I have 2 of these and swear by them.

They fit in a standard bottle cage nicely. They will keep something hot or cold for hours. So they work well for both water and coffee. (And they don't hold the coffee smell/taste after washing so you can switch to water)

There are a THOUSAND options for similar bottles. Some are complete junk. Some are ridiculously expensive. (This same bottle made by Yeti costs like twice this much. For a bottle.) This one works just as well as a Yeti at half the price.

They have them at Target too. But I've never seen the unpainted ones there. I recommend the unpainted ones because I think the powder coating on these is cheap. All the ones at Target are chipped. I think a bottle cage would kill the coating. But the stainless steel unfinished one that I have, not a scratch on it after 6 months of daily use and regular rides in an aluminum bottle cage.

I have tested them by putting hot water and ice in them (not at the same time obviously) and left them on my kitchen counter. The ice is still frozen after 24 hours. The water was still hot at least overnight.
Thanks for the input, I was looking at the yeti rambler but seen a lot of mixed reviews. This looks like a good low risk choice
