I waited three weeks for mine to arrive, which I hadn’t been aware of when I bought it. I am used to things arriving quickly from Amazon so I wonder why this occurred. I also hadn’t realized that “sparkly” meant it would be plastered with glitter! I am in my 70’s so I find this amusing.I will say the colors are gorgeous. Another reviewer said the glitter is falling off and that concerns me. I’m just not a fan of the mess that glitter makes when it falls off. I guess I will wait and see. The size and shape of the bottle is quite beautiful. It’s more slender and graceful than my other bottles. The perfect use for this one will be for travel. It’s just the right size for me to fill it with water before leaving to go to the airport, then dump the remaining water before going through security with it. Once through security I can refill it for the actual flight. This is a great size to put in my traveling beverage holder, a new addition to my travel items. It attaches to the handle of my carryon so I can keep my left hand free while using my right hand to pull my rolling suitcase. This bottle is the last piece I need to complete my travel set.As others have said the small neck is a cleaning challenge. I have narrow bottle brushes and I clean these by adding two drops of bleach into hot water and dish detergent, fill it over the top and insert the top. I let it sit for several hours. The water is still quite warm. I wish I knew how the glitter was going to fare in the dishwasher. For now my hand washing will be enough. Personally I like drinking from a smaller neck. It’s just my preference. All in all, a very good bottle.
