Review on 🚰 Mizu V8 Water Bottle - 26 oz Stainless Steel Double Wall Vacuum Insulated - Narrow Mouth, Leak Proof Cap - Multiple Color Options - BPA Free by David Burns

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Big bottle of water. Keeps drinks cooler than most bottles

I have several of these vacuum flasks for hot and cold drinks. Everyone stepped into the background. I use this every day to keep drinks cold so I don't have to go back to the fridge when I want something. I can fill it up in the morning with water, juice, coolant or whatever, and even without ice (I have a mini fridge which I almost freeze for the drinks I use to keep them nice and cold), it will hold up it keeps the cold drink cold until the next morning when I'm ready to wash and refill it. It has a powdery white finish which I was afraid would get dirty after a while, but anything on it washes off instantly without leaving stains or stains and is as white as the day it arrived. The size fits me too. Many bottles are larger and have a larger diameter, making them difficult to hold comfortably with one hand. I don't need a 40+ oz vacuum flask and the 26 oz lasts all day and isn't so small that you have to refill it often. And it's not so wide that I have to drink from it with both hands like a child. It's not the best prospect for a grown man. My only problem with it is the lid. It comes with a lid and needs to be screwed on and off every time you want to take a sip. It's not that it's harsh, but it creates a metal-on-metal grind. If this bottle had a non-drip pop-up cap that would be a 5 star plus. The product description states that the inner wall, used to insulate and keep drinks hot or cold, is coated with a thin layer of copper that keeps drinks hotter or colder than bottles that don't. It's something you can't really see, but compared to other vacuum flasks I have, this seems to keep my cold drinks colder and hours longer. I don't recall any of the others saying anything about copper plumbing or insulated walls inside. This bottle holds 26 ounces and retails for $35.95 (at the time of this review) and is about $10-$15 more than I typically pay for a bottle like this. But if you're like me and like your drinks on the almost frozen hard side of the cold, and you use a vacuum flask day and night instead of running to the fridge every time you want a drink, then spending a few bucks more is well worth Togo . That. I literally use this all day and night, top up once in the morning (unless of course if I don't drink it dry) and the drinks are still cold the next morning and the amazing thing is I don't once I use the lid, I just fill it up and stick a straw in so I don't have to unscrew the lid every time I want to take a sip. Even without the lid, the drinks in it are still cold enough for me and stay that way for a good 20 hours or so. Although this bottle is slightly more expensive, it is still worth every penny. My only reason for a 4 star rating was my lid issue. The lid works as it should, only I would prefer one that had something flipped or pulled out without having to unscrew and remove it each time. Otherwise perfect and worth the money.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
