Why a portable drink setup tips—and how to troubleshoot it
Separate drink fit, surface support and surrounding movement before deciding whether a wider base solves the problem.
Check the container base
Measure across the actual bottom: 2–3.15 inches inclusive for Steadi. Check full seating and anything that interferes with the fins, including a low handle or an added boot. The brand name alone is not a fit measurement.
Check the whole footprint
The container may fit while the resting surface is too small. Support the entire 5.2-inch outside base, leave useful clearance from edges and choose a level spot. A narrow shelf or a sloped armrest is not fixed by adding a holder.
Check movement underneath and around it
A wobbly table, shifting blanket or bump from someone’s knee changes the setup. Clear the likely path of hands and feet and move the drink before adjusting the surface. Steadi is not attached to the furniture.
Choose a different solution when needed
If you need to hang the drink off a rail, use an appropriate mounted holder. If you need to carry it hands-free, use a suitable carrier. If you need to seal liquid, choose drinkware with the appropriate closure. These are distinct jobs.
Know when to stop adjusting
If the drink rocks, leans or does not seat fully, remove it and choose another container or spot. Do not force fit or keep balancing it on an unsuitable surface. Ask Steadi support about the exact container if its geometry is unclear.
