STRO Portable Reusable Metal Straw with Travel Case & Built-in Cleaning Brush, Stainless Steel Straws Drinking Straw for 20 and 30 oz Tumblers, Cans, Bottles, Cups

Was a little hesitant due to lack of verbal reviews but this is a pretty good straw. The carrying case is designed pretty well in terms of functionality, though it is made out of cheaper plastic. The straw itseof is surprisingly thick (like this is not made of inferior thin metal) there is zero chance of it bending over time. There is also perfect sucking in the straw when fully assembled. It can be a bit tricky separating the straw if it's still a bit wet due to the locking grooves on the attached sections of the straw, however if you rotate the section as you try to pull them apart, it's a little easier. Would definitely buy again.

I try to avoid using the cheap plastic straws fast food and take out places give out because of the environmental clutter they create. So I've bought several portable resusable straws to use in instead. I liked this one enough that this is my second purchase of. What I like best is that when the three pieces are fitted together the straw is strong and rigid instead of being kind of wobbly feeling like some collapsible designs I've bought. Coming apart in thee sections makes is easier to clean. The carrying case for the straw holds in the pieces firmly; they don't fall out the moment the top is opened. I do wish that the cleaning brush that comes with it could also fit into that little case, but that's a minor thing for me.

Hard to detached

I really like this, I feel like this is a worthwhile product, I usually get a lot of soft drinks from my work at the skate rink, disposable cups and straws, but now I have become a little more considerate, bringing my own cup from home and now that I have my own straw I tend to bring it as well, I like the convenience of having it, I keep it attached to my key ring from my car, it is lightweight and very convenient, it is easier to keep it clean especially with that spare little brush that comes with it in the packet, it is easy to pull apart and wash. About the only negative thing about it is that only about 3/4 of an inch of the straw sticks out the top of my cup that I use so I have to pull it out a bit so I can use it until the drink is almost to the bottom then I have to tip the cup to get the rest of my drink but otherwise I like the idea of having a reusable straw.

It broke kinda easy and it’s sometimes hard to get apart but otherwise it’s a good product.

I’ve tried collapsible straws, none of them seal right so you are getting some air with your beverage like using a plastic straw with a crack in the side of it. I’ve tried glass straws, they aren’t very travel friendly and they are too thick. Non-collapsible metal straws also usually aren’t travel friendly as they dont fit well pockets and end up dirty. The same goes for silicone straws. I even tried Final Straw which awkwardly flops around and when folded in the case seems like the silicone will break eventually. This straw is slim enough, the case is nice and small, and when assembled it’s completely sealed. I love this straw and use it every time I remember to bring it. I especially like being able to use 2/3 of it for a short straw.

I worked on the ocean for many years with marine biologists. I love our planet, but I also prefer using straws when drinking. This fixed both problems!!!! It is a great quality product, with awesome cleaning ability in between each use, & really great container. I keep this on my keychain and take it everywhere with me, & do not ask for straws at restaurants or drive-through food places. "This is the best one & I love it!" Oh, and it keeps your drinks cold due to the metal used for making it.

This may sound stupid, but I didn't buy this so much for the whole plastic straw 'ecosystem/environment' topic - although that was/is a consideration. I bought this because I HATE weak straws when tangling with a thick milkshake. Hahaha. Best of both worlds. This straw breaks down into 3 sections so it's very compact. The sections connect very securely and are easy to clean. I strongly recommend this product. :)

I really wanted to like this, but it fell short imo. I love that it comes apart, but putting it back together hurts. I understand it needs a good seal to work, but the struggle and strength to connect the two metal ends to the plastic middle piece is a pita, and hurt my hands.
