The guarantee does not cover component parts or malfunction due to alteration or accident. For more information on proper use, please see the care and use instructions provided with your product.

Product questions
How sustainable are Stanley 1913 products?
The most sustainable products are the ones that never need to be thrown away or replaced. That’s why Stanley 1913 has been building durable, reusable bottles for over 100 years. Our products are made from stainless steel, one of the most recyclable materials on the planet, which helps reduce the need for disposable products globally.
By focusing on Environmental Health and Safety throughout its entire supply chain, Stanley 1913 is committed to ethical manufacturing, reducing its corporate footprint, and a guarantee that means replacing a single part instead of a whole product whenever possible. To learn more about the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) commitment of Stanley 1913 (a brand of PMI), visit the PMI Worldwide responsibilities page.
What type of stainless steel does Stanley 1913 use in its products?
Stanley 1913 uses 18/8 stainless steel, also known as grade 304 or food-grade stainless steel. Like all Stanley 1913 products, our stainless steel items must pass rigorous health and safety tests before they are made available to the public.
Do Stanley 1913 products contain lead?
One of the key features of our products is vacuum insulation technology, which keeps beverages at the ideal temperature. Our manufacturing process currently uses an industry-standard pellet to seal the vacuum insulation at the base of our products; the sealing material includes some lead. Once sealed, this area is covered with a durable stainless steel layer, making it inaccessible to consumers. No lead is present on the surface of any Stanley 1913 product that comes into contact with the consumer or the contents of the product. In the rare event that the base cap of a product comes off through ordinary use and exposes this seal, it is eligible for our lifetime warranty. Please contact us to make a claim.
Stanley 1913 products meet all US & EU regulatory requirements, including Prop 65. Stanley 1913 tests for and validates compliance on all products through FDA-accredited third-party labs that verify our products follow strict guidelines, including but not limited to BPA/BPS, PFOS and phthalate regulatory requirements.
What does the #7 at the bottom of Stanley 1913 products mean?
Stanley 1913 products are EU-tested safe and approved, and all contact surfaces are guaranteed to be BPS/BPA-free. There are seven classes of plastics, and Type 7 is the catch-all “other” class. Because Stanley 1913 products are made of multiple materials, they are required to use the Type 7 code. Any surface that comes into contact with food or beverages does not contain BPS or BPA.
How do I get the best hot/cold retention from my vacuum bottle?
Preheat or precool your Stanley 1913 vacuum bottle, mug or food jar by filling it with warm or cold tap water and letting it stand for five minutes. Empty it and immediately fill it with your hot or cold beverage. Then secure the stopper and lid as quickly as possible to avoid heat loss.
Can Stanley 1913 vacuum products be used for milk or dairy products?
We do not recommend keeping milk or dairy products in your vacuum bottle or food jar for extended periods, as bacteria can grow at certain temperatures. Fermenting food and beverages may also cause pressure to build up over time.
Can Stanley 1913 vacuum products hold dry ice?
We do not recommend using dry ice in a sealed container, as the rapid evaporation of CO2 from solid to gas can create unwanted pressure inside your product. Please proceed carefully at your own risk.
Can Stanley 1913 thermoses be used for cold beverages?
Yes. Stanley 1913 vacuum bottles keep drinks cold just as well as they keep them hot, so you can use your thermos for hot, cold and even iced beverages.
Can Stanley 1913 vacuum products be used for carbonated drinks?
We do not recommend putting carbonated drinks in any sealed container, as the CO2 can create unwanted pressure inside your product. Please proceed carefully at your own risk.
What brush should I use to clean my stainless steel product?
You can use any soft brush to clean your Stanley 1913 vacuum bottle or food jar. Please do not use a metal brush, as it could scratch the stainless steel surfaces.
How do I clean my product before its first use?
Check the bottom of your product to see whether it is dishwasher safe (top rack only). If not, we recommend hand washing. Be sure to wash your product before first use:
- Fill with warm water and mild detergent.
- Let stand for a few minutes.
- Wash with a soft, damp cloth or sponge.
- Rinse and dry with a clean towel.
Your product may need a deep clean occasionally. For this, we recommend soaking it in a mixture of one part baking soda and one part warm water for up to an hour. After rinsing out the mixture, clean with mild detergent.
How do I clean the gaskets in my product?
To thoroughly clean under the gasket or seal, we recommend soaking the top of the cup in white vinegar, lemon juice, or a mixture of warm water and baking soda. On some products, the gasket or seal can be carefully removed with a small tool and soaked separately.
Are Stanley 1913 products dishwasher safe?
The bottom of your Stanley 1913 product shows whether it is dishwasher safe. For dishwasher-safe products, we always recommend using the top rack. Please hand-wash any items that are not dishwasher safe.
Are Stanley 1913 products microwave safe?
No. Most Stanley 1913 products are made from stainless steel, and even items with a different main body material may have stainless steel in the hinges, handles or other parts. We do not recommend putting Stanley 1913 products in the microwave, as this can damage both your product and the appliance.
What type of plastic is used in the bottle stopper?
Stanley 1913 products are EU-tested safe and approved, and all contact surfaces are guaranteed safe to use with food and beverages. The outer plastic material of our stoppers is BPA-free polypropylene.
Are Stanley 1913 products safe to put in the freezer?
We do not recommend putting any Stanley 1913 product in the freezer. Liquids expand as they freeze, and your item will not return to its original shape. This can damage your product and affect its functionality, thermal performance and seals.
Are Stanley 1913 products rust-proof?
Stanley 1913 products are made of high-grade, rust-proof stainless steel and will last a lifetime when properly cared for. If you notice what looks like rust, it may be free-iron particles, dirt or residue on the surface. To remove these, use a standard, non-abrasive household cleaner applied with a bristle brush, sponge or clean cloth. A stainless steel cleaner or polish can also be used. Soaking the product in a mixture of warm water and baking soda, white vinegar or lemon juice may also help. Repeat as needed. After using cleaners, always wash your bottle thoroughly as described in our care and use instructions.
Why are the new bottles so much lighter?
Before 2009, Stanley 1913 vacuum-insulated products (including bottles and food jars) used Char‐Vac® insulation. This technology packed charcoal between the inner and outer steel walls while drawing the vacuum. In 2009, charcoal was removed from all Stanley 1913 products because of its impact on manufacturing and the environment. Since then, higher-grade stainless steel and better design, welding and vacuum technologies have been used to maintain durability and improve thermal performance.
