      You guys are just plain ignorant. Let's admit that this thing has a lot of cool features, like controlling the volume of the juice and even combine other juices.
      I honestly think that this thing has a potential for medical usage. Like for example, the other two vials are just juices but the third one could be a medicine or just a dedicated vitamins supplement. If you want to your drink to have 500mg og vitamin C then you can just program it to pump that amount.
      What I also liked is the tracker. You can check how much of vitamin C you previously had so you can stop pouring in more if you found that you already reached your daily max dose.
      The only thing I hate is it's price.

      AccioPotassium! I guess the only thing, although not a proper justification of the price is that you can cut down on the sodas you’re drinking if the drinks are as good as claimed. Not only are you being healthier, you are saving money there. This is still very expensive in the long run anyways. I agree with the review, if they can make the water bottle and pods cheaper, then I would totally buy the water bottle.

    Something for hipster flexing. It's not really practical if it doesn't fit in average cup holders and what if you have to leave it in your car on a hot scorching day say on a shopping trip? Also the type of people that could really use this are health conscious and probably doing some kind of activity or exercise. This means hikes, running and gyms. That means it needs to be able to stand up to a few feet drop and be waterproof. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but it's $150 plus the pods. Maybe there are those who will genuinely love it.

    If you're at home, work, etc: Just get a regular water bottle and a regular drink mixer. Stuff like Mio is much cheaper per serving and works fine.
    As an added bonus, regular water bottles have a bunch of optional features (e.g., you can get an insulated water bottle, a dishwasher safe waterbottle, a spillproof water bottle, etc.)
    Admittedly, using this water bottle gives you more smart features. However, even if it was $30 and $5/mixer, I would still stick with a normal water bottle. It remains a mystery to me why people feel the need for a smart water bottle.

    The subscription plan is actually very cheap. Also you can adjust the amount dispensed to make it easily last a month. $30 bucks a month is actually VERY cheap considering buying a drink is a few bucks at the gas station. Even if you buy say 10 or so drinks a month you save money. What I would like to see is some way to custom order flavors with type. Like choose flavors you like and pick which type (anti-oxidant, electrolyte, multivitamin) etc. I may not like certain types of flavors in the morning versus afternoon. Even better would be a flavorless option.

    First, you are right on the money with the GEEK factor. I spend around $150 for Propel Packets per month. Since I only drink water, you can easily deduct the money you would spend on Coke or Pepsi. When you only drink water, you can pay a bit more.

    2 minutes in and I'm certain I wouldn't buy it because I wouldn't need it. What a waste.
    Doesn't hold enough water; not wasting valuable space on my phone for a useless app;
    I thought that maybe the rechargeable part was a refrigeration gadget, which might have made it a little better, but since there is no way to keep the water cold, either, there's no point to spending that much for a water bottle.
    Thanks for the video, so I will never need to consider this thing again.
    Thanks for informing and entertaining us.

    pretty much aimed at the gadget geek with a lot of spare $$.... cool idea/execution, but the price is too steep for the average person

      I feel like keeping mio in your pocket is a good way to get flavored jeans

    I just keep a mio in my pocket and use it throughout the day in a regular water bottle
    $5 a week and more portable
    Not sure what problem this bottle is solving

      It’s just cool, convenient and tracks how much water you drink, if anything it’s solving how you can measure out how much water you have consumed without having to carry around a measuring cup with you

    An idea is that the water bottle is detachable and you have the flavoring as a separat thing and portable. So it gives more options more water space and possibly more effective

    If it actually pulled water from air I’d be more impressed

    Can u put it in the fridge...say overnight or whatever? I like my water super cold...even freeze it and drink it as it melts. Just wondering if it's fridge/freezer safe?

    I agree with some of the qualms with this product, but it def doubles down on the geek factor! Pretty cool!!
