The original Owala FreeSip bottle 24 oz rates 4.6 across 141,091 ratings and was 3rd in the same Best Sellers list. It is a bottle for a bag rather than a tumbler, and Owala FreeSip against Stanley Quencher sets the 2 side by side.
Iron Flask missed the cut for being a bottle
The Iron Flask 40 oz wide-mouth bottle rates 4.8 across 65,672 ratings, level with the YETI. Owners say it keeps water cold all day and takes a beating, and it ships with 3 lids. It is a bottle without a handle, so it answers a different question. Leaks split owners.
