I got this wide-mouth Hydroflask 32 ounce in Olive as a Christmas gift. I was pretty skeptical because I know the Hydroflask brand is really expensive, and I am typically of the opinion that there is always a cheaper alternative than the ubiquitous, top-dollar brand. But since it was a gift I decided to embrace it, and I am glad I did.This is a great product. I have been trying for SO long to drink more water, and have tried a few different cups and bottles. I think between the size, temperature, and straw design of this cup, I drink way more water every day with this bottle than ever before! At 7:00 am I fill it about 1/4 full with ice cubes and the rest with water and it stays nice and cold all day. By 3:00 pm the ice cubes are mostly gone and I am ready for a refill.Being the wide mouth bottle, this is easy to clean and dries quickly. I LOVE the powdercoat finish and this color is THE BEST. It is durable and the straw always stays put inside the lid - it has never fallen out on its own like some others I have tried.Only two downsides - one, for smaller hands it is a little unwieldy. Thankfully, the little plastic loop behind the straw is the perfect spot for my pointer finger to go in which helps me hold it securely. Also, it does not fit in my car's cupholder, but I do have an older, small car - this may not be an issue in larger or newer cars.Overall, I can see why this is the preferred brand. I have used it every day and will continue to!
