Great for ice, but too big by M. Stewart (Port Charlotte, FL)  3 Stars
September 17, 2009
This is great for ice, but too big to actually drink out of. I recommend using the straw assembly with it. It is too big for my purpose, but would work great as a camel pouch for an avid outdoorsman or athlete. It sweats so it needs insulated to keep things cool/warm. I fill mine half way and freeze it overnight to put in my cooler. When going out with the kids, I freeze it and take it with us instead of buying water.

Easy to Transport and Great Taste by D. Jansen (Illinois USA) 5 Stars
June 22, 2009
I've been using mine 4 days a week for about 4 months now. Each night I fill it 1/4 of the way full and then put it into the freezer. In the morning I fill it up another 1/4 of the way and take it to work where I have cold clean water all day long. I'm impressed by its strength and amazed to see it has survived the repeated freezings.
Pros:
Clean taste - no plastic or other imparted tastes.
The size is large enough to hold a lot of water, and the shape is easy to put it into my laptop bag without people noticing.
It's durable, but I don't expect it to last forever. Given the heavy use, and repeated freezings, I'm quite impressed.
Cons:
The mouth uses a heavy wide thread and wont work with caps and spouts from other water bottles.
I haven't found a good way to clean it. The mouth is too small to get a brush in there. Instead I rinse it out and put it in the dishwasher, hoping the heat will clean.

Cool! by Ceac (Missouri) 5 Stars
May 30, 2009
Simple, durable, and very cute. I bought these for my kids to take to their sports activities. The Platy is lightweight and has lasted over a year now. Only drawback: the mouth of the bottle is pretty small, so it's hard to do more than to rinse out the inside.

very bad ad. by Jack R. Watkins (Haleiwa, HI USA)  1 Stars
May 29, 2009
This is one of the Biggest Con Jobs I have ever experienced on Amazon.com. The company is Mountaingear and they show, in their ad, a canteen and holder for $7.95. Then they charge $8.90 for shipping and don't send the holder. The ad shows the holster and bladder, but they only send the bladder, which weighs about 1 oz. In the fine print, it says, bladder only,
but that is hidden in another location. The picture shows the Holster and bladder, in two colors. I will never, ever, ever do any busines with Mountain Gear again. They should be made to wear masks and hold a gun on you.
