[{'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Because of the verbiage in Hydro Cell’s ad on Amazon, I thought my new, 22 oz flask would come equipped with a straw cap as well as the full cover. However, this was not the case and when I contacted Hydro Cell about it they immediately, (and I mean five seconds after I went to their website and posted my concern) assured me they’d be sending out a straw (Sports) cap today. I was so impressed by their customer service, as well as their beautiful and functional product, that to not give them five stars would have been a real crappy move. Dean was the person I spoke with and he was courteous and professional. I’ll be going back to Hydro Cell for their other flasks, for sure!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Love this water bottle! I drink between 1 and 2 gallons of water a day, so the water bottle I use is very important to me. I’d been feeling weird from using my plastic Nalgene bottle. I’ve heard from a lot of sources that even if the plastic is BPA-free, it still affects the water quality and puts harmful plastic byproducts into the water. I’ve made the switch to hydro cell and feel much better about the fact that the stainless steel interior will not get into my water. As a bonus, this does not sweat and keeps my water cold for an incredible amount of time! I filled my bottle with ice water before a round of golf the other day, left it in my car in an 85 degree, full sunny day, and I came back 5 hours later to water that was still refreshingly cold. Did that again while working out for an hour, and none of the ice melted (see attached pics). I’m super impressed so far and have recommended this bottle to my family, who are now all buying one themselves. Give this a try - it’s worth the investment!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I’m so happy with this water bottle. I take it everywhere with me (I try to stay hydrated throughout the day). I fill it up with cold water\nin the morning and add ice. It always stays cold for at least 24 hours. The ice does melt but very slowly. And for condensation…well, there really isn’t any.\nIt’s always dry no matter how much cold water I have inside.\nThe sport cap works great too. You open it up and there’s a straw. It doesn’t leak too too which is amazing. I actually tested it out by lying\nthe bottle on its side for 30 minutes. No water came out. So I don’t have to worry about throwing it in my bag when I’m in a rush. I don’t use the\nstainless steel cap as often but it didn’t give me any trouble the few times I used it.\nWashing is simple as long as you use  a bottle brush  (you can’t fit your hand into it otherwise). All I drink is water so I clean\nit every few days. Hot water, dish soap and some vinegar in the sink is all you need. The lid, I do take it off so I can wash it separately.\nThe whole thing is also dishwasher safe if you prefer that.\nThe only negative for me is that it doesn’t fit in standard cup holders. For reference, I have 40 oz. Luckily I don’t use the car much nowadays\nso it isn’t that big of an issue but I thought I’d mention that in this review. The 24 oz from when I’ve read does fit however so maybe get that\nif you want to make use of the cupholders.\nSo overall it was a great buy. I love it and would recommend to anyone. There are several vibrant colors to choose from too which is always a nice bonus.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "I absolutely love this water bottle! It goes everywhere with me - I'm never away from ice cold water. When filling the bottle to the top with ice and adding water, the water stays cold for at least 36 hours. With the 40 oz bottle, the ice melts at a rate of about 1/3 every 12 hours. I don't use the steel lid much, but it does work well the few times I have used it.\n\nThe sport lid with the flip up straw works great! It doesn't leak. I tested it when I first received the bottle by filling it with ice and water, then laid it next to me on my bed and left it for an hour. The sport lid isn't as well insulated as the steel lid, so condensation formed on the lid. But the bottle definitely DID NOT leak. This was with the straw closed, of course. Generally, even if the straw is open and the bottle tips, it will not leak. This is because the air hole will be blocked with the water, preventing the water from leaking out of the straw.\n\nThe only negative about the 40oz bottle is it doesn't fit in the cup holder of my Chevy Malibu or my Veracruz. However, I just lay the bottle down on the passenger seat. A small amount of condensation might form on the lid after my 40 minute commute, but I also live in an area with > 80% humidity. I accepted the risk that the bottle might not fit in the cup holder - it's worth it for the 40 oz capacity. It sits on TOP of the cup holder/center console without problem, if necessary.\n\nI purchased 18oz bottles for each of my kids to carry around with them. One of my sons will only drink water if it is ICE cold. Other cups he would use would only keep the water cold for about 3 hours. He's 5 and sips water throughout the day. He likes that he can have ice water all day and doesn't need to wait for me to add ice throughout the day. The 18 oz and another 22 oz bottle I purchased all fit easily in the cup holders and are easier for the kids to handle.\n\nIn total, we purchased 5 of these - the 40oz, 3 18oz and 1 22oz. Super happy; worth every penny; love the finish on the bottle.\n\nI recommend a silicon sleeve. It will help protect against drops, which haven't happened yet... but with 3 kids carrying these around, they are going to bounce around..."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Okay, so I wanted a leak-proof, insulated, large, good-quality water bottle and this is definitely it. I've been using the straw-top and love that it's also leak-proof and I don't have to lift the whole bottle upside down because this sucker is HEAVY. This is not a negative and I didn't take a star off for it, because it's only because of my arthritis that the weight of this thing is an issue. Not having to lift and pour the water but instead just flipping open the lid and using the straw is awesome for me. I drink only the iciest-cold water I can get and this guy keeps my water cold all day."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I ordered one for my wife for Christmas. Within two weeks the lid/straw combo stopped working and we were only able to suck up air. We requested an exchange and received the new water bottle with the same exact issue. There is no option to contact this seller. And I am tired or wasting my time printing out return labels and having to take the bottle in to UPS to return it. Will not buy another one of these again. Waste of time and money.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'This is an amazing little water bottle. I have 2 40oz and 1 24oz water bottle. One of the things I love about this brand is that the sport cap and the "regular" cap fits all the water bottles. They are interchangeable (except the straw length on the 40oz is longer than the 24oz but the straws are removeable so you can move those around too). And the paint or water bottle color has lasted through 4 months of daily use by a 12yr old at school and sports practices/games. Coffee stays piping hot. Ice lasts well past a day. One of my sports caps had a slight issue. I contacted Hydro Cell via the info on their packaging. Easy Peasy - they answered promptly and with no hassle sent out a replacement cap. Coudn\'t be more pleased.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I filled one with an already iced drink, adding more ice.\nTwo and one half hours later, no ice at all.\nThat was with the metal lid. The lid is the problem. It bleeds cold. You can touch the bottle and it is temperature neutral, but the lid is cold. That is the cold leaving the bottle.\nI returned mine, I was that disappointed'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I am the first to admit that I am HORRIBLE at drinking water, so I had to find a solution.\nI’ve always wanted to invest in a hydro flask, but found it too expensive. I’ve purchased water bottles here and there, but it never really kept my water ICE cold and often times it wouldn’t look all that nice to carry around. So when I saw these bottles were half the price of the competitor, I jumped the gun and bought myself the bright orange one in the 40oz! Shipping was super fast through Amazon Prime, and upon arrival, it was packaged nicely. It comes with two caps - a flat cover and straw cap (love this).\n\nThe day I received it, I filled it all the way to the top with ice then added water. After 48 hours, I still had little bits of ice in the bottle and the water was still ice cold!!!\nI did notice though that with the straw cap that it tends to leak a little if you tilt it all the way over. It was nothing serious, but I reached out to customer service and they were unbelievable! They got back to me on the same day, and sent me the tracking number to a new cap the following day. Talk about PREMIUM CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!\n\nExcellent customer service, fast shipping, stylish/lively color, comes with two caps, quality bottle, no sweating, water stays ice cold for DAYS…Not sure what else I can say, and I’m sure the biggest compliment I can give to this company would be to purchase more in the future and recommend them to all my family and friends…which I will certainly do! Thank you for helping me stay hydrated!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "I bought these for the kids returning back to school. They were in need of new water bottles this year and I wanted something that was going to keep their drinks cold and not get condensation all over the place. There are several colors to pick through. Because I was buying 4 at one time, I went through the list and found all the colors that were the cheapest at the time so that I could keep my cost down. So, I ended up buying teal, navy, black, and white. I was also drawn into how many reviews these have and how they are highly rated. I am not disappointed. The kids cups get filled up around 7:15 and when they come home after 4, some of them still have ice in them depending on if they refilled their bottles or not. They do not collect any condensation on the outside so nothing ever gets wet when they carry them around or sit them on their desks. They all came with 2 lids. The one lid unscrews and you can drink it. The other is a straw lid that pops up to drink. I can see how the screw lid holds more of a vacuum, but we use the straw lid every day so we don't have to worry about spilling if they had to unscrew the lid everytime they wanted a drink. I don't think the straw lid causes much of a difference in keeping the liquids inside cold. The cups arrived in a box that was nicely packed and the top of each box had a dot of which color was inside. The cups are nice and heavy. They do not feel cheap at all. The one thing that has happened is that some of the color has chipped a little on a couple of the water bottles. This isn't a huge concern of mine because with kids taking them to school everyday I would expect them to get some wear and tear on them. The color chipping a little isn't ruining the integrity of the water bottle of how it holds up to what it is made for. The other thing is they are not dishwasher safe. I don't know why I thought they were, I must have misread that. Obviously, not a deal breaker because most aren't, but would be convenient to be able to throw them in there. So we hand wash all week and then on the weekends I do a vinegar soak for a deeper clean. I am also pleased with the size. They are big enough to hold a good amount of water without being too big and heavy. I chose to get the 18 ounce ones so when they refill at the water bottle fountain it stops and they have to refill a little bit more into the bottle since a standard water bottle is normally 16 ounces. All in all, I am very happy with this purchase and I think these will be used for many years."}]
