Product Information

When it comes to reusable water bottles, the name of the game is good insulation. That's why this option from Thermoflask was a standout compared to the others, with the ability to keep drinks cold for up to 24 hours and hot for 12 while also having the option to use a spout or chug cap. We love that it comes with two different lids and were impressed with the versatility of this bottle. We noted that there was no chance of spills, and the handle was really convenient for carrying around. During the drop test, there was some denting that occurred, but the damage was so slight that it had no effect on the bottle's ability to stand upright and remain leak-free. The bottle got a bit heavy after being completely filled, but this is to be expected when the bottle can hold up to 40 ounces of water (2.5 pounds). But we don't stop there: We also regularly re-review the categories in which we've awarded the PEOPLE Tested seal of approval — because the best product of today might not be the best of tomorrow. And by the way, companies can never buy our recommendation: Their products must earn it, fair and square.

750ml A5 Leak Proof Flat Water Bottle, Plastic Transparent

A small amount of water leaked when we carried it around inside a bag, but no water leaked when the bottle was shaken or dropped. There are pros and cons to both types of water bottles when it comes to drinkability. Glass keeps water in its purest form, by not imparting any taste or chemicals. Stainless steel can sometimes leave a metallic taste, but it is also safe from chemicals. Another big advantage for stainless steel bottles is their ability to insulate cold or hot drinks for hours which glass cannot do. We think Takeya is ideal for an active person but perfect for really anyone. It's a great water bottle for everyday use because of the smaller cap and ease of drinking from that while being in motion, along with its durability. At its reasonable price compared to others on the market, sleek design, and standout performance, it's easy to see why this bottle swept the competition. We all know Yeti to be a great drinkware brand, and the Rambler Bottle is no exception to this reputation. Not only is it made from durable stainless steel that passed our drop test wonderfully, but it comes in an array of colorful hues to match your style. We found it to be a delight to drink from and noted that the chug cap was very well-designed for water flow, and the double-wall vacuum insulation kept the water freezing cold. But this specific style can do it all, as the insulated interior performs well with both cold and hot drinks. There were no spills to be had during the testing process, and the paint was still intact after being dropped three times, thanks to the durable sealant used on this bottle.Available in several soft hues, this stainless steel water bottle from Brita stands out from the rest due to its internal filter, allowing you to refill and rehydrate wherever you may be. According to the brand, the filter is said to reduce the taste and smell of chlorine in water and only needs to be changed about every two months (or after 40 gallons of water). The spout can be opened by pressing the small button at the bottom of the cap to produce a straw for drinking, which we found super convenient. We also love the design: It has a convenient loop over the top, is smooth to the touch, and it fits easily in a hand and cupholders. We created the PEOPLE Tested seal of approval to help you find the very best products for your life. We use our unique methodology to test products in three labs across the country and with our network of home testers to determine their effectiveness, durability, ease of use, and so much more. Based on the results, we rate and recommend products so you can find the right one for your needs. Reusable water bottles should aim to not only reduce the amount of plastic that goes to waste but also retain the temperature of your drink — that is, if it's insulated. Many water bottles are constructed with double-wall vacuum insulation, which is ideal for keeping cold drinks freezing and hot coffee scalding. However, this often ups the price of a water bottle and isn't necessary for those who want to just take their water on the go. Plastic water bottles are just as common and often come at a cheaper price, providing you with the portability of your water, but only being available for use with cold drinks (do not mix hot beverages with plastic). Yes, if the bottle is clean and closed properly, it is safe to drink. However, you should not drink water from a disposable bottle that has been in a particularly hot environment, such as a car or the sun, for an extended period of time. In this case, chemicals can leach from the plastic into the water. To help narrow your search, we tested 26 water bottles with varying features and designs to see which one you need to achieve maximum hydration. The Takeya Actives Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle nabbed the title of best overall.

A5 memobottle – memobottle™

You can and should clean your water bottle daily. Using warm water, a bit of dishwashing liquid, and a bottle brush, scrub the sides and bottom of the bottle as well as the lip. Then rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean dish towel or paper towel or let air dry with the lid off. Another consideration when choosing a water bottle is the lid. This will determine how you open and close the bottle for refilling and cleaning as well as the type of drinking mechanism it has. Some lids have a larger opening for drinking, while others have smaller area to place your mouth. In addition, some water bottles come with several lids for different drinking methods, including chug, sip, and straw lids. Freezing a water bottle can be a great way to ensure you'll have an ice-cold beverage for hours. Unfortunately, putting a metal water bottle in the freezer is not recommended. Reusable plastic or disposable bottles work better and will not release chemicals through the freezing process. We've all heard the golden rule of hydration: aim to drink 8 cups of water a day. But how often do you actually reach that goal, and how much has to do with not having a reusable water bottle to tote around? Having a stylish bottle that keeps your beverage cold may just help increase that water intake, whether you're at home or on the go. With the plentiful options out there, from Yetis to Britas, you'll never know until you try.We were impressed by Takeya Actives Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle's easy-to-open cap, smart design, and durable material. Though this specific size can hold up to 24 ounces of water, there are sizes ranging from 18 to 64 ounces depending on the type of water drinker you are (and how heavy of a bottle you're okay with carrying around). Made with double-wall vacuum insulation, this bottle was able to keep the water we tested with colder than what it was when it was first filled up (thanks to the ice that was added) even after six hours. This was one of the top performers in our insulation test, keeping the temperature five degrees colder at six hours than when it was filled.
