Cartoon Bear Double Wall Insulated Stainless Steel Bottle with Flip Lid

A bear on a cream bottle, and a button you open with your thumb

It goes in the side pocket of a rucksack at half past seven, and it comes out again on a bench at eleven. One hand still holds the bag strap, the other presses the oval button on the collar, the top flips up, and you drink. Nothing to unscrew, nothing to hold between your teeth. The drawing on the cream paint is a bear with a tulip, or a bear waving, or a cat, depending on which one you chose.

Under the paint the wall is doubled: 304 stainless steel on the face that touches the drink, 201 on the outside shell. It comes at 320 ml and 420 ml, both slim enough for a bottle pocket, and the lid unit screws off the neck completely so the inside can be washed properly rather than rinsed through a spout.

Key Benefits

• Double wall stainless steel. The maker specifies 304 stainless steel for the inner face and 201 for the outer shell, so the drink only ever meets the 304.
• One handed flip top. A button on the collar releases the lid. The maker also describes a lock beside it.
• Two sizes, eight drawings. 320 ml and 420 ml, with bear and cat line drawings and a short printed phrase under each.
• A canvas sleeve on four options. The options ending in handbag ship with a matching printed carry sleeve with a loop handle.
• The lid comes right off. The whole lid assembly screws off the neck, which is the difference between a bottle you can clean and one you rinse and hope.

Best for: a school bag, a desk, or a commute where the bottle has to open with one hand. Slim rather than large, so it fits a side pocket instead of filling it.

Why It Works

The two useful facts on this sheet are the wall and the lid, and they are independent. A doubled wall of 304 and 201 steel is what slows the drink down; the maker puts a figure of 6 to 12 hours on that, and that figure is theirs, not a measurement we made. The lid is the part you touch twenty times a day, and here it does two jobs: a threaded collar for filling and washing, a sprung flip top for drinking. The specification sheet calls it a screw cap and the overview calls it a bounce lid, which is the same lid described from two ends.

Quick Product Facts: 304 stainless steel inner, 201 stainless steel outer; capacities 320 ml and 420 ml; PP lid; screw on lid assembly with a push button flip top; lock described by the maker; retention of 6 to 12 hours as stated by the maker; eight printed designs including bear and cat drawings; four options add a printed canvas carry sleeve with a loop handle; packing list is one bottle, plus one tote bag on selected variants.

How It Fits Your Routine

Fill it hot in the morning and it goes in the bag. The flip top is the whole point on a train or in a lecture: thumb on the button, drink, click it shut, no cap rolling under a seat.

On a desk it stays closed between sips, which is what keeps a 320 ml of tea drinkable for an afternoon rather than going cold in twenty minutes like an open mug.

Washing is where the screw thread earns its place. Take the lid unit off, wash the body and the lid separately by hand, and dry the neck. Do not put boiling liquid in it and then close the flip top immediately; give it a moment, as with any sealed bottle.

FAQ

How long does it hold temperature? The maker states 6 to 12 hours. That is their figure and it is the only one on the sheet, so treat it as their claim rather than a tested result, and expect the 420 ml to hold longer than the 320 ml.

Does the sleeve come with every option? No. Only the four options whose name ends in handbag. The packing list is one bottle, and one tote bag on selected variants, so read the option name before you add to cart.

Is the lid screw on or flip up? Both, and they are different parts. The lid assembly screws onto the neck. The drinking top on that assembly flips up when you press the button on the collar.

Can I put it in a dishwasher? The maker does not say, and the lid is PP with a spring mechanism inside. Hand wash the body and the lid separately.
