Larq earns largely positive reviews for delivering genuinely cleaner, fresher‑tasting water via UV‑C self‑cleaning and optional filter straw, plus strong insulation and long battery life; many users report improved hydration and sleek, durable designs. However, reviews also flag weaknesses: buggy or inaccurate app syncing, leaking lids and loose or faulty straws, heavy bottles with small effective capacity, and recurring cap “orange ring” malfunctions that undermine reliability.

Very good product, quality and efficiency. However the volume is not enough, heavy bottle. Easily scratched. Hard to clean the mouth piece, unable to cover (unhygenic)

I've been using LARQ products for many years now. It started with the original pure vis bottle, then I incorporated their smart pitcher, then the bottle filtered & now the pure vis bottle 2.0. I used to be someone who never even thought about drinking their water, so definitely I wasn't drinking enough until I discovered LARQ. At home, LARQ has allowed me to completely switch away from bottled & big jug packaged waters. The filters are super effective & having the uvc treatment from pure vis helps with extra piece of mind for my drinking & substantially aids with the taste improvement. It's very jarring for me nowadays whenever I have to go back to plastic water bottles or other store bought sources of water (temporarily) whenever I'm outside my city and the water sources are questionable. Or when it's not convenient to bring my LARQ bottle along (it still happens, but rarely). I'm very thankful that I discovered LARQ many, many years ago from a random Instagram ad, and I'm more so very happy that they continue to innovate & make all the awesome products they do. My life wouldn't be the same, with respect to my hydration habits, without them.

I love that the bottle reminds me to drink water. My water intake has gone up significantly, which is what I really needed. Even better that the bottle kills the bottle stank, filters contaminants, and has Apple Health integration.

We used to use another brand of pitcher and when we found out about LARQ we decided to give it a try. The water that comes out of a LARQ pitcher is more clean and refreshing than any other brand pitcher that we have tried.

filtering water pitcher literally does what it says. I use it all the time because I don't trust tap water lol.

Love my Larq bottle. I have the new bottle which also tracks your water intake. The battery life on it is great, and my water intake has definitely gone up. Also, I feel a sense of confidence anywhere I travel knowing I can have clean and purified water. Also, Larq has incredible customer service. I broke my Larq pitcher by dropping it, and asked if they could provide a discount code to purchase a new one. Better yet, they shipped me a replacement for free! Incredible product and service.

This is everything I have been looking for to take out on my trips. Lightweight and gets the job done when drinking out of streams and unknown sources. It's easy to drink from, doesn't spill in my bag, and is dishwasher safe.

I love my Swig bottle with the filter straw; I used it this Summer on my vacation, touring the UK and it was a perfect traveling companion. Also keeps the water cold even when I leave it in my super hot car (I left it for 3 hours and the water was still cold!) Filter straw is useful and I feel safe to drink the water while on the go! I just love it and love the design and new colors...I gifted it to my friend and family and they love it too...

I love my LARQ swig bottle. The size is perfect for travel, but carries enough water as well. I also think the design of the detachable handle is great for clipping to backpacks when on a hike. Lastly, the spout design is very ergonomic and creates a great drinking experience.

No bottle like this on the market. The fact that you can purify your water super easy is amazing. I can trust tap water much more now. The bottle has been leak proof and keeps the water cold for a very long time - even if it sits in the burning sun. The new app connection is pretty cool - the reminders help me to drink more. Tested both LARQ PureVis and PureVis 2.

I received a Larq bottle as a Mother's Day gift in 2020. It was well loved for the first year. Then while traveling I wasn't able to use the cleaning function and had a red ring. I contacted Customer service they were prompt and said it was out of the warranty and they gave me a discount for a replacement as the malfunction couldn't be fixed. At the time I thought that was reasonable. So I purchased another top as a replacement in Jan. 2023. As I work overseas and only come home once a year I didn't get my bottle top replacement until the end of November 2023. I was excited and started using it right away. A few weeks ago(June 2024) I returned from the US and I got the orange ring!! I contacted customer service they were prompt and I was told again I needed a replacement and I was out of the 1 year warranty. I was also informed that this is a KNOWN issue and that they are working on it!!! I am disappointed on so many levels. I paid over 100. dollars for the bottle because I travel and want clean water. I also purchased three more bottles as gifts. Will this happen to their bottles as well? How embarrassing.. Why at this point would I purchase another replacement just to go through this again? And I am definitely not going to buy these as gifts. This is sad really because the concept is a good one. But to ask people to repurchase knowing that the issue hasn't been resolved is irresponsible.

Incredibly disappointed with this product. I’m surprised that there is no double wall construction for this bottle. The bottom of the bottle has a wrap that insulates where your hand holds the bottle but at the top of the bottle it sweats when you put cold water in it has no thermal insulation characteristic. I expected better performance on keeping my daily use water smell free overtime, but I am inclined to wash the bottle since it is not able to keep it odour free.

I’m not sure if I got a faulty bottle / filter, but it’s nearly impossible to drink out of it. I never use it because of this reason, when I do use it my mouth becomes swollen because of how hard I need to try.

Don’t buy this. Some people seem to have my experience but others don’t. But the fact that I’m not alone means they have manufactured a bunch of faulty bottles. This was way too expensive of a purchase for this to be the outcome.

Bought the very first version of it. Love it. After a fair usage it got scratched easily.

I love this water bottle! So nice for making sure your water is clean if you get it from a fountain or tap. It also keeps drinks pretty cold!

I’d love to see a bigger bottle option.

Fairly compact, relatively lightweight, looks great, easy to charge, and doesn't smell weird. Much easier to clean than previous water bottles I've owned.
Feedback
Not necessarily an improvement, but I wish I got a darker color, as the white bottle marks pretty quickly.
