I was looking for a slender bottle to fit in my smaller day pack bottle pocket. Shocking how challenging that can actually be.
I read many reviews of bottles like this one and finally took the leap with this one. It fits (barely), isn't too tall, and the strap allows me to fasten it to the bag without fear of it slipping out under the seat or elsewhere when traveling.
I didn't notice any metal taste after washing and filling with cool water.
Water keeps its fill temp for enough hours for my liking. I drink 3-4 bottles a day.
Ice - the opening is large enough to hold ice cubes from my fridge's ice maker with no issue. And as a test, I did fill with just ice and 3 days later I still had mostly ice and very little water while keeping the bottle sealed and only shaking to discern contents. That's plenty of ice life for me.
The bottle strap does leave a bit to be desired. It would be nice if you could fit it over your hand and let it hang from your wrist instead of just looping a few fingers through it, but it's better than nothing, and can easily be altered if that's your desire.
The powder coating on the outside is nice, only time will tell just how durable it is. But under light use, it should hold up well. And they had a color that coordinated with my day pack - BONUS!
Overall, I'm pleased with the bottle for the price I paid.
