Pogo Plastic Water Bottle with Chug Lid and Carry Handle, Reusable, BPA Free, Dishwasher Safe, Perfect for Travel, School, Outdoors, and Gym | 18oz, 32oz, 40oz, 64oz

I have been through TOO MANY water bottles in my life. The plastic ones shatter when dropped, the metal ones dent when dropped, and they're all just so easy TO DROP. And the LEAKS! I can't even tell you how many puddles I've caused from toting my water bottles around with me on the daily.I bought this water bottle for one reason: the PRICE. I was not looking for a good water bottle at the time, I guess because I stopped believing they were out there in the world, so I bought a cheap one assuming that it would have some kind of design flaw or break when I dropped it in a couple of weeks. I was WRONG! This is, hands down, THE BEST WATER BOTTLE I HAVE EVER OWNED. I have had it for over a year now, and I tote it with me on the daily, always on the move walking from class to class on a large outdoor college campus.There are THREE things that make this the best water bottle in the world:1. It is HARD TO DROP, even for me! I just hook my finger through that little bendy hooky thing up top, close my fist, and that sucker stays on me! I walk everywhere with this thing, and when I'm holding it through the loop, it is basically UNDROPPABLE! When I'm drinking from it, the little hand indentation up at the top of the water bottle is a very comfortable fit, and even when the bottle is full and heavy, it feels very balanced.2. WHEN I drop it, it DOESN'T BREAK! Let's face it: I am forgetful and clumsy. There are times when I don't hold the bottle the undroppable way. There are times when the bottle is sitting on my desk and I accidentally swipe it off. There was even this one time when I threw it into the air and then failed to catch it. But through all these drops, this bottle has not cracked yet. And a couple of my drops have been when the bottle was fullish. That being said, I haven't had TOO many major drops (thanks to the bottles undroppableness) so I wouldn't try pushing your luck with this one. But alot can be said just from the fact that this bottle has survived a year of daily use with ME, a certified water bottle destroyer.3. IT DOESN'T LEAK! This bottle has something that's hard to find these days: A TOP THAT ACTUALLY WORKS! I have NEVER experienced a single leak with this bottle - NOT EVEN ONE! I throw my bottle into my bookbag all the time, with precious lecture notes and expensive textbooks, some of which are rented and must be returned, and I can do so with FULL CONFIDENCE that my water bottle will not leak on them! I'm not talking the side pocket of my bookbag, I am talking in the main zipper with all of my other stuff. I make ZERO EFFORT to be careful when the bottle is in my bookbag. All day long that bookbag bumps into desks, walls, people, gets turned upside down, gets thrown on the floor, sat on, turned upside down, etc. This sucker doesn't leak.And that's it. THREE things that go into making the PERFECT WATER BOTTLE. This water bottle also has the added benefit of having a killer price (I was happy to pay the price I paid for it even when I was still assuming it was nothing special). It also holds 40 ounces of water, which is kind of a large amount of water compared to most water bottles. I bought this bottle with ZERO EXPECTATIONS, and it has turned out to be one of my favorite buys from Amazon to date. It definitely sparks joy in my life! Thank you, Pogo water bottles. You have created something of VALUE.

UPDATE #2After 1 year after buying my first and then 2 more, I continue to be pleased with these bottles! The translucent bottle allows you to not only quickly recognize the amount in the bottle, but you can also verify the interior cleanliness. Remarkably, the bottle stays clean! Yes, I do rinse/wash the inside as needed, I do it because it would just be weird to not clean it, yet it never shows ‘uncleanliness’. It’s almost as if somebody else is cleaning it when I’m not aware. These bottles still look brand new after in year. I have dropped them and they don’t scratch or break. If they ever fail I will replace them with them same bottle. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️UPDATE: Having these for 6 months I can say I wouldn’t have any other water bottle(s). FEATURES: Light-weight, Durable, 32 Ounce, Secure Lid, Wide Mouth for adding liquid and ice, Comfortable Drink Spout, Fit in car cup holder, Easy-to-Clean. It turns out that the handle position is not an issue AND all 3 bottles have perfectly survived falls and heavy use! Nothing has broken and the seal is as good as it was when new! 👏👏👏I’ve only had the bottle for 4 days, but I like it so much I ordered 2 more! One for my desk and another for travel. The original stays near the kitchen/great room. It does not leak at all and is tightly sealed - but I haven’t dropped it yet!😳It fits snugly in my car cup holder. It had a wide mouth for inserting ice and water. The lid fits tight. Being plastic, it’s very light and easy to carry. I have no desire to carry around a heavy metal bottle.Also, being plastic, I can see that the lid could break if impacted upon a hard surface at just the right spot, but not broken, THE LID SEALS TIGHT!If I could change one thing it would be to locate the handle further towards the back of the bottle. In its current position, when using it in the car the handle is in the way. Nevertheless, this is still a great bottle. If they break, I’ll get another because it fit my needs of being easy to fill and easy to chug if you’re thirsty.

FINALLY! A Great water bottle!!Boxes checked:* 32 oz*NO STRAW! (Who wants to suck water when you’re thirsty??)*Wide mouth for adding ice cubes.Yay!*No nasty “strap thing” that gets dirty & can’t be detached.*Secure closing lid that does NOT smack you in the nose while you’re drinking!I struggled for more than a year trying to love my contigo water bottle, but drinking was hard, the straw had to be scrubbed with a special thin thingie, the water sometimes exploded out of top without warning if I sat it down with the pour spout open, and I had to have a special ice cube tray just for my water bottle. Phooey!This Pogo is WONDERFUL!

Edited to correct a typo.This is a great water bottle for my purpose, which is something light to take walking in the heat. I got the 18-ounce size, and even filled with ice and water, it's not heavy. I especially love the color I got (pink), and I like the little loop that you can hook your thumb in for easy carrying.At first, it wasn't easy to open, but as I've used it, the lid isn't quite so tight (or maybe I'm more used to it).The thing I don't like about it is how much it sweats. The condensation drips everywhere. I know that's what non-insulated plastic bottles do when you put ice in them, but I didn't know it'd be that annoying. I had originally purchased two, one for me and one for my son to take to the gym, but with the way it sweats, I decided to return his and get him an insulated one so he won't drip all over the gym floor.
