 Awesome bottle! July 24, 2008

I was looking for a hybrid between a Sigg water bottle and a Camelbak. Like the straw mechanism on the Camelbak, but liked all the aspect of the Sigg metal ones--except I don't care for non-attached caps or sports tops. This was a great compromise.
I only plan to use this for water, but I should note that the tag says not hot beverages or dairy products. Would not recommend this for coffee, then, even iced.
It really does seem to keep the cold water colder and there is no metallic taste.
I think the clip on the top looks pretty non-durable, and it might rust in the dishwasher. Everything else feels tip-top solid.
Love these! September 10, 2008

This bottle is perfect!
It is really dishwasher safe...I gave up on my Sigg bottles because I can't stand to wash things by hand.
It fits in my car cup holder.
You don't have to touch the nozzle to flip the straw up...which is really nice if you are out in the woods with dirty hands.
Plus the designs are really cute.
Just what I was looking for.... September 24, 2008

I was looking for a BPA free water bottle with a leak proof straw that would hold a lot of water but also fit into the cupholder in my car. I also wanted something that was easy to fill and dishwasher safe (in other words, not a Sigg). I couldn't decide between the Nathan stainless steel flip straw and the Camelbak "better" bottle so I got one of each -- the Camelbak is already in the recycling bin because I hate that you have to bite down on the straw. I am ordering a couple more of the Nathan flip straw bottle's because it fulfills everything on my checklist plus the flip straw mechanism lets you push the straw up and down without touching it. My only wish is that they made it in a 1L.
Great Bottle! January 1, 2009

Bought 1 for myself & my family kept borrowing it, so I ended up buying 3 more. I'm a water snob & was worried about a metal-taste, but no problem with that at all. I've had mine for about a month now & have had no leaking problems either. I take it with me everywhere I go & am glad to being doing something positive for our environment!
3/6/2009 UPDATE:
Unfortunately my bottle has started leaking & spitting water too. Here's what the Nathan website FAQ states:
Q: Why does my bottle squirt water sometimes upon
opening?
A: To ensure our bottles are leak-proof, we have placed a seal
on the bottle that is tight, sometimes causing pressure to build
in the bottle. To release the pressure, tilt up the Flip Straw
slightly, and then fully extend the straw and drink.
Q: Why does my bottle seem to leak from the hole near
the finger loop?
A: If you close the Flip Straw too quickly after drinking, the
water in the nozzle area that hasn't had the chance to retreat
down will secrete out the hole in the straw. To avoid this, wait
a couple of seconds after taking a sip before closing the straw
to allow time for the water to retreat back down the straw.
Hope this helps!

I have been switching my drinking bottles to stainless and have different problems, like what a pain to screw off a cap while driving, hard to clean pop tops, and do you really want to tilt your head back to drink while driving.. Well these great little bottle answers all these problems. Just fill lift straw and drink, no cap to unscrew, easy to clean, and no need to tilt head back. I love it and plan to buy a few more...
