Haven't had any issues with leakage. I have one bottle which was accidentally dropped and minus the dent still works well and no leakage

No leakage problems, at all! This is a very sturdy bottle and worth every penny! You can put ice and water in it and it stays ice cold for 12 hours. We got them after family members used them in the service in Hawai'i. The bottle does not sweat, at all:)

I've never had any issues. I throw it in my tote bag to bring to work or in my beach bag. I just make sure the lid is closed tightly.

The screw on cap has a silicon seal that absolutely has never leaked for me.

I have had no leaks anywhere on my bottle and I use constantly all day long

This is the best water bottle I've had. No leakage issues. I've used it daily at the gym, in the car, etc. Never had a problem with it.

The consistency of the product is very thick, like a thick maple syrup; not quite as thick as honey, but close. Taste is very subjective. There is no outer seal on the cap, but there should have been a safety seal under the cap, so there should be no leakage unless the seal was somehow compromised. Not sure who you purchased it from, but since this is a liquid, Amazon would require any Fulfilled by Amazon merchants to have this in a sealed poly bag for this very reason. In any event, if it was leaking, we would suggest contacting the seller for a full refund, and would not risk consuming the product.

No its just a cap but when tightly sealed, I've never had problems of leaking when it falls over.

It is not normal for the bottle to leak at all. Sometimes water can get trapped in the threads and get squeezed out when the lid is tightened. Make sure its not just that residual water from the threads and then return it.

It is leak proof. Even by leaving it unlocked it won't leak. I still lock out every time I throw it inside my bagpack, just in case!

It has leaked for my wife but not myself (we own two). It would seem that the quality of the seal varies. Due to this, I can't safely recommend this for bag carry.

The cap snaps on. It seems like a tight fit. I just took the uncapped pen and shook it hard (like I was shaking a ketchup bottle) 5 or 6 times and on the last shake a small drop of ink came out. Personally, I'm not worried about leaks.

Mine didn't have a seal, and I didn't see any leaks. I didn't have it on during any hard reason though. Hope this helps.

ive had mine for a few months now. i just used it again about a week ago and it worked just fine. bit i keep mine stored the same way the bottles came with that little plastic cap then the regular cap over and tighten it a bit. i think the key is making sure the cap is on tight so no air can ruin the liquid.

The clear plastic insert attached to the bottle is supposed to fit inside the bottle lid. I have two bottles and when lid is screwed on there is no leakage on either one. I wonder if there is a defect with the clear plastic insert or the lid. You might check to see if the clear plastic is inserted rightly into the bottle. I have tested mine a few times after reading this, and mine are both sealed tight when lid is screwed on. You might contact seller. I am very pleased with my product.

Just FYI, when tightening the cap, it does not require heavy pressure to seal completely. If you go overboard and screw it down with all your might in the belief it's getting a better seal, it may distort the silicone seal and cause problems. There should be no reason the seal wouldn't outlast the bottle with reasonable handling. If you want to see just how well it seals, fill it up, screw it down just a bit past the initial contact, and shake it as hard as you can muster to see if you can get it to lose a drop. I've even done it with boiling water and it held the pressure with no problems. Pressing the release had the lid pop open, showing how much pressure it was able to hold without any trace of leakage.

Yes they are leakproof. We've never had a problem. I carry one in my purse. HOWEVER, folks are right about the caps. a few of mine are starting to crack, possibly from over tightening. I'm going to get replacements caps because the bottles are excellent.

I am not confident I understand the question. If you are asking how effective the attached cap prevents leaks and spills. I have not experienced any leaks or spillage as long as the cap is secured tightly. I would recommend purchasing this product because it keeps your cold beverages cold and your hot beverages hot.

The caps never go on the bottle. They just go on the bag so you can freeze your breast milk. If your worried about the bottle leaking out in your diaper bag the cap that goes over the nipple fits really well,i never had a problem with leaking.

I mostly use it at the office and upright but a few times that it fell or was laying horizontally - there was not a drop leaking so i think its pretty well sealed. Its also amazingly easy to clean - has this teflon style interior. I actually use Contigo plastic bottle for gym and it never leaks - just screw the cap on tight.

Do you have a good seal on the bottle? It should be very snug. I had one bottle that I had to use one of the rubber adapters with, but most fit perfectly. Pam

You have to make sure that you tighten the cap after filling it up. I haven't had an issue with it leaking.
