Kor one hydration vessel Sep 03, 2010
Best water bottle ever. Love the futuristic design, I get compliments all the time! Very good for going green, saving money on all those plastic water bottles!

Form Over Function Aug 30, 2010
One glance at the "KOR ONE Hydration Vessel" and you know why this thing is popular. Almost all of my friends and coworkers have made a comment about its stylish design; sometimes random strangers even approach me and tell me how cool it looks! No doubt, carrying a KOR ONE is sure to draw a lot of attention; however, there are a few major problems that I find quite unacceptable given the relatively hefty $30 price tag.

First, this bottle sweats. A lot. Filling the vessel with cold liquids will create a drippy sheen of condensation on the outside. A coaster is required if you plan to use it on your table or desk, and you certainly don't want to place any important papers near where you set it. Puddles WILL ensue!

Second, while the mouth of the KOR ONE is wide enough to accept ice cubes, I find that the opening is much too small for mass insertion. If you're like me and you have an ice dispenser on your refrigerator, good luck trying to fit the falling cubes through a hole the size of a half-dollar. This means that ice has to be put in one cube at a time: a rather inconvenient hassle if you're used to wide screw-on lids.

Third, the carrying handle is somewhat uncomfortable for large hands like mine. There's only really enough room for two fingers: two fingers to distribute about 1.5 pounds of water-weight (when it's full). This doesn't seem like much, but it gets quite heavy if you're carrying it around all day at, say, an amusement park. (I remedied this by tying a string around the two loops, which I can adjust and hold to my liking.)

Last, if you plan on buying the KOR ONE: Special Edition, be aware that the graphics are simply painted onto the outside of the vessel. Yes, it looks good in the official product images, but in-person it is an entirely different story.

When it comes down to it, the KOR ONE is beautifully built, maybe even a little sexy. However, when I pay $30 for a water bottle, I expect the thing to have most (if not all) of its kinks worked out. To me, there are simply too many problems for the price; it's up to you to decide whether it's worth all the recognition you'll receive.

(Also, my hinge cracked after about two months of everyday use. That part does seem a little fragile, but I'm not sure if I received a defective version or what. Beware!)

Loved this water bottle...until it broke! Aug 27, 2010
I bought this water bottle in May and fell in love with it. Didn't leak, looked great & got tons of compliments, stored a lot of water. Figured great at work and to tote to gym with me. I couldn't be any happier after tons of failed water bottles!

...and then today I used it at work, no problems. Then filled it before going to the gym, to see my bag that was sitting next to me in the car was soaked. Figured I closed the cap wrong and it was my fault. Then I get into the gym and go to take a sip - notice a crack by the hinge!!! I didn't even rough house with it, just casual everyday use!

I raved about this water bottle to the dozens of people who asked about it and wanted one, now I am just upset I spent $30 to only have it last for THREE months!! I feel kind of ripped off, very disappointed.

Pretty, but that is to me the best thing it has going for it Aug 23, 2010
First of all, this is probably the most aesthetically pleasing water bottle that I have ever seen, if this factor is a consideration at all when purchasing such an item. The first couple of times I used it, everyone was asking me about it, so it has definite merits as a conversation piece. After that, I have to admit that I was not so pleased. I had no use for the pithy little sayings that you can insert into the cap, and cleaning the bottle is a bit of a challenge unless you have appropriate tools to do so. The design was not that functional and is actually rather fragile - I find it too tall and narrow, so when I accidentally knocked it with my elbow, it tipped over immediately ,rolled off the table, and landed onto a wooden floor about three feet below. The impact was enough to put several cracks in the side of the bottle, and the cap snapped off and smashed into little bits. I have dropped other plastic bottles and none had broken before, much less quite so spectacularly. I would hesitate to say that everyone who drops their bottles will have a similar result, but it was rather surprising. For the price, however, I was somewhat disappointed.

Attractive. Great vessel, but expensive and flimsy. Poor support. Aug 21, 2010
I hesitated buying this based on the price for what is essentially a plastic, uninsulated bottle.
I must say, though, that it is the absolutely best water bottle I have ever used. Something about the way the opening is crafted makes taking a drink so very pleasurable.
That's about the end of the positive.
Mine tipped over on the counter after about a month of ownership, and the hinge area cracked. This really matters because it is constructed in a way that the hinge is under tension when opened, causing it to crack further, and if the hinge is damaged, it can not seal the opening properly when closed.
I tried to ask the company for any help considering how defective the vessel must be to break so easily, but I was told that they would only provide a small discount on buying a new bottle if I ordered one over the phone. Their Twitter "customer support" was worthless as well.
Don't let all their hippy crap about water awareness fool you. These cheap bottles aren't worth it. The awareness you should have is that you're going to pay a lot for a poorly made product.
