S’well reviews and discussion
Reviews mention
- Exceptional insulation performance
- Leakproof, reliable sealing
- Sleek, cup‑holder‑friendly silhouettes
- Distinctive, fashion‑forward designs
- Narrow mouth complicates cleaning
- Exterior coating chips or scratches
- Prone to dents when dropped
- Occasional metallic taste or odor
S’well earns strong reviews for performance and style: bottles and drinkware reliably keep beverages icy-cold or piping hot for hours, don’t leak, fit cup holders and backpacks, and come in distinctive colors, marbles, and collaborations. Reviews also flag drawbacks—narrow mouths and caps that are difficult to clean, easy denting and exterior chipping/scratching, occasional metallic taste or odor, and dated designs versus newer competitors—making it excellent for temperature retention but less compelling for durability and ergonomics.

I've been using swell since my highschool days and they were all the trend. I stay loyal to them, they never let me down and my drinks always stay cold.
Swell bottles definitely do a nice job of keeping things warm and cold, i think I just didn’t love the shape of the bottle I purchased - would definitely try a different style next time!

I do like the size of their containers, especially the original water bottles.
Feedback
I've had one of the lids strip so it no longer worked, but all the rest have been fine.

I have a swell water bottle as well as a coozy for canned beverages. Both are great. They’re insulated and keep beverages cold and pretty durable.
Feedback
I’m happy with the products!
Fine products, but not worth the money. There are much cuter options out there!

Great designs and keeps drinks really cool. Can fill it up in the morning and by the end of the day my drinks still are cooled.
Quality reusable bottles and thermoses. Love the fun selection of colours and sizes!

Publish more on sustainable practices and sourcing of materials!
Very luxury feel & great at keeping things cold. They don't do well in dishwasher and haven't had products last long because of it.

Wrapping designs in a way that is dishwasher safe
Great overall. Not really any complaints, but I wish the water bottles were larger to compare with my hydro flask.

LOVE - easy review. the products are high quality, they make you feel like you are doing better for the world. I like SWell
I love my S'well bottle. Great for everyday use!
It is crazy how long my water stays cold in these bottles. I’m talking 12 hours later there is still ice! I only have the water bottles but they work so well I’ve gotten a few sizes and given them as gifts
Feedback
Some of the designs wear off a little fast but I also have dropped mine a few times so the dents probably don’t help.
Can keep liquids hot or cold for extended periods of time. Pretty aesthetic and very durable.
Feedback
Not dishwasher friendly. Expensive product.
S'well is the OG chic water bottle and deserves the credit! They have led the industry in sleek insulated drinkware and will always be my go-to.
Feedback
This is only a concern in their original water bottle design, but the inside is a little hard to clean because of the narrow opening. Obviously not a problem with their mugs/etc.
Love Swell! Use the bottles on a daily and especially enjoy the travel mug for tea and coffee - keeps warm for so long.
Feedback
They are a bit too heavy to carry around a full day and would love more add-ons with straws etc. The current straw attachment leaks at times as it's not fully secured once closed but love it otherwise!
I love the design & the functionality of Swell! There are so many different colors and patterns to choose from! The insulation is insanely good - it kept my ice solid for almost a whole day and kept my hot tea piping hot!
Feedback
I wish it was dishwasher safe & had a handle of some kind.
Keeps my water cold every time while still looking cute. Lots of variety when it comes to cup shape and size and there is plenty of options to choose from and customize.

They have great quality containers and I look forward to buying more. They look nice, dont leak and last a long time as well.
Still my go-to water bottle brand due to its temperature control features, but it is quite difficult to clean, given it cannot go in the dish washer. My only complaint is that I end up having to replace my Swell every few months
Feedback
Easier cleaning
I’ve had my S’well for a few years now and it works exactly as advertises. It’s not my go to water bottle because I have others that hold more liquid. It has a sleek design but I think that it might be its downfall. The thin neck makes it hard to clean and not being able to see inside the bottle to make sure it’s fully clean is a little off putting.
