At first I was skeptical of the lid design but decided to give it a try. I’m so glad that I did! This is now a family favorite, greatly surpassing the design of Yeti tumblers that we had been using. This mug fits in all of our cars’ cup holders, can be carried easily when you don’t have any free hands, it really is leak proof, and it is actually enjoyable to sip or chug coffee from with a nicely designed lip/spout. I will be buying more!
It is the perfect size for carrying and it fits easily into the pocket on my backpack. The ring makes it easy to carry, and it is not so large that it feels like a weight workout. I particularly like the shape of the top, so I don't have to suck through a straw or worry about wearing the entire contents of the bottle.
I own many water bottles of different makes and sizes. The Takeya has become my favorite. The features are excellent and I can even hang the bottle from the bar on the recumbent bike that I pedal at the gym, making it easy to reach
I just got the wrong color. I wanted white and maybe they just sent me the last color I ordered. Not sure, was under a lot of stress during that time. It is a great product tho. Just not in the color I wanted.
