Standouts
  • I love mine. I'm drinking water instead of soda or fruit punch, and it's cheaper than Propel.
  • The selection is massive — truly a flavor for everyone. Fast shipping and great customer service.
  • It's a decent product and the flavors are pretty good as long as you don't mind artificial sweeteners.
  • Great product especially if you are not a fan of plain water. Really helped me increase my daily water intake.
  • Keeps ice all day (11+ hours)
  • Clever FlowState lid with three positions
  • Dishwasher safe
  • Fits most cup holders (Tesla-optimized)
  • Lifetime warranty
Watch-outs
  • It's also a little noisy when you drink from the Cirkul Water Bottle. Not a huge deal killer but noticeable.
  • I am experiencing lack of flavor — I had to turn my cartridge to almost max to taste anything.
  • Leaks when tilted, not safe for bags
  • Dents and chips easily from drops
  • Heavy when full (40oz ~2 lbs)
  • Expensive relative to performance (half-price alternatives available)
