Stanley Nineteen13 One-Handed H20 Bottle: A Good Idea, Poorly Executed



Unscrewing a cap while driving is a sketchy affair, and I’m sure that trying to open a stainless steel bottle on a bike has led to more than one disaster. 

Stanley’s Nineteen13 One-Handed H20 Bottle ($18-$22) caters to commuters with a unique push-button spout. The idea is that the bottle is completely sealed until you push the big button on its side, which opens it up to allow water to flow freely. Great for people who need to steer and drink at the same time. 

The Nineteen13 sports stylish graphics (that winged bear is a great mascot), a stainless steel body, carabiner loop, and cup holder/bike cage-friendly fit. It also comes with a lifetime warranty, which so far is proving to be pretty handy.

Update: Stanley contacted me to swap out my bottle with a new one to redeem the One-Hander and see what went wrong with my bottle. Impressed with their QC department's response. Here's the update.
