I like to sit in the corner seat of my sectional, so there’s no table on either side of me. These are the perfect solution without having to get up every time I want to take a sip.Andrea · Aug 18, 2026
We have a deep couch and 3 dogs who love to jump on it. I have tried so many trays and holders, and none of them have worked. … My husband was skeptical, but even he is now impressed.Erin · May 28, 2026

Does it really hold

One take. No cuts. The bare one goes over.

The take at the top of this page — an armchair cushion, two 40 oz tumblers, one take, no cuts, no hands. The bare one tips. Watch it ▶
What happens in the clip

Two 40 oz tumblers stand side by side on a grey armchair cushion, one seated in a black Steadi, one bare. The bare tumbler tips onto its side. The seated one stays standing in the same spot. No hands, no cuts, no text, no sound.

It resists tipping. Nothing makes a drink spill-proof, and we won't tell you otherwise.

Everything you have tried clamps the furniture. The arm, the edge, the console. Steadi holds the drink, so it goes where the drink goes.

1 · How many

Both arm accessories are $19.99, and both of them need an arm.

IKEA Rödeby armrest tray — a flat armrest 4–12 inches wide. CouchCoaster — an arm at least 5.5 inches wide. Steadi — the bottom inch of your drink. The comparison, with sources ↓

2 · What color

Your color: Charcoal · all

Twelve colors, made to sit out.

Your color

Will yours fit? Measure the bottom of your drink, not the top. A base of 2 to 3 inches settles in fully, and the fins flex to take a base up to 3.15 inches — snug, and it seats with a push. Your 40 oz Stanley fits.

The one common no: a handled mug. The handle lands right where a fin needs to grip.

Will it fit my cup

Measure the bottom, not the top.

Container bases 2 to 3 inches across settle in fully. The flexible fins accept slightly wider bases up to 3.15 inches — a snug fit that seats with a push. Under 2 inches sits too loose; over 3.15 doesn't seat.

A sticky note is exactly 3 inches. Set your cup on one: if the base sits inside the square, it's in range.

Fits — settles in fully.

Honest no.

  • Handled mugs — the base fits; the handle doesn't. It lands exactly where a fin needs to grip.
  • Stemmed glassware — a stem gives Steadi nothing to grip. Use a stemless glass.
  • Wide-mouth bottles: Hydro Flask 32/40 oz, Nalgene 32 oz, Owala 32/40, growlers — too wide.

Snug tumbler? Pull the Steadi off the cup rather than the cup out of the Steadi.

Where drinks tip

Every seat that isn't next to a table.

A full-arm stretch from the couch to a glass on the coffee table.
The coffee table.Out of reach.
A can balanced on the rolled arm of a sofa.
The arm.One elbow away.
A glass on the carpet beside a dog's paw.
The floor.Where the dog is.
A tumbler wedged in the seam between two couch cushions.
The cushion seam.An angle you're trusting.

There's no Steadi in these — that's the point.

Every fix you've tried fastens to the furniture — the arm, the edge, the console. Steadi goes on the drink, so it goes where the drink goes. Beside you.

How it holds

Wide underneath. Flexible around the drink. Planted.

  1. Wide underneath.The wide 5.2-inch base moves the edge the drink would have to tip over much farther out, so the whole thing has to lean much farther before it goes over than the drink does on its own.
  2. Flexible around the drink.Six flexible fins take the bottom inch of the container — cans and bottles slide on, cups and tumblers drop in — so drink and base rock as one piece and settle upright.
  3. Planted.The grippy TPU plants the base where it is set, then lifts clean.

One solid molded piece of TPU. 5.2 inches across, 2.8 inches tall, about 3.6 ounces. No hinges, springs, seams or metal. No clips, no straps, no adhesive — set it down. 100% BPA free. Patent pending.

Rinse it, wipe it with a damp cloth, or run it through the dishwasher.

The honest part

What it doesn't do.

  • It is not spill-proof — nothing is. It resists tipping. A hard enough hit still spills a drink.
  • It's light. About 3.6 ounces. It works by widening and gripping the base of your drink, not by adding weight.
  • It does nothing while the glass is in your hand.
  • It sinks. It doesn't insulate.
  • Handled mugs don't seat. The base fits; the handle lands where a fin needs to grip. Stemmed glasses give it nothing to grip.
  • It works better on flat surfaces than on steeply curved ones.
  • Two ways to seat it. Seated low, so your cup's own bottom touches the couch, the pair can slide. Seated high, so only the Steadi touches, it plants. Whichever is touching the surface decides it.

If what you want is a spot for the remote and the snacks too, or your everyday drink is a handled mug, an arm tray is the better buy. Steadi is about the drink — and about the seats that don't have an arm.

Expected it to take wider containersElizabeth · May 22, 2026 · ★★★★☆

Our answer: Fair. The fins stop at 3.15 inches. Wide-mouth bottles are an honest no — see the fit list.

Seems to work okay I though the base would be heavierElisa · May 31, 2026 · ★★★★☆

Our answer: It's meant to be light. Width and grip do the holding, not weight.

not as steady as I would like but it is working just fine. It does slide a little. Overall it was a good purchase.Randee · Aug 20, 2026 · ★★★★☆

Our answer: Sliding means the cup's own bottom is touching the couch. Seat it a little higher so only the Steadi touches, and it plants.

Before you buy

Asked before buying.

Will it fit my cup?

Most cans, bottles, cups and tumblers do: a base 2 to 3 inches across settles in fully, and the fins flex to take up to 3.15 inches, snug. The 40 oz Stanley Quencher fits. Handled mugs and stemmed glasses don't. A sticky note is exactly 3 inches — set your cup on one; if the base sits inside the square, it's in range.

What happens when someone sits down right next to it, or the dog jumps up?

It rocks with the cushion and settles back upright, because the drink and the wide base move as one piece. There's a clip of exactly that under "Does it really hold" above — a boy flops onto a leather couch beside a full can. It resists tipping; a hard, direct knock can still spill a drink — nothing is spill-proof.

Does it attach to my couch, or mark it?

No. Nothing to clip, strap or stick. The grippy TPU plants the base where you set it, lifts clean, and marks nothing.

Can I put it in the dishwasher?

Yes. Rinse it, wipe it with a damp cloth, or run it through the dishwasher.

Why would I need more than one?

Because they get claimed. One per seat that isn't next to a table, and a color per person so everyone knows whose drink is whose. The price per Steadi drops as the pack grows: $12.48 each on the 2-Pack, $9.99 on the 4-Pack, $8.74 on the 8-Pack, against $14.95 for one. A set costs the same as the plain pack.

How fast does it ship, and what if I don't like it?

Shipping is free on every U.S. order, no minimum. It leaves Orange, California within one business day by USPS, tracked; most of the country sees it in 2 to 5 days. You have 90 days to change your mind — used is fine, returns are free, no questions asked. Email hello@steadilabs.com; Scott reads those emails. We don't ship internationally yet.

Does it only work on couches?

No. Anywhere you'd otherwise not trust a drink: the bed, an ottoman, a blanket, a wobbly patio table, a sloped grandstand bench, a desk full of paper, a boat at the dock. It works better on flat surfaces than on steeply curved ones.

Is this the same Steadi from the ad, or from getsteadi.com or thecouchcupholder.com?

Yes. One company, one product, one checkout. getsteadi.com is this same store and forwards here. Every Steadi shop — thecouchcupholder.com, thepontooncupholder.com and the rest — is built and run by Steadi Labs and checks out here at steadilabs.com.
