Review on SLIM BPA-Free 450ml Water Bottle - Flat Design Fits in Bag by Hco Cortes

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Lid doesn't close properly (water bottle leaks)

I originally bought this water bottle because I needed something light to carry to school and was thrilled to find it was small and flat enough will fit in the side pocket of my backpack (Fjällräven Kanken 13"), especially as my backpack is notorious for having pockets that are too small to fit anything practical. Be careful not to drop or damage it, it will hold up well but I was wrong - a few minutes after I took it out of the box and filled it with water it had already started leaking before I put it aside in the pocket of my bag; I knew the quality wasn't great and that it broke easily but I didn't think the cap on the bottle wouldn't close properly I spent the rest of the day drying my bag n, making sure my bag stayed upright, and making sure the bottle was never more than half empty (to reduce the chance of a bottle spilling). Not sure if it's just my bottle not closing properly, or if everyone else isn't closing properly either (the bottle itself wasn't broken or cracked, so there was no other way it could have leaked). So I guess the point of this review is buy it if you plan on spending all day holding a bottle upright (nor is it worth it), or if you don't plan on filling the bottle to the brim. I'm giving it two stars because I love that it fits in my bag and I like the design of the bottle.

Pros
  • great product
Cons
