The best bottle there is. Nothing fancy about it, but the best shape, easiest to hold, effective when you?re on the road. Period.

the new lid design is nice for ease of cleaning but it leaks! I used to be able to carry my water bottle around in my bag and it would be fine but now I Have to be super careful with it. Also if you squeeze it too hard while drinking some water will leak out the sides too.

I purchased as a replacement for an older other branded bottle. This is far superior. Very happy with my purchase.

This bottle is awesome and one of the few that doesn't leak during the ride and transportation. Easy to drink from with plenty of fluid flow to quench that thirst.

Our whole family love these bottles for bike as well as everyday use. Fill them up with ice and water and it will stay cold your whole ride even in the summer.

I’m a big fan of this bottle. The top stays closed from leaks until I twist it. The only issue is, is it’s a two hand job for me. Purhaps a guy could learn to do it with one somehow.

The CamelBak Chill's are great for the kids. They stay in good shape and this style is much better than the built-in straw style. My boys have used them for years. They make great Easter basket or stocking stuffers. Pair with a drawstring backpack for a cool birthday gift for older kids. Sunny Sports had them for a great price!

Used the 21 oz for years now. Just bought 6 more. Own a few of the larger size too. Suggest you make a smaller version. I’d order a few of those as well.

Both my husband and I use two of these bottles for cycling, just in different colors. Both of us are satisfied with the quality and we don't have any issues drinking from these bottles while on saddle.

It's an easy review. Works perfectly, keeps water cool, and the ease of properly cleaning the top is simply the best on the market. Wonderful bottles.

I bought one of these a couple years ago and really wanted another one. It’s perfect for cooling off during soccer and perfect for biking! I’d define toy but it again.

Nice size bottle.. it fits in a car cup holder and also on my bike holder. Keeps drinks cold for a while and is spill-proof. It's worth it.

I bought this recently thinking that it was the same as a similar Camelbak bottle called a "Podium Ice" which on the exterior graphics claims to be "4X COLDER." While that is not a very technically meaningful description, in my experience the Podium Ice does keep beverages colder longer than the "Podium Chill," and both do so better than non-insulated bottles. The valve arrangement is the same on both, does not leak, and is satisfactory otherwise. It doesn't appear that the "Podium Ice" is available any longer, and I wonder why not. In any case, the description of all of the insulated water bottles would be more credible and useful if more objective technical data were given, such as the time required for the temperature of water in the bottle (with no ice in it to increase from 35 degrees to 45 degrees with the outside air at, say, 100 degrees with a 10 mph wind (which is indicative of what the bottle would experience being carried on a bicycle on a hot day). Or, more technically, an "R" value for the container. So, I rate the Podium Chill as "good," but could be better.

I've had mine for about 2 years now, I'm buying a replacement cap for that bottle as well as buying another one in this style. The insulation works awesome and it's easy to grab and go and squeeze. I freaking love this bottle!!!

I haven't used anything other than Cambelback's Podium Chill water bottles for 10 years running. It does what water bottles are supposed to do and it keeps it cold and refreshing for those long bike rides in the midday sun.

I have been using the camel bak podium chill bottles for over a year now and they are simply amazing!! Will they keep your drink ice cold all day...No.. but they are the most indestructible, easiest to clean, best drink design and build quality hands down bar none!! If you're looking for a bottle to keep your drink on ice for 24 hours keep looking however if you're looking for an easy to drink from, indestructible, keep your drink chilled bottle..THIS IS THE ONLY ONE!!!

I got this bottle in my Cairn subscription bag, and I have to tell you... it is the best bottle I've ever had, love it and don't leave home without it! I lovehow it feels in my hand, and the spout is really awesome. It perfectly keeps my water cool through my long mountain rides, through my daily busy schedule, and I love the colors!!!

I've bought a few of these for long summer bike rides. While it definitely keeps water cool for longer than uninsulated bottles, at the end of rides 2+ hours water is warm.

Tips for Cleaning Cap to Keep Up this Great Bottle
By Triathlete T.
I use this water bottle for cycling. It keeps ice-water cool on 70F 2Hr rides, which is what I like most about it, plus the ergonomic feel (for righties at least, and the force with which it sprays—I can get a good gulp quickly with minimal effort—make it a great cycling water bottle. I just cleaned out the cap after using it for a year (yes it was gross). As others have complained, it does develop mold fairly easily and the cap can be tough to clean. But it is not all that difficult to do (...

Worth It
By Anon
Love, love, love this water bottle. I, personally, have never experienced any of the issues that some of the other users have with the cap. No signs of mold, no tinge, nothing, and, I've had this water bottle for about a year now. I love the pliability of it, and the added feature of locking the top so no water can escape is excellent and very useful. This water bottle comes with me to soccer, volleyball, on runs, and on road trips. It's been kicked and thrown around, and yet still looks the ...

CamelBak's Podium Chill 21 oz. water bottle is more than just a simple water bottle. It features double wall construction that keeps water cold twice as long as regular sport bottles; the innovative, self-sealing jet valve eliminates splatters and spills; and the lightweight, easy-squeeze bottle delivers the right flow to quench your thirst. It has a wide mouth opening that makes it easy to fill with ice and water and a breeze to clean. And, if you're so inclined, this bottle can also keep your warm beverages warm during cool weather rides.
