I've cycled through my fair share of water bottles in my life. I've done the Nalgenes,Watch Games of Seduction Online Sips, and HydroFlasks. I've tried all the different materials, too: plastic, metal, and glass. Just through trying to cut my single-use plastics for a more sustainable lifestyle, I've ended up with a whole slew of water bottles on my hunt to find The One. But ultimately, a reusable water bottle is about cutting waste, so buying up a bunch of different ones defeats the purpose. That's why I'm ready to tell you about the water bottle to end all water bottles: the Owala FreeSip.
The first time I ever came across the Owala FreeSip was, of course, on TikTok. A user posted a video with its exciting feature, the ability to both sip water through the built-in straw or chug through a spout. I go full Goldilocks when it comes to water bottles, so this certainly piqued my interest as I've never been able to find a water bottle that has a straw but also a cover or a mouth opening that's narrow enough so I'm not spilling all over myself.
After several weeks of mulling it over, asking myself Do I really need a new water bottle?I finally settled on a color combo and hit checkout. Now, after several years with the water bottle, I can safely say it was the best $40 I've ever spent. The Owala FreeSip lives up to its promise of both a sippable and chuggable water bottle. The best part to me is that, unlike other bottles with a straw that I've used, the FreeSip has a cover for the spout. That way, when you're out and about in the world, it's safe from germs and bacteria.
The FreeSip's insulation really is impeccable, offering 24 hours of cold. I've filled mine up with ice and water to come back a day later and still find the jingle of full ice cubes. Plus, the two-part locking lid can also double as a loop for easy carrying. Cleaning is also easy with the FreeSip. The top part's components (lid and straw) are dishwasher safe, while the body is hand-wash recommended. Full transparency though — I've put the full Owala in the dishwasher for years, and while its insulation has weakened, it's not by much.
The FreeSip water bottle comes in three different sizes: 24 ounces, 32 ounces, and 40 ounces. Fair warning, the 40-ounce water bottle, which I have, is giant. Neither the 32- nor 40-ounce options fit in cup holders, which is a real pain. If you are looking for a more travel-friendly option, the 24-ounce size will fit.
Since the FreeSip first launched, Owala has expanded its lineup to tumblers and other styles of bottles. I recently added another FreeSip, the Twist, to my collection as a travel option. Its skinnier design fits in both cup holders and backpack side pockets, which my 40-ounce FreeSip can't. Plus, the classic FreeSip is not exactly airplane-friendly. The lid builds up pressure, which results in a small in-flight water burst when you go to open it. Luckily, the Twist does not suffer from this problem, as I used it on a recent flight and didn't encounter this issue.
Just by looking at my Owala you can tell it is well-loved. It's my go-to recommendation when folks are in need of a new water bottle, and I'm known to gift it to my loved ones. It's the best water bottle I've ever used, and worth its viral hype.
