Ello Port 40oz Tumbler with Carry Loop & Integrated Handle, Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel Reusable Water Bottle, Travel Mug with Leak Proof Lid & Straw, Perfect for Iced Coffee & Tea, White

I was on a search for a new water bottle after knocking or dropping my old one so much that the lid was cracked, water would just pour out if dropped and it even cut my foot! I needed a water bottle that had a lid that would not easily break. I wanted one with a side handle for easily picking up to drink but also thought the top handle would be great for carrying. This one has both which makes it so easy to carry around everywhere like I do. It's not too heavy and you can close it to have the straw on either side. I like the straw feature - it's easy to take apart to clean and keeps my water cold. My lipstick wipes right off of the straw too. I usually fill it with ice water at night and then fill it up during the day and there is usually a decent amount of ice to cool the fresh water. I was going to decorate it with some stickers but just put one vine sticker and I think it looks cute. I did unfortunately drop it the other day (no clue how I managed that with two handles) - I was getting in my car to go to work and it rolled under my car. There are some scratches on it, but the nothing broke and no water poured out. I'm sure it won't be the last time I drop or knock it over. The water of course will pour out if the straw is facing down but I even tested it with the straw removed and not a drop! I would definitely buy this one again.

I bought 6 of these as gifts because I love mine. Every picky person thought theirs was perfect! It has a comfortable handle. It's large so you don't have to keep refilling. It has a matching straw - that you aren't forced to use. Without the straw, it is leakproof! It keeps cold drinks COLD and if you are like me, hot drinks will unfortunately take a long time to cool down. It also has a strong carry handle. It's easy for even kids to clean. It's also easy to travel or camp with because it fits in the side pocket of a back pack and will not spill or leak.

I wanted to give this tumbler a couple of weeks of use before writing this review and I am so pleased to say that this was exactly what I needed and exactly as described in the Item Details section. I purchased the white so I can have a neutral canvas if I want to personalize the cup. Compared to other tumblers, both popular/expensive and dupes/cheaper, this is a lightweight but still sturdy alternative that I think is a better value and an overall better bottle. Even though I don’t like ice cold water I decided to test out how long the tumbler would keep it cold. After 8 hours it was legit as cold as it was at the beginning of the day!And now the whole reason I bought this particular tumbler… THE HANDLES!! I have been searching high and low for months for a tumbler that had both a side handle and a top handle. Though I’d seen other tumblers with top handle attachments, they were for larger sizes (64 oz and over) and they were too bulky and heavy for daily use. Enter the Ello 40 oz. tumbler with top and side handles!! My favorite part of this tumbler is the top handle because it folds down and snaps into place so it feels more secure than having a separate handle attachment. This makes it so much more versatile and functional because you have two effective ways to carry the tumbler. In the runner-up spot is the truly leakproof seal once you remove the straw. That’s probably my one suggestion for improvement: make a side loop to secure the straw for when you need leakproof protection. Or make the top with an leakproof folding straw that comes on some of the other Ello tumblers. Additionally the cup is super easy to clean! I hand wash mine because I like to keep my daily-use items in the best condition I can. My only advice is the same that I would say about any similar tumbler: make sure you clean and rinse the crevices and air dry the tumbler separately from the lid so that you reduce the likelihood of mold or harmful bacteria growing between the leakproof seal.Bonus: it fits in my car’s cup holder, my backpack’s side pocket, AND my desk’s cup holder! So many others are typically too narrow for my other tumblers but the Ello fits in nice and snug into all of those spaces.So glad I made this purchase!! And if you want to jazz up your cup there are so many good color options. If you’re on the fence, get it!! It’s been great to me thus far.
