Rambler Tumblers, this closable lid harnesses the power of magnets to help protect against splashes on the go. Learn more about what makes the MagSlider so special here or by watching the video below.

   

Does my Rambler lid close?

Using the power of magnets, your MagSlider Lid absolutely closes. If you want the most leak resistance, we suggest a Rambler Bottle or Rambler Jug. Even with a MagSlider lid, the Rambler Tumblers are leak-resistant, not leakproof. If tipped over in a backpack, or jostled in traffic, some liquid will spill out due to pressure releasing inside the tumbler.

 

How do I clean my MagSlider Lid?

The MagSlider Lid is dishwasher safe and easy to clean by hand. Just pop off the MagSlider, rinse it off and return to the Slider Lid. That's it! Learn more about the MagSlider and cleaning info here.

 

Can I purchase the MagSlider magnet part separately?

No. We currently do not have the MagSlider magnet part for sale in Canada.

 

I purchased a Rambler Tumbler but it didn't come with a Magslider Lid. Can I purchase one now?

We think some products are best used at Base Camp, but if you’re taking your Rambler on the go, yes, you can purchase the MagSlider Lid here.

 

The following products come with a MagSlider Lid: Rambler 295 mL Tumbler, Rambler 591 mL Tumbler, and Rambler 887 mL Tumbler.

 

What’s the difference between the MagSlider™ Lid and the Stronghold™ Lid?

The original MagSlider™ Lid is splash resistant, comes in three sizes, has a single-sliding magnet, and presses on. As for the Stronghold™ Lid, it’s leak-resistant, special-made for the Rambler® 591 mL Travel Mug (which means it only comes in one size), backed with double-magnet technology, and twists on for an extra-tight fit.

 

Does the Stronghold™ Lid fit my other Rambler® Drinkware?

This lid is special made for the Rambler® 591 mL Travel Mug and won’t fit with other Rambler® Drinkware models.

 

Is the Stronghold™ Lid leakproof?

The Stronghold™ Lid is leak-resistant (when closed) thanks to its dual-slider magnet technology that adds a strong layer between your free-flowing drink and the outside world. That said, don’t even think about throwing this mug inside your bag. If leakproof drinkware is what you’re after, check out our lineup of Rambler® Bottles and leakproof bottle cap accessories including the HotShot™ Cap, MagDock™ Cap, and Cup Cap.
