Most of the brands within the category of insulated tumblers are made with very similar technology and materials and in a small concentration of factories. I won't be surprised if lead is used in majority of such brands (apparently only in the sealed part, not touched by water). And that the only reason Stanley brand is getting the social media flak is because of it coming in disproportionate limelight because of hyperconsumeristic trends fueled by wannabe influencers on social media platforms.
You do you, just realize your fear is misplaced. There is zero chance of getting lead exposure from these bottles. If you care about lead you should focused more on the biggest provider of lead - root vegetables like carrots are full of lead and cadmium. Are you going to stop feeding your kids root vegetables as well? Do you live in a house built before 1990? If so all your pipes are soldered with lead. Do you have a water pressure reducing valve in your house (if you live in a residential area you most likely do) then you have all your water going through a leaded fixture (even the new pressure reducing valves can only claim to be low lead). The list goes on, there are far more sources of lead that you are ingesting every day that should be a much bigger worry if you are worried about lead. Unless you plan to drill into the bottom of this bottle and lick the metal shavings it's not something worth worrying about.
That for sure. But also innumerable videos of middle schoolers / moms toteing and parading it and showing their haul and their stash of every color or collection or whatever. I came to know of all this in Feb when I was reading about the stampede at Target and employees getting fired over having bought it for themselves...all over some limited edition valentines color Stanley cup. Insane.

If I'm not mistaken, I think the Stanley cups got big because 2 videos showing the cup surviving a car fire and a house fire went viral. Each video showed ice still in the cup.

I got these back before Christmas for about $15. Kids like them for school because they have rubber bottoms so they don't make noise on the desks.

If you're store still has any left at this price, it's a good buy.

I don't care how low the risk is when there is led. Once it happens, it is ALL-or-None.
Whatever that layer of paint they used, they are not that durable. I have seen places scratched by kids in just a few days as they bumped the bottles into all kind of things. The bottom bumper could also be lost very soon and the middle of the bottom (where the led is) is not covered by the bumper.
If by any chance the paint in the bottom got scratched off, there indeed a risk of high concentrated led being touched by the kids at lunch time. Why would I want to risk it?
I would rather to have the kids using led free bottles and never need to think about it again.
Just don't buy this crap. These greedy manufacturers could always use led-free solution (when some can) which probably cost them 20 cents more but they just dont want to increase the cost. I am sure the same factory who actually made the bottles for them could also make them led-free for a tiny bit more money.
You do you, just realize your fear is misplaced. There is zero chance of getting lead exposure from these bottles. If you care about lead you should focused more on the biggest provider of lead - root vegetables like carrots are full of lead and cadmium.

Unable to find in store. All I could find were the Thermoflask tumblers (like Stanley Cups)

There are some alternatives listed in this Wired article if you're opposed to lead in the manufacture of your insulated water bottles:

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." The CPSC also gave EatingWell confirmation that "there is a risk of lead exposure if the stainless steel caps at the bottom of these products become damaged."

I prefer an Autoseal bottle, it's the best type I've ever come across, hands down

I had six bottles, and the seals on half of them are defective. The plastic O-rings shrank and no longer ensure a tight seal.
