Should my growler be leaking when turned on it's side with this lid/straw attached or do I have a faulty lid?

your lid should definitely not be leaking, I do know sometimes that my lid will gather a few drops around the edge when I first put it on but its not a leak... after the drop or two comes out from when I first tighten the lid down on the rim it doesn't drip anymore.

The straw lid does leak. It is really designed to be upright. It's the one downside.

I purchased two of these lids for both the 64oz Growler and 40oz bottle. Neither of the lids leak on either bottle. I would guess that you may have been unlucky and received a faulty lid, or it was not threaded onto the bottle properly.

As long as the flap is closed you can turn it upside down and it will not leak. SEND IT BACK!Good luck,Mike

I have a 40 oz Hydro Flask with the lid/straw attachment and I have not experienced any problems with leaking while the attachment is in the closed position. If yours leaks, you may have a faulty attachment.

No it shouldn't leak. Try fighting up the lid when closing and try push the straw all the way cause that's what I had when I first had

You may have a defective tank. Mine screwed in tight to the tank and there is no leak

I have not had that problem..the only problem I have had is soda fizz leaking out the little air ventunder the straw.....resolved that by adding ice first._

where is the leak in the bottom cap , if so check to see if the gasket is there. and also see if its not ripped/ torn anywheres along the edges . if it the little plunger make sure there is no scale build up on it that might keep it open when you turn the reservoir back over when you carry it . other wise it may have a crack some place .

I've never had a problem with mine--I've had it two years and it still works great. I'm sorry yours is leaking. Have you contacted the manufacturer?

I haven't had any problem with mine but if is leaking something other than coffee I would sure return it!!!!

Mine did this at first. I turned it off, took off the lid and reseated the motor to the top of the unit. No more leakage. I believe I just did not have it seated properly the first time. It has been working absolutely fantastic.

It hasn't leaked with the 3 i bought, even lying down or shaken up. Maybe there is something wrong with the seal on yours?

The little flip part that covers the drinking hole in the top does not seal tightly, so if the cup is turned on its side, the liquid will drip out. As others have said, this is a great thermos if it it stays upright, but if you need a complete seal, get another. Hope this helps :)

I have found if the pot isn't sitting properly on the burner it will leak while brewing. Like if it is off center and one side of the pot is higher then the other.

Is it leaking the 'air' at the point where the aluminum bottom threads into the black top? If so, I would (which you may have already tried) try to make sure that the inner "straw/stem" piece is seated/centered properly and the top is as snug (without breaking it, obviously) as you can get it. I've had the situation - where mine also leaked as it was pressurized and I had to take the top back off and re-seat the stem piece. Now that I'm more careful to make sure it's seated right, I haven't had any more trouble (and I use it all the time). Also, make sure there is no debris that may be keeping the seal from seating properly. Hope this helps. Good luck.

I actually haven't noticed that. I would either contact hydroflask and have them replace your lid. I think in my household we have 5 and none of them leak.

Being obsessive I check to make sure the rubber gasket is fitting properly and not cracked every time I tighten the cap. My cans have never leaked when on their side, however I store them upright whenever possible. As the cans are not vented I never leave them out in the sun or store the a hot area.

i lost mine too, but it seemed to function okay without leaking. however it may eventually. i would look for a replacement if you are going to keep the unit.

Mine has not leaked at all. The spigot will clog occasionally with bits of lemon, etc. but other than that i had no problems. The lid is snug but not airtight. I will buy another if this one were to break.

Hum, not sure. I do the hole in the other end, but not sure that is the problem. You are putting the lid on, right? If so it might just be a defective unit.

I dont think it is normal, but i hear this particular item has this flaw compared to other models. I started to double check the rubber ring and the lid for any food debris left, and normally the leaking didnt happen. Hope you try that.
