To assemble, snap the carry handle into the designated cap spots, screw the antimicrobial collar onto the bottle, and top it off with the cap. As for what you can actually put inside, Chilly’s recommends sticking to temperatures below 194°F (90°C). This means that there’s less clearance between your fingers and the top of the cap, and we found that sometimes our fingers would bump against it.We can’t vouch for whether it affects the antimicrobial performance, though it doesn’t impact the cap’s seal. This narrower opening and soft plastic of the collar make for a super comfortable drinking position. This hasn’t caused any issues so far in our testing, but we wouldn’t be surprised to see it come off entirely at some point down the line, which can pose an issue if you’re on the road. The Chilly’s Series 2 is that kind of bottle, with countless colorway combinations that put the fun in function. The collar follows the curve of the top of the bottle, taking it from a wide mouth to a smaller spout.

Otherwise, there are only a few other scratches, though they’re not as visible as we’ve found on other matte bottles like the Purist Collective Mover. Get your questions about the Chilly's Series 2 Water Bottle answered from our team and the Pro Community right here on the page.

You can also pay extra to add your own eight character engraving, which takes the place of the logo.

Unfortunately, the silicone on our bottle isn’t attached very well and was already starting to peel off when we took it out of the box. The bottle held up well over our testing, though it did take a hit when we accidentally knocked it over in an uneven cement parking lot. We noticed that the collar and loop are a slightly different shade compared to the bottle, though it’s not surprising as they’re different materials. While stainless steel bottles are reliable for insulation, they can be pretty loud when you set them down.This could be from accidental tooth bumps, but it’s also possible that it got damaged during cleaning. We tested this bottle in a temperature-controlled room set at 68°F (20°C) to see how long it could keep water cold.

The gravel carved into a bit of the matte finish toward the top of the bottle, though we wouldn’t be surprised to see a similar scratch on any other stainless steel bottle put in a similar situation. If you overtighten, the cap attaches to the antimicrobial collar too well and comes off with it the next time you unscrew it for a drink.We’ve talked a lot about the style customization options for this bottle, so let’s break down what that looks like. Any bottle that’s nice to look at, comfortable to drink out of, and keeps our water cold is great in our books. Chilly’s addresses this by adding a silicone base so that the stainless steel never makes contact with whatever surface you’re putting it on. Though its performance may not be anything special compared to a Hydro Flask or YETI Rambler, the customization options add a unique flair to your hydration.
