I have bought these for my kids for school. With all the covid stuff, water fountains at school have been shut down and they will need a water bottle. They have not used them yet, but they look pretty in the water bottle pocket of their backpacks! The were shipped really quick!

This is my favorite water bottle, we use them all the time. I love being able to fill it with ice water and still have it ice cold when I get done with work and need a refreshing drink. It's perfect for hiking in the heat as well because it keeps your drink cold for a long time! The rubber band that snaps opens the lid did break but it's still easily used, I just hold it open with my finger. Love these water bottles!

I appreciate that it keeps my cold water cold aaaaaaall day, & it fits easily in my cars cup holder, & it’s an easily accessible sip of water while I’m driving. It’s really my first water bottle purchase, so I’ve nothing to compare it to, but so far, so good.

This is by far the best stainless steel water bottle I’ve ever purchased! The locking flip top lid and soft drinking split are my favorite things about it. Mine have gotten a ton of use and everything is in good working order. I recommend these to all my friends and keep extras in case I lose one.

I'm liking the 26 oz capacity. Its not too small, not too heavy. The insulation is serious too - my water is staying cold for a day+. My intent was to get some sturdy water bottles with a flip top lid and get rid of all my old twist tops. I LOVE THESE

Unfortunately these ended up leaking right around the mouth piece, even when locked. And they do get dinged up pretty easily. On the plus side they do keep water cold and ice for about 8 hrs. my high school and junior high kids have been taking them to school for 2 wks now.

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:(

We really like these bottles. We've actually bought three sets of them. HOWEVER, the lids are a problem. Three times they have broken. One just failed and the other two broke when dropped about 2 feet out of the fridge door onto laminate floor. The bottles themselves are really sturdy and stay cold. The lids not so much.

These lids have a reputation for breaking and Zulu has non-existant customer service despite their lifetime warranty. They don't respond to their customer service email or the warranty form. Sam's Club came through with their great refund or replacement policy but I'd steer clear of these.

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.
