TRIPLE TREE 34 OZ Uninsulated Single Walled Stainless Steel Sports Water Bottle 18/8 Food Grade for Cyclists, Runners, Hikers, Beach Goers, Picnics, Camping - BPA Free

Concerning the 'TRIPLE TREE 34 OZ Uninsulated Single Walled Stainless Steel Sports Water Bottle 18/8 Food Grade', only, the item I received is exactly as advertised, but that it doesn't weigh 8.5 oz, rather being 6.97 oz, or 7.18 oz with the included carabiner. The Amazon spec's say it's '18/8 Food Grade stainless steel', yet etched on the outside, under the TRIPLE TREE brand name, it says '304 stainless steel'. For what it's worth, I have no idea if they are the same thing by a different name or not, but just to say, it's described by two different names, in case that matters to someone. The carabiner is a freebie, and as such, it's clearly not stainless steel, but perhaps aluminum or something similar,. It is solid tho, with the spring snap lock sufficiently stiff so as to avoid most accidental releases, but easy enough to move intentionally. It's surprisingly good quality, and for a throw-in, a nice touch. Also a nice, is that the 'C' wire handle that the carabiner clips to, is of course SSteel and swivels left to right, yet requires enough force applied to do so, that it won't move on it's own, keeping any rattling at bay. Sweet, and totally unexpected. The cover screws on smoothly and tight, with a removable silicone gasket sealing the deal waterproof, and as well, a spare one in the kit. Apparently, the insulated version of this is only $1 more, and if all is equal to what I've got quality-wise, I would be very happy. Also, at 34 oz, it holds 1 liter, being 2 oz over a quart, also being very convenient. For as light as it is, it is solid and would take quite a hit to put a dent in it.

BEST WATER BOTTLE EVER, FINALLY. I have bought SO many water bottles, returned so many, and had so many malfunction or have their lids break. It seems like each one has different issues. This water bottle has the best design because it's so SIMPLE—and that’s the key with water bottle design, I’ve found. It also has the least plastic parts of any bottle out there. There’s only a small but easy-to-replace seal, and even the design of that is really, really good compared to others that easily collect and grow mold. I’m not sure if the seal is silicone, but I hope so—that would probably be ideal. They even send an extra replacement seal, which is a big deal in case the original one ever gets mold embedded in it (which can happen sometimes no matter how careful you are). That kind of detail just shows they actually thought things through. It’s also so light, even though it has insulation that actually keeps my water cold for 24 hours, easy. That’s a big deal, as most insulation makes bottles significantly heavier. The handle and lid are completely stainless steel, which is a huge deal because plastic lids just aren’t good. I’ve always found the screw-on cap to be the most foolproof, and the seal design is so good it never leaks if you screw it properly. The threads on the bottle are also really well designed—wide and easy to screw on properly. I really just want them to keep making larger sizes of these containers—all the way up to a half gallon, a gallon, even a 5-gallon version for trips. I also hope they innovate with square or rectangular fully stainless steel bottles to take in the car, to prevent them from rolling around and to improve packing efficiency, while keeping their 100% stainless steel ethos down to the carrying arm or handle. Good job with the matte finish on the exterior too—it keeps it from slipping from your hand. I honestly can’t say how grateful I am to have finally found the perfect water bottle... minus the fact that they don’t sell larger sizes for long whole-day hikes or car and camping trips.

I love this bottle! it's a great size yet not too heavy even when full of ice and water. Keeps water and ice cold for a very long time maybe longer than they say lol and I have never had it leak like another review stated and I've used it daily for a month or longer. I have accidentally dropped it once on concrete and a couple other small ones but it barely dented on the concrete and still works great! Which I bought another one from a brand name that lost its insulation after a drop. So I'm very happy with this purchase and it's a great price as well!

Good all around nearly total stainless water container. However, I don't think the vacuum seal is there. These usually have a glue on button covering the bottom, as this does, but I think there may be a vacuum leak there. It doesn't really maintain tap cold or ice cold when I put ice in it. I have a stainless vacuum mug bought here on Amazon, with a plastic lid and a seal at the bottom that really does a good job of maintaining temps even in a car parked in the sun. This doesn't, but for the price, it is a decent nearly 100% (silicone gasket, and a spare, that's nice) stainless water jug for my short hikes.

Its sleek. its big, but not bulky. It keeps my things cold, i havent had any issues with it warming up too fast. Even in the sauna; its a tank. I think its decently priced and i would totally get one for my girlfriend. I take this thing everywhere. and there is a neat lil handle on the top of the cap thats really useful sometimes.

Simple and functional. I am using these to get away from bottled water in plastic bottles. After tons of research, single layer stainless is the best option. These bottles are inexpensive and work great. I wish the mouth was a bit smaller but that's my only gripe. Can the threads cross a touch and bind up on rare occasion? yeah but it'll still unscrew with a little effort and no damage done. Can the cap get a little water in it from where the handle enters? yeah maybe, if you soak them under water. The bottles are sturdy, don't leak (unless you have the cap loose), and function just fine. I bought 5 and will be buying more. I have used all 5 multiple times a day. If only they were usa made, but that's a story for another day. Solid product, get you equally solid water purification and you are sorted.

As promised, my new water bottle arrived on time, wrapped in plastic and packed inside a professional brand name cardboard container. I took it along on a hike today, and it perfectly meets my needs, providing 34 fluid ounces of clean, fresh water from a 304 stainless steel bottle. An extra gasket was provided with the bottle. For the price, or really for any price, this appears to be a very functional, professionally built product.

I bought two of these 1L bottles because I liked that they were plastic-free and I'm trying to avoid microplastics. I liked that they're 1L (most bottles are too small) and looked reasonably dishwasher-safe. NO. Bad idea. The first time I filled one of these bottles, the lid cross-threaded, and it became VERY hard to open. It took me over 2 hours, using tools and all my body weight, to get it open. Weird, I thought. Maybe that was a fluke. So I kept using them. They worked fine for a few hikes, and then it happened again. When I filled the bottle, I made absolutely sure the lid was not cross-threaded because I was afraid of this, and then when I went to open it it somehow cross-threaded itself and became immovably stuck. No amount of levers and vice grips get this thing open. On the hike, I was opening it carefully, because I was specifically afraid of this happening. I used only a TINY amount of force to try to open it, and somehow it froze itself and no worldly amount of force will open it. These bottles will fail you when you need them most. Avoid. If one of your friends has one of these bottles, I want you to yell angrily at them until they swap it out. These bottles are worse than useless, they make you think they'll work so you start to trust them, and then they fail. They hold your water in a way you cannot access it no matter what you do.
