This is a lovely vacuum bottle with an elegant shape and design. I like the lid design, particularly the way the lid for the drink spout is attached - the woven strap keeps the lid attached without the lid falling into your face when you try to drink from the bottle.

The small drinking opening makes it easy to avoid spilling while drinking.
