I’ve tried several water bottle brands (e.g., Swell, Camelbak) and HydroFlask is my favorite! I’ve used my bottle every day for over 3 years, and would highly recommend! SHAPE / USABILITY I LOVE the top handle - I bring my bottle to the gym and work and love that I can carry it on a finger while also holding other things like my phone, towels, gym equipment, etc. I like the shape of the opening and find that it is easy to clean the inner lip. I live my 21 oz size and will refill it 5-6 times between work and the gym. I’ve found if I don’t completely tighten the lid and throw a full bottle in a bag, it might spill a little, however I usually carry it empty it upright. FUNCTIONALITY The bottle is very insulating - I’ve found that it keep water cold for over 24 hours. At work I’ll fill it up and keep it open on my desk and water is still nice and cool hours later. WEAR AND TEAR Considering I’ve used my bottle every day for over 3 years, I’d say it looks fantastic! I always bring it with me to travel as well. I’ve dropped it several times (knocking it off a bench, dripping from waist high) and it’s held up pretty well. The bottom lip is slightly dented and only a tiny bit of the paint has chipped. Because I have the white color, it shows scratches and fingerprints more, but it’s not too noticeable. Would highly recommend and I’ll definitely be purchasing in more colors!

Really Accessible and Great Quality! My Hydro Flask is the best water bottle I have ever had. With all the different colors and sizes to choose from, I had an easy time finding the one I liked most. They are easy to take with you wherever you go as well. Personalization wise, they are very good with stickers. You can put on whatever stickers you want to make it more personal to you. I have put stickers on mine and none of them are even close to coming off. Just make sure when you put one on, you want it on for good. Another thing I like is how there are many different types of lids that you can use and switch out whenever you want. I have been staying hydrated ever since I got my Hydro Flask because I can carry water with me everywhere I go. The accessibility of a Hydro Flask is just what anyone would need in a water bottle. Most Hydro Flasks range from 30-50 dollars. Which to me, is quite a lot for something you are just going to be putting water in. But let me tell you now, it is worth the money. In the mornings, when I put water and ice in my Hydro Flask, I can leave it somewhere for the whole day and when I come back for it, the ice is still there. Or when it is cold and I’m wanting some hot chocolate, I could bring it in my Hydro Flask and it would stay warm for a really long period of time. None of my other water bottles or containers can do that. The Hydro Flask that I have now has lasted me 3 years and is still in almost perfect condition. The only reason it wouldn’t be in perfect condition is because I drop it every once in a while and it has some scratches and a couple dents. If I was more careful, it would look brand new. Hydro Flasks are definitely worth the money and I would recommend everyone get one.

I’ve had a lot of water bottles but this is my favourite. I love the colour options and I love how long it keeps drinks cool, especially if you stick an ice cube in it as well. It also keeps soup etc warm for ages. The only negative I have to say is I expected it to be a tad more sturdy. The first time I took this out on a hike I dropped it on the pavement from about waist height before I even got on the trail and it immediately dented in multiple places. I was pretty disappointed but it wouldn’t put me off buying another in the future. Just that I would recommend not taking this anywhere where it could get knocked about unless you don’t care about it getting damaged. Other than that it’s perfect to have for home / work.

I thought I would get a straw lid bottle for the first time to take with me on long walks. I opted for a bigger capacity bottle than usual (but still slim enough to grab with one hand easily) so that it can fit enough water for me and my boyfriend. I was so sad to find out that I really don't like it. 50% of first sips are air and I made sure to have my straw stuck in all the way. It's also mildly annoying that about 3 fl. oz. of water always gets left behind. The narrow neck was good to grab onto when sipping, but that also meant that it came a narrow handle that I found to be inconvenient. This is my first purchase and I regret not ordering something else.
