Mainstays 24 fl oz Solid Print Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle with Flip-Top Lid

I originally bought this bottle in August 2023. It was surprisingly good for its price, way better than a name brand one that I bought a few months before. I dropped it a decent amount of times in the year or so I owned it. Since it was white, it wasn't looking very good with all of the visible dings. I had some Walmart cash and decided to treat myself to a new one. Unfortunately, that one would prove to be defective. The straw just wouldn't stay properly aligned so when I was drinking, it was like air was coming in. I returned that, and a few months later I got a new one, this time in blue. I don't know what is up with this thing, but I'd put a half tray of regular size ice cubes in it, and it wouldn't even stay ice cold for four hours! I never had that problem with the first one. I give up. I'll just use it until I find something different. Kind of a disappointment since my original was so good. I never used any of them for hot beverages.
