Swell 17 oz London Chimney Bottle SALC 17 B14

Beware of chipping/peeling paint, though!

I was very wary buying this product since i know there are a ton of comments here speculating about whether these bottles are authentic S'well products. I ordered the Blue Granite version, and when I received it, it did indeed have the unsightly seam that others spoke about (and was significantly lighter than the advertised product on the S'well website). But the biggest clue was the logo at the bottom- I have another genuine S'well bottle and i compared the two. The one on this bottle was different, having an unfilled dot on it. Initially I thought this was just a re-branding (my bottle is from an older collection), but when I looked at the bottle on the S'well website, the raindrop at the bottom is indeed completely filled. Compare the two yourselves! The image of the product I've received is attached, and if you Google S'well bottle in blue granite, you can see the official website's picture of what the bottom of the bottle looks like.

Bought this as a gift but the lid is wonky. Disappointing as too late to return it in time. Looks cheap. Very obvious, should have been spotted in quality control.

Ordered through Amazon's website seamlessly.Arrived on time. Package was intact. The water bottle was packaged appropriately and was undamaged.Easy to follow instructions on how to care for the bottle.I am happy to say that it does keep items cool for at least 6 hours - I haven't managed to keep any liquid in there longer!I haven't tried hot liquids either so I am unable to attest to how long it keeps liquids hot / warm for.The colour was as advertised and is a crisp white. It is stylish and sleek. It fits in most holders in the car.Would recommend to friends and/or family.Would purchase again if needed to.

This is my third bottle and I bought it for a gift for a friend who is doing a pilgrimage walk in Spain. My first bottle was purchased two years ago, a 750 ml size, intentionally for my hot yoga classes. It's brilliant for that and subsequently, I travel everywhere with it. The paint is durable, not a scratch on it. I subsequently bought another brand a year after, a 1 liter Shoi, although it keeps hot and cold as long as the Swell, but the paint is really chipping off and showing every scratch. I will buy a smaller one for my handbag and it will be another Swell. Well worth the money, go for it.

These are the bottles which made this market really explode. Reusable bottles are a great thing - as are vacuum bottles and this really does keep your drinks hot/cold as advertised (hot for about 12 hours or cold 24 hours). However competitor brands are producing much cheaper alternatives - you are paying a premium here for the design which in my opinion is not unreasonable, but if you are going to buy a very plain one you may be better off elsewhere.
