Nice addition to the BB family

I have a number of Blender Bottles and love them, but (1) the plastic starts to look a little grungy (even with daily washing) and (2) I want to start getting away from drinking from plastic bottles (any plastic), so I was excited to see this product. I read the other reviews and yes, the sound of the mesh ball is a bit louder but IMO, not terribly so and certainly not when there is liquid inside. It is metal so it will be louder. Also, you should know this is not an insulated container, so it won't keep your water colder any longer than the BB plastic bottles. Also, regarding the snap lid, the first couple of times I really had to press hard to get it to snap shut but after that had no problems and it's tight as a drum! My biggest sticking point is the price. I understand why it's more expensive, but still causes one to look twice, however will probably invest in another, if this one holds up. All in all, it's a nice addition to their collection!
