DYLN Living Water Bottle - Alkaline Antioxidant water with VitaBead Diffuser Bamboo Cap and Silicone Sleeve Grip (750ml, Increases pH up to 9+)

Dylan claims to increase pH to 9+ . I followed the instructions. After 1 hour, I did my own research my using professional drops and strips. The Dylan water is only reaching a 6.5 at best which is not even neutral. I then tested a glass of my R.O. Water (Reverse Osmosis) from my kitchen and added a small pinch of baking soda . The pH reading on my own water reached 8. I then tested the TDS (Total Disolved Solids) The water coming out of my kitchen R.O.water was 14 ppm TDS and the Dylan water was 84 ppm TDS. My conclusion is that this Dylan water is not at all what it claims . If you want your water/body to be Alkaline. Just put a pinch of baking soda in your water glass/bottle instead . The bottle is attractive however, it is not insulated . It does not keep water cold . I’m sending mine back !

Completely pointless to buy this product because it requires filtered purified water for use. Furthermore you need unconventional tools to remove the Diffuser before First use which were provided but still unable to remove Diffuser.You need to buy bottled water to use this product which why would you not just buy PH8 or PH9 water instead of wasting time & money on this.Getting a refund from the manufacturer still hasn’t been accomplished after 9 emails.Lesson Learned: Do Not Buy This Product!

First day with this bottle, + new digital PH tester, + new Katadyn filter. Tap water here is already quite alk-- mid/high 8s. So I tested this bottle with both unfiltered & filtered tap water. Important difference, coz the Katadyn alone (ceramic & carbon elements) raised PH 0.5 - 0.7, into the low/mid 9s, single handedly!Happy to report, this bottle also works! Raised my unfiltered tap water 0.5 - 0.8, into the mid 9s. Similar result with the higher PH filtered water-- bumped it up to the high 9s; even saw the tester briefly exceed 10 while it was still settling down, when in landed in 9.9x area.I'd give this bottle 4 stars with a good redesign of the way the filter element attaches, and the tool for removing/attaching it. And I'd go 5 stars for consistent +1.0 alk raises.Edit 9/1/18: filtered water in the bottle overnight, around 8 hrs, with several bottle shakes during, tested 10.6 in the morning, fresh out of the bottle. So, time in the bottle matters! I imagine the steepest alk rise happens in the first ~20-30m, then becoming a slow steady rise over the subsequent hours. I do find that the alk level slowly falls with the H2O sitting in an open glass at room temp. For example, that fresh out of bottle water which tested 10.5, an hour later sitting in an open glass, tested 10.25; and in my experience it will fall further, below 10 somewhere. In this way, PH is frankly a mystery to me-- like, what about the nature of the water changed in that ~hour? Regardless, this bottle is happy to have you drink straight from it, which = the highest PH level.

Like it as a water bottle but it does not hold temperature, i.e., iced water. You need to alkaline the water and put it in another bottle like a hydroflask. Secondly, they don't recommend adding flavorings to the bottle. Thirdly, I think you need to remove the diffuser to wash it with soap. But for what it is, it's a good product. I like it.

Nice looking bottle but does not raise ph at all. I did several tests with no change. I would like to return the items but my wife threw the packaging away.

I’ve been using this water bottle for about nine months, and it has rust in the bottom and on the insertable filter. Disappointed because it was pretty, and I enjoyed using it.

Very metallic taste. The tool to remove the filter was a little tricky.

Good fproduct finish

The bottle works as intended, the opening for drinking is too big, it had to be to remove and install new alcalizing devices however, you have to stand still or stop your car to drink from it or your going to spill the contents. They should have installed a sip lid to make it easier to drink without spilling.
