Best water bottle I have ever used.
I bought a couple of these when I found them on sale at a local retailer. Love that you don’t have to open and close them when riding. They keep the water cold for quite a while, definitely worth getting the chill version of these bottles!

Insulated, of course, and plastic
Insulated, of course, and plastic I filled it with ice and water and went on a long bicycle ride. The condensation that formed on the outside had me nearly dropping it while trying to drink while riding. Water warmed quickly. Not much better than the cheaper priced plastic bottles selling at the bicycle shops.

The lock is too skinny
The lock is too skinny and hard to turn. I prefer the older fatter lock.
Too early to judge quality and durability. I have only used it twice.

I’ve had the previous version of this bottle for many years and they still work but a bit tired. This new one was improved just enough and still retains all the great features.

Had my previous Camelbak bottle for almost a decade. I immediately replaced it when I lost it on a trip. This is the only sports bottle brand I trust and use daily!

The total functionality of the bottle is great. The cap is easier to drink from compared to the older bottles.

a bit of sandpaper should help with this.

The twist top on both
The twist top on both bottles is so tight, it unscrews when you turn it. I didn't use either of them on the metric century ride I did last weekend, which is why i made the purchase. Very disappointed

Hard size to find, to fit my old Mazda Miata custom center console. Most others are too large to fit. Delivery was quick, I thought the price was right, non-spill cap open or closed is a great feature. Even like the color!

Podium Chill
Have both 21oz and 24oz bottles. Unimpressed with the ability to keep liquid sufficiently cold, even when ice is included. My ten year old bottles did a much better job.

I love this bottle. It’s lightweight and fits perfectly in my purse for daily use as well. The leak-proof top keeps water from coming out even when it turns upside down which is a great feature.
