This bottle is expensive. There are ones on the market that are much less expensive but I went with VitaJuwel because I know it is good quality. I was disappointed that the stones in the bottle did not look as nice as the ones in the photo though, and competitors' versions look prettier too. It's a little thing, I know, but still, it's disappointing.This water bottle is worth the price. Water tastes more pure and is so delicious. I read that the stones help to make the water alkaline so I used my test strips and tested both water from the tap and then tap water out into the vitajuwel. I'm happy to say that their claims are true. It was more alkaline than some fancy alkaline waters I've purchased in the past.I've not had any trouble with water leaking. Just make sure parts are screwed on tightly. I am giving this 4 stars because the product I received had the lid scratched up.Also, it's a good thing to invest in a neoprene cover for this glass water bottle. I found a brand on Amazon and they have lots of patterns to choose from for about 10 bucks. Well worth the money to protect your vitajuwel investment. I plan to ask for other crystals for Christmas because I love it so much. I take my bottle everywhere with me and I notice I'm drinking so much more water now.Unfortunately these bottles are beautiful but when you take it apart to clean and reassemble they leak. I replaced the first one and the second does the same thing. Once you put the bottom back on it turns within itself so you can’t get it off to try and adjust the gasket. So, it is a waste of money.NICE QUALITY, PREMIUM FEEL.Absolutely love this water bottle! I got it as a gift for my girlfriend that loves all things crystals and she is absolutely over the moon. She takes it with her everywhere. Extremely high quality and sturdy. Crystals are even more beautiful in person.I love the bottle but I broke the inner crystal unit when washing the bottle... hope I can just get a replacement of the crystal unit.I have had this bottle before but broke. So I ordered this one to replace it. To my surprise this bottle is rusting, and getting black algae inside on the bottom right under Krystals. It almost feels like it is not a legit bottle.Get ready for everyone asking you about your water bottle….Gorgeous bottle, thick glass, very well-made. Positive vibes and clean fresh tasting water. I couldn’t be happier!”Not worth the price. Don’t bother. It’s a luxury and superficial item.Ich war skeptisch und bin wirklich erstaunt, dass es eine Wirkung auf den Geschmack hat. Habe tatsächlich Experimente unter möglichst gleichen Bedingungen durchgeführt und ich muss sagen: das ist wirklich eine großartige Sache. Gebe ich nicht mehr her und man sieht mich nicht mehr ohne. :DThe article is really very pretty however I was disappointed at the quality. Having used it for around a month (I bought 3!) with proper cleaning etc. there was mold inside which I have not been able to reduce.It is very sad given the price and will send it back.Die Flasche kam gut verpackt an und sieht sehr hochwertig aus. Jedoch ist mir beim trinken aufgefallen , dass das untere Teil undicht ist. Habe selbst versucht daran zu drehen, aber es lässt sich nicht bewegen. Schade, für einen stolzen Preis von über 50€. Daher geht die Flasche leider zurück
