Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Thermos Stainless-Steel 22-Ounce Leak-Proof Hydration Bottle
Customer Review: Good stuff
Summary: 5 Stars
I've owned this bottle for about a month and have had good luck with it so far. I've used it for keeping drinks cold and it works very well. I left a full bottle of water in my truck from 5 in the morning until 4 in the afternoon with the temp about 80.. The water was still cold!! Nice. My only complaint is that the bottle is too big for some holders at the gym and some cars. Outside of that is great..Customer Review: Great Bottle, bigger than expected
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had the thermos for a little over two weeks. I was surprised to find how large it actually is. The bottom is a hard plastic like the top and not soft rubber like I have found with other similar bottles. The top part of the bottle has a big opening for your mouth. I have done some stress testing on the bottle to make sure it was leak proof as I attach it to my backpack daily at school and plan to use it while hiking. The bottom plastic protected the steel shell when dropped multiple times onto rock, cement, pavement, etc. It hit the ground and showed no signs of stress each time. The top of the bottle also hit the ground and showed no signs of stress. With other bottles that I have owned in the past, the top of the bottle would break from a fall. This includes my trusty Nalgenes of which I have owned quite a few.
As for the liquid temperature, I put two cubes of ice in the top and filled it with cold water at about 7am and left it out in the 90 degree heat last week for about 12 hours. When I returned and opened the canister, the ice was still in the bottle! Quite impressed with this result as the canister itself was hot to the touch.
Of very minor complaint is the size of the opening for the clip being to small for a decent size clip for my backpack. This is of minor complaint as attaching one clip to another is an easy and acceptable fix.
Also of note, a lot of people have asked me about the bottle as they wondered what I could be keeping inside. I have tried soft drinks, coffee, energy drinks, water, milk and all of them have kept well. I would not recommend milk though, as even though it stays cold it just feels strange coming out of the thermos.
Cleanup is a breeze as the bottle is steel and does not retain residue very often. I would not recommend using this as a coffee thermos as that is not what it was intended for. It is very clear that it should be used primarily as a cold beverage holder. I did try coffee as noted above and it did stay warm, but again, coffee stains everything so I would stick to the cokes and water that it's used to.
All in all I would recommend this product over the myriad of plastic solutions if you are considering getting a high quality steel container for your summer beverage needs.
Customer Review: Great Hydration Bottle! It helps me stay well hydrated!
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this bottle to replace my smaller 18 oz thermos nissan bottle that I accidentally left somewhere. Since I really liked the 18oz bottle, I thought I'd go with the same brand and style but upgrade to something larger. This product has not dissapointed. It has the same great features as the 18oz version, with some additional upgrades.
What I like:
It's stainless steel! After losing my previous thermos bottle, I had to go back to a plastic nalgene for a while, and man did I notice a difference in the taste of the water. Water tastes SO MUCH BETTER in stainless steel, and so I end up drinking a lot more, which helps me stay much more hydrated.
The flip-top lid, which allows for convenient one-handed drinking.
The generously sized pour spout, which allows me to take large swigs of water without much effort.
The rubbery plastic bottom which prevents scratching the surface you place the bottle on, helps make it more stable, and protects the bottom from being dented when dropped (something I did several times to my 18oz version).
The attached carabiner, which provides something to hang on to when carrying the bottle.
1/2 cup additional capacity (over the 18oz version).
And of course, the sweat-free design and excellent insulation.
What I don't like:
Because of the larger capacity, this bottle is more unwieldy than the 18oz version. In fact, if Thermos hadn't put a carabiner on this bottle, I would have had a difficult time hanging on to it.
Because of the space the insulation takes up, there still isn't near as much room for liquids as in a comparably sized nalgene bottle, and I end up having to make more fill-ups.
Despite these two minor issues, I give this product a hearty two thumbs up, and wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a hydration bottle that keeps their water cold, easily accessible, and tasting fresh for an extended period of time.
Customer Review: Great Item

Does all that is advertised. Keeps water cold for hours and is extremely durable. I am an umpire and use this on the ball fields in the sun. Keeps the water cold as long as you need it. The outside of the bottle has been warm, and the contents are still cold. Worth the money,Customer Review: Great Thermos

I purchased this Thermos based on other reviews and I was not disappointed. I was looking for a thermos that I could take from home to the office. I was trying to quit drinking sodas at work and my poor excuse not to quit was that I didn't have cold water to drink at the office. This thermos eliminated that excuse. If filled with ice, the ice will last 24 hours or more at room temperature and transporting it is not a problem because this thermos doesn't leak. It also has a safety latch on it in case something accidentally pushes the top release button.
The only downside to this thermos is that it doesn't hold much water. However, to keep it as small and well insulated as they did, it probably holds as much as can be expected. I'm able to throw it in my bag on the way to work everyday along with an extra bottle of water to refill my thermos if necessary.
This thermos keeps the water and ice so cold that I usually leave the top open on the thermos because the ice will not melt during the workday. I highly recommend this thermos. FYI, this thermos has helped me to almost completely eliminate sodas from my diet.
