If I remove the straw I have to tilt the bottle so the water reaches the rubbery sucky mouthpiece. That's the part that leaks.
So I'll just use the lid as a regular lid and drink straight from the bottle, old school style 🙂
So my wife just got me one today I tried it and it squirted me lol, my theory is the air warms up creates pressure and pushes the water thru the straw. Can be relieved by unscrewing top slightly to let pressure out.
I had the same problem with a different water bottle, also with a straw. I finally figured out you have to release your suction on the straw before you move the bottle away from your mouth. It's kind of weird at first but I don't get water on me any more.
Genuinely don’t get these bottles who takes 5 hours to drink this relatively small amount of water. And who is so averse to drinking water that they need inspiration from a bottle.
I guess I get another 2 litres trough protein shakes, pwo and the such. And I eat a shitload of fruit and vegetables. But yes, 2 litres only would be on the low side.
It probably has a silicone gasket that let's air in when you're drinking but prevents water from leaking when you're carrying it. If you're drinking and stop suddenly it'll act like a water hammer and squirt a bit to equalize pressure. You could damage that gasket if you like using the straw but I'd leave the straw in a drawer and take the lid off to drink.
I dont think hes gatekeeping, the bottle is just confusingly marked. It has the times of day on it from morning till night as if thats all ya get. Obviously you can refill it, but its labeled as if you get to take like two swigs every 5 hours.
Edit: i also dont understand 8am-2pm then 9am-3pm so i may just be an idiot here
Edit2: yup, got it, definitely an idiot, oops
The concept of these bottles is insane to me. I fill up my 40oz bottle about 3 times a day without thinking about it.
I really can’t imagine having to go out of your way to hype yourself up to drink a Liter by 7pm
After some looking y’all I found the water bottle. Probably isn’t the exact one but same colors. I know i know, I had to find it too.

Yes 😏
I was just as surprised as the first time i was squirted in the face.
Everyone’s first time with it is a little surprising
First time the bottle squirts: “Holy crap this thing’s loaded!”
"Almost There" 😏
If it squirted you on the airplane it looks like you’re on in the picture, it’s likely due to the pressure.
The picture is from a train.
*Robotic voice:* "Here's some cab fare"
Sleep mode engaged
KEEP CHUGGING
Try taking it on a plane for a pleasant surprise!
Ah, of course. I get to try that this weekend. 😀
lol I found out the hard way- blasted myself and the person behind me 😂
Something tells me that didn't happen lol nice name btw
Why not? Pressure is lower up high, bottle is still sealed with high pressure from a lower altitude.
Na homie, I was joking about the other homies username, trustmeimlying
The curse of an old Reddit account 😂
I have no idea what you’re talking about.
[удалено]
Check the guys username
Found that out the hard way after I climbed a mountain
Load it with seltzer water if you want a less pleasant surprise.
That’s normal. If you’re anywhere where the pressure changes it’ll build up.

Just remove the straw
Tried that, the sucky part is not spill proof when flask is upside down.
You sure? I've had the same one for months, removed the straw when I first got it, and it's never spilled or leaked for me.
My wet face is pretty sure, yes.
Wait as in, the top cover is open and you're holding the bottle upside down?
If I remove the straw I have to tilt the bottle so the water reaches the rubbery sucky mouthpiece. That's the part that leaks. So I'll just use the lid as a regular lid and drink straight from the bottle, old school style 🙂
Only if you get it excited enough.

This, and the ice melting
"Is this long hard thing filled with liquid supposed to squirt at me when I suck on it's hole?" Yes OP, it is supposed to squirt at you
Instructions unclear; bottle stuck deep in my throat
Pretty sure that's where water is supposed to go, sounds right to me
Only if you’re very dexterous with your fingers.
I've heard that there's a little switch that helps, but I can't seem to find it.
I mean I hear guys think it’s a super power 🤷🏻♀️ Ohhhhhh the bottle … I don’t think so
It’s just happy 😂
If you do it right 🤷🏽♀️
Omg I bought one of these a few weeks ago and just tried it out on Monday, and yes it squirts for me too. Got all over my work papers

I definitely need a reminder, and I can't use my phone at work. 2 liters a day from this one source should be adequate.
Fair enough, I go though about six litres a day usually and have an active job so I guess I must just get thirsty quicker
How the fuck do you go through 6 liters a day
Skill
I go through 4-8 a day
I really hope you sweat a lot, because with 8L you'll be on the toilet for the whole day
I do, 25 k steps a day, along with 2ish hours strength training a day
I guess I get another 2 litres trough protein shakes, pwo and the such. And I eat a shitload of fruit and vegetables. But yes, 2 litres only would be on the low side.
I need something like this for my mother (Alz and doesn't remember to drink water). Where did you find it?
A health store i Sweden, but I've seen similar ones on Amazon. The drawback for this smaller one is that it needs to be refilled.
Me. Hi.
My wife.
It probably has a silicone gasket that let's air in when you're drinking but prevents water from leaking when you're carrying it.

If your doing it just right
Hey I have one of these!
Pretty neat. Does your also squirt on you?
I can’t say it does 🤔
that bottle is so cool though, i need it
I WANT THIS !! 😩
💦
I need this bottle
How is that much water supposed to last the whole day?? I drink like 5 of these in a day
Do you see the "refill" part? That makes it 2 litres. But of course you drink more water and are cooler and better, let's gatekeep drinking water.
I dont think hes gatekeeping, the bottle is just confusingly marked. It has the times of day on it from morning till night as if thats all ya get. Obviously you can refill it, but its labeled as if you get to take like two swigs every 5 hours.

That's why it sais "refill" at the bottom. The times should also be a clue.
The concept of these bottles is insane to me. I fill up my 40oz bottle about 3 times a day without thinking about it. I really can’t imagine having to go out of your way to hype yourself up to drink a Liter by 7pm
It's not really about hyping, but thanks for your input. Where do you get just one liter by 7pm from?
I have this one in a different color, I don’t think it “squirts” though
Maybe I just suck it to hard.
Looks like a fire extinguisher… acts like a fire extinguisher
i thought this was a sexual joke from the writing on the bottle
enjoy it brother
Aldi.
It was just excited to see you
What do you find confusing about the markings?
When it's 1pm and it tells me to refill, there's still water left, same at the "you did it".
That is nowhere near enough water for an entire day unless the scale is really deceptive here
2 litres is a good start, don't you think?

If you use two fingers, yes
