Tested much better at keeping cold than a standard bottle.
Well, I saw the other reviews and decided to buy 5 of these for a trip to Hawaii with the family. I received them today and they weren't exactly what I had expected. The outside is a frosted clear plastic and the inside is a pure white hard plastic. Can't tell if they are molded together or just pushed into one another. They don't rotate so perhaps they are glued or fused in some way. There is a layer of air between them as well as what looks like a foil wrap or sock that has the words and coloring on it. The wrap is very loose fitting and looks rather cheap. However, I didn't want to loose hope so I decided to come up with a test to see how well the double walled bottle worked, since, after all it was getting good reviews. I decided to pit it against a standard squeeze bottle that people normally put on a bicycle, and one of those hard plastic, wide screw mouth bottles that people are always carrying around work. I put 10 ice cubes in each of the bottles and left them in a hot room (between 85 and 90 degrees). I didn't want the color to be a factor so they were not put in the sun. I waited until the hard plastic bottle's ice had melted by about 1/2 then I proceeded to measure the amount of water in each of the bottles. The hard plastic bottle had 11 teaspoons, the standard squeeze bottle had 8 teaspoons and the polar bottle had 4 teaspoons. So from this I think it's fair to say that the polar bottle was much better at keeping things cold than the others. The other thing I did was put a napkin under each of them. The polar bottle was the only one that didn't get wet underneath. The other bottles both sweated quite a bit. I think the double wall would not have stopped the sweating so the foil liner must be adding some benefit of some kind. The foil, by the way, does go around the bottom of the bottle as well, not just the sides. Overall, I think it will work out well and I am going to bring them on our trip. I hope this helps others in their decision.

Great BPA free Water Bottle
I have been very happy with these water bottles. I was a little hesitant because people in previous reviews said they had a really bad plastic/smell taste. I washed them in the dishwasher and there is no odor or weird taste and I am usually sensitive to those types of things.

Polar Bottle
I used the bottle yesterday, cycling in 95 degrees for over an hour and my drink was still cool. In a normal water bottle, my drink would have been hot and not very refreshing. Great product.

Great water bottle!!!
I bought this water bottle two weeks ago and I couldn't be happier. The size is perfect and it does keep liquids cold for much longer than other bottles I've tried. I usually put water in it the night before, place it in the freezer and the next morning it's nice and chilled and the bottle doesn't sweat, just as a previous reviewer said. I have not had any weird tastes and I'm using this bottle all day, every day. I take it to the gym with me and it fits perfectly into the cage of the spinning bikes at my gym. Then I take it to work with me, fill it up again with water from the cooler (without ice) and it keeps the water cold for at least one hour. When I get home I wash it, and repeat the process for the next day. Anyone who likes to drink cold, fresh water all day and doesn't want to waste paper or plastic cups should get this bottle.

We've had EXCELLENT experience with this bottle!
I'm sorry, but I can't let this great water bottle sit out there with a one-star review. My family of four has used these bottles for years, with excellent results. We fill them with ice and water and they stay cold a long time, with little or no sweating. We have never noticed a plastic taste, but then, we washed them before use. It may not fit in a bottle cage, but it's great for walking, in the car, in your pack, on a plane... Highly recommended.
