I have bought 4 of these bottles, and I love them. The only issue is that the pin in one of the lids has come loose. Any suggestions?

It happened with me also, I started watching for the pin to start drifting out of place and any time that I noticed it starting to happen I used a pliers to push it back into place. I suppose that if it gets worse you could use a drop of super glue to secure It in place.

The best way to deal with a pin in a plastic hole is to flatten the end of the pin and re-insert; same way watch bands keep the pin stuck. super-glue won't fit into the hole or stick to the plastic. I usually use a diagonal cutter to make the 'dent' on the end of the pin; I will make 2-3 dents rotated from each other (one set at "6" and "12" and one set at "3" and "9") I've used the trick dozens of times; haven't had do on this bottle but on myriad similar pins in plastic

We haven't run into that issue yet, but from looking at it, the only option that I can think of is to glue it to the socket, using a tiny drop of a super glue on one side would do it.

I'd love to know the same- I keep adding to my drawer of lid-less bottles, which I would def. buy replacement lids for. Defeats the purpose of a reusable bottle if I have to recycle them every time they get dropped....

Mine is. I've had pretty good luck with these types of bottles. In the past, I had a couple off brand ones that leaked, but even those I think the seal got twisted or loose in the dishwasher and was able to fix. If you're taking it to work, I would just make sure it's totally dry, put my powder in and fill with water/milk once you get to work. Personally, I keep one at work with a bottle of protein mix. Good luck!

Yeah, locking mechanism breaks if you drop it on the lid. You can purchase replacement lids and the plastic bottle itself is solid.

I purchased this bottle and I have not had any problems with the cap accidentally opening. I carry the bottle in my bag with my books, cell phone, tablet, etc. The cap is secure and stays tight withstanding movement very well.

Same issue here... In the process of cleaning it out, I saw that the small plastic ring had fallen off and was at the bottom of the bottle. I reattached it and Viola! It started working again!

Well, I just opened mine and you are right. Mine has a big hole as well. And it is hard to purchase droppers for these bottles, darn it.

Hello Kathleen, I had the same frustration for a few minutes until I accidentally squeezed the cap and, "Pop!" It opened. Now, I realized that the design is clever to prevent accidental opening from pulling on the cap.Hope that helps.

I've bought two of these. The first one, I was not able to. The second one didn't really have that problem.My experiences from the first one was that no matter how tightly I screwed the cap on, it would still leak if the bottle was on its side. I never had an issue from either of mine leaking from the cap when it was right-side up. If it leaks from that position, you probably should get a new one because that's not supposed to happen whatsoever.

I've ordered 4 of these pill containers, and they are all easy to open. You could try using something like Vaseline to rub on the lid and/or container at the top. Perhaps you should return this for a replacement.

I have not had any problems with mine... Sometimes if you do not line up the bottom right when you screw them on they will leak (just like anything with a screw cap). What I noticed is that water can get stuck in the bottom (Between the white "ring" and the bottle plastic) and it seems like the bottle is leaking but its not.

Rub some soapy water on it to see where its coming from, if it's the pin take it to be replaced since the valve stem isn't sitting right. If it's close to the bottle on the bonnet, it may have loosened some so you can retighten the valve assembly to the bottle.

Something must be wrong with it, I've never had any bad tastes with any of the bottles that I've purchased. Maybe contact seller about a replacement.

I haven't had any problems, although I usually don't transport liquids in them. This is my second set and I just love them. This set seems to be made better. The lids lock much better then the previous set.

The cap snaps closed secure not to drip when tilted. It remains attached when lifted up. No loose parts. The lid is like a little lever that lifts the lid up and can stay there on its own. Or snap shut. I like it more than cork bottles or those flipping lids. These do not drip and leak all over. I cook a lot and fell in love when I bought these. They were supposed to be a temporary fix and I ended up keeping the set and ordering more for gifts. My mother now uses it and loves it as well.

I have had to get new bottles. There may be a way to rework the bottle top, but I don't know how. The refills are readily available tho.

We just started carrying the Life-Flo Pure Magnesium Oil on our product line. This is the first time we have heard of the bottle breaking after a couple uses. We will definitely look into this and we really appreciate your feedback.
