I've been getting from SHO for a number of years now and have a variety of bottles and accessories. So when I saw the new NEWT bottle I could see it would be perfect for me and it is. It is easy to take apart and clean properly as you can see in the photo. But another great thing is the rubber ring on the base. I'm often knocking bottle over/dropping them and this has helped me immensely keeping them sturdy and steady. I've always found SHO customer survive excellent although I've not needed it this time. SHO bottles don't leak and there's a variety of shapes and sizes.
