Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Note that this review is a "first impression" as I only received this bottle today.
I own several Stainless Steel insulated bottles and I find the quality of this bottle to be disappointing. There isn't really anything terribly wrong, it just doesn't have the solid, sturdy "feel" of the other bottles I own (Thinksport, Thermos, Eco Vessel). Time will tell, I suppose, since I haven't owned it long enough to torture test it.
Size is larger than indicated on Amazon's specs (surprising, since they usually list shipping dimensions and product is usually smaller). Bottle is actually 3" at its widest point (height is correct @ 10"). The description says it's 17oz. Paper that came with it says 20oz. Measuring cup I emptied it into said 500ml (16.9oz filled to the top of the spout), so capacity is less than stated.
All in all it's a good bottle, but not great. Metal parts appear high quality. Plastic parts look and feel cheap. The spout you drink from has rough edges and the larger cap material is quite thin. I haven't "drop tested" it yet, but I would not expect it to hold up to the kind of abuse my poor Thinksport bottle has been subjected to (and survived). In addition it seems a bit large for its capacity, it will have trouble fitting in all but the largest cup holders (fits in my Mazda, but not in my friend's Toyota).
Documentation also warns that this bottle is for use with room temperature or cold beverages only. "DO NOT fill with hot liquids!"
Bottle is NOT dishwasher safe, either.
So would I recommend this product? I suppose if you are a fan of Laptop Lunches products you will find this bottle satisfactory. If you are looking for a better insulated stainless steel bottle I would check out the products from Thinksport, Eco Vessel or Thermos.

Great for cold drinks. Condensation does not form on the outside of this double-walled water bottle, even though the contents remain much cooler than the temperature outside. This durable stainless steel drink bottle features a tapered design that makes it comfortable to hold and opens in two places for easy cleaning. It comes with a removable inner gasket and can hold 17 -ounce (2 1/8 cups, 475 ml).
