How do you clean these? Are there spots mold can build up?

I put the whole thing in the dishwasher once a week or so, and we haven't had any issues with mold. My daughter has used it daily for 9 months or so. I'm sure mold could develop around the straw if you don't remove it periodically to clean.

If left open and tipped over, does the straw prevent (or minimize) spilling?

Not really. There's no valve, it's just a straw. When you close the top there is a little plastic piece that you slide over which locks the top down. The only issues we've had with spilling is when my kids forget to slide that lock over.

The lid had locked. How do I open it?

Thank you for your inquiry. From what I can see on the water bottle top, there is a small lever on the side that opens and locks the bottle top. Regards

Do these bottles sweat? Looking for a plastic water bottle for elementary kids to have at their desk so it cannot sweat.

Only the tiniest bit. I have one kid keep it in her lunch box, and her lunch box comes home dry. The other keeps it at her desk and says it's fine. I like that it holds a lot, but isn't one of those giant bottles that won't fit in a backpack side pocket!

Caution! Buy if you want to waste your hard earned money

This is a worst buy ever the quality is inferior the one I bought from abroad and the one bought in India have a very big difference on term of quality and Price the silicon on the cap started coming out within and year and the one bought from abroad is still intact after 3 yrs.

Best bottle for kids

Best children’s water bottle I have come across. Leak proof, locking lid, great flow, good grip and looks super cool. Has a handy place to attach a carabeener. I got one for my 4 & 7 year old and they both love it.

Non functional lid

Received the bottle and the lid doesn't close. I broke a nail trying to fix it. Very disappointed.

Did not last long.

The spout you drink out of became mouldy, despite being washed every day. Had to throw it out.

Finally a good water bottle

Every parent searches for that water bottle that is easy to clean, won't leak, and is durable for kids. This one has been fantastic. I use a straw cleaner to clean out the spout and it keeps it clean. Great purchase.
