New Wave EnviroTinted Stainless Steel Water Bottle (0.6-Liter)

They easily leak at the plastic piece. Can kind of stop it busy pushing it in firmly, but it has to be pushed in firmly every time.

So we bought a couple of these when the company first came out and started making this product. We still have the original two they're just dinged up really bad. The top on the most recent one that I bought is moulded the same way but it doesn't seem to be as sturdy? It opens too far and so it doesn't work the way that it should because it lets in too much air won't holes don't line up between the black part and the clear part so I have to be very careful when opening it and closing it. The problem I had with the original that I had bought was that the o-ring that seals the top spigot to the body base that screws into the canister kept falling up every time I would open it it would get stuck. So I am going to assume that this time around even though the washers look different but it's the same issue or a similar issue. It may also be an improper fit for the two parts. Other than that I really like these bottles and I will continue buying them

I am posting this review only because I believe many of the reviews on here are from competing companies.I have now purchased 4 of these water bottles. The first one I bought I used for over a year with constant daily use. The paint on the bottom did begin to wear off after months of use but nearly none of the paint chipped even as far as an inch up the bottle. The caps on these bottles are amazing. They are convenient, easy to clean and are a true joy to drink from. The only thing I have found that makes them leak is dropping them a lot and a toddler throwing them. If you are careful not to drop it it is completely leak proof. I read a review that said it gives the water a metallic taste - I have never experienced this, and neither has my husband or daughter who also use them daily. I have also used the Klean Kanteen brand bottles and the quality in the actual bottle is undoubtedly equal. The only thing I don't like about Klean Kanteen is their caps, which seem to get dirtier and you actually have to either touch or bite the cap to open it. New Wave Enviro has a little tab on the caps to pull so you don't have to bite or touch the part you actually put your mouth on. It would be well worth it to give these water bottles a try. I think it is reasonable to expect a water bottle to last a year with constant use, especially one that is as great a price as this one.

I've used these bottles for at least five years. My favorite thing is that the spout is recessed into the top when closed; this keeps it as much as possible from being exposed to germs. Plus, you can clean the drinking spout by inserting a Q-tip. No metallic taste. Mine frequently get dropped and if it hits the floor just right, the spout will break. You can buy replacement tops for $2 by googling "New Wave Enviro Flip and Sip Replacement Tops."

I've had this waterbottle for two years and have loved it. I'm a clumsy person and have dropped it on many occasions. My two previous stainless steel waterbottles would dent so majorly and easily that I couldn't use them anymore. This one had withstood the many times I had dropped it... Finally, I managed to drop it from high enough that it got a big enough dent that I figured I should get a new one. It was still fully functional...no holes, no leaking...just figured for aesthetics a new one would be nice. I love that it is sturdy. The plain silver has no paint, so no complaints of chipping. The mouth is nice and wide, but I usually use the spout, which I love. And it has a loop if you want to hook it to a bag. I know there are lots of brands to choose from and lots of price ranges, but as long as this bottle is of this quality, I will continue to purchase and promote it...although hopefully I'll not be so clumsy in the future.

I purchased the item at the beginning of April 2009. It works just fine for the purpose that I intended it for, which was to hold water.I didn't need the hiking clip on the lid, so I took it off.I first noticed the wear on the item about 2 weeks after using it. The color on the bottom started chipping away. When I first washed it, I washed it by hand. The second time I washed it I put it in the dishwasher. Big mistake! I should have known better, but I wanted to sterilize it. That is when the color started chipping away in bigger chunks and it wasn't just at the bottom, but along the top.Needless to say, the item still works, but cosmetically it is ruined and I don't want to be seen in public with it. Also, I've only used it for water and it gets a slight metal taste after a while.I should have listened to the other reviewers, but I wanted to try it for myself. I will be shopping for a better product in the next couple of days. Hope this helps.

I have the old 1 liter bottles and I got this to see if the top would fit on it because I really want to keep it and since I cant by the lid/cap by them selves this works perfect

I like the size of this bottle and that it keeps our drinks cold. You can freeze it for a little bit before you go out, too. The hole is too small to fit ice cubes in easily. I have to push each one through by running water over it at the same time. The cap is a PAIN, especially at the gym when you're really thirsty. It's hard to twist the cap on and off while you're on a treadmill or elliptical machine. At least the water is safe and you're not drinking out of a plastic bottle. This is much healthier for you and of course, we use filtered water in ours.

There was no straw included in the package and ordinary straws do not fit.

Great water bottle

Works great

Not the greatest bottle. The spout did not flow well, always had to unscrew to lid to drink.
