They have these in France, nice idea for recycling but they are annoying as fuck to drink out of. Also my kids (7+9) struggled to get them closed properly.

I (23) struggled to get them closed properly as well

Press it down and then if its not flat rotate the cap the wrong way round until it clicks.

Yes, I was able to do it myself, my children struggled. I'll pass your advice onto them next time we're in france......

I get what you mean. I think if it’s on the side like on the picture it’s not too bad

I found them annoying whatever way they were orientated, seemed to catch on my mouth/scratch my lip and if they didn't I expected them too and was waiting for it to happen. Hopefully they come up with a better solution.

Somebody commented a YouTube video with a cap that looked like it had a better hinge, maybe that could solve it?

I wouldn't have an issue for pouring the liquid out like the YouTube video, the hinge isn't an issue then. it's more when you're drinking out of a bottle with this on that it gets in the way. I'm all for the idea, it's just the execution that's lacking for me.

I get that. Maybe they will think of something better
