 Ice cubes the next day, yeah! Aug 06, 2006
By Jeep Girl
I bought this water bottle to keep my water cold and after trying many other drinkers, I saw this Hydration Bottle by Thermos. I was looking for a drinker or bottle that had a CHUG style opening, no baby rubber straws that flip up, or inside straws that fall off when you add ice, I wanted something that would give me water on the spot and was easy to load with regular sized ice cubes without cramming them down with the pick action of a spoon handle. I also wanted something sturdy, a bottle that could withstand a direct drop onto a concrete driveway when my water bottle falls off the floor of my truck and out onto the concrete. First, let me tell you...this gem keeps your water freezing cold more than a day long! I still have ice cubes the next day! Also, this awesome water bottle holds enough water to satisfy me much longer than those wimpy kindergarten 12 ouncers. I don't like to run out of water, I live in the desert! The bottom has a rubberized base to eliminate scooting and also offer some protection from drops. Also, it's completely spill, drip, and leak proof, absolutely! The super cool push button flip open lid gives you instant clearance to chug a gulp of water, this is particularly nice when you're driving and you don't have an extra hand! The surface of this hydration bottle stays condensation free, no wet hands! I fill this every morning and don't leave home without it, I like having water with me all the time but am picky about quality water, so I take my filtered water, no thanks Aquafina bottle water, I'll bottle my own for free. I love this product, If it ever breaks, I'll buy this same one again!
A NOTE: This hydration bottle would be perfect for carrying baby formula in, especially if you're traveling, on vacation, on a plane trip, going to be away from home all day. Your formula would be plenty warm and ready to fill more than one bottle. The hydration bottle would relieve your worry of spoiling your formula or needing to find hot water quickly somewhere to mix your formula! I wish I'd had this when I was a new mom!
RECOMMENDED
Another note: 2 years later, the latch on the pop up screw on cap broke, and the Coleman product support doesn't carry replacement caps for this model anymore. They do offer a new model of this same Hydration bottle, called E2 I believe, same great features, and best yet, fits into most standard auto cup holders!!!! The older model did not.

Surprising Jan 19, 2007
By W. Grasmeder
I bought this bottle after reading a review that claimed it kept ice for 24 hours. My girlfriend unwrapped the box on Christmas day, and filled it that afternoon. It had ice still 2 days later. Sturdy, effective, and comfortable to drink from.
I'm going to buy myself one too.

Great Item May 31, 2007
By David E. Schopf
"Skippy"
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,

WARNING: No replacement parts Feb 18, 2008
By R. Norton
No replacement gaskets are available for this item from Thermos. If you lose the gasket that seals the lid to the bottle (it will disconnect if you drop the lid) you will own a rather expensive very leaky water bottle.
Edited on 11/26/2008. I lied! If you call Thermos they will send you replacement gaskets free of charge. I couldn't find the parts on the internet when I wrote the original review. Sorry about that Thermos people. I up my rating to 5 stars.
Edited on 01/25/2012. I updated this to five stars to match my actual opinion and to unskew the average review rating. I'm still using this daily after all this time. Oddly enough, I found my original "lost" gasket. It was under the stove. Yeah, I know, I'm a lousy housekeeper.

Easy to use and it works! Sep 05, 2007
By Tom D
The hot's hot, the cold's cold AND it doesn't leak, even if you knock it over.
Perfect coffee container for the car; the flip lid latches solidly and easily, and opens effortlessly. If it falls over, it doesn't leak at all.
The top opens wide enough for ice cubes and easy cleaning too.
