Perfect travel companion for clean water!
I already had the 25 oz and loved it, but wanted the smaller one to use for travel. Hotel water, water fountain water at the airport, etc. all tastes so clean and great after tapping the button for a cleaning cycle. It's pricey, but makes all water taste so good. Hope I never forget it on the plane!

amazing water bottle
LARQ is one of those unique products that works and make sense it does what you expect when it it comes to water bottle that keeps your drink cool and hot if you wanted to, everybody is very familiar with YETI water bottle, i have few, and i use them for 5 days a week, LARQ does pretty much what YETI can do and more! having a water bottle that keeps your drink cool and even sanitize it is one of a kind. LARQ is the first thermal water bottle around that kills bacteria 99.9 (from what they claimed), purify and clean your water bottle as well. the lid is equipped with UVC light, not very familiar but its what help kills all that bacteria we might have on our water or bacteria thats been living inside your water bottle, i believe the inside of the bottle is design for the light to bounce off the surface so the UVC can kill and purify your water. i find that such a neat and helpful product that gives you the extra protection you thought you might not need. ive notice when you use your standard water bottle (yeti) after a week you can definitely tell that its start to build up some kind of smell, which it from what they said is the bacteria, well ive tested LARQ and wow mine did not smell, and still haven't at until now. i believe the reason for that is because this water bottle does an auto cleaning cycle every 2 hrs, so you will never notice it. i fully charged my water bottle before i used it, and the cap have a micro USB plug for charging, LARQ also said this should last for 1 month, which i haven't had the time to test for that long the cap have button for you to press to purify your water, 1 press for regular purification, there's also adventure mode, if you enjoy being out hike/ traveling a lot and does quite trust the water you about to use to fill up the bottle, then yeah this is for your, knowing that LARQ will kill all the bacteria viruses that the water may have, is something that i think its such a useful thing to have. only thing i notice is that the UVC doesn't really purify the lip part of the bottle, mainly just the inside to clean the water, so meaning, you still have bacteria around the lip part, just like your other water bottle, that's the only part i do clean. also this bottle wont filter the water, it will only kill bacteria/ viruses. for people who enjoy drinking a lot of water, having LARQ could maybe actual help us from wasting plastic bottle. now you have more of a chance trusting someone's water and be able to purify it than buying another plastic bottle that is not even helping our planet, and produces more waste for us. i personally did try to avoid grabbing another plastic water bottle at work, and it work because i know LARQ will clean the water that i got from the fossett

Finally I don't need to worry about clean water
This was a great item for me and long anticipated. I camp and travel do making sure that I have clean safe water is a must for me. The bottle is a good fit and slips into my cars cup holder about like a 12 oz can would. It also looks nice and my coworkers thought it was pretty cool - which I guess is a plus. Charging time was about an hour and a half out of box and lasted for me at least a couple of days, I recharged as per instructions and it was a bit less than an hour. Specifics on how I used it: Sometimes my water bottles would sit in the heat for hours or over night and I'd worry about the quality and safety of the water, so would dump it out and go without water until I could flush and clean the canteen or bottle. I can honestly say, this keeps cold water cold for at least 8 hours in my car, haven't had the chance or need for hot water yet. I am looking forward to less worry when camping and on longer road trips now, knowing I'll not only have cold water, but clean as well.

A great bottle for camping and travel
I received this bottle minutes before leaving for a short trip to an outdoor festival in another state. I typically tend to avoid the tap water there as it tastes off to me and anecdotally gives me varying levels of gastric distress, and I figured it would be a great chance to try it out. The bottle itself feels like other high-end insulated bottles. It has a solid and premium feel to it, like a Yeti bottle. It charges via a micro-USB port on the cap (a cable is included) and the manufacturer claims that a charge will last 1-2 months running 3-4 standard cycles per day (or 10-12 days using Adventure Mode). And really, if there’s anything even remotely questionable about the water that you're putting in it, you should probably be using Adventure Mode, which is a 3-minute, high powered cleaning cycle that the company claims kills over 99.99% of harmful bacteria. Standard mode appears to be less for cleaning water, and more for cleaning the bottle, killing off the kind of bacteria that might begin to grow over multiple uses, causing odors and mold, keeping it pristine without needing to be scrubbed every couple of uses. I don't see how it's possible for it to clean the rim of the bottle though, where your mouth would be making contact, as it screws down on that part when cleaning, so you'll probably want to clean that yourself every so often. The bottle will run a standard cycle for self-cleaning every two hours. In theory, you could keep the same water in the bottle for weeks without worrying about the possibility of mold growing in it. In my use case, it turns out that the "off" taste in the water at my traveling destination doesn't have anything to do with bacteria. I could run as many adventure mode cycles as I wanted and it didn't make my morning coffee taste right. Filtration is needed to remove minerals and chemicals like iron and chlorine. However, I used it religiously, both at the place I was staying at and at water fountains onsite and had no gastric issues over the four days I was there, so if the water happened to be picking anything up on its way from the treatment plant to the faucet, I'm fairly confident the Larq was successful in killing it off. In fact, Larq claims to be able to make any water free of harmful and odor-causing bacteria so long as it's clear, with no cloudiness or sediment, which might make it perfect if you're hiking or camping near a natural water source or traveling internationally. I plan to be packing it along for any trips I go on in the future.

A water bottle perfect for everyday usage!
I got this water bottle last month and I am still just as in love with it as I was when I first got it! Not only is the design super sleek, it's also super lightweight and easy to carry around. I love how it self cleans your bottle using the blue light which is a huge plus for college students. I would highly suggest getting this for yourself or a friend . BTW the color is STUNNING!!!!
