ZojirushiSD-FB15-HG Zojirushi Water Bottle, Direct Drinking, Sports Type, Stainless Steel Cool Bottle, 3.5 gal (1.5 L), Lime Gray

Our second Zojirushi, a smaller one for the office and this one for trips or workout. They are perfect, keep water cool for hours, easy to use and clean, and....not made in China.

This is the 3rd insulated bottle I’ve bought from this brand. I got one for my son and daughter for baseball/softball and one for myself for work. They keep the beverages cold for a long time without ice. If you do put ice in them, you only need 5 ice cubes to keep the beverages ice cold for a long time. Highly recommend. Just make sure to wash them after every 2 fills and remove the sealing ring when washing as well so no mold will grow underneath them. I know, common sense but I’ve seen reviews where people complain about seeing mold grow on the sealing rings and I’m sure they are not taking them out when cleaning.

Keeps water colder longer

Excellent product , love to bring it any where from mountain to the beach .

Filled it to the top with ice and water on Friday night, drank and refilled with chilled water from the refrigerator 5 times, there was still a little ice left on Monday morningI don’t know whether it is a big concern that China (and some other countries) use lead in the joining process for stainless steel vacuum bottles. But Zojirushi (Japan and Philippines) does not. I’m playing it safe and buying a trusted brand that definitely doesn’t use lead in the manufacturing processI wish there was a Made in USA equivalent, but there is not. Travis makes a plastic two layer flask without vacuum seal made in USA (except for lid from China), but it only stays ice cold for 8 hours.

This is my second Cool Bottle (the first is 4 years old & still going strong (and looking great)). I love locking cap and the easy pouring spout. Unlike their regular thermos bottles, where the liquid exits into a little "basin" in the lid (I guess for slight cooling of hot liquids?) the spout just pours right into your mouth. They keep water cold for hours (filling it halfway with ice & then the rest with water will keep water cold for over a day).My only quibble is the cleaning. All those little silicone gaskets need to be pulled off periodically, cleaned carefully, dried COMPLETELY and then reassembled. It's kind of a hassle, but it does assure that the entire cap is fully cleanable, unlike some "easy to clean" cap assemblies out there. And if mold gets a toehold in that silicone (I haven't always been as fastidious as I should be), there's no way it's EVER coming out!

Love this bottle. Great for hiking and keeps your beverages cold for 48 hours and I still had ice.

It can keep cold for at least 24h. Seal very well. 1.5L is a good size for hiking, or wild life photograph. Highly recommend.
