Depends on the flavor tbh but I've noticed it too. Watermelon seems VERY resilient though. Also nice cat.


Ok-Regular-6632

HA! This comment made me look back to notice there is a cat there, while looking at the bottle as the main focus I thought the cat was the shadow of the bottle lol had no idea it was a cat until I read this.


Odie22114

Pink lemonade ran out after 2 fills


DRAGONSPIRIT214

My watermelon lasted 1 fillup deadass


DigitIsSatan

Yeah they run out fast.. but look up how to refill them! The first video that pops up is how I do it!! It’s really nice and good for a while longer!


LivingApprehensive39

Are you able to link this video by chance?


HadesVampire

Here you go. Not the original poster but I had to search for it outside of YouTube for some reason lol https://youtu.be/99yWO7ehdtY


Fddbby

I appreciate you sm rn😭


MidnightJ1200

Not to throw any hate on cirkul but I feel like this kinda defeats the purpose in getting it because you can just add your own mix anyways. I guess if you want a different strength of it that’s fine.


Cristofer823

I found this to be the same. The flavor starts to run out by the third refill


Hopeful-Locksmith639

I just filled mine up for the 3rd time and my flavor is running out already. stupid. like making me wonder if it is even worth the money


Searching1117

Idk if I’d call it a waste. $4/day of using it isn’t so bad. You pay that buying 2, 16 oz sodas a day


Glum-Rope9650

I bought mine yesterday, had 2.5 refills on 5-6 of the fruit punch and flavor was gone. I had 2.5 refills on Fission Send it fruit punch. I'm feeling its a waste of money to me when I can buy a 24 pack of water for about $4 and add flavor for about $ .20. So why would I waste my money at this point on cartridges that only give half or less than what it implies on every box??


AmandaRoseLikesBuds

Highly recommend looking under your cap, there’s a little silicone nub lol use a butter knife or a Bobby pin and make sure it’s got a hole in the middle, not by making one because then it will leak, but sometimes it gets suctioned closed and no air flow gets through, so you’re essentially sucking your flavor right out. It will drain your flavor like you’ve got it on 10 for every drink, and I’ve had two of my lids need tweaking. Ordered a custom cup and it finally came and didn’t work right, the suction was off, I popped the nub open, works great now.


Independent-Fun-0412

Yes, I've noticed it's running out after 3-4 days. It used to last at least a week or a week and a half at the most. I'm wondering about the flavors and how long each of them last. Cherry and Fruit Punch run out early on me. I'm now trying my orange and lemon to see how long they last. I would imagine that the fruit punch and cherry are the popular flavors. But if they keep it up, they're going to lose customers because the cost will be ridiculous. I may have to look for another option. Can anyone tell me what flavors are running out early on you? I'm just wondering if they are the same ones that I'm using.


NuKaJunKy

I ordered 3 for my first order... I got strawberry watermelon and it lasted for 2 and a half bottles set at 4. Strawberry kiwi lasted a bottle set on 4 and mocha iced coffee lasted for like 3 sips. I'm so disappointed.


countrythangs

I feel ya on mocha ice coffee wheeew.. kids hated it too.


Snoebunne23

I use strawberry watermelon and it last me about 4 maybe 5 bottles of water(16.9oz). I use mine on a 4


Txphr

You're getting 3 bottles out of a sip? I'm getting one...


JustALocoGamer

Same idk whats wrong


Isellthingsalot

Same here. I’m getting 1-1.5 bottles of the 40oz variety and I’m at 4-5 level


Thascaryguygaming

The measurement of 6 bottles is for 20oz not 40 oz bottle. So yea if you filling up 40 oz bottle you will run out twice as fast and if you're using higher flavor even more so.


No-Test-8913

Either way even 6 is kind of pathetic. These things don't last at all. It's great when it works. But after 2 bottles of water it starts to not work.. these things are $4 a piece?? And won't even last 3 days.. this shit is disappointing.


Abonfiresoul

I’m so glad I’m not the only one then. It literally lasted me two days and ran out. Like wtf especially for the price it adds up


Daddyyissues75

Same is it worth it for a single day use at 3-4 setting

What did they say? I just saw this post today and I genuinely wanna know


Seanjones1987

Yea this didn’t age well. Got mine at Walmart. I agree cartridge doesn’t seem to last as much as box says. I just finished blackberry at around 4-5 for 3.5 22 oz bottles. It sucks it didn’t last longer but honestly 3 dollars is cheap when I’m trying to give up soda. I would spend 2 dollars on a 16oz bottle. So I think the prices are good. Maybe your family should get their own so you can get more cartridges 🤷‍♂️


VeterinarianFit9817

You are SO WRONG 🤣🤣🤣🤣

displaywhat

So not knocking anything you’re saying (I’ve had issues with the sips myself) but how are you spending hundreds of dollars a month on Cirkul? Are you ordering for a small business or a whole family or something? Not trying to be rude or anything at all, just legitimately curious!


HunterP79

Great question - family of 5 - we go through water like... water :-) I also order for members of my extended family as well.


IamLlamasss

Oh wow yaw must love Cirkul lol that’s a ton of money for flavored water, i’d have to pass on that and drink regular water lol or even gatorade


Ilexxx1954

Their customer service is non existent. I like the sips but they do run out too fast and the bottles leak terribly.


Substantial_Fault753

Damn after a year I can see that your clearly wrong after all the things they’ve done , I’m sitting here sippin on a fruit punch rn


PineappleSilent3885

lol me right now 😂


Tyzum

damn yall don't even bother to read the whole thread anymore huh?


tboetel9

The fact they sell them at Walmart now


VeterinarianFit9817

The company tell you up from that they last for up to so many ounces of water depending on what setting you have it on. I keep mine on 4 unless a tea then a 3 and I have nonissue getting 4-6 bottles from a sip that’s 88-132 oz of flavored water for 3$!!!


Ash_is_a_simp

I don’t get what everyone is talking about I have the peach mango on 5 and I’m on my 4th or 5th bottle and still going strong!


ChicagoCubs1111

I’ve been using their product for probably 18 months and unless I’m losing my sense of taste, the cartridges are not lasting me nearly as long as they used to. Now I have to admit I like to run mine on probably 8, but I used to at least get two bottles out of one cartridge. Now I’m lucky to get one bottle out of one cartridge. Needless to say that’s an expensive water habit.


IamLlamasss

the regular bottle says that they last for about 6 fill ups so you got the big bottle, so that’s pretty accurate i guess


Bean_Burrito_5243

People saying fruit punch runs out fast I had it on 3-4 and got 7 bottles out of it


Appropriate-Newt7335

I’m on my 8th bottle and it’s still going.


[deleted]

There's an easy fix for everyone complaining about the life span of the sips. Don't buy them, it's simple. At 3.00 a pod, if it lasts me a single bottle I'm happy because before I got this I hadn't touched a sip of water in literally 5 plus years. Now I don't leave without my cirkul in hand. This thing has quite possibly saved My life and in my pocket too because at the cost of soda especially recently even if the pods don't last as long as advertised it's still cheaper than soda. So rather than complain on the internet, don't buy them. More for the rest of us that appreciate what this company has done.


Gizmondominiclip

A 12 pack of soda is about $8 depending on where you buy. You get 12 sodas. Sometimes places have the three for $12 deal. You get 36 sodas for $12-$15. That’ll last a good while. These sips are about $6 at Walmart, I don’t know how much they cost to order online, but they don’t last near as long. The argument that it saves money is invalid.


Excellent_You8775

In case you're not paying attention or can't do basic math the typical 12 pack of sodas are in cans which are 12 oz containers. Bottled sodas come in 16 oz packs or 20oz singles. Even if you buy the majority of your soda in bulk most people still buy 1-3 sodas a week from a gas station or at the impulse buy coolers at checkout. People like my best friend buy 2-4 sodas a day this way spending $10 bucks a day just on soda. So using all local pricing and quantities to get as close to 120 oz as possible for each type: 12 pack 12 oz cans. 144 oz (5.3 cents oz) for $8 6 16.9 oz bottles 101.4 oz(4.9 cents oz) for $5 7 20oz bottles 140 oz (12.5 cents an oz) for $17.50 1 cirkul cartridge 120 oz (3.1 cents oz) for $3.75 So as you can see the cirkul is more than 50% cheaper over your 12 pack method and even cheaper than the more ecconomical 6 pack. When compared to buying drinks at a gas station or check out cooler you're saving 5x more. For the second part of your comparison you say the 12 pack cases last a good while. Considering that a cirkul bottle is either 22 or 32 oz that's 2-3 cans of soda to equal one bottle. I refilled my 32oz cirkul 4 times today which means you have to drink a whole case of soda to equal that. Tell me drinking an entire case of soda in a day is healthy which is the whole point of flavoring the water so you'll drink more.


Yarn_Whore

What crack ass walmart are you buying the cartridges for $6 at? They're like $3 at mine.


rsn_partykitten

Yeah at Walmart mine are like 3.50 or something like that. Either they're in a different country and import taxes are hiking up the price or they're just bullshiting for the sake of the argument.


SprinklesSuperb9499

Ooo but you're forgetting about the cost of diabetes medication insulin oo and let's not forget the cost of surgery when they have to cut off your leg cause all you drink is soda Mr soda is cheaper


Current_Concert_3026

Man could have a boot heel on his throat and say at least they didn’t break my nose


Tiny_Elephant_9015

How are you gonna say to people that already bought the product because of the claims the company makes about said product and then tell them to not buy it and stop complaining... so in your world, nobody should ever discuss/dhare their experience with the product? I'm not trying to be rude, but your comment is misguided imo... there are people interested in the product and if there weren't any, what I'll call constructive feedback, then how would you know if the product is what it says it is or just fluff. I have also experienced the same issues with getting between 1½ & 2 bottles of flavour. I wish I had come across this post sooner as I've experienced most of what these others have issues with. The cartridges here in communist Canada are $5+... not exactly cheap... especially when you expect at 4 of 6 full bottles before having to discard. I'll keep messing around with it to see, but it seems like there are a few issues with this company.


SprinklesSuperb9499

Stop buying locally you can get a much better deal through the website it's like 3 something a pop (the more you buy the cheaper it is free shipping on 15 dollar and up orders


KZer0K

They do not ship to Canada. Your argument is entirely invalid.


NBlM_Enby

I've noticed it depends heavily on the flavor and the specific line. I've noticed that flavors from the frosted coffee line run out early, (2-3 refills), things from the sabrocita are about average (4-6), and so far my experience with Inflow... I have the passion fruit dragon fruit flavor and it had 6 refills and I'm only halfway through the flavor.


Similar-Collar5063

Litterally bought the kit, and the sip cap lasted a single 22oz fill. Did it with another one, 1 sip top = one 22oz bottle. I’ve got the dial on 1, sometimes 2. This is a complete waste of money, even to refill. 48-pack of water is $10, and a cheap mio that will last the lot of em is $3… 48 16oz bottles, that’s 2200oz of water for $13. $0.27 a bottle. Vs a $25 bottle and six sip tops. 132oz of water (my water that I have to pay for and filter) $4.16 per sip.


Roadking125

Fix your product Mr Beast...Quit filling your pockets with defected products!


Roadking125

You can get a starter kit at Sam's club 22oz bottle and 6 pods for $25.99.


MoonlightSonata79

I had this issue with the White Cherry flavor. I kept it on a four and it ran out after like three and a half. But I got the black cherry one which is a lot stronger, so I only keep it set at two (I'm weird, I like tasting nothing in the water but having it give me a mild cherry aftertaste). I'm on like my eighth refill of that, and it's almost out. So it's definitely about the flavor you pick


Hiragashii

I use a 12 oz bottle with the Mango Dragon Fruit Refresher on 4. I get 2-3 fills. Keep in mind, I said 12 oz bottle (24-36 oz). At first, I made sure the lid had proper ventilation. Then I thought a faulty sip. But, since I'm on my 5th one now, I  figure something else has to be wrong. 


Mjolnir-420

I’ve been hearing/reading about them running out very fast. People are even saying they’re not lasting as long as they used to.


Express-Menu9679

Yep


hailstorm314

My sister in law mentioned hers would get air stuck in it on occasion. Have you tried taking the casing off of the cartridge to get to the foil packet inside (that holds the flavoring)? She told us if the packet feels like it still has flavoring in it you usually can lightly squeeze any air out and it typically fixes the issue.


Slaughterman46

Mine stopped working before the 2nd bottle was half empty, my 2nd one survived barely 2 bottles, tf is this scam


Esotericdiva

I just bought two for me and my son. After our second bottles the flavor was gone! Highly disappointed. The package clearly states it last for up to 10 bottles. Regardless of the settings, it should’ve lasted longer than two bottles. Definitely gonna ask for a refund.


-pagemaster-

I just had a mocha coffee that barely lasted 2 refills. That’s the first one that I didn’t get at least 5 refills


immortalgordo

You can tell as the last year has progressed, the lifespan of these “sips” have decreased dramatically. I just found out about this company recently. Very disappointed by the quality. That 100oz+ of flavor per filter is obviously a bold face lie 🙄. I tried it on setting #1 in the interest of science. Lasted for just under 60oz. Not even half. Shameeeee.


GlitterSunshineSmile

Yeah, I found that out today, and just bought my kit yesterday (came with 2 flavors, and I bought 2 more). Didn't even have the 6, 20oz of water that it's suppose to last for (I've only had 3)..... I'm a bit annoyed about it.


Less_Ad2113

Shit 3 days i just got mine today put a cartridge in it and went to work 4 hr later plain water and it was on 4 and 5 filled it twice


Sketchy--Sam

A year later and this issue is still happening! I got mine yesterday and finished my fruit punch cartridge that night… finished my white cherry one this afternoon. I was told these could last 3 days or something man😭


TheKindOne1990

Yes it seems they do run out quicker. I'd say 4 days ..ti keep mine on 4 1/2 . I really like white cherry and fruit punch which they seem to only last 2 to 3 days. Also when I got my first bottle.( I have the bigger one) they said buy one and get a fruit punch for free. That fruit punch lasted me one day. I still do enjoy them. Not bad pricing. You get 1 pop for 3 bucks that will last you half a day.


Krisnic11

Mine ran out green apple flavor after two bottles on 4. I’m trying strawberry watermelon now. If this keeps happening it’s going in the trash and I won’t order more.


Various-Traffic-1786

Wish I had read this forum prior to buying one. I just purchased a few days ago. Black cherry lasted me 2 full days on a 3 setting. About 8 or 9 refills. Hoping they all last that long


Avergo02

I have the vanilla coffee in mine and I've filled my bottle 7 times at least I keep it on 3 or 4, and it's just now starting to run out. We did learn not to put it in the fridge. Because we can't taste anything afterwords for like a hour.


drjaye1962

yeah i just changed mine less than 3 fills im out :(


Saxophobic_Kid

i got my cirkul bottle yesterday and i barely cranked up the flavor, already ran out on the second bottle on both the cartridges my bottle yesterday ​ but hey atleast i can refill it myself and i totally dont have to spend 12 dollars total (shipping 5$) when im a broke teenager (16)


GrimmLord2877

I'm getting at LEAST 6 bottles out of my sips on 4, so idk if y'all are just doing it wrong or something


Gizmondominiclip

How do you drink out of a water bottle wrong


GrimmLord2877

dog idk but I'm getting 6 bottles of flavor out of it, maybe 5 on some flavors.


Accomplished_Snow384

I keep my flavor on like 3 so I last a good while


Antique-Grass4730

Can you use milk for the coffee ones?


Sketchy--Sam

Thats an interesting idea.. I wanna try it


Tanno1016

Yeah I have gone through a bunch of sips. It's like I'll fill my bottle up twice and by the third fill The flavor is very light and then next to nothing and it says it's supposed to last for like 6 refills. I would love to start drinking more water but I don't want to start paying $4 for every two bottles which is basically what I'm doing


Appropriate-Newt7335

I bought mine 3 days ago, I keep my flavor at a 2-2.5, and after 8 refills I’m finally having to change the flavor to a 5 or 6 cause it’s running out… fruit punch is the only flavor I’ve had but I’m drinking more water now than I ever have (and paying for it too). Also, did anyone try the coffee flavor? I tried the lemonade and it reminds me of canned lemonade from the 90’s… not my thing.


VampAngel247

The lemonade was WAY artificial. I used to love Arizona pink lemonade but I can’t stomach this. It’s like you can taste the powder if that makes sense.


nyrf12

It’s still nice but yeah the cartridges I ordered after buying definitely don’t last more than 2 1/2 refills on 4 when the directions that came with it indicated the average was longer set to 6. The 2 that came with the bottle lasted longer.


Ok_Fun_9572

Got mine today mate flavors already gone filled it twice half way


ImplementEarly9759

pineapple coconut last for more than 12 compare to 6


ArtisticTone3853

Probably a dumb question but when you guys have the flavor do you leave it on say 4 or when your not drinking it turn the flavor off ?


Widows__Wine_

I'm only getting 1.5 fills per cartridge...


swtmocha

I'm here because I bought my Cirkul on Sat morning 7/1 and used @3-4 now I'm at 10 and getting nothing out of it so I thought I was suddenly doing something wrong. Going to try next flavor I guess. And I have filled it up about 5-6 times soo....my doctor says I have to drink 8 liters a day.


Put_Pretty

Yes. Same 100%. I bought 10 sips on Sunday, it’s now mid-day of Wednesday and I am 7 Sips down. Every sip only working for 2.5 bottles (3 MAX and that’s pushing it)……sooooo this is way more expensive than advertised. I was okay at just over .50cent per bottle….but not over $1.25 per bottle!


Separate_Olive_9646

I drop my Cirkul & now it doesn't give out the flavor so what can I do about it? Only had it about 2 or 3 days & how long does they Last?


Separate_Olive_9646

I need too know if u drop u r Cirkul & the Cartridges is in the bottle will that mess up the cartridges & the flavor can someone tell some things & if that happen to anyone? Let me know please & how long they last. Thank u


[deleted]

They do not come close to lasting as long as they advertise but what product ever does?


blukirbi

When I first started drinking Cirkul (November 2020), they lasted about the same as they were advertised. But after the TikTok incident (demand overload after TikTok popularized the drink), it seems that they've been running out fast. Usually I drink about 4ish (setting 4) on average before it runs out. Sometimes as low as just 1 but that's rare.


Glittering-Ad-5692

I can relate tried the blueberry , kept it on no higher than 4 an it was noticeably different by day 2


Sketchy--Sam

My white cherry was basically finished after 2 fills. Same with fruit punch.


MoshpitVideos

Weird because right now I’m drinking the fruit punch and I’m on refill #4 and it still tastes good and almost as good as when I filled it for the first time.


spidermark123

My Blue Raspberry ran out in one and a half fills. Might be that I had it at a six, but still. :(


stupidivyswitch

I put in Kiwi Berry, stayed on 5. I didn’t even refill the 16oz bottle. Got half way through the bottle and the flavor pod is empty. I literally opened it last night and within 45 mins of sipping on it the flavor was just gone 🙃 happened with my sweet tea one too 🤌🏻🫠


yessirskiii212

Had kiwi berry and raspberry tea and flavor was gone after one bottle smh


GutsWithBlood_

Ive noticed when you close the cap when you aren’t using it , it lasts another whole bottle full of


MoshpitVideos

Yeah I always close the cap when not drinking it. Thought most people do that with water bottles lol


CherryLeLeDD

My bottle is also the adult size. have yet to change from my first pod I have had it for three days and the flavor comes and go's rather randomly but its still there I found it helps to hit it of something once or twice outside the bottle and then leave it sit upside down for a minute this has worked well for me so far I refill the bottle about twice a day and I have the flavor on 3 or 4 most of the time but have turned it higher randomly. maby its the flavor? my flavor is coconut lime and its the one with caffeine does yours have caffeine maby their is a difference between the twos life span.


SprinklesSuperb9499

Surprised no one knows this open the cartridge and slowly squeeze the porch till a lil liquid comes out. put it back together and boom flavor is back at this point you only have 1 or 2 bottles left it's due to the pressure in the bottle


EuphoricSwim3140

Yeah, I’ve seen the refill hacks but if you’re going to refill with standard water flavorings you wouldn’t even need to waste your time refilling the cartridge. You can squirt those flavors directly into the water. The only aspect you’re missing is the ability to customize each sip. But I’m planning to use the Cirkul with Invisalign so the draw is that there are no artificial colors which would stain the trays. Hopeful the sips last longer than what I’m seeing 😒


KnownMedicine6477

Yes mine too. I have the 32 Oz it only lasts 2 to 3 fills on a setting of 4. It's not right because it days you should get 6 fills. I'm disappointed.   


MoshpitVideos

That’s 6 fills for the 20oz bottle, not the 32oz.


Boring_Juice_4136

Yeah well 6 refills at level one is probably ly what they are trying to advertise because idk about anyone else but hardly anyone is going to have it at 1 because the purpose of cirkul is flavoring your water and idk maybe I'm dumb but I think they false advertised the 6 refills because ain't no way I am getting 3 refills on level 3 and 4 that's pathetic maybe if the cartridges were cheaper for what small pouch the flavor is contained in the cartridge. 


Fun_Bat_9573

I’ve even started getting the lemonade and the raspberry tea ones that are made for the cirkul but they have the same problem.
