Bottle Movement PureVis 24 oz - Lightweight Self-Cleaning and Non-Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle with UV Water Purifier | Reusable & Travel Friendly, Black/Onyx

This water bottle is awesome, I don’t think I can go back to a standard water bottle after this. As far as a water bottle is concerned, the design is very nice. It is a good size fitting everywhere that I like to stow a water bottle. The padded sleeve at the base is wonderful. It is grippier than your average bottle and does not slide off of slick surfaces (airline tray table, etc). It is not insulated, but so far doesn’t seem to sweat. The main thing is obviously the self cleaning feature. So far my water always tastes fresh and the bottle never stinks and that can’t be said about the other water bottles I have from other major brands. The bottle is easy to use and charges quickly. I look forward to taking this bottle with me on all my future adventures and trying out the ‘adventure mode’

I gave this to my husband for a Christmas gift. He never washes his water bottles, so I figured this one would fit the bill for his water bottle requirements AND keep germs at bay so he can keep chugging. He thinks the self cleaning technology is really cool, and he made a joke about having to clean his water bottle and how that's a first world problem. Lol The slim design fits in his car cup holder, and the fact that there is no annoying straw makes my husband happy. I'm happier knowing that he isn't going to get sick from drinking from the same water bottle for months without washing it! Win-Win

The water bottle so far seems exactly as advertised and wonderful. I love having clean tap water that doesn’t taste like it came from the tap. I also like knowing that the added bacteria and viruses that the tap doesn’t filter out, particularly well, are taken care of. There is no smell that I noticed in the bottle nor the water that comes from it post-purification. The size of a bottle is 32 ounces in my model, and it is the perfect size for at-home water usage. I have not noticed any sweating nor leaking once the lid is screwed on tight. To wash the bottle, you can remove the rubber sleeve, and it is a very easy process to clean it beyond the UV lighting. Do not stick it in the dishwasher. This is not recommended nor safe. It says it can handle other beverages that are cold, but that will require more frequent cleaning, and only water is recommended. The bottle is very easy to use and only requires a 4 to 5-hour charge with the included micro USB cable. My only complaint would be that it isn’t USB-C nor is there an option to purchase a USB-C lid. This is clearly marked in the listing, but I still wish this was considered since it’s 2024. Overall, this is an excellent bottle for anyone needing basic purification from bacteria and viruses. If you plan to use this outdoors, just remember that it will not keep cold beverages cold nor can it handle hot beverages. The sizing is perfect, and it fits in cupholders wonderfully in my experience. The added grip is also much needed for a Butterfingers like me. Would recommend very much!

GREAT IDEA, WRONG PRICE!! (DOESN'T) INSULATE AT ALL, NOT EVEN A LITTLE. CAN'T BELIEVE HOW MUCH THERE'S ASKING ($99) FOR A BOTTLE THAT DOESN'T INSULATE!!! YOU CAN ONLY PUT THE SMALLEST ICE CUBES IN IT. I FILED IT 100% WITH ICE & WATER. SWEATS LIKE CRAZY AFTER ADDING ICE, YOU END UP WITH A PUDDLE OF WATER. READ ALL OF THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS, ALMOST ALL ARE TRUE!! I HAVE WATER BOTTLES HALF THIS PRICE THAT KEEP WATER COLD FOR 12 HOURS OR LONGED. SAVE YOUR MONEY 💵, NOT WORTH IT IF YOU NEED INSULATION!!!! I'LL BE RETURNING BOTH OF MINE, DIDN'T LAST 2 DAYS!!!

This is a great idea for a product and Larq obviously put a lot of effort into it. These are the most stylish water bottles I've ever seen--in all the various color combinations between the bottle itself and the non-slip sleeve. It's also very easy to use, with a simple and informative "user interface" of multi-color LEDs. Some things to be aware of: 1) Like all UV water purifiers, you shouldn't use it with turbid water--it's essential the UV-C rays be able to penetrate the water throughout the bottle to disinfect it properly. 2) The top cap, which contains the electronics, the UV emitter LED and the rechargeable Lithium battery is *not* water proof, so when you wash the bottle, you can't really submerge or wash the cap conventionally. I decided to use alcohol wipes on mine, as alcohol kills germs and evaporates quickly. 3) You should always avoid directly viewing UV light, as it can damage your eyes. To that end, the cap has a safety feature such that when you remove the cap from the bottle, the power level to the UV LED is reduced. This feature, though, works off of a light sensor--if the cap is removed from the bottle, exposing the electronics to ambient light, the safety is activated. Unfortunately this approach is not the most reliable in that if you take the cap off in subdued light or darkness, the sensor won't detect the cap is exposed and the LED will continue to operate at full power. I'd rather have seen a mechanical switch or magnetic sensor which would insure that no matter the ambient conditions, the safety would always activate if the cap is removed from the bottle. I glad this unit uses a standard Micro-USB charging port compared to some similar products which use proprietary charging connectors/cables--that way it is easy to replace a lost, worn out or damaged cable. I would however, have liked to have seen included an attached protective cap which could be snapped into the USB charging port to protect it against bad weather, drops into puddles/creeks, or entry of foreign debris which can often happen during outdoor activities. I do agree with other reviewers, the rolled edge on the bottle is not a great idea, however I've had other bottles with rolled edges over the years and all I did was soak the top of the bottle in bleach for a short while when it was time to clean them. At least the cap covers the rolled edge, so the edge is not likely going to get debris in it when you are carrying the bottle around. As for the people complaining that is has a Micro-USB charging port instead of USB-C--come on, you've got to be kidding! Like most people, I've got scores of products in my home, car and gear which use Micro-USB charging ports (for example--aside from cell phones--digital cameras, e-readers, portable air compressor, handheld trail GPS, security cameras, test equipment, solar-power devices, LED flashlights, battery chargers, music players, internet radio, walkie-talkies, etc., etc.), along with dozens of Micro-USB cables that were included with them. I currently have exactly two devices with USB-C. I bought a handful of micro-USB to USB-C adapters for them. There is no advantage to using a USB-C connector on a non-data product and Micro-USB cables are cheaper and more readily available (supermarkets, gas stations, convenience stores--just about everywhere) since they are still the charging port used on the vast majority of cell phones in the entire world and will be for years to come--not everybody replaces their phone whenever a new model is released...

Expensive but do actually work! Went to India with two of these and had no problem with drinking local tap water that had been cleaned through this water holder. Easy to charge with USBC socket and lasted for weeks. No issue with smells or taste. Would recommend.

Scrivo questa recensione dopo quasi 7 mesi di utilizzo. La bottiglia è come tante altre. La differenza la fa il tappo che contiene un led UV che, ciclicamente, depura l'acqua. Da quando la uso non ho mai sperimentato quel cattivo odore che si crea all'interno delle bottiglie, nonostante le abbia sempre lavate e disinfettate con frequenza. Come capitato ad altri, recentemente, ho avuto un malfunzionamento con il tappo (LED verde fisso) e sistema di depurazione non più funzionante. Visto il costo ho deciso di chiedere supporto al servizio LARQ (in inglese). Ho seguito le istruzioni (veramente semplici) e compilato il form presente sul sito, a cui ho allegato la prova d'acquisto (fattura amazon) e foto del tappo con il led fisso. In una settimana circa mi è arrivato il tappo sostitutivo. Direi che l'esperienza, nel suo complesso, è risultata positiva.

C’est objet est très utile et de très grande qualité. Je le recommande.

Die LARQ Bottle Movement macht einen hochwertigen Eindruck. Sowohl die Verarbeitung als auch das durchdachte Design der Flasche haben mich durchgehend überzeugt. Die Flasche reinigt das Wasser periodisch automatisch, wobei der Reinigungsprozess auch manuell mit einem Druck auf den Deckel gestartet werden kann. Die Reinigung wird dann mit einem schönen leuchtenden Rand auf der Oberseite der Flasche angezeigt. Da ich die Flasche noch nicht allzu lang habe, kann ich noch nichts langfristiges sagen, aber bisher hatte das Wasser immer einen frischen Geschmack, auch wenn es schon länger in der Flasche war. Fazit: Empfehlung für die Flasche meinerseits. Sowohl das Design als auch die Funktionalität haben mich auf ganzer Linie überzeugt, einzig einen USB-C Anschluss zum laden hätte ich mir gewünscht.

I was apprehensive that this bottle would do all that it says it would but after reading some reviews on tech sites I decided to give it a try. Wow, I am glad that I did. Aesthetically it is pretty nice looking water bottle with a good rubber grip on the lower section and a matte, metallic upper portion. Easy enough to use with simplistic button presses and a pretty substantial battery life also. I have never washed the interior since I have bought it and unlike my older workout water bottle that I wash regularly (and it still stinks) this bottle smells like the day I first got it. It is ideal for taking on hikes. Filling it up at waterfalls, streams, creeks and even lakes and giving it a blast of the adventure mode the water tastes great and the bottle doesn't smell like the water source for long. As of yet I have not gotten sick from it either. They are typically Rocky Mountain streams and lakes too so there are definitely worse water sources out there. Just a few negatives; Hard to tell just where to fill it up to as seeing the protruding component on the lid may cause water to overflow out when you put the cap on. Also, being a single walled construction it doesn't hold its temperature for very long, especially in sunlight. Definitely better than a plastic bottle however. Leading to my next con; even with a single walled construction this thing is pretty heavy when filled. A lot of the weight coming from the lid with the battery and components of the UV-C light. Also, as you can see (from the pictures) under the cap and where it contacts the bottle the paint is coming off on both. It was like this pretty much when I got it but it doesn't seem to be flaking off more as of yet which was my concern with such a pricey water bottle. Overall I would definitely recommend this to those who are sick of cleaning water bottles just to have them still smell and for those who hike to remote areas and do not want to carry a Camelpak and can safely refill your water without worry of micro-bacteria.
