OwalaFreeSip Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle with Straw for Sports and Travel, Leak Proof, BPA-Free, 710ml, Summer Sweetness

The Owala FreeSip Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle is hands down one of the best water bottles I've used, and here’s why it’s become a must-have in my daily routine:What I Loved:Innovative FreeSip Spout: The standout feature of this water bottle is the FreeSip spout, which gives you two drinking options. You can either sip through the built-in straw or tilt it back to gulp. It’s incredibly convenient whether you’re on the go or need a quick drink during a workout. Having both options in one bottle is a game-changer!Great Insulation: This bottle keeps my drinks cold for hours. Thanks to the double-wall, vacuum-insulated stainless steel, my water stays ice cold for up to 24 hours, and I’ve even tested it with ice cubes that lasted all day. It’s also great for keeping hot beverages warm for several hours, which makes it super versatile.Leak-Proof Design: I can toss the Owala in my bag without worrying about leaks. The flip-top lid seals securely, so I never have to deal with any spills or messes, even when it’s full. The lock feature adds an extra layer of security, which I appreciate.Ergonomic Carry Handle: The built-in carry loop is comfortable and makes it easy to grab the bottle when I’m heading out the door or to the gym. It’s sturdy and practical, especially when your hands are full.Easy to Clean: Both the lid and straw come apart for easy cleaning, which is a big bonus. I love that I can take everything apart and thoroughly clean it without worrying about lingering bacteria or residue. Plus, it’s dishwasher safe!Durable and Stylish: The stainless steel build feels incredibly sturdy, and the powder-coated exterior makes it resistant to scratches and dents. The wide range of vibrant colors is another bonus—I picked a bold shade, and it looks fantastic!What Could Be Improved:Straw Size: While the straw option is convenient, it’s a bit on the narrow side, which makes drinking thicker beverages like smoothies a bit slower. It works perfectly for water, though!Size Variety: I’d love to see an even larger version for those super-long days or hikes when I need extra hydration. The current sizes (19 oz, 24 oz, 32 oz) are great, but a bigger option would be ideal for all-day hydration.Final Thoughts:The Owala FreeSip Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle is an exceptional bottle that’s as functional as it is stylish. The combination of the innovative FreeSip spout, excellent insulation, and leak-proof design make it perfect for any lifestyle, from casual use to workouts. Whether you’re a fan of sipping or gulping, this bottle offers both options, making hydration super convenient and enjoyable. Highly recommend it!

Great water bottle good value for money and it is actually leak proof not just says it is. It is a decent size bigger than I thought but not ridiculous oversize and love the different shades of colour in the one bottle. I love the straw and sip fundtion the straw works better than most bottles I have had bc of the big air hole and the sip means you can drink more quickly without taking the lid off.

Really happy with this bottle. Loving the double way of drinking, I’m particularly loving the sucking (stop it you), and has increased my water intake. Good size bottle and the liquid stays cold for long time. Easy to clean, the straw easily removes and can then be cleaned with a straw cleaner. Sleek design with a nice grip. I was sceptical paying this much for a water bottle but I think it’s definitely worth it.

Perfect bottle, looks good sleek design and nice colour. Easy to drink from with the two drinking options. I have accidentally dropped it and it’s still perfect so very durable, great size happy with the amount I paid, good value

This is an excellent water bottle that insulates your drink well and is pleasing to use. It is relatively easy to clean and you can put the lid into the dishwasher. You can also buy other parts and swap colours around or buy replacement parts fairly easily from the Owala website.It is recommended that you only drink water from it though if you are willing to risk damaging the bottle you could put other drinks in.I rate this 4 stars though as I had another bottle where the lid broke and I was unimpressed with Owala's customer service.

Great water bottle, doesn’t leak. I recommend this to people who need a water bottle that fits in their average sized back pack and sideways in a tote. Easy to clean, keeps my water cold, I drink more water lol

Really good bottle easy to clean, love the colour combo and the in built straw. Great value for money.

When my son put 'Owala water bottle' on his christmas list & i saw they were £30-£40 I thought 'what is this lunacy! It's a water bottle!' ... and here I am to ... drink my wordsHe didn't get one for christmas but, I spotted this one on amazon for £22 (at that time) & hit buy now.As it turned out, I bought the mid size & he really wanted the larger so I was all set to send this one back but, he was grateful & said it was fine.He wanted me to try drinking from it so I'd appreciate what all the hype was and well... dear readers, I didn't give that bottle back.Instead, I ordered him the bigger one and kept this one for myself.The spout is beautifully shaped in a way that's much more natural to drink from than any other I've seen.The sip element is far superior because there's no tiny air hole (which facilitates leaks in other bottles) which means you have to really suck on the straw. With Owala, water glides up with gentle force because your air hole is the big plug spout.I've washed the straws and lids in the dishwasher multiple times and they are fine.I've only handwashed the actual bottles because they take up a lot of room in my already packed dishwasher but, they feel like they'd probably withstand it as the paint feels sort of rubberised - not like a thin layer that will peel off as on other cheaper bottles.The lid lock also doubles as a carry handle and the whole thing feels sturdy and durable and it lives up to all the hype!I've never drank so much water since getting this bottle.My one and only complaint is that I'd love to buy spare/extra lids, straws and the silicone boots directly from the Owala website but, £18 in p&p and added taxes from USA is a LOT!
