[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this one. I have 3 and this is the first one with the new sip lid. Now im not spilling my coffee when i drive! Also, it keeps it hot which is nice. The design is very good and love the ability to carry it with the handle. Highly recommended.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am not new to this brand. Because of this, I had high expectations when I received this to review. It has solid stainless steel construction. The handle makes it easy to carry to my car when my hands are full. It indeed keeps my drink cold for a long time, as well as my coffee hot for a long time. I am really liking the twist top to open and close the drinking valve. I like it so much more than a flip top! This cup has met my expectations. I do hand wash it, I was all of my dishes. It is really a great commuter cup, for sure.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband and I use this flask both for water, tea and coffee. It maintains the temperature of the liquid for a very long time, which comes in handy when we go on a road trip and I fill it up with some green tea. It stays fresh and ice cold for longer than we'd ever need it. We also use it for coffee, and again, it keeps it hot for hours. However, I don't have the need to keep my coffee hot all day long, so we add cold creamer, plus 1-2 ice cubes in coffee, to adjust the temperature to a level where it can be safely consumed. So proceed with caution: hot liquids do stay hot!
It is stainless steel, so it does not retain or transfer flavors and it is also BPA-free. The powder coat on the outside of the flask makes it easy to grip and hold on to. It does not spill if it is closed, but if you are in the car and you are using it regularly, it is a bit tricky to close without using both hands. If you don't close it and it falls, it will spill some. Our cup holder is way too short for this flask, so we have had quite a few spills.
Now onto the not-so-fun part: cleaning it. It is dishwasher safe, but it is recommended to hand wash it, which is what I do. It needs to be washed after each use, or you will get hard-to-remove coffee deposits at the bottom, which require a good bottle brush. My biggest issue, however, is the lid. It has 3 different parts, plus a seal. Do not forget about the seal or it will start growing mold. I use a specially assigned toothbrush for better cleaning. I sometimes also have to use a reusable straw brush to get into all the corners properly. Every few days I soak all parts in a bowl with baking soda and vinegar. It takes a little longer to clean than your average coffee tumbler/cup/mug and that is my only issue with this product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best little thing I have gotten in a while.It's great to take coffee in the doctor's offices on a road tripAnywhere I need coffee to stay hot for a while and it really does work! When it arrive I washed it real good and hot Sophie water rinsed it and let it dry outPut it back togetherAnd filled it full with coffee and creamerBecause I had a doctor's appointment that afternoon.Well forgot about the coffee that I put in ITIT was 3:00 left it on the kitchen counter when it came back home, And the next morning I went to clean itAnd the coffee was still very warm.I was amazed!This is a great little itemAnd it works just as it describes.Better get 1!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been wanting my own hydro flask for quite some time now but just have not made the investment. I love this coffee mug, it is easy to clean and the lid seems great (so far) in preventing unnecessary spills (as long as you have it twist to close). It's kept my coffee warm through all my morning zoom meetings and kept my water cold for a whole day (there were even a couple of ice cubes left). I like that the design is sleek and simple and can fit in essentially any cup holder. Thinking I might invest in some of the bigger water bottles for Christmas.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my Hydro Flask 20 oz Coffee with Flex Sip Lid - White. It keeps my coffee hot all day. I fill it up in the morning and by the evening when it is still in there, it is still pretty hot. The white color is really nice. The black color of the lid is really nice. It is very easy to take every part of the lid apart to thoroughly wash it in the dishwasher. I put the parts of the lid on the top part of the dishwasher and I put the other part on the bottom part of the dishwasher. When I am ready to put lid back together because I am going to use it, it is really easy to put it back together. I have gotten many compliments about my flask. It is made of really good and thick material. It has a handle on the lid so I can carry it from there.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a walker who likes to take water with me. Though this product is titled coffee flask I use for water. Wide mouth allows easy use if ice. Handle is great for carrying. Seems to keep water cool for an acceptable amount of time. Have not tried hot beverages.
