CamelBak Kids Water Bottle Iguanas Reviews Summary

Design & Aesthetics

Pros:

• "I like the different designs. I have ordered the cats, sharks, dinosaurs, and the plain colors."
• "It’s super cute and my daughter enjoys drinking from it."
• "The colors of the bottle are very true to how they appear on Amazon."
• "The unicorn & rainbow decals, which have stayed on remarkably well."
• "First and foremost, I love the design of this water bottle. It's colorful and fun, which immediately caught my kids' attention."
• "The designs are cute and there are so many to choose from."
• "Looks exactly as pictured and my daughter loves having a 'neigh neigh' on her cup."

Cons:

• "The nozzle on this water bottle is very poorly designed."
• "I like the looks of it. As your child drinks from it the top part gets in the way."
• "The mouthpiece on this water bottle slides down, for some odd reason, and will then leak everywhere!"
• "The only downside is the sweat it produces when adding ice or adding something very cold."
• "The part you drink from it is difficult to open and close for a toddler."
• "The rubber spout where the straw goes came out."
• "Very difficult to slide valve lock to closed position because rubberized tubing gets in the way."

Durability & Quality

Pros:

• "The cup and lid are VERY sturdy and we have had our first one for years."
• "No leaks, sturdy, has fallen many times, the art does not scratch off and everything goes straight into the dishwasher."
• "But what really sets this water bottle apart is its durability."
• "These are leak proof and easy to clean."
• "They last a long time and really don't leak!"
• "It's held up like a trooper."
• "The bottle is durable and would last a long time."

Cons:

• "The spouts don't seem to last like they used to unfortunately."
• "It also didn't last very long."
• "This cup didn’t last long with my 18 month old-major issue was it leaking."
• "The older camelback sippy we have is somehow a lot more durable."
• "The rubber piece came out within minutes and my daughter was just drinking normal."
• "Good product while it lasted but not as durable as I thought."
• "These bottles are very difficult to fully clean."

Leak-Proof Feature

Pros:

• "This has been PERFECT! It fits in her backpack side pocket, it never leaks."
• "Definitely recommend this bottle over other top brands of similar size."
• "It truly is leak proof as long as it is put together correctly."
• "As long as you have the mouthpiece correctly in the lid, it will not leak."
• "This DOES NOT as long as you take good care of it."
• "These bite straws are easy to use."
• "It doesn’t leak — a big plus for the parents!"

Cons:

• "Only downside is that if the straw gets pushed in, then it leaks everywhere."
• "So sensitive to pressure change that if left shut when temps change it shoots water when opened and leaks when in a bag."
• "The mouthpiece on this water bottle slides down, for some odd reason, and will then leak everywhere!"
• "This is super cute and my daughter loves it. The issue is that the straw and the suction don’t stay in the lid."
• "If your toddler is anything like mine and tosses his Sippy cups everywhere and bites everything, don’t purchase this cup."
• "The main issue with this cup is that the straw stays filled up so if it gets bumped or say chewed on by a toddler water comes pouring out."
• "Really wanted to like this water bottle but it leaks like crazy if the spout comes out of place at all."

Usability & Maintenance

Pros:

• "All the pieces can be easily cleaned which is HUGE!"
• "Get the set of cleaning brushes with it — you will save so much time washing."
• "The best thing about these cups is that they are so easy to clean."
• "These CamelBak cups are, by far, the BEST!!!! They don't leak, they're super easy to take apart and clean, and they have a convenient handle!"
• "This design can come completely apart to clean."
• "They’re incredibly easy to clean and to keep clean."
• "I love the vibrant colors and that the whole thing can be taken apart and cleaned, even the straw!!!"

Cons:

• "But it did not come with a straw! So it was not easy to drink out of."
• "Now I cannot return it because it was a gift sent to out of the country and in order to get a refund or a replacement I have to fly out of state to get the bottle back or have it shipped to me to return the bottle…how rude and unprofessional."
• "However, the valve is annoying to clean."
• "The threads and ring in the lid need similar very detailed cleaning attention."
• "I also saw wear people said the silicon spout was hard to clean."
• "These are awful!! Those spouts collect mold quickly and it is impossible to get in there to clean them out completely."
• "The reason I feel compelled to write a review is because this is marketed as easy to clean but anything that you need to break apart into three sections and use special tools to clean is not 'easy' imo."

Customer Service & Support

Pros:

• "ETA: I emailed camelbak and explained the issue. They sent free replacement straws and mouth pieces."
• "First one was completely defective and leaked. They sent a new one right away which I thought was professional."
• "My water bottle arrived wet on the inside and the camelbak logo was chipping. It was obviously used. I called customer service and they were able to resolve the issue."
• "Thanks to CamelBaks lifetime guarantee all I have to do is go online and request the parts I need and replacements are sent out to me free of charge."
