It is a great water bottle! I love the color and the durability. I upgraded after 7 years from a grey plastic camelback (which I loved, an amazing water bottle that I used all throughout college and my first few years of corporate America). But this bottle is more expensive and clearly better. It feels more sturdy and keeps beverages at a good temperature for longer, I do not have to worry about it heating up the water whilst I am out and about on a hike or sitting in the car. This bottle is an investment, I also bought the top that closes the spout a bit to be a more normal plastic water bottle opening so all in all I spent about $60 or so. But honestly for something I use everyday and will have for years, I think it is worth the investment. Ignore the hype the bottle gets on social media bc it’s trendy and get this water bottle because it’s honestly amazing. I love how much water it holds too. I only have to fill it 3-4 times a day and I drink a LOT of water (I aim for ~4 liters a day). Cannot praise this thing enough

I love this bottle! I am field sales and spend my day in the car driving long distances. After learning how much water I should be consuming I bought one of these for the volume. It fits one of my cup holders in the car which turns out is pretty important for what I need. I add electrolytes, magnesium and creatine and no issues with interior degradation. Its lightweight for the size so easier to carry to the car and maneuver when driving. I added the twist top (which I also love because it fully disassembles for cleaning) which is important because the water runs fast towards you and I was dousing myself on a regular. I'm seriously considering a second one to replace another Hydroflask that doesn't fit the cup holder and is more of a hassle to manage when driving. There is no boot option but thats ok for me and if you were to stuff it in a sack for hiking you'd regret having a sticky boot.

I bought this around black Friday as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend. I wanted him to have a quality bottle and not a cheap piece of crap like he was using. The bottle worked good...for 3 months. Then the vacuum seal failed on the bottle and it would not keep water cold. Water also somehow got in between the walls of the bottle. I contacted HydroFlask for a return and had to pay almost $10 shipping to return the bottle to them. Then when they sent me a replacement, it did not come with a straw lid like the one I had purchased. I don't think I will purchase from HydroFlask again. Had they covered my return shipping, I probably would have felt differently. But HydroFlask is expensive. And I didn't enjoy paying $10 more after only 3 months of use. I could have gotten a lot of stainless steel bottles at Costco for what I invested in this one bottle. I probably won't buy another HydroFlask. As a side note: I filled out the "How Did We Do" survey that they sent me after the return. They never even responded back to me when they heard I was unhappy.

I bought this as a gift for my husband. For a while, he's been wanting a new waterbottle/ tumbler and for the occasional tea but never got around to getting one so I took this as an opportunity to find the right waterbottle for him. And I must say, I can't stop hearing him glorify how great this water bottle is. The handle is a huge plus, because he has big hands and it's comfortable to hold and if you slip it over your 4 or 3 fingers it doesn't hurt than if it were hard plastic. I also got some splash guards that I thought would be useful for when he has his occasional tea but but he hasn't used them yet nor has had tea in it... I did however use the bottle one day and used the splash guard because I have such a tony face/mouth and I was afraid of drenching myself and it held up great, it didn't fall out. The only thing for me is that since the cap is black, maybe I haven't figured it out yet but I do wish there was a way to take out the rubber ring inside the cap to clean so that mold doesn't build up, because you can see water gets under it. it's a great tumbler otherwise and since I recently lost one of my own, I'm thinking to get one of these myself
