The bottles are made of 18/ food grade stainless steel. The lid is all plastic but does not contain any BPA. The wide mouth opening is good for ice. However, I've had problems with liquids leaking for the lid. When I contacted their customer service, they immediately sent out 2 lids. One of the original and one screw on type that is leak-proof. I tried the original replacement lid and had leaking problems too!! I was really disappointed because this bottle has a large diameter that doesn't fit into your car's cupholder. Instead, it is critical that the water bottle be leak proof because it is going to on its side in travel. I've tried to keep it upright in the car, believe me, but it always falls.
These is a non-removeable silicone piece that helps keep the bottle insulated from the elements.
It doesn't have a button or anything you can press to open the bottle, you manually open the lid.

This is the replacement lid that is leak proof due to the nature of screw on lids. I prefer not to use these lids because they take so much longer to open, but the bottle itself is so great, I may put up with it anyway!
Verdict? It's a great bottle aside from the leaking. It feels really solid and keeps my liquids cold. I love that the bottle sweat as the single layer stainless bottles do. Be aware, the bottle is wide and those with small hands (me and any ladies out there) may find it difficult to hold...but you get use to it, I promise. There is no weird taste in my water and the lid does not impart a plastic odor as some other bottles do.
Purchase on Amazon.
