Short tumblers are made from several materials, most commonly glass, copolyester, polypropylene and recycled glass. Many plastic options are labeled BPA‑free; individual product pages will note the specific material and any safety claims.
Capacities vary, with common sizes including 8 oz, 10 fl oz, 12 oz, 12.5 fl oz, 13 oz, 14 oz, 15 oz, 16 oz, 16.75 fl oz and 18 oz — generally spanning about 8–18 ounces depending on the model.
Kid‑friendly plastic short tumblers are often stackable, sized for young children (with suggested age guidance where noted), labeled BPA‑free, and described as durable or impact‑resistant for everyday use.
Set sizes vary from single tumblers to multi‑piece sets; common pack counts include 1, 4, 6 and 12 pieces depending on the brand and collection.
Short tumblers come in clear and colored glass or plastic and often feature subtle contouring, textured surfaces, slightly curved or old‑fashioned bottoms, and assorted color hues for different looks.
Some short tumblers include lids, reusable straws and silicone sleeves; a few models offer lids or tops intended for to‑go use. Availability varies by product, so check the item description for included accessories.
