Sip by S'well

QVC is selling these as a two pack for $49 and they are very good albeit a bit more expensive than I would like. You can get them in stores individually for $24.99. Target has seasonal ones and a few select solid colored ones for $17 apiece right now.

It would be nice to get a short description or item number so we'd know what we're talking about. It's a water bottle K45624.

Yes, I'm sorry. I was falling asleep and thought I had deleted this instead of posting it. Thank you for providing the item number. This is a 15 ounce double wall stainless steel water bottle. As a two pack, QVC is offering this at the full retail price with free shipping. If you can't find it in a store, then this isn't too bad because Amazon sells it only through third party sellers at a markup.

Years ago we called these "Thermos" bottles and paid about $10 for a big one.

Now they are all over the place with some fancy designs and way overpriced.

Go to Walmart, get Ozark Trail, much cheaper and same quality

20 ounce is about $8, the bigger size is $10

These water bottles are great. They keep drinks with ice cold for 24 hours which is a must in Arizona. I also like Hydroflask which are also a bit pricy but worth it. Yes, Target has these for a better price.

These are nice and all, but the neck is so narrow that you would have to put the ice in it one piece at a time and not fill it by the door. Thermos brand has one and there is another one I have, but both have wide tops for filling at the door of your fridge. Both keep ice for 24 hours or hot for 24 hours, plus much cheaper than these. They are cute, but not for me. I have the Ozark Trails version of the Yeti cup, so I'm good to go with them.

Great point!

@mima I have that frustion with many of my water bottles, so I got rid of them. These would be in the same trash bag on the way to the Salvation Army. Practical is practical and not is not. These also appear taller than normal bottles, so that may be an issue for some coolers, bags, fridges, etc.... I have the 30oz Ozark Trails Yeti clone and bought a handle from Amazon for it because it is so wide and I'm a girl with small hands. The 30oz are more for men's hands than women's, so a handle fixed that. I am a practical person, so that is what I want in my things. I don't like that the lids with the Yeti's and clones are sippers that aren't spill-proof. There are other lids, but they aren't spill-proof....they just slow down the flow. I use a plastic straw with mine because I drink more from it than sipping it, but I drink more from a bottle. The ice gets in the way of the water flow when sipping it. I digress.

I agree with all of you in reference to all the other name brands listed. I own and still use quite a few of the wide opening Stanley containers to travel with smoothies as well as my share of the Bubba mugs and very expensive Starbucks mugs. My favorite in all the referenced brands that were mentioned is the Hydro Flask.

@Tigriss specifically, you mirror my thoughts on the Yeti style, they are not spill proof.

I did purchase a sale Sip by S'well for a specific reason. It is small, double walled, doesn't leak, and fits in my purse and cup holder easily. Any larger than 15 oz and it would not work as well for my purse.

Just bought a pack of 3 of these bottles at Sam's for twenty bucks. There are 3 different sizes, 7 Oz., 25 oz., & one somewhwere in the middle of those. They're all different colors and really pretty. They are made my Manna.
