MultiDrink Cap with Straw

I like it okay, but is the lid supposed to come with a straw attachment to reach the bottom of the bottle (mine did not) or am I supposed to turn the bottle upside down and drink it like a hamster (lol) when using the straw feature?

I too have an issue with the airflow from the straw. Sometimes it’s very easy to drink from, great flow, and other times it’s extremely difficult. I can’t figure out what the difference is or how to fix it. It can be totally fine ands easy to drink from, then I set it down for a couple hours and come back to it and it’s impossible. I had the same issue with the same cap 10 years ago.

Lovely cap when it works. The straw doesn’t fully open much of the time, needing to be closed and reopened a few times before it allows full flow. I have had to replace it once as the straw gasket got stuck closed.

If a redesigned straw version was introduced, I would immediately swap.

I like the bottle but the lid leaks, the straw doesn’t work. So sad. I still use it, but I use the small drink port. Disappointing

This cap is the epitome of amazing. It is so flexible, it has a little handle!!! The cap is surprisingly easy to hand wash and its also dishwasher safe! How? The little water straw is such a unique addition and they do not spill so long as you remember to shut them right. And the lock feature is really useful too. This thing is convenient, functional, and unbreakable. Slightly ugly but worth the trade for functionality, I recommend this for everyone, especially clumsy people like me.

Leaks. The straw pokes out at an odd angle and the smaller spout is unusable because the lid leaks. If not for the leakage it would be a pretty good product, but that’s a fatal flaw for me.

I bought it for the straw and that stopped functioning after several months — can’t suck water up out of it. It also leaks really bad. After about a year of using this cap, I dropped my bottle and the top part of the cap broke in half. The only thing I like is the size of the narrow mouth opening.

I have had two of these lids that I used on my nalgenes. I love nalgenes bottle and have been using them for over 20 years. However I feel like their lid design needs work. Both of my multifunction lids broke just from having my water bottle slip out of my backpack. Also the straw does not reach far enough down when using the lid with a standard 32oz nalgenes bottle. Honestly I wish they would ditch the straw and just make a durable lid with a small screw on cap.

Leaking, can be solved by cutting off the bottom light grey portion of the cap. It is well engineered, then a designer came along and made the bottom longer to fit the retainer. Just cut it off.

We keep replacing these because the silicone valve inside the straw mechanism somehow gets misaligned after a while and either reduces or completely blocks the flow of water. Nalgene has replaced the caps for free, but after a while, it just gets ridiculous going through the customer service requests. I’ve also had the lid crack across the middle if the bottle falls and the spout side hits first. I would stop buying these, but my son really likes the functionality while it works. They also leak after a while. I wish their caps were the same level of durability as their bottles.

Nalgene is famous for being indestructible, but this lid only lasted one trip with my kid. He dropped his bottle once, and the lid is useless. The size of bottle he has means the regular replacement loop is too big for his water bottle, so I either Have to buy this replacement or toss the whole bottle. Disappointed.

Fits my 24oz Nalgene bottle, but the water flow from the straw is very limited. It’s very hard to suck the water from the bottle. Plus, like others have said it leaks.

I think I can speak for all …WE BEG OF YOU… make this exact cap without the straw. Plllleeeease. It would be perfect and wouldn’t leak. most hikers don’t care about straws.

I had have this bottle with this cap type for 5 months and I will say, it does leak but overall, its a convenient container to take with you anywhere. I’ve attached a key ring with a basic metal clip on the lid-to-cap plastic piece and its pretty useful, tho kinda odd to have it face upwards all the time. Great concept, tho could use a redesign on the vent making it stable.

Bought 2 and the straw stopped working in both in just a week. The plastic mouthpiece misaligns with the seal and makes it unusable, clearly a bad design. Also leaks lots.

It leaks. Too bad. Also the sipping device is at a weird awkward angle sticking out at a right angle.

works well! bought it so i could drink out of my nalgene while I drove and it does the job. does leak a good amount though.

it’s perfect !! i’m so glad i bought this for my wide mouth 32 oz bottle, i hated drinking out of my water bottle without a straw lid. i also love the little spout you can drink out of too. highly recommend this cap !!

I LOVE this cap. I bought a bunch for my family and friends because everyone NEEDS the MultiDrink. Easy to use, no spillage, and if it breaks/stops working, you can get a new one by emailing customer service! Absolutely would recommend getting this!

How about a chug bottle cap and skip the whole straw thing. AND – Tether the whole cap to the bottle then tether the chug cap to the cap… or use a hinge or something.

You are close… If you can get it right I may even give up my Nathan bottles and begin to use your bottles again.

Love this. I would give it 5 stars if the threads on the top small cap were water bottle size. Then it would fit most of the water filters.

I am grateful that you sell replacements of these lids. I love that I can drink through the straw and then use the cap to pour out of during camp cooking. I also love that it is the wide mouth lid because it fits the bottles that I use with my water filter. They don’t stand up to abuse the same way as your bottles do but that’s alright because they should be replaced more often than the bottles anyway.

Leaks! My son received a bottle for a gift with this lid and it leaks. We believe it is through the straw area. We love nalgene water bottles but this one disappoints.

I should have read the reviews sooner because this cap does in fact leak. Though I love the straw function because I drink way more water with the straw than without it, the rubber stopper came off at some point and now if it tips it’s definitely going to leak. I’m going to get another one just because of the straw, but I would advise any potential buyers not to purchase one and instead get a nalgene bottle with the narrow opening.

Good idea but the product leaks, disappointing.

I love this cap. It only leaks if you don’t have the straw closed properly. Both the straw *and* the smaller opening lid make drinking on the run MUCH easier + prevents my husfriend from making me spill on my shirt when we’re driving around.

seems like a good idea but leaks. leaks Leaks

Leaks. The small air valve has a rubber stopper on it, or is suppose to. One of ours didn’t come with one. Stamped in the plastic is Made In China, also. Not necessarily a horrible thing, but the page says Made in the USA, and it is most likely Assembled In The USA.

Bottles are pretty durable, with the aforementioned valve issue being a major annoyance.

Horrible cap. I should of read the reviews.

Leaks from the vent very easily.

The straw stopped working after like 3 weeks like most reviews also say ftw.

Absolutely love this lid! I purchased several and will purchase more. The versatility is great and much easier to drink while active than an open 32 oz wide mouth opening. Well done, Nalgene!

I really like the cap but the straw stopped working within a couple of weeks. I would get another one if I thought it would last.

Leaks on my ultralight 32oz bottle. Attempted to use for a bikepacking setup in a stem bag. All the sloshing from riding my bike made it worse.

I love this option, I can’t spill on myself when sipping through the mouthpiece. 🙂

But, there are 2 issues:

1) How to completely clean the elbow tube inside the lid? I haven’t yet found a brush small & flexible enough for that. Also, the only way to replace that is to buy a new lid.

2) It leaks if it’s not upright & full enough; there’s a (much-needed & very functional) vent at the top that doesn’t stay sealed consistently.

Great concept, loved it for the first quarter of my first hike with it, then realized how much it was leaking. Finding a replacement cap now :/

I love this cap as I always end up spilling water all over me without it. I’ve had it for 2 years and the only way this item leaks is if you don’t close the straw fully or don’t twist the cap tight enough. We must be smarter than the lid.

I love this item. Thank you, Nalgene!

I really love the style but it leaks. I thought maybe it was just mine, but I see in the reviews that others are having the same issue. It’s pretty frustrating having to make sure it’s upright constantly.

I really like the cap but mine also leaks around the threads, making it nearly useless. I am using it on an HDPE Ultralite bottle.

I have had this cap for several years and it hasn’t leaked on me. I am actually looking to buy more for my grandchildren.

Absolute garbage.

I love my big 48 oz bottles but it’s a pain in the butt to drink from the wide mouth and walk at the same time. This lid *seems* to solve that problem, but it leaks constantly in multiple places and the little side spout is totally useless.

I’ll never throw out my bottles, but Nalgene has badly missed the mark with this.

Nice cap, but leaks…

Buenísimo

can be very usefull but water is leaking from this cap, so you cant trust your bottle and let it in bag. 🙁
