Pogo 40oz Plastic Water Bottle with Lid

I have been through TOO MANY water bottles in my life. The plastic ones shatter when dropped, the metal ones dent when dropped, and they're all just so easy TO DROP. And the LEAKS! I can't even tell you how many puddles I've caused from toting my water bottles around with me on the daily. I bought this water bottle for one reason: the PRICE. I was not looking for a good water bottle at the time, I guess because I stopped believing they were out there in the world, so I bought a cheap one assuming that it would have some kind of design flaw or break when I dropped it in a couple of weeks. I was WRONG! This is, hands down, THE BEST WATER BOTTLE I HAVE EVER OWNED. I have had it for over a year now, and I tote it with me on the daily, always on the move walking from class to class on a large outdoor college campus. There are THREE things that make this the best water bottle in the world: 1. It is HARD TO DROP, even for me! I just hook my finger through that little bendy hooky thing up top, close my fist, and that sucker stays on me! I walk everywhere with this thing, and when I'm holding it through the loop, it is basically UNDROPPABLE! When I'm drinking from it, the little hand indentation up at the top of the water bottle is a very comfortable fit, and even when the bottle is full and heavy, it feels very balanced. 2. WHEN I drop it, it DOESN'T BREAK! Let's face it: I am forgetful and clumsy. There are times when I don't hold the bottle the undroppable way. There are times when the bottle is sitting on my desk and I accidentally swipe it off. There was even this one time when I threw it into the air and then failed to catch it. But through all these drops, this bottle has not cracked yet. And a couple of my drops have been when the bottle was fullish. That being said, I haven't had TOO many major drops (thanks to the bottles undroppableness) so I wouldn't try pushing your luck with this one. But alot can be said just from the fact that this bottle has survived a year of daily use with ME, a certified water bottle destroyer. 3. IT DOESN'T LEAK! This bottle has something that's hard to find these days: A TOP THAT ACTUALLY WORKS! I have NEVER experienced a single leak with this bottle - NOT EVEN ONE! I throw my bottle into my bookbag all the time, with precious lecture notes and expensive textbooks, some of which are rented and must be returned, and I can do so with FULL CONFIDENCE that my water bottle will not leak on them! I'm not talking the side pocket of my bookbag, I am talking in the main zipper with all of my other stuff. I make ZERO EFFORT to be careful when the bottle is in my bookbag. All day long that bookbag bumps into desks, walls, people, gets turned upside down, gets thrown on the floor, sat on, turned upside down, etc. This sucker doesn't leak. And that's it. THREE things that go into making the PERFECT WATER BOTTLE. This water bottle also has the added benefit of having a killer price (I was happy to pay the price I paid for it even when I was still assuming it was nothing special). It also holds 40 ounces of water, which is kind of a large amount of water compared to most water bottles. I bought this bottle with ZERO EXPECTATIONS, and it has turned out to be one of my favorite buys from Amazon to date. It definitely sparks joy in my life! Thank you, Pogo water bottles. You have created something of VALUE.
