Owala Water Bottle Review: Unique Hydration Flask with Sippy Straw

We've purchased two of these for our kids. The option to sip or gulp is great.
The lid lock is awesome BUT NOT fool proof. Sometimes the button does get pressed and stuff gets wet.

Downside: the 32oz doesn't fit in cupholders

First off... yes.
Second off, I have so many of these bottles because I love them so much that I give them as gifts.
Third, they hold up very well for work, travel, and activities. They keep your drinks icy cold for hours and hours. These are perfect for tossing in a bag and they are literally spill proof so it's pretty much the perfect bottle.

10/10 would recommend.

After searching for the perfect water bottle, I'm so glad I picked this one. It's my favorite! The straw and chug spout is perfect. It's such a unique and cool design. It hits every mark. Fits in every space I need it to too!

I have loved this bottle since the moment I received it. This bottle makes you WANT to drink water. It’s so much fun having the choice to sip through a straw or gulp and get ice pieces. I now own 3 bottles! Get one immediately!!!

Leaks VERY bad!

Pro tip - if you're like me, and you like to put carbonated beverages in this (even though they say not to), just take out the straw. If you don't, the carbonation builds up and will spill out the straw hole as soon as you open it.... it creates a vacuum. Simply removing the straw fixes this!

I brought this for a field trip ! But my dad loved it so much 😍I’m gonna order another one 😊 Would definitely recommend!!

Wide mouth makes it easier to insert large chunks of ice. Great capacity.

This is the perfect size for a cup holder, keeps drinks cold forever, and easy to drink from.

Drink only stays cold for a couple hours and also the outside paint scratches off easy.

I love that it’s a straw or you can tip it to drink. Keeps drinks cold. Very leak proof

I will never go hunting for the perfect thermos. This is it. Seriously, do yourself a favor and get one.

I wasn't really looking for a new water bottle, but after a couple of large leaks by my very basic college issued bottle, I wasn't completely indifferent when I came across an article describing the "perfect" water bottle. Unfortunately my very brief search hasn't found the article again so I can't give proper credit to the writer. I did, however, find many reviews reinforcing my opinion, thus I won't go into that because you can find multiple better written reviews. I will say that I didn't understand the "sip" function via the integrated straw. I assumed when I tilted the bottle to "swig" (I'm using the article's own definitions), water would spill via the straw. So I was delighted when I used the small "sip" hole and I got a small amount of water the same as a cup with a large external straw. I have to admit this justified the purchase of the bottle because when in the car or places with restricted headroom, I don't have to turn the bottle over to drink as I did with my other bottle. So that is my take on this bottle, so far it meets expectations.

My emotional support water bottle I take it everywhere I go it keeps your water cold for long period of time especially with ice.

Bottle arrived with a crack in the lid so the straw doesn't work/stay attached. I had to go through several links/pages/forms to apply for a replacement lid and still no response and is now outside of the return window. Great bottle mostly but I am disappointed in the lack of response from Owala. I was going to buy a second one but now will probably get a Yeti or other brand instead.

Would not recommend purchasing.
It came dent on multiple parts of the bottle

I fill this bottle with ice n water before I leave for work. As long as I'm in temperature control, this will keep ice for about 16 hours. Its wonderful. I once left it in car in sun for 8 hours, the ice was melted but the water was still cool.

Looks like a quality product. But wanted it to use on bicycle and it does not fit into a standard bottle cage. If it does, not easily, and would be unsafe to try to put back in while riding. Otherwise, looks great!

I kove Owala bottles and can never find the size I want in stores so I usually have to purchase online. Every single time the Owala bottle comes in dented or scuffed up unfortunately.
It’s a great bottle but the quality control needs to be better.

I love this water bottle. It's very easy to drink from and the quality is very good. The lock could be better secured but overall I love it

I highly recommend this Water Bottle to anyone in need of a reliable and convenient water bottle. It's a great investment that offers fantastic value for its price, and I'm confident that it will continue to serve me well for years to come.

The chug or sip lid is the best. More companies should hop on that train. I just wish they had more colors!

Absolutely LOVE this water bottle! I love that I can sip or drink with or without the straw. SO easy to clean especially if you have the straw cleaners. Fits in my cup holder and keeps things cold (even still has ice) for 8-10 hours!

This hydration flask is unique with its subtle straw that allows one to drink without having to tip flask over (no spills nor dribble glass effect) yet secure snapping shut top cleverly doesnʻt reveal straw spout until open. Metal flask is meant for cold drinks only -no insulation. Well built, well designed. I like being able to drink without tipping flask and losing visibility in front of you..
