The Ultimate Candy Coated Owala Buying Guide: Sizes, Features, and Stock Tips
By Marcus Vance
Is the Candy Coated Owala completely leakproof?
Yes. When the spring-assisted lid is pushed down and the carry loop handle is clicked into the locked downward position over the button, the bottle will not leak even when turned upside down or shaken vigorously.
Can I put hot coffee or carbonated soda inside the FreeSip?
No. The FreeSip is engineered strictly for cold, non-carbonated beverages. Hot liquids can generate internal steam pressure that violently forces boiling liquid through the straw when opened, presenting a burn hazard. Carbonated drinks produce gas pressure that compromises the airtight silicone seals.
Does the 32 oz Candy Coated bottle fit inside standard car cup holders?
Generally no. The 32 oz FreeSip has a base diameter of 3.43 inches, which exceeds the standard 3.15-inch opening found in most automotive cup holders. For regular commuting, the 24 oz model remains the recommended choice.
Where can I find replacement straws and silicone lid gaskets?
Owala sells replacement lid accessory kits directly on its official website, including multi-packs of food-grade silicone gaskets and reusable straws trimmed to fit 24 oz, 32 oz, and 40 oz vessels.
