Holy crap you're a retard. You wash a water bottle the same reason you don't drink from the milk carton. The bacteria in your mouth is fine when it's in your mouth, if you slobber all over the rim of a bottle it starts growing and making shit all gross. Someone who drinks straight from the milk jug's milk will go sour way sooner. Have you seen those experiments where you touch the petrie dish and they put it under a light and then all sorts of shit grows on it? I'm not some kind of germaphobe, and I'm not allergic to anything, but that's no excuse to be FILTHY. Once you can smell your water bottle it's time to clean it.

I've got two of these 32oz Contigo bottles. They hold a shitload of water, are easy to add ice to and last a decent amount of time.

As others have mentioned this style of bottle has parts that degrade. Usually it's just the o-ring that breaks and it'll leak if it's not standing up.

Also they'll slowly leak from the spout, even closed, at certain random angles.

Oh and if the water goes from cold to warm (e.g. leave it in my truck), it'll spray water when you deploy the spout.


Other than that, I love them. Keep one in the truck (that I use at work) and one in the house. They flow really well.

I wish they made a bigger one. Waking up hungover I can down an entire quart in like 10 seconds.

I've got a Camelbak Groove which also has a carbon filter that focuses specifically on filtering out chlorine and the first time I drank from it was the first time that I realised that water is actually delicious. Almost sweet.
I mean, tap water isn't horrible but it's kind of sour. I didn't realise how sour until I tried the Groove.

The problem with my Groove, though, is that the mouthpiece is difficult to keep clean and goes green after a while (replacements are available). But this might not be a problem with the bottle that you've posted.

Your bottle looks pretty small, though, so you'll probably be refilling it several times a day.

My nigga. I bought pic related canteen at a military surplus store over 10 years ago, still use it on any major outdoor stuff, and sometimes attach it to my maxpedition thermite pack for going around doing shit in town. The canvas cover keeps it cold. Downside is, hard to clean properly and can't really add ice, so if you want it cold you have to add cold water or fridge it.

When you throw ice in it, it does stay cool for a really long time. I prefer the flip lid, but it wouldnt stay as cool that way.

I've gone through 3 in the past 5 years.

>Left
Contigo bottle that I picked up at Costco. It was actually a 3-pack for $15, but I gave the other 2 to my family. It wasn't too bad at first, but the bottom of the spout started tearing after using it for a while. Thanks to that, I now avoid straws and rubber spouts in my bottles.

>Middle
Nalgene OTF from Target. This was actually my favorite bottle since it doesn't have straws and was pretty sleek (which I needed so that it can fit in the bottle pocket in my backpack). Problem is, it's kind of flimsy. The button became worn and the cap became loose, so it started leaking from there. Also, the rubber underneath the cap is hard to clean, so despite regularly scrubbing, it got all moldy and shit.

>Right
Thermos Nissan bottle that I also picked up from Target. It's basically a sturdier version of the Nalgene bottle. The rubber is easier to clean and remove. In fact, the whole bottle is very easy to clean. Great bottle, but my only complaint is that it's kind of ugly.

>> No.6619946

This whole water bottle thing makes sense if you drink a shitload of coffee throughout the day, hike or ride your bike a shitload, or are extremely paranoid about tap water so you fill it with filtered water. I'm afraid most of you fall under the latter category which is pretty sad.

If you can't stick your mouth under a faucet and drink enough water to last you the next two hours, you're lost. There's nothing dumber than having a plastic bottle dangling from your BACKPACK (why do you have a backpack since graduating college?). Okay, maybe leave one of these bottles at work, but you still really look out of place.

We use a backpack instead of a diaper bag for the kid's stuff, we'll also throw beers and sandwiches in there too when we go to the drive-in, beach, concert, etc. Backpacks are easier to carry while keeping your hands free.

the plastic straws are stupid and i dont see the point

1L camelbak chute with my school logo, it doesn't have a straw thing

this water bottle is super durable doesn't leak a drop
not stellar for insulating ice but i don't really care about that
i only ever use it for water so i dont wash it as often as i should (i empty/rinse it out all the time but i need to make a better habit of cleaning the mysterious white flakey stuff that accumulates under the rubbery top more often)

i like it a lot, it's held up a lot of wear and tear for a year and i don't see myself swapping it out until it breaks

>> No.6622268

What do you think is a good size for a water bottle?
Do you fill your's up all the way, but don't finish it?
Do you find yourself filling up more often than you'd like?

not sure what size to get and would like some feed back

That's literally what this friend girl of mine did when I saw her many moons ago. She left the bottle with me and I can't find a use for it. I can't attach it to anything, I don't want to carry it around, and it makes way more sense to get hydrated before going out, because who knows when and where you'll need to piss? I'm a huge hydration freak. Don't get me wrong, I think the mental and physical benefits are huge and horribly underestimated by the public at large.

>>6620309
It's dumb to be unable to time your hydration needs without carrying around a bottle that I could probably clear in 2 minutes of hydration. So at that point, you're just carrying around an empty bottle. Why not just drink that water at a faucet or drinking fountain? You'll have to fill the bottle anyways, and it's not hard to properly hydrate at work/school/in a cafe/restaurant/grocery store. I just think having these bottles makes you look like to everyone else, "Look at me, I know how important drinking H2O is. I'm so casual, yet so full of forethought, about my personal hydration. Here it is on public display."
>>6620335
Okay, yeah, I regret that. Backpacks are major, but where I live, it just creates a huge amount of sweat on my back and I sort of look like a petty thief/stoner with one of them on my back.

>plastic straws are stupid and i dont see the point
I'm only speculating but I think that modern BPA-free plastics like Tritan are much less elastic than older types of plastics so the bottle isn't squeezable. Therefore the only options are to have a pour spout or a straw.
Basically I think that the harder the plastic the less it effects taste. But, again, I'm talking out of my arse and don't really know.

>>6622268
One size doesn't fit all but I think my 700ml water bottle is just the right size for me. Though if I had to carry it around then I would probably get something a bit smaller and lighter. But mine sits on a desk or in the car's cup holder, and I use different (smaller) type of bottle for electrolytes when I'm cycling.

In reference to your reply to
>>6620309

What if its hotter than you expected out? What if your just a human being and you have fluctuating bodily needs? What if you are in a public park and the only available fountain is in any number of disgusting or unsanitary conditions? Can't very well drink the pond water can you? Ok, so you walk 3 -5 blocks to the first convenience store, you can either over pay for a bottle of rip off, or you can ask for a cup for water. As it is required by law, any food or beverage providing place must be able to provide you with water. This convenience store inconveniently (like most) does inventory on beverages by stock of cups. Thus they give you one of the100ml Dixie cups they keep for just this purpose. You get 5.


OR....

Your in a public park.
Get thirsty
Drink from bottle.
>maybe you even got some MiO in there
>yum
Lets be real, I don't carry a water bottle everywhere in real life.

In my backpack? Yes, always.
In my Car? Yes, always
Going out for a walk? Of course, it only makes sense
Going down town to hit a pub or bar?? I'm not autistic
Going to the hardware store? Unless I am walking & it is within walking distance, no, of course not.
Am I working outside, maybe yard work or on my car? I don't really see the benefit of using a cup from the house if I am going to get it dirt or oil in it. Why not a nice closing lid bottle?
Walking the dog? Heck, why not, maybe the dog is going to want something to drink. Am I expected to lift it into a fountain or plan for its hydration and urination cycles?

Its not at all about showing the world how prepared you are to slam back 1000ml of that sweet fuckin survival juice, its about fulfilling a totally human need when your totally human body wants it.

There is no reason or argument to say that carrying one around is a bad thing.
It doesn't hurt anyone, inconvenience anyone, offend anyone, it isn't a threat to anyone's safety. It just makes sense.

>hotter than expected
You know the seasons. You know global warming is a thing. It could even be 10 degrees hotter outside than you realized! Take a minute, after you opened the front door to that blisteringly dry summer climate and gulp down water from the sink. I have one of those giant steins that must hold something like 30 oz of water, and I drink that shit down. I had a large homebrewed iced tea last night and I was up for hours after going to bed because I was dehydrated. I'm super sensitive to dehydration. But simple things like planning ahead by filling up with plenty of water is not hard to do.

Also, you'll still be absorbing that water in the heat. Why not just drink it all before you leave, so it's absorbing faster, you can piss sooner, and then drink more? I just think the bottle encourages sipping, when we should be gulping. And if you're gulping, you're refilling often, at which point, you may as well just fill up your belly right then and there.

Look at it this way. I'm fine with walking around with my belly full of water absorbing while you're toting around your half full bottle of water, worrying about forgetting it and having to pay $15 for another one.

If it's very hot and dry outside, I'm not gonna wear a backpack and get sweat all over my shirt. I can see the thing about the car, but leaving it in a hot car with that bacteria? Plus, it's not being drunk when it's there. May as well hydrate before getting in the car.

I ran cross country and track. They stressed pre-hydration. I just see a lot of "mindful," "health conscious" college girls carrying them around and guys who want to look vaguely "outdoorsy" swinging them around. It's gonna be 90+ degrees tomorrow. What am I gonna do? Pre-hydrate. Trust me, I need a lot more water than what's in those bottles, and by the time I need to refill it, I may as well just drink that amount without having to carry around an empty bottle between fillings.

Used to just reuse water bottles for a few days at uni, but just got this. Literally the best for keeping water cold. I filled it up with ice and water at 10 am and carried it around all day and even left it in my car for 5 hours when it was 100F outside and half of the ice was still left at 10pm. Fuck yeah I'm shilling, because this shit is crazy yo, I also like the metal bottle vs plastic or glass, and the autoseal cap makes it impossible for retards like me to spill
