Yakuzzi Drink Holder for Kayaks, Easy Snap-On Installation Save 22% off
I purchased these for my wife and I. There are both going back tomorrow. The previous reviewer was right. The drink holder will not stand upright in a fixed position as shown on the web page. The bottle just swings in space and is real irritating when you are paddling. The holder is too small for a one liter wide mouth bottle which is what we prefer to use in our kayaks. It''s also too short for a bicycle type water bottle.
I''m leaving it behind my next trip.
Buy Yakuzzi Drink Holder for Kayaks, Easy Snap-On Installation Now
The Yakuzzi is exactly what the promotion says. It evens holds a water bottle bigger that what it says so I was happy about that. I''ve put my standard stainless water bottle,that holds at least 20 oz,into it and it fit into the kuzzi part just fine. (The kuzzi is the same size as kuzzis that are sold at most stores for plastic water bottles and beer bottles. As far as slipping down, I think that your kayak would have to have a lip of some sort to hold it from slipping, but it works great on my boat, AND you can adjust the angle up or down depending on the bottle size that you are using simply by tightening or loosening the draw string. *My only concern is that once clipped onto the boat, it is a little more involved than just reaching for your water bottle once you decide you want a drink. You either have to remove the bottle from the Yakuzzi or unclip the kuzzi part from the boat clip or unclip the entire thing... can be done but it will take a bit. I wish it could be made with a more permanent type bottle holder rather than just a kuzzi, then you could easily slip your bottle in and out of it while on the go.Read Best Reviews of Yakuzzi Drink Holder for Kayaks, Easy Snap-On Installation Here
I think this product is overpriced. I also don''t understand why it''s so highly rated. I figured because it allows you to (sort of) securely hold a drink/bottle in your boat without having to drill permanent holes to attach a drink holder. I think it''s flimsy and it doesn''t hold a bottle when it''s full, and the clips aren''t a secure fit onto the rim of the kayak cockpit. It wiggles around and gets annoying, in my opinion. I don''t see myself using this on a daily basis. I think a Nalgene bottle would be easier.On a positive note, it doesn''t come unattached from the rim, and it holds a soda better than a taller water bottle. Haven''t tried a beer bottle yet, buuuut I think that would end badly.

27oz Regular-Polished "Fill 2 Pure" Stainless Bottle
My traveling friends were using this solid, sleek water bottle labeled "Fill 2 Pure" in Australia, so I asked about it and found out it has a unique filtering system that delivers bottled water quality. While they use it everyday to get good tasting water, they said it particularly works well when traveling to places like SE Asia where you can''t trust the tap water.My friends are water freaks and claim the filter in this bottle is the best for removing contaminates. The filter can only be used for water -but not hot water or salt water.
The bottle top has a filtering system attached to it that is completely removed from the bottle by unscrewing the top. The filter cartridge at the base of the tube from to the top is replaceable by screwing it off. Based on the brochure, you replace the filter after 100 gallons. The manual included states the filter eliminates or removes 99.99% of bacteria and/or harmful contaminates using a Seychelle/BIOSAFE technology. However, the product website description does not claim it removes bacteria, just contaminants, and clearly states this filter is intended for municipal tap water. Appearantly, these bottles come with the "Seychelle Regular" filter, not the "Seychelle Standard" filter that also removes bacteria but is slower flowing and intended for use in the field by campers, bikers, etc.(Note: These stainless steel bottles are not recommended for the "Seychelle Advanced" filter cartridge intended for use in third world countries, including ponds or streams, to remove even more bacteria and viruses, because it has a very slower flow rate and needs a squeeze type bottle.)
To drink from this bottle you snap up a drinking cover cap (avoiding touching the actual spout with dirty hands) and draw the water up through the filter system, like sucking on a straw, with the bottle straight below your mouth or tilted out about 45 degrees below.
Before storing the bottle for a long period the directions say to flush the filter and bottle with chlorinated water and let it dry before storing it for as long as need. While you cannot put the filter portion into the dishwasher, the outside bottle can be.
I intend to also order another bottle to keep with my luggage that has a "Standard" cartridge installed so I never forget to take it on trips so I can get clean water. While the bottles I received in this order looked and felt exactly like my friend''s bottles, the ones I received did not have the "Fill 2 Pure" logo on it. Overall, the quality, lightweight yet strong feel of this bottle, particularly with the filter system, is well worth it.
Cool Gear 32 Oz Ez-freeze Water Bottle BPA
My friend got a similar water bottle from Wal-Mart and I decided to check out Amazon because Wal-Mart only has ugly colors. I found this one and it''s the same thing except it has the bonus of the freeze thing that can keep your water cold. I love it! I''m so excited about this water bottle and it''s simply fantastic. I would definitely suggest it to anyone who is looking for a great water bottle. The straw makes it even better because you don''t have to tilt the water bottle to drink out of it.

Best water bottle ever! Water flows very easily, has a very handy handle, nice grips, BPA free, EZ freeze center to keep water cold! What more could you want when consuming a lot of water.Read Best Reviews of Cool Gear 32 Oz Ez-freeze Water Bottle BPA Here
I love this type of water bottle. However, they are totally and completely worthless if I cannot purchase additional/replacement straws. UUUHHH!Want Cool Gear 32 Oz Ez-freeze Water Bottle BPA Discount?
I love this bottle! I bought one at a local store and wanted to get one for my sister. I was able to find more color choices online. This bottle is great for working out. I hate the bottles that you have to pop the top and then tilt, I just drink with a straw....so much easier at the gym! I recommend filling half way with water, then add crushed ice, then the straw goes right down through the middle. I do not use the freezer stick, i didn''t think it helped with keeping my water cold.
NALGENE Tritan 1-Quart Narrow Mouth BPA-Free Water Bottle
I''m one of those who continue to reuse the disposable water bottles until the wife throws them away. Using filtered tap water(Pur filter)with this bottle gives excellent results, great tasting water. I need a large bottle for the gym and this one does the job. Due to it''s shape it is pretty compact for its volume so it is not a chore lugging it around. Its a thick plastic so it does minimal job of insulating, much more so than the disposable bottles.
BPA-Free
Relatively indestructible (scratches kind of easily but never shatters)
Large capacity
Be careful, however, not to place it on the bottom rack of the dishwasher because you can melt the cap, which will make the bottle leak. As a side note, it''s difficult to find replacement caps for the narrow mouth b/c they''re not as popular as the wide mouth caps. The plus of the narrow mouth is that you don''t spill on yourself when you drink out of it. The con is that it''s difficult to fit stuff in the bottle like ice or lemon.
Buy NALGENE Tritan 1-Quart Narrow Mouth BPA-Free Water Bottle Now
Great bottle: light-weight when empty, very charming (transparency and color), narrow mouth suits perfectly to the human mouth and the price is so reasonable for a multi-use and multi-purpose container. A lot of people in the gym liked this bottle so much and many times I''ve been asked where I bought it along with what its brand is. The 5th star is missing because the first time I washed it -by handsome part of the logo tore off and the remaining is easily tearable. The mono-color measure prints on the back, on the other hand, seem durable because the technique they were printed differs from that on the front. Anyway without omitting the warning about the print issue I would definitely recommend this product to anybody interested in buying a handsome portable light-weight bottle. I''m happy to consume less plastic bottles and paper cups now. Please make your choice on BPA-free reusable products as much as possible.Read Best Reviews of NALGENE Tritan 1-Quart Narrow Mouth BPA-Free Water Bottle Here
This has been the best purchase for me. It is so much easier to clean and maintain than the stainless steel bottles I was previously using. Another plus is that the container is so light weigt (and durable) that it''s a breeze carrying 32 oz of water to school with me everyday. Also when I refill it during the day I can see how many ounces I''m putting into the bottle. Plus the narrow mouth makes it so much easier to drink from than their wide mouth version. Some people have complained that they are difficult to clean-not true. If you are a water drinker like me all you have to do is put a little soap in the bottle, fill it with warm or hot tap water and let the bottle soak for a few minutes (remember to scrub around the inside/outside of the neck of the bottle & inside the cap) then rinse out all the soapy water and residue. If you drink something other than water then after the bottle has soaked for a few minutes insert a bottle brush and swirl it around the inside to give it a little extra cleaning then rinse. Now that doesn''t sound too hard does it?Want NALGENE Tritan 1-Quart Narrow Mouth BPA-Free Water Bottle Discount?
I loved my blue narrow mouth water bottle, I bought it in pick so my husband wouldn''t steal it! It''s great quality, been dropped 2-3 times, no problems. No leaks, no funny taste, easy to rinse and clean. I bought some narrow ice cube trays to help with the issue of most ice cubs not fitting, but putting water in this and leaving the bottle in the fridge overnight works well, too.
Ultimate Performance AiraForce 2 Bottle Belt
This product is everything I was looking for. I always hated carrying drinks with me on my long runs and was looking for a product that would be easy to carry and at the same time provide easy access. This does everything I wanted. Adjustable belt allows it to fit comfortably around anyones waist. Doesn''t even feel like I''m wearing anything. It is so easy to just grab the drink container, have a drink and put it back in the belt. The pouch between the bottle holders is great for keys, money, gels or anything you want to put in it. It''s perfect!!
Intech Tri Trac 3-Wheel Pull Golf Cart Save 36% off
Got mine for a song at a local K''s merchandise, and it''s fine. It''s no pneumatic-spoked-tire Bag Boy, but you''re not paying that price, either. I''d prefer a "drink cup" to the special water bottle they provide, but that''s a small quibble. The pencil holder design is a little poor, as is the score card holder. As far as pushing/pulling the cart goes, it does nicely. The non-detachable, fold-under third wheel is clever and time-saving. I like this cart much more than this review comes across. As soon as I can make mine stop pulling to the left, I''ll REALLY like it!

Good price. Good quality. I used it few times for golfing. No problem. No brake, it means lighter weight, less problem to fix. There is always a way to keep it from running away. The bottle is bad but holder is good. I cut open the bottle side way, drill some holes and put a shoelace on it. Then I can put my thermos in it. The handle is strong, I put an umbrella holder on it with no problem. Assembling the cart is easy, but have to make sure every joint is securely in place.Read Best Reviews of Intech Tri Trac 3-Wheel Pull Golf Cart Here
I received mine yesterday, and these are my initial impressions (will update when I''ve used it a while).Packaging:
Looks good. It was solidly packed and there was no damage whatsoever.
Features:
On one hand, I take off a star because of features. If you play on a very hilly course like the one I am a member of, you will want to know that THIS CART HAS NO BRAKES. But for the price, I can work around it. Also, most cart manufacturers know that a golfer may need something to hold a beer can/bottle. Intech, apparently, does not. However, this is a $60 cart. Carry your own beer.
On the other hand, for the price range, I think it has a solid entry-level feature set (ball/tee/scorecard holder, folding cart, three wheels, decent materials). It folds with the cart on it and will fit easily in the trunk of my car (I have a Civic). I''m not really disappointed, although I do think Intech should consider adding brakes.
Quality:
I can''t answer this very well as it''s still new. I will say that the quality looked fairly good during assembly. The frame and wheels seem solid, and the parts were all in excellent shape post-travel. I tied my cart down on it with the provided straps, and it rode well.
There was a minor issue the bolt that attaches the front wheel assembly to the frame had not been deburred, and it had a large sliver of metal on it that happened to go right into my finger. Watch out for that...
Value:
This is where this cart earns its marks. For the decent quality and relatively good feature set, the price is exceptionally low. I shopped around for at least a week (amazon, ebay, a number of golf websites) and this tied with the Stowamatic for best price on a value three-wheeler.
Final:
I''m looking forward to years of use out of this cart. I expect to get three years at least.
EDIT: I''ve been using the cart for a month or so now. My thoughts now that I''ve had it a while:
It''s good quality for the money.
Like another review said, it does lean to one side (in my case, the right), though not severely. This can be lessened by pushing with my right hand rather than my left.
The lack of brakes is not as big a deal as I thought it would be. It did start to roll away once (it''s VERY windy and quite hilly where I live) but for the most part, it''s not an issue.
My course owner was upset I didn''t buy from him. But of course, the cheapest 3-wheel in his pro shop is over $100.
Glad I bought it.

I recently decided to purchase not one but pull golf cart for my brother whom i often golf with. I read most of the reviews and found this particular item by Tri Tech to have the most positive review. I recieved them within 5 days and they were very easy to assemble. They work great on the course with no problems. However the only downfall is the water bottle it comes with is very cheap and with the bracket that holds it in place does not allow to to interchange the bottle with one of your choice.Save 36% off
Vargo Titanium Water Bottle 650
Compared to the price and the quality of other hiking/camping/etc., products made of titanium (I''m thinking SnowPeak here), the quality of the Vargo Titanium 650 is not there at all. The one thing I couldn''t get over is the screw cap. There are four threads on the bottle and cap. The cap grips just 50% of the last thread on the bottle. There is no way I would trust the cap to stay on in my backpack.I am a big fan of titanium. Or maybe I''m just lazy and don''t want to carry any more weight than I have to. While this item is made of titanium and is very light weight, I recommend passing. For this price, I expect more than a chuck of titanium, I expect a product that will last a lifetime. This won''t. If SnowPeak can make quality titanium products for a decent price, Vargo should be able to as well.
I''ve returned my order.
and I order a green one some how delivered a black oneSure, nearly seventy dollars is pricey for a water bottle, until you realize that titanium imparts no flavors at all. You will never taste anything metallic, or deal with the hint of the different beverage you had in there yesterday. Combine that with a bottle that when empty weighs a mere 4 ounces and is completely bio-compatible and you have a winner! No need for any lining, so all concerns about BPA are eliminated. In a pinch you can heat water or soup in this bottle directly over the fire (cap off) and not worry about a thing. Drinking from this bottle makes your water taste cleaner, like drinking out of a glass bottle, but with a fraction of the weight, and the strength that should make it last virtually forever. It also looks very cool, with the word "Titanium" on the side, resulting in people asking me about it because you will not find this in most stores.
Sigg Traveler Touch Water Bottle (1.0-Liters) Save 16% off
This waterbottle is superb in quality and construction. But there are two caveats one must consider before purchasing. First, when you freeze the bottom half of the waterbottle to keep water cool all day long, the freezing process causes the aluminum on the bottom to expand slightly giving the waterbottle a slight wobble everytime you set it down. Also, if you live in a very humid area and love drinking very cold drinks, the aluminum this bottle is made of causes a great deal of condensation. All in all, this is a wonderful waterbottle for those of you that want something more than the typical Nalgene, its very classy and unique and it''ll definately last a very long time.
Buy Sigg Traveler Touch Water Bottle (1.0-Liters) Now
*****This is an upscale designer water bottle, top of the line, and so much fun. The designs Of Sigg''s water bottles are gorgeous, from the plain, solid color bottles, to the ones with intricate designs. They are simply beautiful! I switched from regular plastic water bottles because of health concerns, thinking it would take more work to maintain. These do necessitate regular cleaning (I clean mine every day), but having something so beautiful to drink from makes the cleaning fun. Sort of like my rings, glasses, and watch, I now consider my Sigg personal water bottle a vital accessory, reminding me to drink more water, making a statement about my values, and expressing myself with a special design. Yes, all in a water bottle!
Sigg of Switzerland water bottles are very high quality, made of light aluminum on the outside, slightly insulated, and covered with a special powder coat on the inside that prevents any leaching whatsoever, unlike plastic and polycarbonate water bottles. They are light, durable, and perfect for any activity. Well water tastes spectacular in these bottles, just like from the tap.
Sigg bottles come with several different types of tops. I bought the screw top because I don''t like sports tops, and I don''t mind unscrewing the top when I want a drink. It is totally leakproof, which is important to me. The top is pretty and can be hooked onto a carabiner. I get comments on it all the time, "What''s that? I love it!" The sports top version is ok; I just am not a fan, as I don''t feel like I can get enough water from the little stream from the sports top. However, for convenience, you might prefer it. For children, there is a cap-type top. All are leak-proof. If you are ever unsatisfied with the top, you can buy a screw top separately to fit your Sigg bottle.
Sigg makes their personal water bottle in .6L and 1L in this style. I have both. I use the .6L for sports activities because they are smaller. When I won''t have to carry the container, I like the larger bottle. Sigg also makes a smaller .3L bottle for children that is a perfect size for young people. You can buy Siggs in alternative sizes too, such as .75L, .4L (for kids), .6L, .5L. You can occasionally find this bottle in the 1.5L size, also. Search Amazon for the perfect size.
Pick a style and pattern you like, as this bottle is a personal accessory, and should reflect your style. The colors are vibrant and even prettier than they seem in the pictures on Amazon.
They are expensive, but they are so durable that you can plan on them lasting many years. I consider them both an accessory and an investment in my health, so they are well worth it value-wise for me.
Highly recommended.

This bottle is just what I was looking for ever since I discovered that nalgene bottles leached the chemical, Bisphenol-A. I remember the day I read the research on the chemical as I was sipping out of my nalgene. Ever since I have converted all my nalgene bottles to change containers. The Sigg Traveler Touch is the best choice in my opinion out on the market today. The design is sleek and the materials are high quality. It is so lightweight and I look forward to drinking out of it everyday and love looking at (I know I''m kinda of a geek). All in all I know I will stick with this company if I need bottles in the future. Go buy a Sigg and stay away from polycarbonate bottles!Save 16% off
Lock & Lock Polyethylene Terephthalate Water Bottle (30 ounce)
What a disappointment! I bought 8 of these bottles hoping to use them regularly. The information said that they are dishwasher safe. What a lie! I put them in the dishwasher before filling them and they all melted! I spent almost $50 on these and they are worthless. I want my money back!
Some other bottles (rubbermaid, etc) have a plastic strap that connects to the lid to cap it off. These can get in the way when you drink and after a short period of heavy use will break at the strap. This bottle on the other hand, has a very thick plastic cap that pivots. I have been using it for several months with no problems, and I cannot see it having issues anytime soon.
The cap has a seal built in, and liquid DOES not leak out of this thing. Ever. The body is a thick rigid plastic. It can bend a little bit, but its pretty robust.
Best of all, because these things are only a couple bucks, you can buy several. This is nice because if you always have it with you, you don''t have to fret over losing it.
All in all, exactly what I look for in a water bottle.
Buy Lock & Lock Polyethylene Terephthalate Water Bottle (30 ounce) Now
I really like this bottle. I use it every other day during the warmer months, alternating it now with the larger one Lock & Lock polyethylene terephthalate Water Bottle, 40 ounce so one is always cold.According to Amazon I bought this water bottle in 2008 (neat feature there) and it''s still just like new. I still have the label on it, maybe I should post a photo of it sometime.
I hand wash only, I''ve used it in the freezer many times, I''ve dropped it -though not when it''s been frozen --, many times. It''s really easy to clean, easy to pop the top and take a drink, easy to hold, easy to fill. I haven''t had any leaking issues or problems with the top not closing. When I freeze it, I leave the top popped open so i can add more water without having to pry off the cover.
Most important to me though is I''ve never had a problem when the water in the bottle has warmed up. In other water bottles (the kind meant to be frozen, and other BPA free bottles, I''ve tried many of them), when the cold water gets even just slightly warm and I drink it, it gives me a stomach ache.
That *does not* happen with this bottle, or any of the Lock & Lock bottles I''ve bought, and that''s a big relief.
All in all, I really like this bottle. I bought the larger 40 ounce one, and the 24 ounce (Lock&Lock 24-Fluid Ounce Bisfree Handy Sports Water Bottle, Tritan, 2.9-Cup) as well. Great product.

I purchased the bottle because it is BPA free and I have a tendency to leave my water in the car in hot and sunny Florida. I have been using the bottle for a few days and I freeze the liquid overnight.I have had no leakage issues but I wonder if everyone is completely closing the lid. I notice that there is a small click and then as you continue pushing the lid clicks again fro the seal hence the "lock" and "lock". I am betting the leaking complainers are not pushing the lid entirely down.

Very impressed with this water bottle. Keeps drinks cold for hours. Nice design allows for easy access (no drip holding upside down while still open) and a locking mechanism.
