Ease of use
Once you throw away the yellow net and replace it with a dollar store poofie/scrubby/whatever you call it, it's fine.
The road around the first good sized bump in just about every tri I've done is littered with the yellow nets of people who just bought their aero-bottle.
Quality of Construction
The bottle and mounting bracket seem sturdy enough after two years.
Durability
I took one good fall that put a tiny hole in it along the seam where it skidded along the road. It was quickly repaired by holding a lighter to the area that leaked. Gotta like things that are that easy to repair after a fall.
Value
It's one of the few "how much cycling stuff do I need?" purchases that really is one of those things that you need.
Appearance
It does look cool. No way around it.
Performance
Not only does it make hydration easy, it is incredibly aero. It makes you faster on the bike. Hard to beat that combination.
Strengths
Simple and effective to use. Easy to fill on a race course. Increases cycling aerodynamics.
Weakness
The installation instructions for the mounting bracket are illegible.

Ease of installation
This is primarily related to the mounting bracket for aerobars that are too wide to securely hold just the bottle. The bracket was an extra $11.99.
