ful Unisex Adult Superstition Daypack
This is the third backpack I purchased from F''''ul and they continue to amaze me.I have tried other brands that cost much more and I find that they don''t last as long.
My kids beat these up between school, gymnastics and karate every week and they still look new.
I would highly recommend these to anyone for school or play and for adults or children. Great look and GREAT value!

I bought this to replace a Victorinox backpack that was falling apart and so far I''m very impressed. I had no interest in purchasing one of the many extremely complicated looking backpacks out there. I feel like 3-5 compartments aside from the main one is enough. Any more than that and you''ll forget you even had them. There are also way too many backpacks with extreme designs conceived by those with very garish tastes. I like simple: solid colors and no flair that doesn''t serve a function. I also want something durable, roomy and not too expensive. This fit the bill perfectly. At under $25 it was far less than what I was willing to spend and delivered way more than I expected. The main compartment is roomy -big enough to accommodate a basketball -which is exactly what I needed. Sure, it can fit a laptop, books or what have you as well. It has a two side pockets and two zippered front pockets. It has a holders for pens and pencils as well. I believe this is made from 1680D polyester. That''s pretty impressive at this price. If you''re not aware, D, or denier, refers to the fiber density, similar to thread count. Higher is better.This pack is great, but not perfect. There are a few things I would change: 1. make the top slightly tapered; it''s very boxy; 2. make the logo a bit more discrete; it''s way too showy 3. make the bottle holder a bit more snug. My coffee thermos came shooting out when just bending over to pick something up off the ground.
All in all, I still really like this bag.

I am a college student who was looking for a fun looking backpack that could hold my books or clothes for if I go out. The bag is comfortable and super cute! I love it.Want ful Unisex Adult Superstition Daypack Discount?
I bought this to make a bug-out-bag for my husband, and I really like it. It is sturdy but not very heavy I bought an expensive backpack before this, and really hated the thing because of its weight. The open pocket on the front is very handy, it is roomy and the front pocket is functional. I painted the logo letters over with a black permanent marker and it looks very nice now. What''s not to love.
Gaiam 750ml Aluminum Water Bottle (The Green) Save 54% off
And has no insulating properties. It does keep the water in and doesn''t leak, but it get''s hot or freezes up easily.
The design seems to be some sort of high-tech sticker which looks very difficult to come off.
VERDICT: BUY IT (if less than $5)
(Thanks for reading my review..)

Sigg Baby Water Bottle (0.3-Liters)
After lots of research, I purchased my kids each a Sigg cup and a Klean Kanteen. While I like the LOOK of the Sigg cup better, I am so disappointed with the cup''s performance. We haven''t had these cups more than a couple of months and all ready there are dents and chipping paint. I know it has this "leach-proof liner," but I wonder how well it works when the cup is dented. My son''s cup I can''t even give him, as he is only 1 and I worry that he''ll bite it and injest some of the chipping paint. I am so shocked that these cups get such great ratings. While I''d definitely buy another Klean Kanteen, I would never, ever buy a Sigg again, especially not for a young child. My daughter is older and more careful with hers, but even hers has a couple of spots where the paint is starting to wear. She does love her cup, a 20oz Sigg and will be so disappointed when I wind up tossing it. Sigg cups are so expensive. I expected that it would last for years, not merely a couple of months.
I was concerned that these are not meant for the dishwasher, and I was skeptical of the claim that they only needed rinsing. It''s absolutely true. I bought some special cleaning tabs and I''ve used them only a few times always when traveling and some sort of juice has been forgotten for days. (It''s so easy to clean them out this way warm water plus cleaning tab, 30 minutes later it''s brand new inside) Great for lunches or backpacks, no glass to shatter or plastic lining to transfer taste. Can''t live without them now.
Buy Sigg Baby Water Bottle (0.3-Liters) Now
I purchased one of these in each size for each of my 3 children, and while the product met my expectations quality wise, this is not a great item for a baby or toddler. My youngest is 15 months, has no problems holding the bottle or drinking from it, I would recommend if you are buying this to get a pouch, as when filled with cold liquids the container itself is very cold to hold. She really likes the bottle and the only reason I won''t buy her another until she is older is that the flow from the mouth piece is fast and very "airy" she is swallowing as much air as she is liquids, causing her to "choke" on it a lot. I like the fact that with the lid on and cap closed this bottle is spill proof, and even when left open and on its side very little liquid will leak out. Overall this is a great product, but more for kids who are a little older. (3 or so)Read Best Reviews of Sigg Baby Water Bottle (0.3-Liters) Here
These leak proof, durable, fun, easy to clean bottles replaces the sippy cup and lasts forever! They are more expensive, but they cannot even be compared to plastic bottles or cups.When traveling, it is not always easy to clean sippy cups this one only needs to be rinsed with hot water. Great for kids who want to be independent but still need the protection of the "sippy cup" concept. The loop for the screw on cap allows easy attachment onto luggage or a carabiner. Many designs to choose from, for kids and adults too!
Sigg Switzerland Aluminum Bottles are a "JetWithKids" recommended product!
Want Sigg Baby Water Bottle (0.3-Liters) Discount?
When I found out about the BPA deception from SIGG, I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt. I went ahead and shipped back my old bottles to SIGG, at my cost, for an exchange. I have friends who just threw their bottles away because of their distrust of SIGG. Over a month later, I received an e-mail with a gift code to order replacements. The replacement order and customer service was a fiasco. It took several e-mails, phone calls, and over 3 weeks to resolve.If you aren''t aware of the scandal, all SIGG bottles before August of 2008 have BPA liners. When SIGG was asked during that time, if their bottles or liners contained BPA, SIGG reps carefully worded their response to assure the public that their bottles did not. It wasn''t until SIGG quietly released their new liners and an investigative report revealed their lie, did SIGG finally come clean. Patagonia, the outdoor company, was lied to in their face by SIGG. Patagonia was so upset by SIGG''s deceit, that they returned ALL SIGG bottles, including ones with the new liners, back to SIGG to be recycled.
Not only are SIGG bottles not as safe as everyone thought (including Oprah), but the company itself has burned the trust of consumers and retail partners with their deception. Fortunately for us, real BPA-free alternatives do exist. I personally own 2 Camelbak plastic bottles that use the Tritan material, which is BPA-free. If you want metal bottles, Camelbak makes them with medical grade stainless steel. Klean Kanteen also uses medical grade stainless steel but does contain nickel and is also made in China, which apparently a lot of people have a problem with. Personally, I''ll be trying the Klean Kanteen bottles soon.
Knowing what we know now, I cannot imagine anyone trusting this brand or company again. I certainly am through being a supporter and customer. If you want more information, feel free to Google "SIGG BPA" and you''ll be inundated with negative press. The number of articles speaks volumes of the outrage SIGG has caused. Be safe everyone!
Profile Design Sync Hydration System 2 Bottle Belt
This is my first hydration belt that I have purchased. I have been avoiding them because anything I''ve tried in the past bounces and I can''t stand it for very long.The belt is entirely made of velcro so you don''t have that issue of the last few inches of the belt hanging in mid-air. I have a 33" waist and either the large or medium would have been just fine. I bought the large as the store I bought it from didn''t have a medium. Yes, I could drop the weight of the few extra inches but its not really a big deal.
The water bottles stay put and DON''t bounce, even with only 1 oz in them. They each hold 8 ounces. I can remove either one one handed. It was a little tricky learning how to insert them while running, but I''ve found that I can rotate them in the holders to find the right spot.
**Note the stitching on the velcro separated from the belt, exposing a little bit of the material underneath. The store I''ve bought it from said it was an isolated issue and they''ll replace it, but I have yet to get the 2nd one and see if it has the same issue.**
MLB Minnesota Twins Blue Stainless Steel Water Bottle
Order this for my son. He loves the fact that it doesn''t leak and that it has favorite MLB team on the bottle. The draw back is you have to unscrew the lid to drink and it is a big opening. He often spills when drinking.
Cage Rocket Storage Bottle Blue/Silver Metallic
this is my third. although i have had the lid break off of one, they are sturdy, and roomy little storage containers. i suppose you could always sut use a large mouth water bottle for storage if you want to, this bottle look sgood and matches the color scheme of the bike.
WaterU® FreshSip Filtered Water Bottle
WaterU is a brand that I imagine no one has ever heard of. That makes it harder to trust to buy, but makes the prices lower. I was deciding between this bottle and the Camelbak Groove.****Comparison to other bottles:****
In the past, I owned a Bobble. No problems with leaking, but the sound it makes while refilling air became absurdly annoying. Not to mention how rude or uncomfortable it would be to take more than one sip in class or in the library. I think the sound got even louder with use. And my biggest issue is that when I was really thirsty, I would have to drink, wait, drink, wait, drink, wait...
I did some research to replace the bobble (it was filter replacing time anyway). My choices were either to get another bobble or get a brita or get the popular (on Amazon) Rubbermaid bottle. The Brita was out because everyone said it leaks, it''s just a matter of how much. I almost fired away and got the Rubbermaid after the great reviews, but then I sorted by date and realized pretty much every recent review complained about the new design of the filter that causes it to not filter some water and/or leak.
So I dug deeper than the big 3 and found the Camelbak Groove, the WaterU FreshSip, OKO H2O Advanced, and Aqua Vessel Tritan Filter. The last 2 were too expensive at $20-25 for a brand that I don''t know and for little reviews, plus I probably wouldn''t spend that much even if it was made by a well-known company.
So it came down to the Groove and the FreshSip. The Groove would be $17 for 20oz or $20 for 24 oz while the FreshSip is $7 for 24 oz. I have a camebak Antidote reservoir with an in-line filter for backpacking. Again, it''s a filter not a purifier, so I could fill at a potable tap and just get better taste. The filter is a slim carbon cylinder which looks just like the one they put in the groove. The groove apparently has the bite-like rubber mouthpiece just like the reservoir. On a reservoir, a bite valve makes sense, so you can suck water when you want to and not have if drip out at other times. If you really want to, you can also close the chamber. However, on a bottle that you can just close and open a flip straw and isn''t sitting on your back, the bite valve is a little overkill. Reviews were complaining about the force needed to suck water out. So for the reasons I laid out, coupled with the higher price (over double!), I figured I''ll get the FreshSip and worse comes to worst, I''m out $7+tax.
****Bottle Details:*****
I received the bottle and proceeded to wash it out and run water through the filter like you do with any other carbon filter. The first time I drank from it, I still got some carbon bits in my mouth, but it''s non-toxic so it''s not a big deal. The bottle is hard plastic so it feels a lot sturdier than my bobble which always felt ready to break (though it never did). The straw with the filter pretty much reaches the bottom, so you don''t have any unreachable water. One of the pictures on here and the wateru website shows blue in the middle of the bottle, as well as the cap and filter. Apparently that''s an older model, now the bottle is clear and only the cap and filter are colored. Also according to WaterU and/or "DSC" (I guess the company behind WaterU), the new filter filters 40 gallons (about 200 bottle refills) instead of 20 gallons (100 bottles). After dealing with their quick and courteous customer service via email, it turns out that they''re sending out the new bottles and filters even though the tag that comes with the bottle says 20 gallons. I thought I got the old bottle, so they sent me a new one without me even requesting it, and when I got the new one, I realized it was the same as the one I ordered. They confirmed that indeed they''re shipping out the new ones on Amazon, just the insert that comes with the bottle says 20 gallon even though the filter is actually 40 gallon. Definitely 5* in customer service.
*****So the actual bottle REVIEW:*****
Here''s what really makes these straw bottles (or at least the FreshSip) better than the other ones. Because it''s upright, it means they can design another hole other than the water hole for air to go in as you suck water out! No more waiting for air to fill the bottle in between sips!!! The hole is surrounded by a piece of rubber (like an o-ring) and when you close the straw, a little peg in the side of the straw goes into the hole to block it from leaking and indeed it doesn''t leak. So you can''t drink with the bottle upside-down (why would you want to?), but you can carry it upside-down when it''s closed without a problem. The sucking has a little more resistance than a normal straw, but it''s really not tough by any means. I would say drinking a Jamba Juice smoothie has more resistance than this bottle.
No leaks, no noise, no waiting for air to refill, easy to drink, and inexpensive. What else can you ask for?

Whether I''m at the gym or on the go in the car, this is the perfect water bottle. It fits perfectly in any cup holder, hence my mentioning the gym (treadmill bottle holders), which doesn''t accommodate my Nalgene. But I can literally tote this with me around the city; to the local zoo water fountains, at the mall while shopping, etc. I fill it up and the water tastes great because it''s going through the filter. I know I''m getting clean water. I don''t have to worry about taste or a water source because it''s going through a filtration system before it gets to my mouth. Best yet I can take it through the airport empty, fill it when I get through security, and I don''t have to pay $5 or $6 for a bottled water. No violations of too many liquids, and I don''t get robbed at the airport convenience stores!!! If I knock it over it doesn''t spill out through the spout either. Grips great and easy to clean. This is a great gift too, especially for campers! I highly recommend it.Read Best Reviews of WaterU® FreshSip Filtered Water Bottle Here
This water bottle is great! Easy to use, easy to clean, water tastes great, bottle is fairly cheap compared to other filter bottles, and the replacement filters are also cheaper compared to other brands! On the label, it says that 1 filter can do up to about 100 fills. At this price and quality, it''s worth it to get as opposed to continuously buying packs of 24 water bottles. And you''re saving on plastic bottle waste! What''s not to like? Give it a try!EDIT: I have used it daily now for several weeks. I''d like to add that I''ve dropped it about 3x on tile floor and carpet, and it hasn''t cracked or leaked. Also, I bring it with me to school everyday and place it in the water bottle pouch/net on my backback. It doesn''t leak or spill no matter what position it''s in (especially laying down)!

I just wanted a simple water bottle with a straw that would fit in my cup holder. So I didn''t want to pay extra for something fancy. I found this one was not only reasonably priced, but had the bonus of a water filter, so I decided to buy it. I use it every day and it''s exactly what I needed.
Sigg Monster Family Water Bottle (Purple)
I have tried a lot of different sippy cups for my daughter (18 months) and hadn''t found one she like until we got her this Sigg bottle. It''s light enough for her to hold, easy to drink from and it doesn''t make a mess. Plus, it''s really adorable. It only got four stars because it does chip if dropped and, since it''s made for kids, it''s bound to be dropped.
Bushwhacker Shasta Black - Insulated Bike Water Bottle Holder Save 50% off
GREAT Product! My grandchildren and myself love it. It''s a Water Bottle that goes into a case. So easy to put on (unlike all the rest that you have to screw on, etc.) Just velcro it anywhere you want on the bike.Will definitely order more for others who ride bikes. Great item and reasonably priced. Couldn''t be happier.
That being said, the water bottle it comes with isn''t quality. It doesnt have good suction so when you drink, a lot of air comes with it, making the drinking experience the opposite of pleasurable.
The velcro strap that secures the water bottle is very nice and allows you to put a variety of bottles in the holder instead of the one it comes with.
I highly recommend buying this if you are looking for a good holder. If you are in it for the water bottle, get something else.
Buy Bushwhacker Shasta Black - Insulated Bike Water Bottle Holder Now
I''ve been looking for a water bottle holder for my Brompton folding bike. This one looked pretty decent, and it was at a good (i.e., inexpensive!) price.It arrived VERY quickly, and the packing was just fine. I quickly put it on my Brompton, fastening the vertical loop of rip&strip tape around the handlebar and the horizontal one around the stem.
It works fine. With only two attachment points, it does sway a bit. If I use this regularly as a bottle holder on this bike, I''ll wrap a toe clip strap or something around the bottom for a little extra stabilization. Note: you would NOT need this if you were fastening it to your belt or carrying by hand. And you wouldn''t need it if the little bit of swaying it does doesn''t bother you. I just like a little bit of extra security.
I didn''t go over any big bumps in my test rides, so I don''t know if the water bottle would pop out if I did. There is a rip&strip strap at the top of the holder that might be useful in cinching the bottle in a little tighter. That''s not quite as good as a drawstring, but it would probably help.
I did try my Kleen Kanteen bottle in the holder. It''s a little tall for it, but I think it would work in a pinch.
