FAQs
Is the Owala FreeSip bottle safe for hot beverages?
The Owala FreeSip is primarily designed for cold beverages. While it can hold hot liquids, it is not recommended as it may reduce insulation performance for hot drinks and could create pressure inside the bottle. Always exercise caution with hot liquids.
How do I properly clean the FreeSip bottle?
The lid is top-rack dishwasher safe. The stainless steel cup should be hand-washed with warm, soapy water. Ensure all parts are rinsed and allowed to air dry completely.
What does 'FreeSip' refer to?
FreeSip is Owala's patented spout design, which allows for two ways to drink: sipping through the integrated straw or swigging from the wider opening.
Can I put ice in the bottle?
Yes, the wide opening makes it easy to add ice cubes. For best results and longest cooling, fill the bottle with ice and cold water.
What is the capacity of this bottle?
This specific model has a capacity of 700ml, which is equivalent to 24oz.
Is the bottle truly leak-proof?
Yes, the Owala FreeSip features a leak-proof lid, making it reliable for transport in bags or backpacks without the risk of spills.
What materials is the bottle made from?
The bottle is constructed from triple-layer, vacuum-insulated stainless steel, and the lid and spout components are made from BPA-free, lead-free, and phthalate-free Tritan plastic.
Troubleshooting
Bottle not keeping drinks cold for 24 hours.
Ensure the lid is tightly sealed. For maximum cold retention, pre-chill the bottle with ice water for a few minutes before filling with your desired beverage. Avoid leaving it in direct sunlight or excessively hot environments for prolonged periods.
Difficulty sipping through the straw.
Check that the straw is properly seated in the lid and that there are no blockages. Ensure the spout mechanism is fully open. Rinse the straw and spout area with warm water.
Lid is difficult to remove or reattach.
Ensure the threads on the bottle and lid are clean and free from debris. If the bottle is very cold, allow it to warm slightly before attempting to open. Do not force the lid.
Water tastes metallic or has an odor.
Thoroughly clean both the cup and lid according to the care instructions. Use a bottle brush for the interior of the cup. Ensure the bottle is completely dry after washing.
Carry loop is loose or not locking.
Ensure the loop is fully extended and properly seated in its locked position. Check for any debris that might be preventing it from locking securely. Contact customer support if the loop is damaged.
