The UV cleaning concept is great, and for a cheap option this works well. You can use it much longer than a normal water bottle between cleanings, so long as you use the US feature every once in a while. Where a normal water bottle will turn into a bacteria and microorganism jamboree, ruining the taste and possibly having health impacts, this water bottle will keep it tasting good. Now for the bad part: The actual touchscreen used to control everything is very difficult. Usually it has to be clicked multiple times just to react, and when you have to triple tap it to get the UV light going it can be a pain. If you tap it gently, and make each tap about 1 second long it will generally work better. Still it can take multiple attempts to get it working. I personally would've preferred a cheaper and easier to use button, or simply a more responsive touchscreen. I would certainly recommend this to anyone who wants a water bottle that can stay clean without being washed every 5 hours, and who doesn't want to spend thrice the price on a more expensive alternative.I bought this waterbottle for a trip to Africa and ended up not needing to use the filter part at all. It appeared when I first bought it that the UV light worked, but the sensor part was quite annoying and sensitive as sometimes I accidentally tapped it and the automatic timer turned on and beeped loudly, and other time I tried to tap to zap the light and it didn't respond.Once it ran out of battery (lasted a couple of weeks), I set it up to charge, but it never did. Not sure if that was the charger or bottle issue, but I am not sure how reliable the product is.I really like the water bottle overall, but I bought it for the UV light and it no longer comes on.The product is a great idea, but it was difficult to get it working. Actually I never did. Returned immediately.This bottle so far is the best out there. It has three features. It will tell you the temperature, it will remind you to drink, and it will clean your water or bottle. It is easy to use and manipulate. Drinks stay hot for a very long time and cold even went out in the sun all dayFits in my bags drink pocket perfectly. The functions are very easy to use by just tapping the lid. I have had for about two weeks and the battery is still almost fully charged. The cleaning aspect is good, especially with COVID going on.Great bottle love it keeps my drink cold over night and. I feel good with the uv light cleaning my water and bottle!!!I love it! Bought 1 for me and my sister, they are the last bottle you will ever need! FANTASTIC!
