Product Description : An alternative to plastic water bottles, the Gaiam aluminum water bottle is a perfect way to enjoy your favorite beverage. Available in several fashion prints, chose the bottle that reflects your personality while reducing the amount of plastic that ends up in our landfills. The bottle is very durable but the art work on the bottle comes off after a several washes, which I did not understand. This is a very cute bottle with attractive design, but unfortunately after about two weeks the design starts to wear off! I couldn't believe how poor the quality was. Also, even though I washed the bottle regularly and only put water in it, there was some funky growth on the inside liner that I couldn't get rid of. I have since purchased a $4 stainless steel bottle from a discount retailer and it is much better than this overpriced one. I love this bottle. It is exactly as the description says and it is my favorite style of water bottle. Great for any use and the color and design are wonderful.
