I ordered 2 sets of the Zulu 26oz stainless Insulated Water Bottles 2-packs. Being these water bottles were bought to be used in the parks all day the main sales pitch was the “New Germ Guardian” feature on the drinking surface…But I didn't receive the new update bottles with the germ guardian, I instead received what I believe to be the older version of the bottles. Customer service sent me replacements for both sets trying to receive the actual products that I believed I was purchasing in the first place with the germ guardian but the new replacements are the same older version bottles without it again! So even though I'm disappointed because of the lack of actually getting what I've ordered and the false advertising, the water bottles do hold ice for the stated 24hrs and they are very good quality, just not as updated as the updated ones! It would have been great if what was advertised was what I got -just feels like a bait and switch to push out the older inventory:(

I've purchased a total of 4 of these since the beginning of the year, one for each member of my family, because we absolutely LOVE these! HOWEVER, three of the lids have broken, the culprit being the little rubber O ring that causes the lid to flip. After less than a year, needless to say, I'm severely disappointed. LOVE the product, but can't use them anymore.

I've been using these for 6 months and I love them for my intended use. They do not leak and are very easy to clean. They do stay cold for a few hours. They do not not prevent ice from melting. Your drink will stay cold but will be only cool if out in the sun after 4 hours. I made a drink with ice and left this in a hot car for 6 hours, and my drink was still cool and drinkable......but not icy cold as if in a glass of ice. Does it work: yes. Is it the best option on the market: no. This will not prevent ice from melting...and that is the only negative issue that I have.

I love how they fit in my car drink holder and they stay cold throughout the day even if you leave them in the car on hot summer days. My boys take them to the gym and to work. We have our own colors so we don't get them mixed up. I get us all new ones every year cause you can't beat the price and we stick with the same colors. will definitely buy again

It's a nice bottle at a good price, but the hinge WILL fail, it's just a matter of time. Well, not the whole hinge, but the o ring that pops the hinge open will fail. It can be replaced by you (Zulu is NO help), but over time the metal pin will degrade the plastic, I'm sure.

Best water bottles on market, wish they weren't out of replacement lids!!!

Pretty good water bottle don’t drop it or it will dent

They don't keep the water cold, only cool.

Love the big spout and the lock so it doesnt open up on its own

Very nice insulated water bottles. Great price
