Cold stay cold even in extreme temperatures
Insulated Water Bottle With Straw,32 oz Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel Sports Water Flask with 2 Lids & 2 Straws,Keeps Cold and Hot,Metal Water Bottle Wide Mouth for Gym Travel Camping(White, 32oz) ASIN # B0CKPDTN1K The YEBTS bottle comes with 3 lids. 2 straws. And a cleaning sponge that I feel is pretty useless, and a little scrubby brush to fit into and clean the straws. I prefer the pop top lid, I hate drinking through those straws because the vacuum created sucks stuff back into the bottle. It grosses me out a bit, for some reason, to be re-drinking my own spittle. And the pop top lid also has a small handle which is great for attaching my bottle to the backpack’s water holder net/compartment via a small carabiner clip so it doesn’t drop out while taking my backpack on and off. Which has happened to me before, ruining a 40 oz bottle’s vacuum and making it not much better than a plastic one. DON’T DROP THESE! All it takes is one hit at the bottom edge, and the welded seal can split open and compromise the vacuum and then it’s just another water bottle not keeping cold drinks cold for as long as it should. If you examine all of these types of bottles, and there are many on Amazon, you will see that the bottom seal is very close to the bottom edge of the bottle, maybe about ¼ inch. And it doesn’t take much of a hit on a hard surface to undo the seal. You might want to look up how they make these on YouTube, there are several vids and I find it fascinating. I have 25 and 40 oz. stainless steel bottles from Fine Dine and they work great. They boast triple walled, vacuum sealed bottles, and they work the best out of all the bottles I’ve tried thus far. I purchased the 40 oz. for biking when I need more than 25 ounces of water, but sometimes for short journeys, or when I know I can refill it at certain stops, it can be a little cumbersome to take with me on the go, especially when I am driving and not biking around. So I use the 25 oz. for those times. However, somehow I had misplaced my 25 oz about 2 months ago, it was getting in the 100’s here in the valley, and I decided to purchase another one. In my mind, I had thought that the 25 oz was a 32 oz bottle, so that is the size I looked to replace, not realizing that the 32 would be larger in diameter, and almost as large, and heavy when filled as the 40 oz is. The 32 oz has the same diameter as my 40 oz. and it’s almost as big. I hope this isn’t confusing. I decided to look at other brands, because I thought that the Fine Dine bottles in the 32 oz size were a little pricey for my budget at this time. It is summer after all, and the law of supply and demand dictates a higher price. I came across the YEBTS Life bottle in white while using the Amazon search filter “low-high”, my favorite filter most times. I had wanted a water bottle in white because it reflects the sun better than any other color. And the price was right. On other purchases, I really didn’t care about the color, it was whatever was the most cost effective, aka lowest price. I decided to give it a try. I don’t feel the need to make a fashion statement with a water bottle. The YEBTS has a double walled, vacuum insulated construction, which is what keeps the water cold for longer periods. A prerequisite for all stainless steel water bottles. Double walled without the vacuum is useless, and just because the seller might have stated ‘double walled’ doesn’t necessarily mean it is vacuum sealed as well. If it doesn’t say ‘vacuum sealed’, then it’s probably not. When the YEBTS bottle arrived, I washed it out, filled it up with mostly water and some ice and let it sit overnight. I was a bit disappointed to find the next day that the ice had melted, however the water was still very cold. I decided to give it the acid test that day when the temps would be about 102 to 104 here where I live. So I put in some fresh cold water and some ice, and put it outside in the sunlight and let it sit for about 5 hours. When I opened the bottle it still had a small amount of ice in it, and the water was cold. It hit 105 that day, in the shade. The ground temperature on my concrete patio where I put the bottle was about 135+ degrees, in the sunlight during most of the afternoon. I am impressed. I didn’t put very much ice in it. Usually when I want water to stay cold I will put about half water and half ice. Volume wise, I put in about 20% ice and the rest was cold water from the fridge. But still, this bottle didn’t seem to perform as well as the Fine Dine bottle did. So I did another side by side comparison test. I will include the vid for you. I put 10 ice cubes and 1 cup of water in each of the bottles. Mind you that the 40 oz bottle is 20% larger and is darker in color with more surface area exposed to the heat. And that day the temperature hit 109 degrees. omg! I was really impressed with the YEBTS bottle’s performance. Although overall the triple walled bottle (turquoise) held up better, there was more ice remaining, the white bottle performed remarkably well. IT’S A KEEPER! btw, when I took the outer wall temperatures of both bottles throughout that hot afternoon, I did notice that the darker turquoise color was about 3 degrees hotter, even in ambient light and not direct sunlight. The hottest temp I measured on the white bottle was 104, while at the same time the darker bottle was 107. Who’d a thunk it? And on the video of my very scientific experiment /s, you can see a clock in the background displaying the temperature, which I purchased here, and the temperature gauge on it is highly accurate, within 1 degree of what the NOAA online says for my area. The humidity gauge? not so much. I can’t tell you the exact price I paid for this white YEBTS bottle, because sometimes Amazon will kick those reviews, but I can tell you it was a sale price and under $11 at the time of this writing. And there are other bottles out there for a similar price, but the overall reviews just weren’t flattering as to their performances. I have yet to use one of these bottles for hot drinks, so I can’t make a valid comment on that. It’s always fun and satisfying to be able to bestow the 5 star crown on a product. And the YEBTS bottle has earned that title. I’ve noticed when looking over my own review history that I tend to be on the critical side. Maybe I expect too much from a product, or maybe I’m turning into one of those grumpy old men. Or maybe, just maybe I get tired of sellers making claims that their products don’t live up to, which is the most likely case. This bottle was a great value for the price I paid, much less than the Fine Dine 32 oz bottle. Sometimes the selection of products on Amazon is so vast it is overwhelming. There is a sea of stainless steel water bottles here. I’ve read that it takes about 4 tons of crushed rock to mine 1 ounce of gold. This bottle was the 1 ounce of gold. I highly recommend it and would buy it again. And two weeks after this bottle arrived, I found my other 25 oz bottle. That is when I realized it was only 25 oz. But I like this white YEBTS bottle quite a lot and I will get a lot of use out of it. I hope this helped you with your shopping, let me know below. Thorough reviews take a while to create, and I need to know if they’re doing any good. Most shoppers don’t even rate a product, and only about 10 – 20% of the star ratings are accompanied by a review. I know many people don’t have time, but I’m retired now (sort of) and today I just don’t feel like cutting the grass, it’s already 94 degrees out and it’s only 11am so I did this instead. My lawn isn’t going anywhere.peace out

Water bottle a little pricey but stays cold long periods of time.
I leave in Arizona where the outside temperature reaches more than 110 degrees. I left this item in my car a couple of times while i worked an 8 hour work shift yet there was still ice left in bottle and water was still ice cold. The lid is spill proof and the item is very durable and easy to clean despite the item being white. The item is able to fit in my car’s cup holder easily and despite the thick installation and the weight of item when full of ice it was still easy to travel with and use while at the gym or at work or at home or in the car. I recommend this item despite it being a little more on the expensive price.

Keeps things COLD
Ice last to the next day – works great!

Leaks
Started leaking after the second use. Hand washed and still leaks. Durable when dropped by my kids, but wish it didn’t leak
