SHOKE Collapsible Water Bottle Soft Silicone Portable with Leak Proof for Sports Traveling BPA Free 19/25 Ounce

I really wanted a collapsable second water bottle for a backpacking trip. This was a LOT cheaper than the ones at REI so I thought I would give it a try. The design is awesome and exactly what I wanted: it has a clip that goes right on my backpack and when unfilled weighs pretty much nothing. Once I filled it though I noticed the water tasted like pool water - very chemically. I was about to send it back when my husband suggested letting it soak in soapy water. I did this and the taste was much better so I did it a second time and the weird taste was pretty much gone (not totally gone, though I expect it will soon be totally gone). I love the bottle and the price. Some reviewers said it doesn't hold up over time which I've noticed lately that there are a lot of cheaper products on Amazon that die or break after 30 days and there is no help from Amazon after that so it's a risk. But so far my experience with this product has been good.

It's so portable. I hated having tumblers that would take up space in my bag and were heavy. This is wonderful when collapsing and carrying around. If you intend on traveling with it full, there's no issue there either.It's pretty leak proof and the only issue I have is drinking from the lid; I often get pockets of air.

We owned this for about a month and a half. Too late to return it. It has somehow got pin holes in it and leaks all over. When you squeeze it, water sprays out of the sides of the bottle like a shower head. It's like the material just wore thin or something. We only used it once a week. I also don't like how it doesn't stand up unless mostly full and even then is very floppy and leans. We got it for my son to use when playing goalie for hockey. He can't leave the top open and lay it down or it leaks out the top and his hands are in pads and his head behind a cage which makes it difficult to open the bottle. Was hoping he could leave it open and he just had to aim and squeeze. This product is not what I hoped for.

Glad I followed suggestions to have a collapsible silicon water bottle, especially for a long flight. I like that it has a strap to keep it rolled up when empty. I’m am picky about how my water tastes and after a couple uses, found there was no strange taste at all. Was surprised that the cover took up so much room however.

My son loves this - got it for a camping trip where he has to pack super light and small. Will let y'all know if it survives the trip, but so far, it's a hit.

First bottle had defective nipple, but contacted seller and they quickly sent me a second bottle. Having trouble getting plastic taste to go away.

We bought these to take to the airport for an international flight. They're perfect and easy to carry around! Would buy again!

Chemical smell and chemical taste that wouldn't disappear for weeks even tho it was washed many times. Please do not buy this product as i am suspecting that this product is not 100% silicone and has harmful plastics mixed in.
