Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Bought the 0.6L Insulated Bottle, I cleaned it frequently using the instructions given on Camelbak's website...after about 6 months the plastic part of the bite valve broke off (a part that is normally non-removable). I saw there was another soft plastic tube inside of it, and I was horrified to find a considerable amount of black mildew!!! Gross! You can't see it in this pic, but there was a bunch of mildew caked down inside that recessed area, too! This bottle was cleaned about every other day during it's usage, with the cap, rubber bite valve, and straw all getting ran through the dishwasher. The hard plastic part of the bite valve, where all this mildew was, isn't removable. If it hadn't broken off, I would still be drinking this nastiness! Until Camelbak changes their design so that ALL parts of the thing can be properly cleaned, I won't be buying another one of their products. Disgusting...
