Cirkul 32oz. Matte Black Stainless Steel Water Bottle Starter Kit with Black Lid and 2 Flavor Cartridges (1 LifeSip Blueberry Grape, 1 GoSip Kiwi Berry) No Sugar, Zero Calorie Drink Mix

I LOVE this water bottle. I only have one gripe about it. First, the chameleon color is really nice. It kind of transitions from purple to blue/green. The bottle has a nice protective film on it. This film *may* be an issue for people with sensory issues. I managed to drop my bottle and it scraped on the side of a table and the protecive film came off on that one spot, the paint is fine. Not sure what will happen yet. Second, the bottle is stainless steel! I really like knowing that the bottle won't eventually break when I (inevitably) drop it (frequently). Third, the cartridges! You get to pick the flavor, how much you want in the flavor. You can also switch to just water, which if fantastic if you start eating something sweet and you don't want to drown that out. The flip top lid could use a little improvement. I like that you push on the little things that hold the cap onto the cartridge to open them. *Most* of the time that works well. I like that you aren't constantly using the same mouth piece to suck through because you change them out when done. I like that theu are recyclable (you have to take them apart and recyce the parts that are). I like that they cost no more than name brand pop. If I drank 2 cans of pop per day, that would be $2.50, and you can get the cartridges on sale for $2.50. There are solid flavor options, too. If you go through Wally's Mart, or Cirkul website, you can by individual flavors to try. The cap does kind of hit your nose as you drink, but if you position the cap just right, you can get it to catch under the handle of the bottle and it will hold it back. The price was not bad, since it is stainless steel and it comes with 2 flavors. However, I made a boo-boo when ordering and got $4 off when I placed my order, but had to cancel the first order because I was too antsy and the selected the wrong shipping. I submitted a new order to get it next day, and lost the $4 because the cancelation of the first order was not complete. My fault! The thing I do not like is tipping the bottle up to get a drink. I mean, I don't mind it, but if I need a drink while driving it means I can't see the road well for a few seconds. I did buy a bottle that has the straw and it was absolutely awful. It was hard to get water through, which means it's hard to get flavor through. This bottle does not have the straw, and it very easy to get water through, but you have to tip it up. That's my only gripe, and not a consideration for my rating. Thank you to the wonderful lady that did a full video on how to do the dials and all that because it really did help a lot, and I think they should have her video in the ad. Also, if you are a cheapskate (read "have a lot of time on your hands and don't know how to math"), you could make your life more "interesting" by looking up hacks (that aren't actually that thrifty since the cartridges cost as much as pop, but cost more than plain water).

As advertised

It was easy to buy the bottles from Amazon but I can’t seem to purchase replacement cartridges which was the whole point of the product. Not fit for purpose for our market.

nice last min gift
