While many people have their refillable water bottles always by their side, that personal container might not be the best choice for a larger adventure. Costco shoppers rave about this stainless steel jug. From camping to a long day outside, the sturdy, handy container is a must buy.
More and more frequently, people are ditching the single-use plastic bottles, cups and other disposable items. Whether it is following an eco-conscious lifestyle or just wanting to save money, multi-use products have become a priority.
Costco sells the Manna 64 oz Stack Jug for $29.99. The double-wall vacuum insulated stainless steel reusable container keeps drinks cold for up to 34 hours and beverages hot for up to five hours.
Available in green and black, the jug includes four stackable stainless steel cups. These added items are great for sharing, especially on a camping trip or even at tailgate. Given the large size, it can be easier to drink from a cup versus straight from the jug.
Costco shoppers have many uses for this stainless steel water jug.
Shoppers have positive comments about the Manna Stack Jug. Many people appreciate its outdoor uses. Specifically, one person said, “Great to use for camping. A thermos that included 4 stainless cups.” One user warned that the cups do conduct heat, which can make them quite warm to hold with hot liquid inside.

In contrast, another person praised the jug’s ability to keep drinks cold. While it is unclear if the chilly drinks stay cold up to 34 hours, it is clear that people do not have to fear drinking room temperature beverages.
Overall, shoppers appreciated the jug’s value. Given the size and versatility, the under $30 price was a selling point.
No one commented on the weight. At 3.2 lbs, the jug is not lightweight. Additionally, the overall size may not conveniently fit into a backpack.

Lastly, one user shared an alternative use that was not suggested by the manufacturer. That person said, “After reading a recent review saying the Manna Stack Jug was “Not Suitable as a Beer Growler”, I am pleased to report that this performs superbly as a beer growler. We kept a full growler of Big Horn Hefeweizen in the refrigerator door; unopened it maintained carbonation for a full 72 hour/3 days.” For beer drinkers on a camping trip, this option might be an alternative to a large cooler of bottles.
Is the Manna Stack Jug a smart Costco purchase? Based on what recent shoppers say, it should be added to the must buy list.
