Design and Usability

Pros:

  • "Not only is it beautiful, with its gorgeous interplay of vivid colors, but it WORKS."
  • "I love the two different options to drink; with straw or through the spout."
  • "It has a smooth, empty surface perfect for stickers."
  • "Super easy to clean, no leaking, and fits in most cup holders."
  • "Great design to keep it sanitary and leak-free."
  • "The straw and sip spout combo are superb!"
  • "Best tumbler, can sip or chug."

Cons:

  • "The bottom that flips the cap open to drink is pretty stiff and hard to press if you aren't hitting it at the perfect angle."
  • "The lid part that has a rubbery/siliconeish material that has gotten super filthy."
  • "This one feels much more hollow and less thick, resulting in shorter cold retention."
  • "The major complaint I have is that if you use the water bottle while you’re wearing lipstick it is so difficult to get all of the mouthpiece clean."
  • "The push button from the very beginning kept coming off."
  • "The handle and lid fall off almost every day and causes my son to spill his water regularly."
  • "The fact that they can't even send a new lid is poor customer service."

Quality and Durability

Pros:

  • "It's durable, truly leak-proof, and aesthetically pleasing."
  • "It doesn’t leak and I can just toss it in my backpack."
  • "It's so easy to drink from, because of the built in straw, super simple to clean and overall worth every penny!!"
  • "Must have bottle for little ones. Doesn't spill, is easy to clean."
  • "It doesn’t leak, keeps the water cold, and the shape makes it easy to grip."
  • "The contoured sides and the combo straw/sip mouth piece make all the difference in the world."
  • "It’s comfortable to hold and drink from. Sip or gulp either is an amazing experience."

Cons:

  • "I haven’t ever dropped it and the cap broke, I tried to put it back together but I couldn’t do it."
  • "The button spring broke after a months of use but it’s probably because I used it a lot."
  • "For some reason, both bottles came with little blemishes of a stain?"
  • "I've had this bottle for under a year and the handle snapped off."
  • "The interior of this particular Owala is peeling/rusting."
  • "Purchased this only a few months ago, and it is already leaking, can’t take a sip without water spilling everywhere."
  • "It came with a small dent on the bottom which I decided was no big deal but then it took one short tumble to the ground and ended up with a huge dent in it."

Functionality and Convenience

Pros:

  • "The Owala ACTUALLY keeps water cold, whether it’s been sitting on my bedside table all night or if I leave it in the hot car."
  • "I love the color scheme, the handle, the straw and open spout components, just EVERYTHING."
  • "I'm glad I got the 40 oz size."
  • "Love that there’s a straw so it works from any angle, the locking lid so it can stay closed in my bag, and it keeps ice in there for 24 hours or more."
  • "It fits in my cup holder and is not too big to throw in my bag for work."
  • "The straw/sip lid is absolutely genius."
  • "This bottle stays odor free and sanitary because your mouth never touches the rim where the cap seals."

Cons:

  • "It's big and doesn't fit in cup holders but that's not important to me."
  • "I ordered the 40oz and it does not fit in the cup holders of my car or my bf’s car."
  • "The only problem with the 40oz is that it does not fit the standard cup holder."
  • "This bottle does not fit in any of my vehicles cup holders which is unfortunate."
  • "I cannot hold or even pick up this Owala water bottle."
  • "It hard to get stain off my white Owala bottle."
  • "However, the next week I try to open the lid and I find that it flung up and broke."
