Get your Cheers & Cheer ProTour 40oz tumbler ready to sip. Follow these simple setup steps, from lid check to first fill, and avoid common mistakes.
Quick answer
Set up your Cheers & Cheer ProTour 40oz by checking that the lid and straw are seated properly, giving the tumbler a quick wash, and then flipping the straw up to sip and snapping it shut between drinks.
Why the lid check matters more than you think
The ProTour lid is designed to flip up for sipping and snap shut for travel, but it only seals correctly when the lid is fully seated and the straw is clicked into place. A lid that looks closed but isn’t fully pressed down is the most common cause of leaks and spills.
Take an extra second to press around the entire rim of the lid after placing it on the tumbler. You should feel it settle evenly, with no gap on one side.
First-use cleaning: keep it simple
Before your first sip, wash the tumbler, lid, and straw by hand with warm, soapy water. The flip straw mechanism has small parts, so a quick hand wash is gentler than a dishwasher cycle and helps you learn how the pieces fit together.
Rinse thoroughly and let everything air-dry completely before reassembling. A damp lid can trap moisture and cause a musty smell if stored closed.
When to snap the straw shut
The straw is meant to be flipped up only while you’re actively drinking. Snap it down whenever you set the tumbler down, put it in a bag, or hand it to a friend. This keeps the spout clean and prevents drips.
If you’re using the tumbler at a desk or in the car, get in the habit of closing the straw after every sip. It takes a second and saves cleanup later.
Step-by-step setup for your Cheers & Cheer ProTour 40oz
- Unbox and inspect all parts: Remove the tumbler, lid, and straw from the packaging. Check that the straw is not bent or cracked and that the lid’s flip mechanism moves freely. If any part looks damaged, contact the retailer before first use.
- Wash before first use: Hand wash the tumbler body, lid, and straw with warm water and mild dish soap. Rinse well and let all parts air-dry completely. Skip the dishwasher on the first wash to avoid warping thin plastic parts.
- Insert the straw into the lid: Push the straw firmly into the underside of the lid until it sits flush. You should feel or hear a slight click. A straw that isn’t fully inserted will leak air and make sipping difficult.
- Seat the lid on the tumbler: Place the lid on the tumbler and press down around the entire rim with your palm until it sits evenly. Do not twist or force it. Run a finger around the edge to confirm there’s no gap.
- Flip up and test the straw: Flip the straw up and take a sip of water. The straw should feel secure and the lid should not wobble. If the straw feels loose, remove the lid and reinsert the straw more firmly.
- Snap the straw shut and check for leaks: Close the straw and turn the tumbler upside down over a sink for a few seconds. A properly sealed lid will not drip. If you see drips, reseat the lid and straw before using the tumbler in a bag or car.
