Design and Material
Pros:
"The matte finish of the material makes for a secure grip."
"Really like this bottle and it reminds me to drink more, the perfect size and easy to hold."
"The designers did a great job solving common problems with most water bottles."
"The bottle is simple and easy to use, with one handed opening, and a good size drinking spout."
"It is very EASY to drink out of!"
"I love all of the measures on it and if you have drank enough water for the day."
"This bottle is GREAT!!"
Cons:
"However, I'm not 100% sure on the lids durability."
"The measurements where also very faded and hard to read."
"The units on the side are in freedumb units only. Would have been nice to also have metric as well as the oz."
"The writing on the bottle is so faint you can barely read it."
"Very disappointing that their leading people for 2 but its only 1."
"The photo shows TWO bottles, but the default price is for ONE."
"After washing, I noticed that there are spots around the bottle where the color has faded."
Functionality and Usability
Pros:
"It was easy to clean, and it fit in our car cup holders."
"Comes with a fold up cleaning sponge. Great in dishwasher."
"The locking top is a nice feature as well as the strap for carrying."
"Being 500ml (so smaller than the typical, used at home, 1l size) makes this ideal for carrying when out and about."
"Definitely recommend it."
"It’s good about not leaking."
"The bottle is nicely made."
Cons:
"The hole is too big. When I drink, I always have water that fall on me because the air hole is big like 4mm diameter."
"First, within a couple of weeks, I had the water bottle in a gym bag fully locked, but when I pulled it out, the bag was full of water."
"This bottle doesn’t fit in my car cup holder and the loop for carrying it is made of fabric, which is a bit weird when it comes to washing it."
"However, when hand-washing my bottle a few days ago, I realized only recently that I managed to lose one of the rubber 'bumpers' on the lid that makes the bottle leakproof."
"When I shake it (pre & post workout powder added) or leave it in my bag, it leaks everywhere."
"Now it's in the trash can. Don't waste any money on this one."
"I am disappointed that only after a few months of having the water bottle, I need to buy a new one."
Customer Service and Support
Pros:
"This seller is amazing. I posted this review and I managed to fix the catch with a tweezer so it works again."
"Even though the mistake was mine, they sent me another bottle! Now that’s good customer support!"
"I contacted the company to see if I could buy another cap, and they sent me a new bottle for free!"
"Good customer service as their response was quick and efficient to deal with the issue."
"And the seller reached out the same delivery day asking if I received everything in the package, which was really sweet of them considering most businesses and small businesses don’t do that."
"Update.I am adding a star. The seller contacted me after reading my review about the leak. They have offered a refund for this item."
"I contacted the seller and they were quick to help with a solution to resolve the issues."
Cons:
"Beside this you can reach ECENJOY DIRECT only over the ‘Seller messaging assistant’ and there is no possibility to chat about warranty/claims."
"However, I got a bottle with major defects. It leaks through the top little air hole when it’s closed."
"However, even after 3 to 4 washes with hot water, soap, and baking soda, nothing seems to be able to remove the chemical/plastic taste that the bottle leaks into the water."
"The breathe hole to allow the water to be sucked through the mouthpiece doesn’t have any suction on the hole."
"It's kind of leaky, but that wasn't a problem for me, because I used it while exercising at home."
"Seems very poor Quality Assurance."
"Quality is bad. The lettering is extremely faded and it has marks and smudges all over it looks like it's used."
