Perfect shape for me, unnecessary cap cover
So far, so good. Been using this for about a week now. I happen to like the shape because for whatever reason, I tend to prefer drinking from a narrow bottle. You may need to purchase a long, narrow bottle brush to clean this because the standard drinking-glass-sized dish brush won't fit through the mouth of this.During the first wash I did notice that the bamboo cap has a small crack. Hopefully, even if it breaks entirely, I can still use the plastic cap beneath it. Also, because of this crack, I don't trust the tiny lanyard on the top - I won't be using that to carry the bottle.To be completely honest, I think these bamboo covers are unnecessary. They seem to serve the purpose of "looking more eco-friendly". I get that bamboo is just not a good material on its own to make a durable screw top cap for a bottle like this. Either use a stainless steel cap or just be honest and use a plastic one without trying cover it. I mean, the whole point of reusable water bottles is to reduce waste, right?Waste is waste, even if it's biodegradable. And if the bamboo completely falls apart and I find that the plastic cap doesn't work without it, have I not just wasted an entire glass bottle?Rant over. Overall, I like the shape and design of the bottle. I'm going to wait and see how the cap situation progresses, however, before ordering a second one.

Almost our four-month anniversary <3
This bottle and I have been together almost four months. I bought this one and the similar "Yomious Borosilicate Glass Water Bottle with Bamboo Lid and Silicone Sleeve - 20 oz – BPA Free – Eco Friendly and Reusable – Leak Proof Design – Carry Strap Built Into Lid (Charcoal Grey)," which has a wider mouth and costs a dollar less. I planned to return whichever one I liked less. I took this one out of the box to try first because I expected this to be the loser. We haven't been apart a day since. That other one is still in the box. (Which is OK because it's a backup if Nerub breaks.)The mouth is quite comfortable to drink out of. I believed wider would be better, but it seems I was wrong. Based on other reviewers' tips I don't carry it by the strap much, just in case that fails, and otherwise I've been careful not to bang it around. (To be fair it's a pandemic and I've been home 95% of the time.)I previously used a stainless steel bottle and the filthy mold that grew inside it was terrifying, and hard to notice until it got really nasty. So I figured glass would solve that problem because I'd see that ugly mold right away, except not exactly. Once I used it for a sports drink that was an opaque whitish color, and right away I saw some gray spots that I couldn't see drinking plain water. I don't know how often I should wash this, but probably more than I do. The Yomious bottle came with a little foam and plastic bottle brush, and I've been using that to clean Nerub.The lid has a rubber ring that occasionally lifts up a little and you'll see some black spots on that and inside the lid. De-molding the lid and ring is not the easiest cleaning task ever. Don't worry, all the mold I've ingested over the years is keeping my immune system guessing, keeping it agile, like a prizefighter shadowboxing.This is a minor plus, but I wanted BLACK, like my soul, and this is one of the only glass bottles with a black sleeve.

Rim broke on first use.
Upon the first time using this bottle, I had one drink from it, screwed the lid back on, the next time I went to unscrew the top a chunk of glass came off with it. It was never bumped or hit, just regular ol use of a water bottle. Totally bummed to toss this bottle! Because it was pretty....for one sip.

Ok, but flawed and I'm going metal next time
Overall a pretty good water bottle, but I had a few issues with it...Pros:- Glass, metal and a tiny bit of rubber or silicone is all that touches the water, not plastic. (there is a bit of plastic under the bamboo, but it doesn't touch the water)- Looks good.- Loop coming out of cap makes it easy to carry with a finger or two...Cons:- The red was a bit pinker than I was hoping for.- While it sits fine on a good desk or counter, the sleeve and narrowness make it a little finicky to get sitting straight sometimes.- Bit heavy for the amount of water it holds- The sleeve makes it hard to slip the bottle into the mesh bottle spot in my bags (sticks)- When I was pulling my bag out at the airport, it fell out (see prior con) and shattered.Was a decent water bottle while it lasted, but I'm looking at stainless steel for my next one.

Just OK
It’s a water jug. It doesn’t leak so far. The bamboo lid is attractive. Cons...doesn’t hold much liquid, 22oz...doesn’t keep water cold for long...I think it is overpriced.

Looks Great But Doesn't Last
So disappointed with this product. I bought this a few months ago, and thought that a glass bottle would lead to better water flavor. After several weeks of consistent use, the bottom of the bottle completely shattered - narrowly missing my keyboard. The look of this bottle is great, but it's very poorly made. Don't waste your money on this low quality product.

Love this!
I am an elementary teacher and trying to stay hydrating during the day is a challenge. I wanted a glass water bottle and was growing tired of using silicone and/or steel straws. This bottle is easy to drink from and easy to clean. The silicone cover makes it easy to set down and so far I have not dropped it. If you want a glass water bottle, I would highly recommend this one.

Broke without being dropped
I have been using this water bottle for about 6 weeks. I filled it up and brought it to work. I unscrewed the lid, the bottom cracked and water leaked every where. I never even dropped it. Super disappointing since my return window has closed
