Purchased 2 of these for my boys as replacements for the Dasani water bottles they take to school every day. I wanted to cut down on the cost of buying bottled water so often, as well as be more "green" and eco friendly.
My first thought was that these are extremely well made. Very solid, but not too heavy for my 9 and 11 year old kids. I thought that the surface might attract nasty finger prints, but hand and finger oils don't seem to make marks, so far. Cleaning the outside and inside for initial use was easy. The inside I simply ran super hot water in it and put some Dawn in it and rinsed it out for 2 or 3 minutes.
I may end up purchasing the sports cap, as unscrewing the lid is fairly noisy, unless you put pressure down on the cap consistently while spinning it. My kids will be drinking these potentially during class time and the metallic clanking noise may be an issue for the teachers.
As a test I filled one of these all the way with tap water at the hottest temperature possible and the other with cold tap water with a handful of full sized ice cubes and left them both for nearly 24 hours (closer to 20). I was extremely impressed with the results. The hot water's temp had only dropped slightly. The cold water's temp was still extremely cold. Ice cold, in spite of the cubes themselves having melted.
Great bottles and about $10 cheaper than you can find at retail stores like Whole Foods. The build quality is great and they'll last a long time, as long as my kids don't lose them at school first... :-\
