ZULU Goals 64oz Half Gallon Plastic Water Bottle with Straw and Time Marker | Large Reusable Jug with Handle and Leak Proof Lid for All Day Hydration, Gym and Outdoors, Gift Ready, Grey

Nice and big, doesn’t leak.
I got this to replace a different water jug that I had that not only leaked, but I also discovered had a pressure vent that was impossible to properly clean and grew mold. I don’t have any of those problems with this one. It’s designed well, easy to clean and doesn’t seem to leak at all, despite the simple flip-top design. I like that it has both a sturdy side handle with a rubber grip and a flip up top handle. The only downside is that it’s not insulated at all, but I suppose that also makes it lighter and easier to carry.

Good jug, but not perfect.
Zulu products overall are a little more smart in design than most other water bottles I’ve found over the years—their openings are wider for better flow, the designs are better thought out, and cleaning them is far superior to more complex bottles.The Goals half-gallon is pretty decent for all-day indoor use, if a bit obnoxious in size for an office desk environment—but that just means less trips to the water cooler and bosses like that. It has a printed readout suggestion to show your hourly consumption rate, a nice comfortable silicone/rubber-like grip inside the handle to get your hand through, and the nozzle while flat regulates a nice smooth flow to pour or drink from. The larger handle is also on the side from the designed nozzle’s horizontal flow, making turning it over to pour into a glass or one’s mouth quite convenient, as it works for left and right handed individuals simply by placing the cap on 90 degrees opposite of the preferred hand and rotating 180 (if you get it wrong, just try it the opposite way and you’ll get it).It also has a reliable lock to prevent accidental pressings of the snap cover lid Zulu has perfected with other bottles (it also makes a satisfying soft pop when you press the cap release and it taps the lid handle).Cleaning is a snap as you can fit an average hand inside the lid to clean out messier or sticky drinks, and the handle is closed off to allow a more solid build when picking up the bottle—it won’t collapse over time like other with hollow handles).You’ll remember the mention of “indoor” bottle—that’s because this isn’t an insulated bottle and condensation in a warm environment (say an average summer’s day) will make the bottle sweat madly and melt any ice fairly easily from sun rays as the jugs are transparent.There is a sturdy handle on the side of the lid that you would think would be able to support the weight of a full bottle—unfortunately, that doesn’t seem to be the case. Twice the tightly closed lid popped off when full, sending it crashing to the floor and spilling its contents (fortunately it was only water, but a quarter gallon or more flowed out before recovery).This handle should only be used when dealing with transporting volumes of half or less, but one mishap is enough to rely solely on the inlaid grip for transport (think gallons of milk).It lacks any sort of grip on the bottom of the base, but for carpets or desktops this shouldn’t be an issue.For those needing larger amounts of liquids or just want to save time from getting up a couple times, the Zulu Goals is still a solid choice, but would be best for those indoor users and can lift with the larger handle reliably. Overall, a solid product, but definitely needs improvement with the lid’s reliability to be picked up when full.

Good value for money.
Such a good price for the good quality and easy use of these bottles. I would buy again.

Leaks if not locked
Just recently bought it. My sons bag was drenched with water. I thought he may not have closed it properly. Then when I inspected it. I noticed it leaks.. the trick is there is a lock and unlock button. And hence the 4 star. Kids are not careful to do that step. Rest he still has to use it to see if it’s really a good quality.

Excelente calidad, súper macizo, no se fuga nada de agua, boquilla y mango de goma

Bem lacrado, não vaza água. Bonito
