Owala 40oz FreeSip Sway Stainless Steel Tumbler

We are an Owala family! Even the grandparents have joined the club. I love the new sway style with the independent handle and tapered fit in cup holder. Of all the ones purchased (10+) we have never had leak issues unless the lock or handle cover wasn't used and button on spout was engaged. That is user error. Its the best bottle on the market in my opinion and I wouldn't waste money on others. Actually anyone want to buy a few used Stanleys?

Owala finally took their FreeSip and put it on a tapered bottle that fits in cup holders! I first got my two 24oz FreeSip in 2020 when Owala was not even popular and could only be ordered online directly through them. Then I wanted a larger bottle to be able to hold more ice & water so I got the 32oz FreeSip which I love but didn't like how it didn't fit in cup holders although it never leaked laying on its side in the car. I didn't want to get their tumbler because I don't like an exposed straw and they weren't leak proof. Finally Owala came out with the 40oz Sway which is perfect for me- fits in the cup holder, has the FreeSip, is completely leak proof and my 24oz Owala bottle boot fits snug. I have the boots on all my Owala which has really helped protect it from further dents & scratches on the bottom (which occurred prior to the boots coming out). The 40oz Sway is heavy when filled with water and ice but the bucket handle is so much easier and ergonomic to carry versus the version with the side handle. The only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars is that the Sway doesn't keep as long as my other FreeSips most likely due to the larger opening (from what I read and because the large lid is not insulated). Otherwise the FreeSip is the best invention, the lid and bottle are very easy to take apart and clean because it doesn't have a lot of hidden crevices. I just wished these were more affordable so more people can experience what a great water bottle this is. I even hesitated buying this for a few months since I have so many bottles (some not Owala) but I always said if Owala came out with this style a lot earlier, I wouldn't have needed to buy any other bottles!

I love the capacity and multiple ways to drink. The spout cover is great for keeping dirt or flying things out! Since it’s a larger capacity it is a little heavy and without a side handle can be difficult to grab. I still love it!

This was dented. I took all of the stickers and tag off and it doesn’t sit right 😭

Leaks pretty badly. This would be a water bottle that always stays upright and you would have to hold up in the car if you’d want water everywhere.

Love it! Would definitely buy more.

The website shows “sleek” as a black, gray and white color and that is not the color that was given. Target is thankfully fixing the issue for me though. I hear these cups are great. Excited to try!

Great large water bottle. I love that it fits in my cup holder?

Love it! Bought in store - but looking at other reviews I see they must have fixed the pictures cause it’s def white in the pic and in the store.

super big, lasts me the whole day. Fits in car cup holder

Great water bottle. Can’t wait to bring it to the beach with me!

Love that it fits in a cup holder and the ergonomic handle.

I love the design and how easy it is to wash. 4 stars because it doesn’t keep my ice from melting for as long as I wish it would . Max time I’ve noticed it keeps ice is 4 hours.

Perfect size, so lightweight. Fits in cup holders, love the covered lid and the locking feature. Handle is great, love taking this on walks. Would love more colors: purples and blues.

I love Owala, love this new design that fits in the cupholder, has a lock to prevent spills and the 40oz so I'm getting in my water for the day!

I ordered this product because I saw another reviewer say the product is actually the top handle (the version I wanted) rather than the one with the mug handle that is pictured in the product listing. It is still the misty meadow color way but the coloring in person doesn't match how it is pictured. It is more of a green tumbler with periwinkle accents. Overall I'm happy with what I received, I just wish the product photo was the correct version of the tumbler.

Definitely does not look like the picture. No shade of blue! It’s more like a cream color with a grey lid. Still great, just be prepared.

I love the owalas and was so excited for this new one. However, it looks NOTHING like this picture. It’s white not remotely blue. Do not be fooled like I was.

This isn’t meant to be a negative review, just an opportunity to get the attention of whoever is responsible for the product listings. The quality and design of Owala products is top tier. I am especially fond of the new Sway design. The issue I noticed is the pictures for this product listing depict the tumbler with a standard handle (like a coffee mug) but instead it has a bucket handle. I have tried ordering this product three times now thinking it was an error with fulfillment but it is the photos on the product page that need to be fixed. Hope this helps anyone else avoid and/or fix a similar issue. Happy to amend my review when the photos are updated. :))

What a great tumbler! It has it all, I no longer have to deal with spills! The FreeSip design allows you to sip or chug and even though the cap snaps closed, there is an additional lock. There’s double coverage! The colors are neat and there’s something for everyone. It fits in a cup holder, in the car, that’s something I couldn’t do with my 32 & 40oz Owala Bottles! I wish everyone could have one and see what they have been missing!
