They are using lead because it is cheap and easy and it is literally put in a location where it can NEVER interact with any part of the cup that people are drinking from. And unless the cap falls off the bottom, you will never see this lead.
BTW, this is why they tell you not to put these in the dishwasher. The heat of the dishwasher can cause this cap to come off, exposing the lead. Lead also isnt nearly as dangerous as people make it out to be. We dont want to be pumping it into the air or putting it in our mouths, but we use it for all kinds of applications and it is perfectly safe.
Anyway, its not an issue. If you are really worried just handwash your cup.
I can agree that it is cheap and every maker uses it but to say that lead is safe is just out of this world. Literally not safe but okay whatever.
Like I said before, if damage, lead will leak.

"Our manufacturing process currently employs the use of 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. Rest assured that no lead is present on the surface of any Stanley product that comes into contact with the consumer nor the contents of the product. In the rare occurrence the base cap of a product comes off due to ordinary use and exposes this seal, it is eligible for our Lifetime Warranty."

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that no double-layered(be it plastic, glass, or metal) container is safe to drink from if the inner layer has been damaged to the point of failure.
This fear-mongering is akin to claiming that drinking from a glass cup is unsafe because it may contain shards of glass.

It isn't fear-mongering. It is facts. People make do with whatever it is. There are people who will continue to use it even if it's damaged. So this fact will be beneficial for those people. I have one Stanley and Yeti tumbler myself.
As for "continue to use even if it is damaged", that is both idiotic and their own fault. How the hell do you clean out a cup that has a hole in it where fluid is leaking into the vacuum seal?

We're they all these tumblers or were there other items available? I like the trigger action drinkware and the admirals mugs. Those two aren't "in" and I hope it stays that way.
After a quick Google search, looks like the admiral's mug is something I'd like. Especially if it will keep my coffee hot.
"Someone" you don't know gave you hear-say information with a random kit with no accuracy of said mentioned kit. That's supposed to be more valid news station that did their diligence with no invested interest in Stanley. Okay, boss chief jefe commander.
By the way, IQ has nothing to do with actual crystallized intelligence as later renditions of the test designed it around skills taught only in Americans schools, such as the capital of a state.

Lead is a very solid metal, generally it doesn't just go sloshing around all over the place. "leak" is a bit misleading.
