Customer Reviews Hydro Flask 12 oz Wide Mouth with Straw Lid (Youth)

We have one for both of our kids and they use them every day. Keeps their drinks nice and cold. Only problem is they caps do leak when laying down so have to be careful to keep the upright when in bags, the car seat, etc.

This is a great cup. Keeps water cold. My 3 year old isn't strong enough to open it herself. That's fine. My only problem is that the vent is already lost off of hers. The small rubber vent. So the water comes right out. And I can not find replacements.

We love our family of hydroflasks. But my daughter's is now missing a piece, the tiniest piece I would have never noticed until her bag was soaking wet. I couldn't figure out why it was leaking until I saw this little hole that the water was coming out of. This tiny piece probably went down the drain during a wash. Pretty disappointing considering the price.

I bought this for my toddler. I have had hydro flask bottles since the beginning of the company and have never had an issue until this cover. The small gray piece came out of the straw cover and now it is not leak proof. I have never had this happen before.

Bought this a couple weeks ago, and my wife and I love the design, and our son loves using it. Only one drawback - there is a tiny rubber gasket that goes in the breather hole (we weren't even aware until we did the research and saw the complaints) and when cleaning the water bottle, it mysteriously went missing, and now it leaks like crazy. Probably not the best design - this isn't really a piece that needs to be removable? Not sure how to fix this without having to replace the entire lid. If it weren't for this, it would absolutely be a 5 star review.

I have three of these bottles and two of the little vents have fallen off while washing and now the bottles leak everywhere. Super disappointing as these were not inexpensive. Is there anyway of purchasing these little vents to pop in?

If you guys could make them not leak, kind of like Contiga, these would be PERFECT

I was so excited to get this cute hydroflask for my son to keep all of his drinks cold. I think we have only used it a couple of times and have always handwashed it and the colors are starting to fade. I don't know if this is normal this early, but I'm a little disappointed.

I have had this for about 6 months and I love how cold it keeps fluids and that my toddler can open and close it herself. The only drawback is that the vent hole has started leaking so every time I leave it in the bag, everything gets wet!

I bought 2 of these water bottles for my girls. They look great but the design is flawed. When you tip the water bottle upside down (when it's in the "closed" position), water leaks out of it. I've had several wet backpacks as a result! for a water bottle of this price, I'd expect it to be more leak proof.

Bought the yellow one for my daughter for school, and it keeps her drink nice and cold, but leaks at the little hole in the cap. Was a small dribble at first but now it can't even be used.

This bottle is the perfect size for my toddler. He loves that it keeps his drink cold all day just like mine. The rubber boot on the bottom is great because the bottle won't slide and it also protects my floors :) The only con, which is a pretty big con to me, is that this bottle leaks! It leaks when you close the straw. It also leaks out of a little hole on the top if my son knocks the bottle over or if it turns a little in his backpack. We are constantly finding leaked water from the bottle. I wanted to buy more of these, but the leaking makes me not want to. I'm surprised that a bottle meant for kids would have such big leaks.

This is a good bottle. Keeps my kids drinks cold, easy to clean, slide proof. It would be perfect if they added volume measurements on the inside. Will keep looking for that perfect bottle.

Let me start by saying that my daughter loves this bottle, which means she drinks more water. I like the size and that she can open the straw part herself (a challenge with a former bottle.) My complaint is about the lid. Since it is plastic, some of the coldness dissipates more quickly than I had hoped and it "sweats". The sweating is the more frustrating thing as it makes other stuff in her bag get wet. The bottle is a win. The cap is less of a win.

It keeps the kids' drinks cool or hot, it's easy to clean, it's durable, but it leaks. If you close the straws back up, after you've taken a sip, the excess liquid gets stuck in the straw and leaks out of the sides.

It's too hard for my 5 year old to open and close the water spout on this one. The other one we ordered is fine. Guessing it's just defective.

Like other hydro flask products the quality is great. But the lid design is terrible, even with the straw closed this thing leaks like crazy. I know it isn't spill proof but I expected better. The vent hole in the lid is huge. Had hoped we could take this places like hikes Or while traveling but it mostly sits in our cupboard cause i end up with water everywhere when I give it to my child.

I thought the lid on the kids hydroflask might sweat a bit for cold water, but it actually leaks a lot more than expected. It seems odd that for a kids bottle, they wouldn't design something leak proof that is commonly thrown around or tossed into backpacks. It seems to leak more than the 32oz wide mouth straw lid I have.

Dont get me wrong I do love our bottles but my son's is the biggest headache. The top of the bottle, particularly the spout comes out and when placed back in it loses suction. When it 1st happened I just bought a whole new one (they dont have kid too replacement options anywhere). THis time with the new bottle same thing spout came off, no suction. Hopefully my 2 year old doesn't notice he loves this thing especially cause he thinks he's drinking his h2o like mama.

I bought this less than a year ago for my daughter and it works great other than it does leak even when closed up and I took the spout off the top to clean it (it gets mold and food etc. in there) and now it no longer works just sounds like tons of air is coming through. If it lost a seal in that portion I can't find anywhere to get a replacement seal without buying a whole new top or cup. Very disappointed after what I paid

I love these water bottles but I am really frustrated because both of them no longer work. My daughter (3) is a normal toddler. This means that at the end of the day, her water bottle is gross. It's usually sticky, has dirt on it, etc. I clean her water bottle every night. At first, I loved that I could take the top apart--I'd clean the straw, take off the sprout, and clean it and underneath it. There was usually food down there or that black mold that grows when moisture gets trapped. However, after cleaning it every night for a week, the little plastic ring inside fell out, which meant the bottle stopped working. I blamed myself and so I got a new one. This time, the FIRST time I cleaned it, the same thing happened! I emailed customer service and haven't gotten a response. For the cost, this shouldn't be happening.

My daughter loves drinking from my 32oz Hydroflask and was super excited when she got her own. Durability is good, but I'm so disappointed with it. Ice is melted and water is room temp within 2 hours.

I bought this for my 8 year old daughter for school. She loved it and stills does but unfortunately we have a huge problem with leakage.

I just bought this for my son, the color is so vivid, but that's the best part about it. It arrived with 2 straws, one bent and the other has a slit down one side. It also leaks like crazy:/ I was so excited to receive this cup and so far it's been more of a hassle from all the leaks

I used it for my baby for a few short weeks and rust appeared inside
