I PURCHASED A HYDROFLASK TUMBLER FROM A LOCAL STORE. I SUBMITTED A WARRANTY CLAIM WITH HYDROFLASK DIRECTLY ON 8/21/25. I RECEIVED A RESPONSE FROM HYDROFLASK ON 8/26 ASKING ME TO PROVIDE PHOTOS AND A VIDEO. I DID THIS, AND THEN RECEIVED NO FURTHER COMMUNICATION DESPITE SENDING FOLLOW-UP EMAILS. I THEN SUBMITTED ANOTHER CLAIM ON 9/3/25. I RECEIVED A RESPONSE ON 9/5/25, TELLING ME THAT THEY WOULD PROVIDE ME WITH A "COURTESY REPLACEMENT". IN ORDER TO DO THIS, I SENT THEM A VIDEO OF ME WRITING ON THE TUMBLER IN PERMANENT MARKER. I SUBMITTED THIS IMMEDIATELY THE SAME DAY. I HAVE RECEIVED ZERO RESPONSES FROM HYDROFLASK DESPITE SENDING MULTIPLE FOLLOW UP EMAILS ASKING THEM TO SIMPLY LET ME KNOW WHERE THINGS STAND. I NOW HAVE A BOTTLE WITH PERMANENT MARKER ON IT, AND ZERO FAITH THAT THEY WILL STAND BY THEIR WARRANTY.

Hi Mr. ********** Thank you so much for reaching out. My name is ** ***, and I am the ***************** Manager here at Hydro Flask.
I cancelled 2 of the 3 warranty claims and placed an order for a replacement 32oz Travel Tumbler in black. I will provide you with tracking via email as soon as the order ships. I apologize for our delay in responding!
Please let me know if you have any additional questions or concerns.

Complaint: 23868601

I am rejecting this response because:
1. I continue to communicate with the ******************* about my claim, providing everything that they ask, and as before, my emails are ignored once I actually provide said info. in the format that they ask for.
2. The order referenced above has yet to be shipped. I will close this claim once the item has actually shipped and I have a tracking number in hand.

Sincerely,

Hydro flask is not honoring their product warranty. I have submitted two items for warranty. One being a 32 oz bottle water bottle where they put layer is peeling up. They are refusing to cover this saying wear and tear. I am a loyal customer and sent them a picture of the bottles we have. Wear and tear is dings bc I drop them. I have never had a bottle where the outer layer is peeling. I have hydro flask bottles that over ten years old and dont do this. This is manufacturer warranty defect and they are refusing to replace this. Also showing a 12 oz mug where the finish is coming off and it looks dull. Again no other bottle I have is doing this. Its not normal hydroflask quality but if its not fixed under warranty I will never support this company again and will buy yeti moving forward. Their customer service is much better than this joke scamming people. Advertising warranty that they USE to easily replace and now they look for any excuse to not help a loyal long term customer. Look at the photo of multiple bottles not having these issues.

Thank you!

The cs *** finally agrees to rightfully ***lace both, only after multiple emails and it wasnt until I threatened filing with the BBB that she actually agreed. I have taken the videos needed and submitted those but still waiting to hear back that ***lacements are being shipped. Thank you.

On 5/10/25 I purchased a 20L soft cooler directly from the Hydroflask website. The website advertised that this cooler keeps items cold for up to 24 hours - and obviously some deviation from the 24 hours was to be expected, however, this cooler didnt keep things cold for even five hours (even filled with ice) in a neutral environment (indoors in 70F). I used the cooler two or three times with the same result. I am a loyal Hydro flask customer - and I love everything else Ive purchased from them: bottles, coozies, travel mugs, wine glasses etc. which I why I had no hesitation in purchasing this cooler. I reached out to Hydro flask customer service today (6/2/25) via phone to explain my concerns and initiate a return, and I was denied. I was told that since I had already used the product it was not eligible for return - even though it was agreguously misrepresented on their website. I was offered no sympathy, and was told that I could make a complaint under the manufacturer warranty and the cooler would be replaced with another identical cooler. I am absolutely disgusted by the way this interaction was handled, and would advise others to spend their money elsewhere. This is how they treat their customers of 10+ years. I am so sorely disappointed and saddened.

Hi ****. My name is ** *** and I am the ***************** Manager here at Hydro Flask.
Are you using ice packs or ice cubes in your soft cooler? They have been out for over a year and we have not received any complaints about it staying cold. We would be happy to set up a return for replacement - there may be an issue with the interior insulation.
I will wait to hear back from you!

I am rejecting this response because: I am not satisfied with an identical replacement. I purchased this cooler less than 30 days ago, and I am simply asking for a refund.

Sincerely,

We will make an exception and allow you to return the cooler for a refund as a one time courtesy. I will send you the return details via email from our portal. Please reach out of you have any additional questions.

Ordered a water bottle with engravement and an extra cap on 9/28/24. After 3 weeks, I only received the cap. In between, I sent them email inquire about the order status and didn't get any feedback. On 10/22/24, I called the ** to check the status. They told me the water bottle was canceled due to inventory issue. They never sent notification or put that information in the online order tracking system. I asked for refund for the shipping since I didn't get the main item. They said no. Very bad online purchase experience.

Hello Mr. *** My name is ** *** and I am the ***************** Manager here at Hydro Flask. Thank you so much for reaching out to me!
My apologies that you were charged shipping for this order when we were out of stock on an item that took you over the free shipping threshold. This should have been rectified when you called in. Again, my apologies for the oversight. I will make sure to coach my agent about this policy so it does not happen again.
You were never charged for the bottle, just the cap and the shipping. Please see your email - I sent you a copy of what you were charged. I have refunded the full amount of $14.64 that you paid for the inconvenience. We appreciate your business and thank you for contacting us!

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is fine to me. However, I want to point out that my issue was not only about the shipping charge. It's more about how the company cancelled an item without letting the customer know. It was a customized birthday gift but in the end, it never came except the useless accessory for it.

Sincerely,

I bought a small mug from this company a few years ago. The mug still keeps beverages hot but the lid has literally come unglued from the base of the lid. That is not my problem that is a poorly made product. Hydro Flask would not even give me a credit for another item and I have spent a lot of money with this company as well as recommended them to others, but no more. I gave them pictures at least twice of the product but I received a sorry, not sorry response from them. I want a replacement item.

Hello. My name is ** *** and I am the ***************** Manager here at Hydro Flask. Thank you for reaching out to me.
The last email that we have is requesting specific photos so we can verify the authenticity of your mug. We are still waiting for the front photo showing our logo. I attached the email response that we sent to you on May 7th.
I will wait for the final photo and we will send you return instructions. We will absolutely replace it under our warranty.
In addition, the mugs must be hand washed. They are not built for the high heat in a dishwasher. I have attached the care instructions, as well. I will wait to hear back from you with the final photo.
Thank you,

I rec'd order ********** and one item was missing. Upon calling customer service, I was asked to file a claim with ****** Claim was filed on 5/16/24; however, I am not sure why I was told that this is my second order with this issue as it is my first. I would like to request a refund for the missing item, thanks.

Good morning. My name is ** *** and I am the ******** Services Manager here at Hydro Flask. Thank you for reaching out and I was able to review your account.
Order # ********** was placed on 4/25 for 3 coolers and you notified us that one cooler was missing from your package. We gave you a refund for that cooler and you elected to return the other 2 so a full refund was issued for this order.
Order # ********** was placed on 4/29 for 3 coolers and for some reason, that order did not ship out of our warehouse. We gave you a full refund for the order.
Order # ********** was placed on 5/8 for 2 coolers and you notified us that again, one cooler was missing from the shipment. We advised that we can not refund the missing item as we did this for you on 4/25 as a one time courtesy. We needed you to fill out a missing package claim with ***** and once completed, we would reship the missing cooler. You reached back out to us to say that the 2nd cooler arrived and you wanted to return both.
We sent you a prepaid label and are waiting for receipt of your return and an inspection to be done by our quality team. Once this has been completed, you will be refunded for order # **********.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions.
Thank you,

My Hydroflask rusted on the inside within a year or two. RUST. Contacted them and they want me to spend $12 in return shipping to receive a replacement for a clearly defective product. Replace the product. Forcing people to return the bottle for some inspection when the photos clearly show you the rust is a deflection of warranty.
Business Response
Date: 04/24/2024
This was sent to the consumer from our CRM. We have made an exception, but this is not our policy. Once we receive the requested information, this will be resolved and a replacement will be sent out.
Thank you so much for reaching out. My name is ** *** and I am the ******** Services Manager here at Hydro Flask.

We do offer a lifetime warranty on all of our bottles and we normally require an inspection at our warehouse before releasing the warranty replacement. This was added to our website in 2019:

8/8/2019 Update: YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO SHIP YOUR WARRANTY PRODUCT BACK TO HYDRO FLASK FOR REVIEW PRIOR TO US SHIPPING YOU A WARRANTY REPLACEMENT PRODUCT.

As a one time courtesy, I will just require the following and this will eliminate the need to send the bottle back to us. Again, this is not the norm, but I would be happy to make an exception for you this time.

Please provide photos of the following:

Photo of the Front of the Flask showing the Logo & Name with ENTIRE ITEM in Frame
Photo of the Bottom of the Flask clearly depicting the writing underneath.
Photo of Damage if Applicable.
Please also confirm your physical shipping address.

Once I receive the requested information, we can start processing your warranty!
