I got my first Ello bottle in 2017. I’ve use it daily since then and it has held up really well. Since I do use it every day I had wash it mostly, but It does go in the dishwasher wherever I do a normal load and has not had any problem. I just took the attached photos Dec 4, 2022. As you can see it is still in good condition. After 5 years there are some stains on the plastic part that seals the lid and the gasket has a small tear. I use a straw cleaner to get underneath if cleaning after drinking anything other than water. So over the years that gasket has gotten a little rough treatment. The interior is not stained at all. If you clean this bottle daily you will not have any problems. Just understand that the surface is painted and paint can scratch. (My Contego bottle was a complete mess after a only a few months!)
This bottle does a pretty good job of keeping beverages hot and does a very good job of keeping them cold, especially if you use ice. It has a excellent seal when closed, even after 5 years. I like the cork-like bottom (it is fake cork) as it is easy on whatever surface you place it on and does not slide. The weight and width of the bottom also make it less easy to tip over that the typically shaped bottle. For use in my car the cup holder insert has to be removed. This might be an issue for some cars.
This bottle is so attractive and a pleasure to use, that I’m here for another one! The black looks cool and elegant, so I’m choosing it this time. While I’m here I’m just writing this review to let others know my experience with the bottle long term.
