Fjbottle Review
Overview
Most of the time on this website and our Youtube channel, we're focusing on the bigger name brands like YETI, Stanley, Hydro Flask, and Owala. But every now and then we try bottle from a lesser-known brand and are pleasantly surprised. Fjbottle fits in that category with their insulated bottle with a spout lid.
The combination of a rigid handle and a carrying strap makes this bottle much easier to take with you, even if your hands are full. And the anti-slip grip pad built into the base helps prevent scratches and small dents (though notably it does not protect the outside rim). Even though it's from a brand you likely have never heard of, if you're looking for an affordable bottle with a spout lid that pretty good at everything, this is a great option to consider. |

Fjbottle Mag FAQs
- Are Fjbottles dishwasher safe? | No, Fjbottle recommends handwashing only.
- Are Fjbottles good? | With an affordable price point and plenty of helpful features, this bottle is a great option if you aren't worried about having a bottle from a premium, household-name brand like Stanley or YETI.
- Do Fjbottles fit in cupholders? | Their 32oz bottles will not fit in most cupholders, so consider buying an adapter like our BottlePro Max.
- Are Fjbottles leak proof? | Yes, they are leak proof as long as the seals are clean and correctly installed, and the lid and spout cap are closed tightly.
- Are Fjbottles easy to clean? | Yes. They're fairly simple, which makes cleaning them straightforward.
- Are Fjbottles insulated? | Yes, though the insulation was fairly average compared to similar bottles.
- Are Fjbottles stainless steel? | Yes, they are made with food-grade stainless steel.
- Are Fjbottles durable? | Yes, to an extent. Stainless steel is strong, but the bottle will dent if you drop it. The lid is a fairly simple design that feels robust, particularly with the fairly thick rigid handle. The most likely place that this bottle may break is at the hinge, though it does not seem to be a major concern unless you drop the bottle on its lid while the spout cap is open.

As a bonus, check out our FlavorFuze Pod drop-in fruit infuser to make your water fun! Skip the soda or flavor pods with artificial sweeteners (like Cirkul) and add healthy flavors with natural fruit each day.

It comes with two lids. One is a splash-guard style lid that fits in wide mouth Hydro Flasks, and the other is a drop-in style lid that fits in nearly all wide mouth bottles (including Owala FreeSips, YETI Ramblers, Stanley Quenchers, Hydro Flasks, and many more). |
