after having had a cheap water bottle leak throughout my backpack i went looking for one that wouldn't and bought one of these. pretty happy with it and just bought a spare.

looks like the bottle is white in the photo but it's actually clear
CamelCamelCamel.
If it's clicking, just close the lock on the cap for a bit. I hear that while using one in my car sometimes and that's my solution.
I'm a daily user of 3 of these bottles (training and racing on Zwift, plus I take one to work). It says I bought them from that link on Amazon Australia in January 2023.
They're fine. I wash them in the dishwasher. It's a little fiddly because under the lid there's a small part that comes out for cleaning, so you end up washing them in 3 pieces (bottle, lid, small part). I put the small part and the lid in the cutlery rack.
One warning: make sure you screw the cap on tightly before use. You'll be squeezing the bottle to take a drink, and if the cap isn't tightly on you can get a bit coming out the sides and onto you. Keep that up and you'll have no problem. I've had Camelbak bottles of a previous generation that were built simpler without the small part, but these work just as well.
Great bottles, also backed by lifetime warranty. I had a broken part of the lid after disassembling it for cleaning.
Filled out the form and received a response within 10 minutes saying they are shipping it out.
Yeah I like this bottle, definitely worth the $1 from a previous deal. The sphincter sometimes clicks for a few minutes after using it though, gotta give it a squeeze to stop it.
