GORGEOUS TO USE BUT DIDN'T LAST

Loved the lid in use (but see below). It's soft-touch material and chunky size were perfect for both frozen and sweat-slippery hands. The built-in loop was also very handy.

The bottle mouth was a very civilized size.

Not a quarter as strong or durable as expected. Small cracks started appearing around the mouth after only a few weeks (perhaps due to over-tightening of the sexily designed lid?) and after a few months it started leaking.

Also didn't inspire confidence when dropped or knocked.

Loved it while it lasted but certainly wouldn't get another one.
