TakeyaSport Triple Wall Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle With Spout Lid, 22 Ounce, Pro Fire

This is a great water bottle. It has a good handle. The way smakker cap screws on is very innovative. I like that you can remove the whole top for easy cleaning. The feel of the bottle is just slightly rough for easy holding. I knocked a star off because the silicone seal has a crease in it from not being properly seated before it was screwed on ,I assume when manufactered. It is not enough to cause a leak though. I still think this is a good product and would expect that was a fluke.

I love the size of this bottle. It's skinny enough to fit in all my cup holders (even with the bumper on, but it does occasionally pull off in my husband's truck), but wide enough that it does tip over easily (like my Stanley one does). It holds a good amount of water. It comes with a rubber bumper (where other brands make you buy it separately). The spout cap is not my favorite (but my son prefers it, and I think it is better for sports... i.e. drinking quickly), but you can order a straw lid for it separately. At least it has an ice catcher to keep the ice from sliding down your throat and splashing the water out too quickly. I can easly fit two ice cubes in the top at a time (nice wide mouth).I decided to test the insulation of this bottle against an uninsulated plastic bottle (left) and a 30 oz Stanley Iceflow (right, $35). I loaded each bottle with 1.5 cups of tap water and 8 ice cubes. After 3 hours, the uninsulated bottle was already at room temperature (72°F). The Takeya was at 40°F (ice probably hadn't cooled the water completely yet), and the Stanley was at 35°F. After 12 hours, the Takeya was down to 37°F and the Stanley was starting to warm (43°F). At the 24-hour mark, the Takeya bottle was still cold (36°F) and the Stanley bottle was still warming (56°). After 30 hours, the Takeya bottle was still reasonably cold (46°F)! Very impressive cold-keeping performance for $30 (at time of review).
