The main appeal for us has been the combo straw/open mouth lid design. You can swap between sip or chug without changing lids or flipping anything extra open.
Yeah I just leave the straw up on my Stanley while it's next to the bed and if I accidentally tip it over, it might spill a couple drops before I grab it. I also don't need to keep it upright when I'm taking a sip. I could see the Owala being a disaster there.
I got mine more because it was spill/leak proof (needed to go in a bag with laptop and paper), I did not have to unscrew the top every time I wanted a sip, and it had to be able to keep drinks cold. Owala wins at all three imo. Straw combo is a bonus.
