Product Overview
The Simple Modern Kids Summit water bottle is a stainless steel insulated bottle that can be used at school or daycare, when you're traveling, for your child's sports events, or as an every day bottle. This bottle uses double wall vacuum insulation so it will keep drinks cold for hours, and also reduces the amount of condensation that appears on the outside of the bottle.
The bottle has a straw lid which is simple for kids to open and close. The design of the narrow base was created to allow for this bottle to fit into most cars and strollers' cup holder spaces. The reusable stainless steel body is available in many different color options, styles and kid friendly designs.

Bottom Line
The most significant advantage of the Summit Water Bottle from Simple Modern Kids is that it will provide your children with the durability they require for every day, at school or in daycare, on trips, etc. The bottle's main benefits are its ability to keep drinks cool all day longer than other insulated bottles, the easy-to-clean and kid friendly straw lid and its compact design which allows it to fit into many car cup holders. A couple of drawbacks include the need to clean the straw properly after each use so as to prevent clogging, and also possible leakage when the straw lid is not sealed properly.
