NFL Baltimore Ravens Two Piece 15-Ounce Glass Tankard Set
I love these! I got them for my boyfriend for Christmas, and he really likes them too. They are a little smaller than I was expecting, but it does hold a can of beer, or a can of soda w/out ice. The logos are my favorite part though, extremely nice. They aren''t just painted on like some mugs I''ve looked at they are raised and look really nice. Perfect for the price too, they look like they are worth more. They were shipped very timely as well. I''m very satisfied with this purchase.
AdNArt Sili-Squeeze Collapsible Silicone Hydra Bottle with Sport Lid Save 42% off
So I was looking for a fancy stainless steel oil dispenser and I thought "why?"; so I started looking for something practical that wasn''t messy and didn''t take up much space. This is the perfect oil dispenser: not flimsy, not pricey, doesn''t leave that trickle of oil after pouring...love it and worth every few pennies spent on it (not to mention it''s so much easier to grab it and pour the small amount of oil that I need and put it away).

The FIRM 750ml Aluminum Water Bottle (Tapestry)
This is best for going running, walking, or something where you''re going to actually carry it. It''s very lightweight. The best thing about it is the cap on the top you won''t accidentally poke or scratch yourself or someone else.
X-Lab Carbon Chimp Cage
I purchased this cage after having first purchased the torpedo cage. I was under the impression (from xlab) that bottles are less likely to be ejected from the chimp cage. Actually, its not so much about the cage, but rather the bottle. the xlab bottle is nice, but on a bumpy road it will be ejected. I found the camelback podium bottles to be a better solution, they''re slightly more robust than a standard bottle and sit nicely even on bumpy roads. besides the initial problems i had with ejecting bottles i am really happy with the torpedo bottle mount and therefore also with this cage. i would''ve given 5 stars to the cage + torpedo mount if the xlab bottle/cage combo worked well from the start.
NFL Green Bay Packers Two Piece Rocks Glass Set
I bought these glasses as a gift for my cheesehead hubby. He loves them. The glasses are a good weight and feel good when holding. The emblems are nice, no blemishes any where. The packing was great and they arrived very quickly. Would not hesitate to purchase again.
Rubbermaid Beverage Bottle BPA Free 20 Oz. Colors Vary
Pros:Fits car cupholder.
You drink normally, don''t have to suck or squirt.
You can fit ice cubes in.
You can freeze the whole thing if you want or by accident (important in our Montana winters!)
The finger-grip is a nice touch.
Good gripping surfaces on lid and bottle.
Dishwasher safe but I always hand wash plastics.
Translucent so you can verify cleanliness or how much water is left.
Easy to fit a scrubber or bottle brush inside to clean it.
Cons:
It is slightly unstable on a flat surface. Recommend you keep it closed between drinks.
Obviously it is not insulated but all the "Pro" features above are so much more important to me.
Doesn''t leak:
I can hold it upside-down and shake it without leaks. I routinely throw it in a bag when walking from car to work or home and it lays on its side and doesn''t leak. The only time it has leaked on me was when I dropped the whole bag onto the floor and it caused the lid to pop open. I''ve been using it daily for almost a year. Longterm carrying in a backpack with books, squished into a locker, tossed under the bus seat, might be pushing your luck.
As for leaking at the screw-on point, apparently some versions of this bottle have a gasket sealing the screw-on lid but mine seems to have a different design. Since some reviewers say the gasket falls out and then the bottle leaks, I am glad mine is not that style. Because it has good grips, it is easy to screw the lid on tight and still be able to open it later.
I like this bottle so much that I bought two more on seasonal special at my grocery store, in a 2-pack at a very good price.

I love this thing. It doesn''t spill, is easy to clean and easy to carry. What more can you ask for in a water bottle?Want Rubbermaid Beverage Bottle BPA Free 20 Oz. Colors Vary Discount?
I like the bottle overall. But when I fill it, and add my propel mix, then shake, it usually leaks at the screw on point. I think it needs the gasket that the previous design had. The pop top does open accidentally sometimes, but a lot less then the old design. And it is a bit top heavy... which can be an issue for some...
3 Sport Berkey Portable Water Purification Bottles Save 26% off
While I don''t have a lab at my disposal to test the filtration/purification claims, I think it''s important to have a few different water purification methods at your disposal. Whether you feel that iodine/chlorine bleach additives are more effective than physical filters...I believe it''s a good idea to probably use a combination of methods.Whether the area you''re camping in is more conducive to UV, pasteurization, boiling, or iodine/chlorine bleach water treatments...I think it''s a good idea to combine those methods with a physical filtration system. If you''re pulling tap water in the US from "the grid" and not a well, it''s most likely been treated with Chlorine Bleach already (unless it''s post natural disaster / emergency, then assume the water in the tap is contaminated).
These bottles are great in that the filtration is part of the sport top. So, our family gameplan is to pull clear as water as possible (filtered through a cotton bandana or a coffee filter) into one container, treat it chemically, then pour the treated water into these filter bottles for a second layer of "water cleaning" and consume our water from this bottle.
May be overkill, but I''d rather be safe than sorry.
Lightning fast shipping from DecoSpace, the seller. Going back to buy the table top purifier model...which also comes with 3 more of these portable models.

I''ve been using this bottle for two weeks and HATE it. The loop on the top is a great idea but it is placed on the moveable part of the lid which OPENS every time I attach it to my backpack. From day one this useless contraption can not be lain on its side with any certainty that it will retain its contents ..if I cannot use it on the outside or the inside of my pack I can''t use it. The filter has worked well so far..no aftertaste, but so what! Unfortunately I am in remote locations for the balance of my trip and the best I can do is use the bottle for filtration and then pour the water into another bottle for transport. Save your $$$$ and buy something else.Want 3 Sport Berkey Portable Water Purification Bottles Discount?
Couldn''t stand the taste off the watter coming out of the tape where I live. This bottle makes the water taste great and I would think that it is makeing the qulity of the water better as well.Save 26% off
Stanley Outdoor Vacuum Drink-Thru Bottle 16 ounce/ 473ml Save 7% off
Prosthis is a perfect balance between travel mug and thermos. it keeps your coffee pipin'' hot until 2:00 in the afternoon or thereabouts (your milage may vary). I can drink directly from the mug, but seal it up completely and not worry about leaks (in theory). Fits perfectly in a cup holder. Meets all my needs for a mug, the lid is super insulated.ConsIt requires the prowess of a US Marine field stripping his rifle to take the lid apart. It''s like 4 different rings and pieces with rubber seals throughout, I like to impress friends by putting on a blindfold and putting it back together.
....but the big problem with the mug, the afore mentioned rubber seals are not great, or require constant attention/cleaning. My mug leaks between several of the rings in the lid assembly, I''ve tracked it down to a particular rubber seal. So, this mug is otherwise perfect for my needs, but it constantly will drip onto my shirt when drinking.
I contacted Stanley about this, and the GREAT customer service immediately asked me for my address and sent another one, free of charge, but now I have two Stanley mugs that both drip in the exact same manner.
The entire bottle is stainless steel. It is double-walled, with a vacuum between the steel walls. The screw-on top seals very nicely and is made of a very strong plastic, it seems very solid. In fact, I mistook the base of the cap for steel because it was so solid. The base of the cap has a clip tab attached to it that can attach to backpacks, etc.. The cap assembly can be easily taken apart to thoroughly clean it.
When I first received it, and began using it, I took it for a jog with me. I noticed that as I sloshed my water around inside, a little splashed-out and I thought it was defective. I later realized that the bottom part of the cap assembly wasn''t screwed tightly when it was shipped to me and after I screwed it tightly, the mug sealed perfectly and works like a dream!
Drinking through the top is easy and convenient. With a turn of the outer ring of the cap, the outer ring rises above the inner orange hub about 1/16 of an inch and the liquid flows freely not just a little trickle like some travel mugs. This is great when you''re really thirsty from activity. The top is designed so that you can drink from any side you want to, which is really nice. I also like that it is labeled with a U.S. capacity of 16 ounces and not some metric liter garbage that no one uses here. It fits nicely in anyone''s hand, even if your hands are small (see circumference below).
Here are some specifics on the mug that I wish Amazon/Stanley would have given, so I will:
Height: 9-1/4 inches
Diameter: 2-13/16 inches
Circumference: 8-4/5 inches
Composition of mug interior: Stainless Steel
Composition of mug exterior: Stainless Steel
Composition of Cap/Top: Plastic/Polymer
Thermal Attrition Resistance: Vacuum
Empty Weight: 1 pound, 0.4 ounces
Liquid-Filled Weight: 2 pounds, 1.2 ounces
Maximum Capacity (Volume): 1 Pint (16 fluid ounces or 1/8 Gallon)
Country of Origin: Made in China (not USA, sadly).
Cleaning Method: Hand Wash Only [Not Dishwasher Safe]
Not Microwave Safe Do Not Microwave
Guarantee: Lifetime Guarantee
I have posted 10 pictures of the mug at various angles and pictures of the lid and how it works that were not posted when I bought it, so you can see what I wanted to see before I bought it.
Although I own many Stanley thermoses, this is the first of Stanley''s new Outdoor series that I have bought. I must say that I am impressed with the quality of the bottle and innovativeness of the design. It is definitely a mug that can be used not only in offices and commuting to work, but also on the job where ruggedness is required and out on the trail. The only drawback I see is that it is made in China instead of the U.S.A. Personally, I''d happily pay double the price for one that was made in U.S.A. In any case, a good Stanley product is worth the investment. Stanley''s famous Lifetime Guarantee is legendary and when you see how solid and well-built this product is, you can see why Stanley can offer such a great guarantee. I am so happy with this bottle that I am going to ask for another one for my birthday so I''ll have two one for water and one for coffee.
Buy Stanley Outdoor Vacuum Drink-Thru Bottle 16 ounce/ 473ml Now
First, the good: this is a really well-built bottle, and holds a temperature for a long time. Also, the enclosed literature claims the bottle has a lifetime warranty also nice. However, even after a couple weeks of use, the plastic lid still gives off a weird, plasticy smell. Hopefully it''ll go away, but it''s currently kinda annoying to drink delicate teas in.Read Best Reviews of Stanley Outdoor Vacuum Drink-Thru Bottle 16 ounce/ 473ml Here
I ordered 3 of these (1 for each member of our family), hoping they were 1/2 as great as their description. WOW -was I amazed!!! I made tea at 7:30 a.m., put it in my mug and went to work. I had the top of the mug(orange part)in the "open" position, so I could sip all morning at my desk and at Noon, my tea was still PIPING HOT! I couldn''t believe it! I know it is a little bit of an investment, but TOTALLY worth the price! The mug fits in the drink holder of my car bonus! It is a little heavier than your typical "to go" coffee mug, which my husband loves (heft=quality in his book). LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!! Also fast & free shipping love that, too!Want Stanley Outdoor Vacuum Drink-Thru Bottle 16 ounce/ 473ml Discount?
Expensive for a vacuum bottle is it worth it? Here''s my take: the design appears to be excellent, though it took me a while and several disassemblies and reassemblies of the complicated lid to figure out how to use it and clean it. As advertised, it closes with a secure click and appears watertight. It does a fine job keeping hot things hot, cold things cold. But it''s made in China -not known for high-quality consumer goods -and at this price, I might have expected Japanese, European, or even USA manufacture. So I''m looking skeptically at this complicated lid mechanism and wondering how long it''ll last. Now here''s the hooker it has the lifetime guarantee, meaning that -like certain other consumer goods of high-quality manufacture (think Sears Craftsman tools or Jansport packs) -you can send back the defective part at any time and get a free replacement. So my bet is that this is the new corporate strategy for higher-end consumer goods make ''em in China but offer to replace parts as they give out, and it''ll still be cheaper for the corporation than having them manufactured someplace where workers get a fairer share. That said, as of right now I''m happy with it.------------------
UPDATE: after several months'' using this bottle almost daily, I''m upgrading its rating. I''ve finally got the lid figured out. It has performed perfectly, it never leaks, it''s actually easy to clean once you''re comfortable with how the parts fit together. I suspect that the people who report its leaking have it assembled incorrectly. I''m very pleased with it and plan for it to be the last Thermos-type bottle I ever buy (assuming I don''t lose it).
-----------------
SECOND UPDATE (9/23/10): Answer to lead question is no, it won''t last. The plastic part which threads the cap into the bottle has disintegrated. It has had no more stress than regular daily use. I will say that I called Stanley''s toll-free number, got a human right away, and they are sending a replacement cap without any fuss, no return or receipt required. So I''m downgrading the rating; if you want to use this thing for the long haul, be ready to call for a replacement cap every 6-12 months or so.
----------------
THIRD UPDATE (11/4/10): So today the replacement lid broke again, it was the main part of the lid, the one with the handle attached, and again a small part of the plastic just disintegrated this time it comprised the edge of one of the locking tabs, so it won''t lock anymore and therefore is useless. I''ve called for another replacement lid, but this is getting old. I''ve downgraded my rating again.
---------------
FOURTH UPDATE(11/15/10): Third replacement lid in place, and now the vacuum is apparently gone cold iced coffee warms up in about an hour. I''m going to request a replacement, but as of now I''m downgrading its rating as low as it''ll go. BEWARE THIS PRODUCT! A HIGH-PRICED, POORLY-MANUFACTURED FAILURE.

Nalgene Kids OTF Chomp Bottle (12-Ounce)
This water bottle is perfect for my second grader. He is able to open and close it securely, and he prefers that it doesn''t use a straw or valve. (It''s also easier to clean that way.) I don''t think I''d recommend it for kindergarten or younger kids, though, since it might be harder for them to get it to close and it would definitely spill if knocked over while open.
When I saw these Nalgene kids bottles, I was about to snatch them up for my kids--same sort of lid design but smaller size. However, when I stopped by my local sporting goods store to see if they had any in stock for comparison, I discovered that the Nalgene lid design really isn''t very good. The button it hard to push--too hard to be ideal for young children (the obvious target audience). Even when you open it, it barely opens--no clear "pop" open like the Thermos brand (above). It''s even harder to properly latch closed.
My kids (3, 6, 8) would definitely have issues using this bottle--they could do it but it would be far from ideal and there would be accidents--guaranteed. Don''t bother with a kids bottle that''s hard for kids to use!
Buy Nalgene Kids OTF Chomp Bottle (12-Ounce) Now
I would''ve given this product 5 stars but for the fact that after 3 uses, the cap became really tough to close. My 3 year old son can''t snap it closed on his own, and when I help him close it, even I have to use quite a bit of elbow grease to get it to snap closed. I ordered 3 of these bottles. When the bottles first arrived, they were very easy to snap closed, even for my son. Now, all 3 of them are difficult to close. I specifically chose these bottles because I like that the opening has a cap to keep it covered (unlike other bottles where it''s just a straw that is exposed all the time, not very clean). I don''t think I would buy again.Read Best Reviews of Nalgene Kids OTF Chomp Bottle (12-Ounce) Here
This is a great bottle. Easy to wash, and fits well in my kids lunchbox. It''s been 2 weeks and no leaks. Only giving it 4 stars because it''s not insulated. It would be the perfect bottle otherwise.Want Nalgene Kids OTF Chomp Bottle (12-Ounce) Discount?
I bought this leakproof bottle to send with my 4-year-old son''s lunch for preschool. It fits nicely in his lunchbox. He has been using it for the last few days, and it works great. He can easily flip down the metal ring and push the button to open the lid and drink. He has no trouble pushing the lid shut and clipping it with the ring, which then allows him to carry it by the lid''s "loop." The only slight flaw is that when the bottle is empty and the lid is flipped open, the bottle is a bit top heavy and tips. But if the bottle is empty, then it''s not really a problem, I guess! I can see this lasting much longer than my daughter''s CamelBak Kid''s bottle, which will need a one-piece straw replacement for half the cost of the bottle. This Nalgene will not need any replacement anything, which I really like.
Clear2GO Active Water Bottle with Filter (BPA Free, Gray)
NOTE: My wife and I have two of these Clear2Go bottles (not "Clear2O" as the description states, nor is it a "24-Pound" bottle--it is capable of holding 24 ounces).My job takes me to a lot of cities and towns. Often, I find I do not like the taste of the water. Some places have a strong chlorine taste while others have a sort of turbidity/pond scum taste (i.e. Indianapolis). I''m not concerned about the water safety anywhere, but I do wonder what source of water I would turn to if in dire straits.
I like the taste of the water at my home, and even more like the near-distilled taste of our Clear2O pitcher, as I use the filtered water to make our teas and coffees. I like consistency in taste and have thrown out batches of expensive white tea (silver needles) I''ve made in hotels simply because the taste from the local water made the result repulsive. With the new version of the Clear2Go, this should never happen again. The water from this tastes pretty plain, similar to the water from the Clear2O pitcher, with the pitcher still tasting a bit more like "distilled" or flavor free (it seems a slight amount of some ''local'' flavor can still get through this filter at times, but it is nothing like the original taste).
Clear2O redesigned their filtered water bottle from the ground up. First, it is virtually all made from thick, but light, BPA-free Eastman Tritan co-polyester. Their prior bottle was some flimsy material that allowed water leakage around the threads of the cap when squeezed. That cannot happen with this bottle, as it is as firm as you could ever want.
If it is so strongly made, how do you get the water out? It is not intuitively obvious from the picture, but the black features on the sides of the bottle, those "rain-drops," are an inert sort of rubberized plastic that is extremely flexible, but taste-free. You squeeze the black bladder areas and water easily comes right out. No fuss at all.
The flip top has a spring hinge that assures the lid does not come back at your face when above you. A small button releases the lid.
There is a "travel loop" to allow you an additional carry option.
The insert that came with the bottle states that it has been tested for reduction in four areas. They are as follows:
Particulate Class I ( >0.5 um to 99.99% reduction
The bottle was designed in the US and made in China, but seems very well made. There is no plastic or rubber taste imparted from the bottle. It is dishwasher-safe as long as you first remove the replaceable ceramic filter.
My wife and I expect to use our bottles for years to come. The new Clear2GO Tritan bottles are definitely worth the money!
UPDATE: My wife''s bottle continues to be just fine; however, my own bottle developed a leak along-side one of the bladders. I have had to stop using it, which, if you could feel the bottle, you''d think it was the most well-engineered water-filter bottle you could expect to find. The bottle is done in by an adhesive problem. Stay away until this is fixed.

I first got one of these a couple of years of ago and it worked great. I didn''t have the leakage problem like I had with their earlier model, which can be found here:http://www.amazon.com/Clear2GO-Water-Bottle-Filter-Silver/dp/B00265MBSG/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1356292365&sr=8-9&keywords=clear2o&tag=651998669-20
Anyway, I didn''t use this one much so I didn''t wear it out or anything. Fast forward to this year, it''s been in storage for a while so I decided to go back to using it. Only a few days after using it, it started leaking. One of the bladders is disengaging from the bottle. Every time I squeeze, water is getting everywhere. Needless to say, I''m disappointed. Besides that problem, the filter is great and I really like the design. I''ve even had people ask me where I got it because it''s eye catching. I wish the company would put more of an effort into design because the idea is really good, but at the end of the day, I advise passing on this brand.
