I bought this since HydroJug no longer makes the bottles like this. The bottle is fine but the lid will only end up sealed when the spout is by the handle. There is no way to alter the starting point to make the spout go to another point.

Koda V1: Great transparent bottle but the bottle could be a little more sturdy (side walls too thin)
Koda V2: I think the material is improved but I returned due to the bottle NOT being transparent, when filling and drinking I like to be able to see the water level... I would suggest making a very transparent light blue bottle... I would buy that... Thanks

I had the previous model and, I must say, I’m pleasantly surprised by this one- better quality plastic, a washer/seal under the top to prevent leaks, and a stronger loop handle…very nice!

I've gone through so many water bottles of all different sorts and features. At the end of the day I just wanted a bottle that can hold a large capacity with a good handle to be able to carry it around efficiently. It won't keep your water ice cold like some other bottles can but then again, it isn't clunky or heavy to begin with. This is purely for someone like me who wants to keep around a large amount of water around at all times, doesn't want to break the bank, and doesn't want to lug around a heavy bottle that becomes even heavier once it's filled with water. I can deal with room temp water for the tradeoff in simplicity. No frills--just a man and his thirst for water.

This bottle is the perfect size for keeping me hydrated all day!
