So now that I've received it...I'd like to give it a review.
Pros:
Durable, simple design, slender enough to fit into backpack water holders
Cons:
The texture is a huge flaw. The finish feels like a nail file. Putting your mouth on this is like licking a chalk board and if your tooth touches it, you'll feel violated.
The threads for the top to screw onto the bottle are poor and takes a little messing with to screw on in a hurry, and if it's dry, the bottle will make terrible screeching metal sounds when closing.
Overall it's not bad, but I would have only paid $25-30 for something of this quality and design.
