CAMELBAKBPA Free Eddy Kids' Outdoor Cycling Bottle

My kids (4 and 2 - Both boys) have been slowly destroying their drinking cup collection over time. We have bought cheap ones ... expensive ones ..... all very different in their execution but essentially a plastic bottle (BPA free in some cases) with a straw solution and a lid of some sort. These cups are a world apart. I would say they are middle of the road in terms of price (Circa £12 each) But they are excellent. Make no mistake this is the best cup your child will own. The main body of the cup is a nice solid plastic with great deco art. The lid and strap solution is great. When you flip the spout up to close it seals the straw tight which means zero leaks. I will report back in 2 or 3 months to see if that holds true. The bottle is a sold feel and it would appear that the manufacturer has not compromised on build quality. Unlike other cups everything fits and is tight. Its top rack dishwasher safe and my kids love them.The best thing is that I can order replacement parts if they do get lost of destroyed.My summary is as followsLook 10/10Build 10/10Durability - Yet to be proven (21/11) but I would say 9/10Overall 10/10Buy this cup

Great water bottle! I bought an adult version for myself and loved it so got one for my son and daughter. The kids love these bottles and are drinking so much more water since getting their Camelbaks. They are easy to clean, have good designs, the straw design is great, they don't leak and are very sturdy. My son and I have both dropped these on many occasions and they are unscathed. Would highly recommend x

This has been in daily use for 12 weeks now and no problems. It is easy to clean (comes to bits easily and simple to re-assemble). Three year old can operate it hapily and now has far more interest in looking after this beaker (whereas others regularly got left behind). No leaks - it works! Worth the extra money for reliability and knowing that spare parts are available if required.

I got this as a child's bottle and it is bulletproof. Sure you can get a rubbish "sports bottle" from the pound shop but it will be impossible to clean, or break the first time it's dropped, or worse, be unusable because children cannot get enough suction on the spot. This bottle is perfect.Only gripe is the rubber spout can occasionally become dislodged and result in a leak when tipped over. The larger versions don't have this problem. Probably due to using stiffer rubber which isn't suitable for children.It also doubles as a milk bottle with a flexible rubber teat fitted over it!

Brilliant water bottle for children. My nearly 4 year old daughter has gone through several water bottles and all have eventually degraded after a relatively short time- chewing the straws, dropping and smashing the bottle, unable to thoroughly clean the straw, leak etc. So far this is our second camelbak bottle. Purchased one for nursery and one for everyday use, at home and out and about. Its quite large, but easy for my little one to hold and open the straw and close herself. Doesn't leak! the rubber straw feels very durable and replacement straws can be purchased (great for chewers!) We only use this with water so not sure how it would hold up with juice. The straw can be removed fairly easily but is a little tricky to clean just because of the tiny valve at the end. I run warm soapy water through it to clean and flush with fresh water - this would be particularly important with juices. Bottle itself feels of great quality, This has been dropped a few times and so far survived without so much as a scratch! The internal straw can be removed although we have kept it in place and not found a need to tip the bottle to reach the last dregs. A great size to hold enough water for a day out. Come in a variety of prints and designs to help encourage little ones to drink and also recognise their own bottle out of so many at preschool! Recommended.

All 3 of my kids have these (in different styles) and have been using them since we got the first kid his 4 years ago. Robust, easy to keep clean, and easy to drink from. Good volume too. Lost a couple along the way but otherwise never had to replace one. I have bought a few replacement nozzles as the younger kids have chewed them and split the silicone but a set of 4 is £10-15 so much cheaper than new bottles and I think I've only bought 1 set in 4 years for what is now 3 children.One word of warning if taking on an aeroplane, unscrew the lid a little to release pressure before flipping the nozzle up, otherwise you'll get a nice shower as the pressure inside will push the liquid out out! Same applies if driving to a high altitude. We regularly forget this little point!

We live a Camelbak in our house and these quickly became reliable staples for the school run and home water bottles.Positives; they come in fab designs from plain colours to more intricate designs. The bottles themselves seem to withhold a lot of wear and tear with little sign of damage or scratching. I’ve even been able to customise the bottles with vinyl for the school bottles. They go through the dishwasher well and can be broken down for cleaning. Also there is a lifetime guarantee on the bottle (excl wear and tear)Negative; The bite values don’t seem to last too long and cost £16 for a pack of 4 to replace or £6-7 each. This is nearly half the cost of a new bottle! They are very easy to fit though. Just make sure you click them in properly otherwise wate pours out. You learn quickly.I love these so much I’m in the process of replacing all our kids bottles to these. Expensive but invaluable

Think the bottles look great, but have found on my kids using these for about a week, that the bottles have started leaking. Found the initial problem as the seal had come out. Since then I have found it had been leaking around the rim area. Checked the seal but it was fine, so not sure why this is happening. Annoying as I have twin girls so it certainly wasn't cheap
