This bottle is easy to use and cool looking. It's convenient not to have to open and close the bottle between sips, but the neoprene nozzle is a magnet for dirt and debris.
Looks that steal... or at least lend to stealing...May 12, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This bottle is so awesome that someone stole it from me the first day I got it. I have since attained a new one basically because of its sheer awesomeness. The suck-y thing is really convenient for quick, easy access. The water seems to stay fresher than with my non-awesome bottle (less backwash I suppose). I would highly recommend that you buy this bottle, but I would also advise that you not leave it lying around. Happy Hydrating!
A great bottle with only a few quirksMay 7, 2007 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is the best water bottle I've ever had. Although there's no easy way to attach Brita bottle filters, of which I have many, it's large enough that I can fill it up with spring or filtered water at home and make it half the day, so only during the second half do I have to live with less than pristine water. I also love the leakproof design, since it has never leaked on me, ever. It does, however, have a few quirks.
It's too large for the cup holders in my car (99 Firebird), although it fits fine in my fiance's car (02 Gallant). Also, because the bottle forms an air-tight seal, if the temperature increases too much between drinks the contents can become pressurized and will shoot out when the mouth piece is opened (but if you know this, it just means you get to drink without doing any work). But that's physics, so I think not having that happen would require not having an air-tight seal.
Overall, though, this is a great water bottle. It looks good, it's durable, and it holds a good amount of water. I can't think of another water bottle I'd rather have.

I loved this bottle till I found green moss in my bite valve. Bad and not so bad, it had been sitting on my counter for a week unused. The problem was when I tried to clean it (I scrubbed it with a little brush, I even soaked it in a bleach solution as a last resort) I could not get all the green stuff off.
Also I have not had it that long, maybe about 6-8 months and the plastic at the base of the thumb tab is starting to go white, showing that it is stressed (and will break at some point).
I still really like this bottle but will not get another.

The title says it all. This bottle is great! The mouthpiece/straw apparatus is actually quite easy to use. I love the fact that I don't have to unscrew a lid and that it's reusable. It does great with cold or hot liquids too. All around good purchase. Highly recommended.
