Bought it thinking that it'll fit my 16oz Nalgene bottle, since the product is for "wide mouth" bottles, and Nalgene calls its 16oz bottles "wide mouth". Unfortunately, it doesn't fit, will have to return it.

I've been using one of these for a couple months now on a 32 oz. Nalgene bottle.

This was a recommended item when I was looking at water bottles, and I can see why. I liked the idea of the 32 oz. reusable BPA free Nalgene bottle, but I held out for quite a while because I could see myself dumping half it's contents down my front if I wasn't careful. One of these pretty much takes care of that problem. I say pretty much because unless it is positioned precisely even with the lip of the bottle, it can leak a bit when you go to take a drink. It's nothing too bad, but I have gotten a few drops down my front when it wasn't positioned properly. Not a deal breaker. It has never completely slipped and wound up bouncing around in the bottle itself. The silicone (don't quote me on that) hold it in place pretty well.

I should also clarify something else for potential buyers; the large hole in the photo is not the drinking hole, that's the one for air to get in, or to refill your bottle without removing it. You drink from the beveled cutout opposite it. At first I was worried that it would not allow for good flow, but that was quickly put to rest. If you can drink faster than it can pour it out, my hat's off to you, but it's fine for me.

Cleaning is easy enough; push it into the bottle, add water and a few drops of dish cleaner, shake, rinse, refill. I can't say about putting in the dishwasher, but I guess you could.

Overall I'm very happy with it, and recommend it to anyone with, or looking to get, a wide mouth water bottle. As far as I'm concerned these should come with the bottles they fit in the first place.

I've used one of these in a 750 ml Camel Back bottle and a 1 L Nalgene bottle, and it works great in both. I've also given several of these as gifts and they work much better than the hard plastic versions, as the flexible silicone is easier to push in and out and creates a better seal by molding itself to the opening of the bottle. I've never had any problems with taste or smell, as the material they are made from seems pretty neutral. Overall these are excellent.

I was looking for something to control the flow more out of my wide mouth nalgene 32oz bottle. This products does that extremely well. I loved having a wide mouth bottle because I could easiley clean it and pack it full of ice. The only down side is when you try to drink it fast most of it goes around your mouth other then in it. Very simple product and extremely well designed!!! Recommend for anyone with a large mouth bottle!!!

I like my big 32oz Nalgene bottle, but I tend to dribble down my shirt unless I'm standing perfectly still - especially if there's ice cubes involved. This SplashGuard has fixed my issues for under $3 and I am very pleased. Mine is Tahoe Blue and the color is very close to the picture. It did have a slight smell straight out of the package (not bad, just a little plastic-y...the same smell anything made of silicone has) but that did not affect the water's taste. One trip through the dishwasher and it was odorless. As an added benefit, I drink more water now since I'm not so worried about spilling! :)

These splash guards do exactly what they say guard you and your clothes from getting splashed by the wide mouth of the nalgene bottles. Overall I would recommend this product.

This thing is awesome. Make sure you get the Universal (silicone) and not the Classic (hard plastic). Works great at keeping your chest dry and is still easy to fill.

This is an adorable addition to your Nalgene... I get compliments on it all the time! It is incredibly practical, because it makes the area through which water can flow smaller so it prevents accidental water spills down the front of your shirt. It makes it possible to drink while walking (I, at least, was unable to do so before). I highly recommend this product and would definitely buy it again (in fact, I did! I lost my water bottle that had my splashguard in it, so I bought the exact same one again!)

This product does exactly what it advertises. You dot not spill water on yourself anymore! I love my Nalgene, but I hated how I could not drink it in the car, when it has too much ice, or while I was on the tredmill. This completely solved that issue.

It does get a little smelly if you don't wash it (which I didn't at first..just left it in my gym locker) but now I wash it once a week and it is fine. I don't get a weird taste and it fits perfectly!

I would definitely reccommend.

This little accessory is great. For travelling around West Africa, where you can't go more than a few meters before hitting another bump or pot hole, this helps me not spill all over myself.

The only problem was that it is not quite universal. I tried it with a Target brand Nalgene-style bottle and it didn't fit, it fell right into the bottle. So I ended up buying another bottle because I knew I would want to use this little accessory. Just keep this in mind when buying this product.
