The reviews for this product all seem to be from the USA - where people talk about things being 'a blend of precious flowers enriched with Hyaluronic Acid and Pro-Xylane', imagining that these must have wonderous powers, and where this product is made in various 'colors' - so here's an English translation for users of Amazon.co.uk.Firstly let's demystify some of the jargon used in the Product Description:- The bottles 'are BPA free and contain no phthalates'. Do you know what these are? Well,from what I can make out, 'BPA' is Bisphenol A, some sort of polycarbonate, and 'phthalates' are used as plasticisers to soften PVC (polyvinyl chloride). Both are said to change hormone levels.

It seems I have to suck the water out, as squeezing the bottle seems a little too hard if I actually want a second-long steady stream of water. This isn't a big issue to me though. What I love about this is that I can fill it to the top with water (I usually leave the rim area where the cap goes over it without water, though, just to be safe) and stick it in the freezer without worries of it exploding, distorting, or damaging the bottle. I have a smaller 20oz bottle of this same brand that I also stick in the freezer after filling halfway with water. I like to pour some regular water into the smaller bottle when I'm ready to use it so it can start melting the ice quicker while still having my cold water ready to drink.

This polar water bottle is my second one. The first was a 20 oz one that is about 4 years old now and still working great. So I had similar expectations for this larger 24 oz one that I bought for my son. We use it the same way, add some water. Lay it slightly horizontal in the freezer until a block of ice forms along one side, fill the rest with water and take it to go!Just squeeze it to crack the ice and you have cool water for a few hours. This isn't a thermos folks, and my expectations are set accordingly. Compared to an insulated metal water bottle, yes this allows the water to warm up quicker but if you goals are half a day of cold water, this one may not be your answer. But if 2-4 hours works,

I purchased the 24oz Jubilee insulated polar bottle. For the price? It is amazing! Don't pay attention to some of the reviews that say "It's hard to squeeze out the water" or "it's just wrapped in paper". Those people obviously did not pass elementary school. It's not a squeeze bottle. You are not suppose to squeeze it to get the water out, you are suppose to SUCK! Now, ill level with you, when you start sucking the led does try to close up on you so you have to keep it up and open, other than that it's easy to drink out of. The "paper" that people are complaining it is wrapped in is the INSULATION. Seriously, people, how do you not get that? It's also not like your wrapping your hands around the insulation,

I needed a new travel cup/water bottle because my old one was leaking. I was determined to buy American made. I prefer a water cup (32oz) but could not find an American made one. So that left the bottles. I settled on the Polar bottles because they were American made and insulated. The insulation keeps the water colder for longer periods and it doesn't have as much condensation on the outside.I ended up with two 24oz bottles, so they would fit in my truck cup holders. I usually rotate them, one goes out with me and then one for the evening (I hate to keep refilling ice and water in a glass).Positives:American madeDoesn't leakStays cold in desert southwest for a reasonable preiod of time (always

I do a lot of cycling training in Houston during the summer (century rides, Ironman). These things make a big difference. I ride with 3 24oz bottles. One is not insulated, the other two are insulated. I make sure they are all frozen (freezer for at least 24 hours) with gatoraid (or similar). Prior to the ride, I hydrate up. 20+ min into the ride, the non-insulated bottle is cool liquid. It lasts an hour (not so cool anymore). The second hour, I start with the thermal bottle. It is still almost frozen/slushy. I get enough fluid out of it to keep me going. It thaws at about the same pace I need fluid. I finish it off by the end of the second hour. At the start of The third hour, I start my last (insulated)

I used this bottle daily this summer. It is well designed, the grips and the plastic loop to pull it out of the bottle cage work just fine. You can put it in the dishwasher too. With the color choices you can feel a bit more unique or match your helmet colors or something. All that said, after 6 months I've noticed sometimes it will leak around the screw top...not sure if I'm not getting it screwed down tight enough or what, but more than once I've ended up with a water streak on the front of my shirt. Not a problem if your biking on a hot, humid day but if you use it around the house too the wife will start to wonder about your motor skills and if you've had a stroke. All jokes aside,

Seems to have a slightly slimmer profile than my other bottle, a 21 oz Camelbak, so slides in and out of cage a bit easier. Neither this nor the similar Cambelbak are that well-insulated, IMHO. Keeps water cold, but IMO you have to start out with very cold water, ie with much ice, and/or freeze the water first, to keep it cold on hotter days. I used chilled water with a few ice cubes on an unusally hot, humid day, and within about an hour the water was almost lukewarm. On subsequent rides, I filled the bottle with half water, half ice, and that worked much better.Not much difference between Polar and Camelbak in terms of size or shape other than the proprietary Camelbak top,

I purchased two 24-oz bottles in the black graphic color scheme. They keep your drink cool a long time, much better than the cheap, non-insulated variety. As shown in the picture, I can easily fit both 24 oz. bottles in either the upright or horizontal holder. The water also tasted normal with no aftertaste.I did a little experiment to put some numbers behind the manufacturer claims. Identical bottles placed in the sun and in the shade, outside temp 68-72 F. Their rise in temperature can be seen in the attached photo. After over two hours outside, the bottle in the shade went from fridge temp (43 F) to 57 F. The bottle in the direct sun took over two hours to reach the ambient temperature.

I've had these bottles for months and at first I was neither impressed nor unimpressed. These bottles keep beverages cooler than most sports bottles but they aren't ice cold. On most road rides my spare bottle flies off my bike into the road which is definitely an issue with my bottle cage. The last ride I was on the bottle flew onto a road when there were a few cars passing so I couldn't get it right away. A truck ran over it! I thought it was a done deal but I went and picked it up anyway. It was slightly misshaped and the top popped open and water came out but it was holding the water that was inside it and that's good enough for me. By the time I got back home and looked at the bottle,

I purchased this bottle because I was looking for a water bottle that would fit in to the side of my book bag (AKA diaper bag/travel bag)and that was also insulated. The water bottle is great. I loved that it is dishwasher safe and can be frozen. We used it almost everyday since purchase. Even in 90+ degree weather, it kept water cold. Ice would last at least an hour in the 90 degree weather(if kept out of direct sunlight). The only downfall is cleaning the actual bottle if gets on the inside. Yes, can be put in the dishwasher, but the grooves inside don't always get clean. I will occasionally use a water drink packet (like crystal light or propel) and some of power is still stuck on the sides.

Bought this bottle in the 24oz size for it's insulated properties, to keep my drink cool while out cycling.It works, but it depends on how much of your drink starts off as ice. I ride in the tropics (usually in the mid to high 90s Fahrenheit) and once I fill it with at least half ice and the balance with cold liquid, it would usually stay cold for about an hour or so. After that, it just stays kinda cool - but it never gets HOT.Another nice feature of the insulation is that there is very little water condensation, so it keeps my bike and surrounding components from getting excess water. And unlike some of the other reviews here,

There are many things that I really like about this water bottle. The design is eye-catching, unusual, I don't mind carrying it in public and because of the little strap, it is easy to carry. The shape of the bottle is ergonomic, intuitively shaped to the human hand. If closed, the bottle doesn't leak when tipped over and no water condenses onto your table or other furnishings when you set it down. I like the pull-out nipple you drink from, it is reminiscent of the disposable plastic water bottles I used to like in the store.In short, I like everything about it except for one thing which is what kept it from 5 stars: for an insulated bottle, it doesn't keep your water cold very long. If you add ice,

I recently purchased a set of these water bottles for bike riding. The bottles stay retained within the mounts on the bike but the plastic is very thin and has a lot of give to it which makes it feel cheap and the insulation doesn't seem to do much in terms of keeping the water cold. These bottles don't seem like they will last long... I've been putting them in the dishwasher and they already get foggy in between the walls and insulation, showing that moisture is getting in. It's nice that the mouth nozzle can be separated from the lid for washing. Impressively, my boyfriend dropped one of his bottles as he was riding and then rode his bike over it, resulting in the scratches shown in the image.

I wanted an insulated water bottle mainly for soda and gatorade to take to work. I usually put 4-6 medium ice cubes in it w/ refrigerated drinks, and with the insulation on this water bottle it keeps them cold for 4hrs at room temperature. For that purpose it works really well. However a fatal problem I had with this bottle is if you put soda in it, and that soda shakes (from say sitting in a car drive) it will leak from the threads that the top part screws on with. The actual nozzle doesn't leak, just the threads, which is odd. Under normal use, say just some water you tip upside down squeeze with the lid shut - it doesn't seem to leak. I have the insulated camelbak podium bottle too,
