Owala FreeSip 32 oz Stainless Steel Water Bottle, Very, Very Dark

A quick sip at your desk and a bigger drink on the go do not need different lids. The Owala FreeSip lets you sip upright through its built-in straw or tilt the bottle to drink through the spout opening. This 32 oz stainless-steel version comes in Very, Very Dark, with a push-button cover and a carry loop that doubles as a lock.

Press the button to open the cover, then choose how you want to drink. Before carrying the bottle, close the cover and fold the loop over the button. Keep other objects clear of the button to help avoid accidental opening.

Cleaning & Care

Owala's guide calls for hand washing the stainless-steel cup with warm, soapy water. The lid can go on the dishwasher's top rack, and the removable straw can go in the utensil basket. Remove the spout gasket using its pull tab and clean it separately. Wash the bottle before first use.

Things to Know Before Buying

  • Owala says not to use this bottle for hot, carbonated, or perishable liquids. Do not microwave, freeze, or boil it.
  • Do not assume this 32 oz bottle will fit your vehicle's cup holder.
  • Owala warns that heat or altitude changes can build pressure and cause liquid to leak or spray when opening. Its guide says to loosen the lid a quarter turn to release pressure, then retighten it before drinking. Open cautiously and keep fingers away from the recess behind the spout cover.

Best For / Not Ideal For

Worth considering if you want to switch between straw sipping and tilted drinking without swapping lids. Choose a different bottle for hot, carbonated, or perishable drinks. If vehicle cup-holder fit is essential, confirm it before buying.

FAQ

Do I need to change the lid to drink without the straw?

No. You can sip upright through the built-in straw or tilt the bottle to drink through the spout opening.

Can the whole bottle go in the dishwasher?

Owala's guide gives different instructions for each component: hand wash the stainless-steel cup, put the lid on the top rack, and place the removable straw in the utensil basket.
