Takeya Actives Water Bottle with Spout Lid - Bottle with Double Stainless Steel Insulation - Dishwasher Safe & BPA-Free - Bottle with Spout Lid & Removable Bumper - 24 oz, Ombre Pacific Blue

Great quality keeps drinks hot or cold

This is the absolute best water bottle I have ever owned. Happened upon one in the thrift store, and was stunned at how long it kept my drink cold on a scorching hot day (freezing cold, with ice still in it, 24 hours later). Made of sturdy materials, which is great, because it gets used a LOT. Love the spout - I hate cleaning the straws and the tops with tiny holes, and feel like there is place for ick to grow in them - but I feel like when I wash this, it's CLEAN. It's the right size (24 oz) for me, and easy to carry with the handle, even when I am also carrying a camp chair, a camera bag, a food cooler and all the rest of the detritus you bring with you to youth sports games. Seal is excellent - it could be knocked on the ground at a baseball game by a 70 mph fastball and not lose the seal (do not ask how I know this). The silicone seal does not seem to degrade with repeated washing, either - the thrift store one is from 3 years ago (and who knows how much longer it was used before that) and still going strong. I loved the thrift store purchase so much, I did the research and found the same model online (albeit a new, different color), and could not believe they were so on sale (19.99, I think). A true bargain. And now mine won't get stolen by my kid every time I put it down - we'll each have our own. I'm gonna buy one for my mom and husband, too. Seriously - this is one of the few products in life that you will like even better than you thought you would.

As advertised - the best!

I've owned several water bottles over the years. I like a certain kind. The large opening at the is good for adding ice and the small spout is easy to drink out of. I'm not a fan of the water bottles with straws or any other opening to drink out of. These are simple and easy to use. Probably 15 years ago I got a bottle pretty much the same design as this one that was plastic. Then I bought a few Thermos brand bottles. They kept changing their design and some are super expensive. There is a cheaper brand of these and I just decided to go ahead and purchase these for a couple of reasons. One the colors and two I just wanted to see what the difference is. The only difference is the cap and how it seals to the bottle. That's is. The real reason I love these is the rubber bottom protector they have on these bottles. Over the years I've destroyed the bottoms of my bottoms. To the point I've dropped them so much they can't hardly stand on their own. That little bit of rubber makes these last. The only other thing I don't like is is the small cap for the spout it's hard to clean. You can and will have to take the rubber gasket out and clean it but it seems to stay looking dirty even though it's not. Overall these are my favorite style bottles and I hope they continue to make them.

It is a nice size (fits in my car cupholder), keeps my drinks cold, and is a pretty color. I give it 4 stars because I would prefer the mouthpiece to not have to be twisted on and off every time to open it. Also, when I removed the thin silicone ring inside to clean it, I couldn't figure out how to put it back inside the bottle. So I ditched the ring, and now it leaks out the sides. I should have tried harder to put it back in. That being said, the overall design of this bottle is decently functional and stylish for anyone on the go. ✅
