It's true: I like purple. I'm comfortable enough to share that bit of information.This skinny tumbler is purple, or maybe more of a lavender. I'm not big on different color names so to me, it's just purple.It's stainless steel, which is a must these days for cleanliness and taste - no added odors or unwanted bits. If you drink a lot of tea or coffee then it may stain a little, but those tannins typically scrub off fairly well.Vacuum insulation keeps your beverage of choice at the proper temperature longer - and you don't burn yourself when holding hot drinks. I personally only use these for cold beverages, but there is nothing wrong with hot ones, too!It comes with a straw and cleaner, so you're well prepared. The lid stays put without leaking around the rim. It is not a spill-free lid but it keeps crud from falling in and, if you happen to tip yours over, the contents will come out slowly instead of all at once.The only bad thing about skinny tumblers is how they can often rattle around in a car cupholder. It is not bad, but it does concern my wife on corners. That isn't specific to this brand but to many tumblers in general.The color is nice and doesn't feel like it will chip off easily.
