LOL, I've had a 42 oz for years. It's been dropped countless times and is banged up and dented to hell and back. Still works flawlessly. How TF are you going to say that a stainless steel insulated water bottle is "weak"?
I had a bottle for years and it got beat to heel and worked great. However, one day I noticed it lost its vacuum. I contacted them via email and they honored the lifetime warranty with no hassle. I paid like $6 shipping to get it to them and I had a new bottle in 2 weeks. Great products and great service, IME.
We have 8 or 10 different sizes and shapes of these that I've collected over several years. Several are not in very good shape with lots of dents and dings, or even a couple with most of the whole bottom pushed in. We have a couple that have tumbled down stairs. We always wash in a dishwasher which I think you're not supposed to do.
I recently did a test on each of our thermos bottles from several brands, including all our Hydro flasks. I filled them all with the exact same temp cold water. I sealed them all and left them on the counter for most of a day. At the end I checked the temps with a thermapen and they were basically all the same temp as each other. There were slight differences in the different brands depending on how well insulated the top was, or even the size of the top and there were some differences maybe due to the overall size of each.
The only thing that makes a thermos type bottle stop working is getting a small hole in the bottle which lets atmospheric air into the vacuum chamber. You can tell when this happens because the outside of the bottle will feel warm or cold, like the liquid you put inside. I have never had a hydro flask brand bottle fail. So far the only ones to fail have been Thermos or Camel Bak, but only after years of abuse.

These bottles look good but are very weak. Their customer service is also useless and doesn't honor warranties. I recommend kleen kanteen for more durable options or yeti

Basically they were complaining that the bottles dent when dropped.

Can confirm my kleen kanteen 1L got rusty on the cap and in the bottom of the inside. Dents and scraped super easy. Bought from kleen kanteen site. Their customer service was good though. No problems with the hydro flask my wife has.
It seems to be these five colors that are discounted to 40% off: Starfish, Snapper, Seagrass, Rain, and Olive. The discount appears to apply to all these colors regardless of bottle size (from what I've gathered). If you're looking for a certain size of bottle, then you may as well seek out these colors. Also, if you find the "boots" or lids in these colors, then they should also be discounted to 40%. You may as well grab one of those accessories to push you over the $30 threshold for free shipping. 😉

glad that you "LOL"ed ... interesting sense of humor
And by other bottles I mean non double vacuumed ones. Last few years I've picked up whatever was cheapest and they have all worked.
