Giraffe BottleHands Free Drinking System, Clear Bottle (36 inch / 91 cm)

This thing works very well. I use it for the guy I take care of whose sugar gets low. If I leave the house, I fill it with a sugary drink so that he can get some sugar into his system when I can't help him. He can't do it himself (he's quadriplegic) so I can set this up at a perfect height so that he can access it. However, it's unfortunate that it's so expensive. The people that would use this are generally disabled, which means they're probably on a very low, fixed income. As with nearly every accessible item, it's way overpriced. He wouldn't have been able to use this if I hadn't bought it for him.

The bottle itself is small enough that it would require multiple refillings in a day. It also leaches a plastic taste into water. I would use the straw on my preferred bottle but both the straw fitting and cap are not designed to a more universal fitting. It takes a lot of force to take a sip, which makes this useless on my bad days.Would not recommend for anyone with difficulty walking or lack of hand dexterity (frequent refills with an awkward cap). Would also not recommend for anyone with muscle weakness where you’re not able to create enough suction to draw a sip. Probably better using a standard backpack bladder for hiking.
