I really like the Hydro flasks and I have a few of them, for any occasion.
There’s however a few pro’s and con’s with these bottles.
Pros
Double Insulated – Keeps your water cold up to 24 hours
Wide mouth / different types of lids are available
Leak proof
Handle strap – Easy to carry by hand anywhere
Stainless steel – Haven’t noticed any rust inside or outside, so far!
Sleek and beautiful design + Slip free grip / Powder Coating
No condensation on the outside due to great Insulation
Lifetime Warranty
Cons
If not careful, it can get scratches and dents
Have to be hand washed / No dishwasher
Handle strap will most likely wear out overtime
The cons are nothing compared to the pros, however I personally like my bottles to last a lifetime, so I always find myself a sleeve to make sure it doesn’t get any dents, or gets damaged over time.
After all it’s a quite expensive bottle..
I found that the Wild Wolf Outfitters 25oz Bottle holder, fits perfectly
Update 2020/04/14: The bottle is still holding out and so is the holder, amazing!
