HYDRO CELL Stainless Steel Insulated Water Bottle with Straw – For Cold & Hot Drinks – Metal Vacuum Flask with Screw Cap and Modern Leakproof Sport Thermos for Adults (Teal/Blue… by HYDRO CELL

We have been looking for a good water bottle for a long time: it had to be right price , material, durability and We are an active family and so far have 3 bottles by Hydro Cell , 2 x24oz aand 1x 18oz. We LOVE them. Great quality, the paint feel like High grade powder coat , actually nicer than my Yeti. Bottles hold temperature really well, are comfortable to hold. We love the fact that we get two tops And that the straw on the sport top comes off ( I don’t use it, my wife loves it) . The customer service is fantastic! I dropped my bottle ( on concrete) when sport top was open and it started to leak a bit. Ordered new one on Hydro Cell USA site ( $7.99 and free shipping ) and within 5 min I got email that I missed key Information for the order, I answered and within next 20 min got email that information was received and confirmation is coming. Next day I got shipping confirmation . The whole time i felt like I’m talking to my buddy , not a customer service rep, it was so personal ! Thank you Jordan for your assistance , we will be buying more of your products .

What designates a “5-star” product from a “4-star” product? For me, its when a product goes above and beyond. You think, what could a stinkin’ water bottle do that is “above and beyond”? Well, I’m happy to say that this product is made in the USA, the water bottles are elegantly designed and have care and thought put into them: you can’t imagine how difficult it is to pick out a large waterbottle that actually fits in a standard cupholder! It comes with two caps, to fit your usage. Their customer service is ultra fast, friendly, and helpful. The price is right, and above all else, can you believe the product actually works as advertised? Super cold or warm drinks for the whole day. To me, all that combined makes this a stellar product and one that I’m happy to use, and recommend wholeheartedly!

When I first got the product I assumed it was just like any other waterbottle/cheap thing you buy on Amazon, it comes from some other country, and has no instructions and a bunch of cheap accessories they throw on to inflate the price and make it seem like a better value. I’ve been taught this from too many Amazon products. So, I was not surprised when I unboxed it filled it up and the next morning went to drink and ended up with water pouring out down my chin.

Over the next few days I started drinking a LOT more water, because the bottle was attractive, it fit in my cupholders at work and in my car, it was convenient, and it kept the beverage enjoyable because it was ice cold- just the way I like it.

But it leaked, every time I took a sip… Disappointed, I contacted customer service to initiate a return. I was really kind of sad. The customer service person was overtly polite and apologetic and wanted to ship out a return at no cost. They even wanted me, again, fully prepaid, to return the bottle to them so they could inspect it for manufacturing defects, which I was more than happy to do. What company does that? Not many that I’ve dealt with. Most just want the product back so they know you aren’t scamming them. However, after I started talking about a return, I did some Youtube investigating because I wanted to see if perhaps the leak was specific to the 24oz bottle or something. As I went through reviews, nobody mentioned it. And finally I stumbled upon an unboxing video where they showed someone putting the water bottle together and that’s where it hit me. There is 2 straw accessories included with the water bottle. These accessories I assumed had to do with the other bottle cap that came with the product. Or, I assumed it was for if you literally just didn’t want to put a cap on at all so you could drink out of the bottle. I don’t know what I was thinking. I clearly wasn’t. But anyway, after looking at the video I realized that it was leaking, because the straw cap is meant to be used in conjunction with one of these straws on the inside of the bottle. That way, you aren’t inverting the entire water bottle upside to drink out of an open hole. What an idiot!

After I realized this, I tested it, and of course it worked. I went back to customer service and immediately told them my error. I’d like to call out Jordan who was the representative who was very helpful the whole way and may have chuckled to himself but never made me feel like an idiot.

As I mentioned, the bottle looks great, and has made me drink more water each day. I think from a combination of it being nice and cold, and from the flashy bottle being in my peripheral vision to remind me to drink. In fact, each day, even though I know you should be drinking more than one 24oz bottle a day, I have to make baby steps. And each day I come home with a bottle that was full in the morning that has less and less each progressive day. I call that a win, and it is all due to this product.

I would completely recommend this product to anyone. And plan to pick up some more bottle soon as gifts. My only negative would be that it should come with some basic instructions on how to care for it, and maybe a little idiot-proof diagram that shows if you use the straw cap, that there is an interior straw that needs to be added.

Awesome water bottle! Extremely tough an the paint holds up extremely well to abuse. Both caps are very well made very durable! Keeps things hot for 24 hours plus. Keeps things cold just aswell. It will not freeze over night if you forget it in the car or something! Just an awesome bottle if your rough on your gear. I toss mine around. it bounces around the floor of my machine all day/night you won’t regret you purchase!

We’ve been using these bottles for years now, getting our kids a new set each school year and cycling the old ones out for camping and sports. Mine last 3-4 years before I finally upgraded simply due to age and dings. They work so well, and you honestly can’t beat the price. Ice water still has ice in it 2-3 days later. They look good, are a great size for most cup holders, and come with both lid styles (and the newest batch came with extra straws, which is just awesome – sometimes they do get cracked after enough daily usage). Sure, they are metal, so they do get dinged up when you drop them, but it doesn’t really affect their use. The color selections are great, always something that looks good for both adults and teens – though it matters less when they put a ton of stickers on it right away. They’re also easy to clean; while too narrow to get my hand in there, any bottle brush or sponge works great, and the lid/straw is easy to clean up without too many moving parts.

This is the most fantastic water bottle made!! I filled mine up with icy cold water. It was still icy cold the next morning after having drank 80% of the water. I had to test that out. It likely stays cold longer, however I regularly use mine, so I had to wash it out, I have a straw brush to clean the straw. *You’ll need to buy one if you don’t have one. They send you extra straws, however no cleaner brush. I’m a bit ocd in keeping my bottle/straw clean!

I bought the cord carrying handle which I found was very convenient and sturdy to carry the bottle vs putting it in a bag or awkwardly carrying it. 64 ouches is big. To attach the corded handle, you dip the ring in hot water and push over the opening of the bottle. Very easy.

And I bought the silicone base as I take it to work and I didn’t want to be making metal bang noises. Or slip and crash to the floor.
I just pushed the bottle into it. Super easy.

Great color options, selection of sizes, retains temperature, the cap is a bit snug to put on/off, however that is needed for proper security of water to not leak. It is easy enough to remove after a couple of uses.

I am immensely pleased and plan to buy my family 64 ounce bottles for their next birthdays. And I love the happy, fun neon green color! No boring color for me.
