Iron Flask Sports Water Bottle - 64 Oz, 3 Lids, Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel, Hot & Cold, Wide Mouth, Double Walled, Hydro Metal Canteen, Mid Black

UPDATE (as of 8/31/2019):Even though this bottle does what it promises (keeps your drinks hot/cold), the durability on these = horrible.Although I would expect dents to happen if you drop it, what I didn’t expect is from the BOTTOM to become unglued and fall off. I ordered two more of these BEFORE this happened and low key may return them just because of the durability.—I ordered this because I am a huge water drinker. I usually keep water by my bed every night because at some point, I'll surely wake up and want some. I felt that this was the perfect alternative to The Coldest Water and their extremely overpriced water bottle ($99 for the same thing? I think NOT).My only complaint about this is that sometimes, it's difficult to suck from it AND it makes noise while you're drinking. It's a weird "whizzing" noise. I oftentimes have to take the lid off, try and readjust the straw/make sure it's not too loose, etc., and then try again. I'm not sure if that's just a functional thing for ALL bottles like this, or if it's just something that mine does. I literally use this thing all day, every day (I drink 2-3 a day), and that is the ONLY thing that I don't like about it. If anyone has had similar issues, let me know.

I got this 64oz because we change vehicles at work and had no place to put my 2lt camel pack. I liked the sip lid and straw with a handle. It was hard to find a spot to put this bottle so it is secure but eventually found I was able to put it behind the head rest of the passenger side and the cab. I had it there for about 2wks with no problems. One day I grabbed it by the handle to get a drink and the lid came off spilling 64oz of water all over the car. I placed is on the passenger seat near my brief case which is secured by seatbelt. It came loose and fell on the floor board. The lid popped opended and spilled another 64oz of water on to the floor board. This is good if you got desk job or at home but transportaion needs it is a pain. I was used 5050 cord to rig a way to secure ny camel pack and went back to using that. I looked at the sip lid and threads and the threading is very weak. You can carry it but be careful because the lid can come loose and fall.

this review is for the 64oz bottle in black. I purchased 2.1. Made in China.2. I soaked both bottles in very hot soapy water for 15 minutes. After rinsing I noticed the bottom of the water bottle on the inside is pressed into the sleeve, and around that sleeve was a black ring noticeable in both bottles at the bottom. I ran paper towels around the base on the inside and pulled off what looks to be oil or some sort from manufacturing. I get that this part of the manufacturing process, but being made in China who knows what the substance actually is.3. Included in the box was 3 caps, one stainless steel cap with loop, one sip top with 3 straws. And one cap with a U handle. Their website states that the 3rd cap should be a flip cap for hot beverages. I didn’t get one of those.4. Both boxes came labeled as new, however both factory seals on the top of the boxes had been opened. Not sure if they’re new? Might explain #25. Build quality seems to be good, I haven’t used them at work yet because I just bought them. But time will tell.Overall if you purchase these , make sure to really really clean the insides. Had I not spent 20 minutes cleaning eat each one who knows what magical potions from china id be drinking ..

I got this for work on the highway crew -- the plastic Coleman type of containers always broke the handles -- and they would get a hole in the side, to expose the insulation - from a puncture or something. NOW the Iron Flask this baby is dented up on the bottom pretty good --- it's been dropped, fell out of trucks, fell off the roller --- and it's holding up just fine from the abuse it gets ---- seems to keep water relatively cool for an 8 hour day -- it has a rubber drinking nipple -- which turns out to slip on and off --- so don't lose it --- but it works fantastic while drying to take a drink on a bumpy vibrating roller machine, a loader, or even in the dumptruck while your bouncing around ---- it never hurts your mouth ---- I LOVE THE IRON FLASK

So, I ended up returning this bottle because it came damaged (so this doesn't reflect that issue) But oh man, I had no idea how big this bottle would be. It looked like an air tank I used for paintball back in the day for extended runs without having to refill...which I guess is the point of this size of a bottle. It's tall enough where it wouldn't fit into normal shelves in my refrigerator. It had plenty of lid options to suit your needs as a drink bottle (still can't see how anyone could use it this way easily) or as a thermos (more likely better use for the bottle)I'm sure if I'd kept it, I'd have found a use for it. But make no mistake, this thing isn't gonna fit in ANY car cup holder (it wouldn't even fit into any of the ones in my truck which have much larger cup holders than average cars)I'd say it's best used for camping, long hikes and maybe as water pitcher to keep in the fridge for quick refills of smaller water bottles.

TL;DR I'm satisfied, and I highly recommend. I was currently using the 32Oz Hyrdoflask which I absolutely love. I love the fact that I can put it in ice, and hours later, the water is still freezing cold with the ice still in it for the most part. I wanted to buy a 64Oz bottle, but I didn't want to spend that Hyrdroflask money so I gave this one a try and I'm not at all disappointed. The look is sleek, and functionality wise, it does exactly what I'd expect. It keeps my cold water cold the entire day (and through the night even). The fact that it comes with multiple tops is also a win. With the straw top (I usually hate straw tops), the water comes up easy and my eyebrows don't go up to my hairline from trying too hard to suck the water out. You won't be disappointed!
