There were no instructions with the jug on how to puncture the pods. Once that was figured out, mixed one of the pods and taste tested Gatorade. The Gatorade pod mixed with water to the fill line does taste watered down. Will have to use less water next time. Love the size of the jug.

Nice thermos and the pods are easy to use. You can adjust the water level and get a stronger or weaker flavor. The thermos seals well and keeps drink cold for a decent amount of time. Not a bulky thermos so easy to carry with you.

Good water bottle jug for baseball and football double headers and double sessions. But the lid broke and I have not been able to find a replacement lid, to the trash it goes. Is there an option to buy a replacement lid?! Please let me know I prefer to repair and reuse rather than trash

Would be better if it had a straw style lid to make it easier to drink from.

Looking at this as just a bottle, it's not bad. It has some pretty nice features I enjoy, such as a place to write my name on the handle, a pull-out hook on the same handle, and a rubber texture for easier grip. It's also fairly easy to drink from. I like carrying half-gallon sized jugs with me to drink from throughout the day, and I've done so for years. However, this bottle has a tendency to leak when it rolls over in my car seat, and it doesn't maintain colder temperatures like my other double-walled, vacuum sealed jugs. The pod idea makes no sense to me. It's MUCH more affordable to buy the Gatorade powders and mix them in the jug. I feel this is just another marketing gimmick to spend more for the same thing.

I have been using this bottle for a week. It has clip to open for adding pods inside. However, clip is little weird and need to push little harder. One more thing that I have realized that soppy is expose outside. If that has some cover which can help to protect from bacteria while it is open or keep it in outdoor ground during play time. I went for football play and feel like that sippy does not protection on top from outside bacteria and dirt. It has fillsble mark with fluid size in ounce. Material of cap is good. Overall, bottle is good but need some improvement of adding cap on top for supply and little bit hard material. Good thing that it does not leak water.

I received the Gx kit concave Gx pro jug a couple of weeks ago. It is a good size, easy to fill and use. I personally feel it is a bit larger than I would need, but I feel it could be useful to someone who is able to drink larger quantities of fluids more quickly than I can.

This is just a big plastic flask, nothing exciting. It's heavy and clunky. There is a removable piece in the neck of the flask, which I assume helps to dispense the pod, but it feels rickety, and it makes me want to rip it out immediately. Although this is advertised as secure and leakproof, I found that the cap could be flipped up with just a small amount of pressure. I've had disasters in my car where tidal waves of liquid secretly poured out of their containers, so I am very wary now of anything holding fluids while rolling around on the floor. Also, the large screw on lid makes me a little nervous. it seems like it could come loose or get misthreaded easily. What do I like about this jug? The large capacity and easy-to-fill wide opening. But there's nothing that really stands out or makes it particularly special compared to all the other water vessels I have in my closets.
