This bottle is just great! It has ounces measurements inside the bottle, two ways to drink via straw or by tilting up the bottle, and has a little carrier hook that doubles as a lock mechanism to prevent the bottle from opening on accident! It motivates me to drink water especially when it keeps it cold almost the whole day. I always have water bottles around my room because they end up becoming room temperature and hot so i neglect plastic bottled water. I even got one for my mom and she loves it! It already comes with a built in straw which comes in handy for her as she used to carry one and loses it all the time. Perfect for any occasion really. I use my old water bottle for flavored drinks now when I pack my lunches for work/school and I exclusively use the bottle for water throughout the day. There are many colors available too! I only wish that I could pick my own colors on the bottle. For example I got the purple one and I wish I could change the hook/lock thingy to a lime green as the purple & green are my favorite color combinations.

This review may be wordy, sorry in advance. I just want you to believe my passion behind this product! I can't tell you how many bottles and cups I've tried in the past, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. I'd *always* just resort to filling up a random plastic water bottle with no lid and use it to chug water throughout the day. It was easy, no twisting off a cap or lid. My boyfriend would make fun of me because when it fell over (and it always would) the plastic water bottle just make a tsunami on the floor. He begged me to get a decent bottle I'd like, and actually use. Along came a random ad for Owala. I didn't initially purchase a , but when he was looking to upgrade his tired old twist off quart bottle, I showed him the ad. We said, "what the heck, seems legit." It was, my friends, indeed legit. :) I loved the purple and he got the black. Immediately upon my first sip I said, "whoa--really?" The straw function is has the best suction I've ever had in any straw. It's takes barely any effort to get a big swig, or a dainty sip. I just love it! My boyfriend is more of a chugger, so he took off the straw and chugs his. He loves the locking feature and the fact it fits in his car cupholder (24oz version) When we realized how much we loved these bottles we've spread the word. Every one of our family and friends now has one (or more--because they adore them too!) I think I've bought close to 30 bottles--so this is no fly by night review. I hope Owala gets huge and comes out with more amazing products and colors. For the price, you can't afford not to try it! You won't want another bottle, promise! <3

I am a nurse and now own 5 of these!! I keep one for work, one at my boyfriends, a large and a small for home. I have bought 2 for my boyfriend (which he says finally keeps him from spilling on himself while working out). I convinced my hairdresser to buy one also and have given many demonstrations at work. I am a huge fan! Keeps drinks cold forever!

I m grateful for the saving to medical professionals. I was able to get bottles for my family affordably. We ve had them about 2 weeks and no other bottle has been used. I bought one 32oz and the others were 24 oz s. If the 32 oz fit in my cars cup holder I d love it even more. Keeps my water iced throughout workday even with a few refills.

I love . Water stays cold for hours. It s so convenient and I enjoy drinking water from it. I would give it 5 stars but it doesn t handle impact as well as I d like. The top broke and it s the second time it has done this. I will still continue to get these bottles, I just wish they were a bit more durable.

We bought four bottles and so far they are all good to go. The wife has one, and three of the kids are using them for school and so far they have held up very well. The concept of a straw and open bottle in one is pretty neat. We would recommend them.

I have a lot of water bottles. A LOT. But this one is definitely a game changer. I wasn t sure about the spout, but it is SO good. I personally drink more when I m using a straw but I also get super grossed out when the lids and straws have so many pieces and rubber parts where germs can hide. This lid is great, simple and easy to clean with no hidden crevices or seals to get gross. I love the spout, it feels comfortable and is so easy to use. My kids are often trying to steal my bottle. The œchug  part is a little weird, so I hardly every use it that way, but I do like the option if someone else is drinking out of it so they don t necessarily have to put their mouth on my cup! I hope they come out with more colors and maybe a slightly bigger size, that s one of my only complaints- I drink so much more water now I m constantly refilling it!

I ve bought every bottle out there for myself and my school-age daughter. Owala is the best without a doubt! The spout is easy to drink from the straw or the spout and it s hard so no mold build up to worry about. Wide bottle opening makes it easy to add ice and it definitely stays cold for 24 hours. Guess it s time to find a different addiction, lol.

I really love these water bottles. As a healthcare worker, I am especially thankful that I do not have to touch that part of the bottle from which I drink. Also nice that the locking mechanism doubles as a handle, making this bottle easier to carry while walking. Aside from these useful features, the colors are fantastic amd unique- there is no mistaking which bottle is mine!

Sams has Best price around for these bottles. The chug feature isn’t great but we use the straw and it’s excellent for workouts. My equestrian daughter says it’s just right for drinking on the horse during breaks. Also EASY clean few parts. We’ve got a sets. Donating all other brands.
