I bought 2 bottles, one for me and one for my daughter. We love them! I love the straw feature, it helps me drink more water! I also love that they are leak proof, and the handle is much bigger than on other bottles I have. The water stays cold a long time, and the colors are so cute (we got the "Flamingo' and 'Basil' colors - both are great!).

I have a collection of insulated bottles and I like them because it keeps beverage cold for a day or more but the design is a lot less desired. Enter the from Owala. I have to say that the design is well thought out. First is having the option to either sip or chug. Most water bottles with a built in straw is very difficult to drink from. In order to be able to drink using a straw from an enclosed system, you need a hole to allow air to enter the bottle and thus be able to take a sip. Unfortunately these water bottles have only a pinhead-sized hole which gets occluded with the fluid from the beverage. The only way to sip effectively is to twist the lid open. With the Owala , the chug opening is so huge that there is no force required to take a sip using the straw. That is what makes the straw work effectively. And if you're really thirsty, you can chug it down as the other option. Second, is the built-in handle. It makes holding the bottle more comfortable without having to always grip the bottle or cradle it or tuck it in your arms. Third... you can put carbonated beverages contrary to what Owala says on their website. The only suggestion is to slightly twist the lid open to allow the excess carbonation to escape so that the beverage doesn't overflow from the straw. Otherwise it works! I use my to drink my homemade seltzer from. If there is anything that I would request is for the company to make bigger capacity bottles. I drink a lot and the 32 oz capacity is small especially considering that you add ice. This is coming from someone who uses an 84 oz bottle on a regular day. Also I would like for Owala to make silicone sleeves for the bottles so that the paint doesn't get scratched. Otherwise, I have to say that Owala is the best insulated water bottle in the market. And thank you for giving nurses a discount. Because of that, I bought every single color option you had!

My mom gave Owala bottles to everyone for Christmas last year. I love my so much, I purchased 5 more of them - one for each of my kids and a few extras to have around. The best feature by far is the ease of cleaning the bottle. I also love how you can sip or gulp, based on how you're feeling.

Pretty great overall with two very annoying flaws. The push-flip sometimes gets stuck so you have to help it open (defeating the purpose of the push button flip). The other major flaw is how difficult it is to screw the lid open and closed when you refill it. Maybe the threads are off a little or maybe it ll get easier eventually, but it s a little annoying to wrestle the lid on and back off each time you refill. A little disappointing, other than these flaws it s a pretty perfect bottle.

Absolutely love the product !!! So easy to use and keeps water cold for a long time. After about two weeks of using the lid randomly broke at the hinge which was very disappointing and you can t individually buy a lid so now i have to buy a whole new water bottle.

I really can't say enough good things about this water bottle. Never wrote a water bottle review before, but here we go: I bought 2, one for me and one for my son hoping it would help us drink more water and - it has. We are carrying these with us everywhere we go, I love the heavy duty handles and the click tight leak proof lid- Mom win right there! We love the straw feature and the pour feature is great for getting some water out quickly to the dog on the hike. Keeps water cold without issue. No weird smells or tastes (I know you know what I mean!) Overall - Great water bottle ~ I'm really trying to be selective about the stickers I add to it cuz its gonna be around for a while. aœŒ

I love the concept and the function of drinking from these bottles. My kids love them too. Problem is that the lids are difficult to close--especially on my youngest's bottle. This means that the kids frequently don't bother to close the lid, and as you can imagine, we've had a lot of spills--not so great with the chuggable feature. Maybe when they are both older I can try again. For now, I had to go back to something with a regular straw that's easier to close. Good news is: now I have some bright colorful water bottles to use.

This water bottle is fantastic! I own a 32oz which is awesome and also bought a 24oz to take on my travels because it fits in my cupholder better. It keeps the water nice and cold all the time and I love the spout/straw opening. The handle provides easy carrying and also acts as a lock to prevent the lid from popping open so it doesn t spill when I have it in my backpack. Highly recommend!!

The ability to drink and sip on the straw at the same time is a game changer. It's incredible and designed super well. The outside design is so easy to hold on to and the powder coating on the outside has way more grip than any competitor. If you're considering a competitor, DON'T, this is the best in class.

Perfect for for drinking water if you love drinking from a straw but don t Want to carry one around everywhere you go or expose it in public places with COVID. As a health care provider, I feel safe and confident drinking from this and am able to drink more water because of it! Would highly recommend to anyone.
