Product Information

From bottles for everyday life to lightweight vessels designed to take you to mountain peaks, our review will help you find the ideal bottle for your needs. The Grayl GeoPress, although superior at filtering, is big and clunky and requires a lot of body weight to press the filter. This bottle is the most affordable glass option in our lineup and features a pop-up flip cap with a rubber bubble seal. These varying situations have provided excellent opportunities to test the portability, durability, ease of use, and overall performance of the water bottles seen in this review.

The soft plastic bottles were the most lightweight, and they also heated up the most in the sun, lending an undesirable plastic taste. You get the same lightweight, wide-mouth container that holds hot and cold liquids without holding onto the flavors (mostly) for the same value, and you can walk around enjoying the great outdoors knowing that you're doing your small part to help reduce, reuse, and recycle. The big hunk of plastic, the Grayl GeoPress, actually produced a fairly clean-tasting mouthful of water. If you're in the market for a plastic bottle, then you'll be interested to know that the water inside each of the plastic bottles reached over 100 F during the test, with the exception of the Camelbak Podium Dirt bike bottle (which reached 96. First and foremost, it's essential that these products are easy to use, and we rated our ergonomics metric on factors like carrying handles, ease of filling and cleaning, and whether they fit in a car cup holder.

If you're planning on mindlessly tossing your bottle into your pack, you may want to consider one of the more leakproof options mentioned above. The Speedfil Speedflask earned a high score thanks to its skinny waste and push button flip cap with a finger carry handle that clips down to stay out of the way when not in use. Likewise, we noticed a crease on the plastic cap of the Camelbak Chute Mag which is a weak point and likely to wear over time. It scored slightly lower on the taste test because we could taste the plastic when filled with hot water.

That said, over the past few years, we have seen a growing selection of affordable bottles made of these materials. The top-scoring metal bottles with plastic straws, like the Hydro Flask Wide Mouth with Straw and the Iron Flask Insulated, only imparted the slightest plastic taste—perhaps not enough for most people to notice, especially if you're drinking cold water from them. Lastly, we considered any feature that added to longevity or durability and, conversely, docked points for any feature that would wear more quickly.

We purchased these bottles to compare them all side-by-side, so you can rest assured that you're getting the most unbiased and thorough review. The thick glass has a rounded lip that's satisfying and almost sensual to sip, making drinking from it a very pleasurable experience.
