Takeya Actives Insulated Water Bottle w/Spout Lid, Bluestone, 24 Ounce

I have a bigger Takeya Actives bottle but wanted a smaller one for short walks and saw this one on sale. I love the size - easier to carry around with it's attached handle and easy to drink from with it's wide mouth. It has a screw top which I prefer so I know it's locked down. It unscrews easy, but it's not instant, if that's what you are looking for.In hot weather -- say 85+ ice will melt over a few hours. Specific time will depend on how much ice you start with - more takes longer, of course. This is a bit disappointing to me, and why I didn't give it 5 stars. To be fair I've never tried other "top name" brand bottles to be able to compare. At room temp, though, ice will stay frozen for a day. More importantly, water always stays cold for a day as advertised.This bottle does not sweat and, as with all Actives line bottles, it has a sweat-proof lid too, which makes it great for hot and cold beverages, though I don't use mine for hot beverages. It's strictly water. However, it is dishwasher safe, and I've washed it a few times with no fading or flaking. I do not know if the top is dishwasher safe, but I don't put it in to keep the steam heat off the rubber seals.I have the Cobalt color, which doesn't match the online photo which looks bolder. In real life mine was a bit paler, not as good looking to be honest. Ultimately, it's just a water bottle and it was a good price so I did not return it just because of the inexact color presentation. But if you only want the Cobalt color pictured then find another color because you won't get that color based on my own experience.

I've only tried a couple other styles (other companies' products), but in comparison, this Takeya water bottle is much better for my needs -- solid construction, very sturdy (doesn't fall over easily), attractive, and holds cold water temp very well. (Haven't tried it with hot liquids yet.) I also like the design of the cap-and-spout mechanism, it's both easy to use and to clean. And the cap being attached and able to 'snap' out of the way is an excellent feature. I got the 22 ounce bottle -- curious why it wasn't made to be an even 24 ounces (ie.., the amount of 3 glasses of water), but that's a small matter. I like this bottle very much!

Muy bueno. Mantiene el agua fría por horas

So glad that this turned out to be as good as the manufacturer claims. It keeps my water ice cold. I accidentally left it at a doctor’s office, and made a 40 mile round trip to reclaim it!

Yes, after trying numerous other water bottles, I've found "THE" one, this one! It does everything it is suppose to do and doesn't do what it's not suppose to do - leak! It is so easy to drink from, easy to clean(hand wash), maintains the temperature of the liquid and feels good to hold. I like it!
