Whether you’re going for a run, commuting to work, or simply staying at home, having a reusable water bottle handy is important to keep you well hydrated throughout the day. Based on your preference you can choose between glass or stainless steel, insulated or reusable plastic, with handle or without, even if you prefer the ones with a straw there is a huge variety to choose from.
Other than the style, what you really want to look for in a water bottle is the size, how easily it can be cleaned, leak proof seals, durability and also its weight. Plus keeping a water bottle with you at all times will encourage you to increase your water intake. So invest in one of the following and stay hydrated.
Hydro Flask Water Bottle
“I absolutely love my Hydroflasks, and now have about 7 in different colors. I use mine everyday and ice remains in the bottle overnight and throughout the day. I’d actually probably have to leave it alone for days for all of the ice to melt and the water to get warm. I also like that it is insulated in the way that it doesn’t sweat on the outside. I have the large, 40 oz bottles, which can be a bit large and unwieldy, but I like the large size for a whole day of work. They are super easy to clean, but since I only put water in it, I only wash the mouthpiece regularly. There is no weird taste transferred by the bottle. Overall, really, really love these and would recommend.” — Kellie
Thermoflask Insulated Water Bottle
“Love love love my thermoflask and I brag about it all the time. I work in a warehouse in central California where it gets triple digits through summer the flask will keep my ice for at least 2 days now that’s it’s cooler I can keep us for at least 3 days. It’s definitely worth every penny I’ve spent. It’s also withheld a few times being dropped however it does dent easily so be careful. I got the one with two different spouts and love it.” — B Olstrom
Pogo BPA-Free Plastic Water Bottle
“I’m the weirdo that researched water bottles for like 2 weeks before buying one. I wanted something that fit in my cup holder, that was easy to drink from, east to clean, and I could easily put ice in. This is a winner! The lid snaps so securely and it fits perfectly in my cup holders. I carry it by the ring often. Super happy with this purchase!.” — Tessa
Iron Flask Sports Water Bottle
“I really wanted a 32 oz flask, but read in the specs and read in other people’s reviews that it does not fit in car cup holders. But I decided to check the diameter of the flask in the specs and then went out to my 2013 Ram Pickup and measured my cup holders, and glad I did because it was big enough to hold the flask. So I bought it and it fits just fine. This flasks is beyond amazing as far as how long it keeps my beverages ice cold. It is a little on the heavy side to tote around, but there are so many other positive things about it that I don’t mind a little extra weight. Worth the money! And they look sharp too!” — Customer
Nalgene Wide Mouth Water Bottle
“This is my favorite water bottle. I have two, I leave one with some water in it in the freezer while I drink from the other, and rotate them all day so I always have cold water. I bought a cool koozie for it here on amazon that fits perfectly which only makes it better. Great size, no weird smells or taste, super durable against drops.” — Customer
Hydracy Water Bottle
“I’m obsessed!!! This is exactly what I was looking for! I wanted the time markers with a flip top cap that’s easy to open so I can drink my water while I drive! This is it!! I even love the extras that I didn’t necessarily need. I was worried it wouldn’t fit in my cupholder with the sleeve on but it does! I was also worried the water wouldn’t flow out fast enough with the small opening however that’s no problem! I’m ordering another one in pink!!” — Matt
Giotto Water Bottle
“I REALLY want to drink more water! REALLY I do. So, I bought the clear bottle on the left…the bottle has a cover I keep misplacing! I bought the second one (pink) thinking it had a spout on it. NO, it had a very wide mouth that was difficult to control one’s drinking flow. Finally, I found the third one (purple)…The Giotto Large Water Bottle with Leakproof flip top! It is perfect! Literally no leakage and NO CAPS!!! It is easy to drink from and the straw make is easy to control guzzle large amounts of water. I bought all three of these on Amazon. I would have saved a lot of money if I had purchased Giotto, to begin with. I highly, highly recommend it!” — R.B Kealey
Takeya Actives Water Bottle
“This is the 4th takeya water bottle that I’ve purchased and I love them all. I have the 40oz for myself, and my kids each have the 14oz which are great for elementary school lunches. I recently bought the 18oz for my daughter as she’s starting to outgrow the 14oz and likes to have water with her at all times. These bottles are great. We live at the beach and in 96 degree weather these still have ice at the end of the day. Best water bottles for hiking in warmer climates. These are totally worth the investment!!” — Ria
The Coldest Water Bottle
“I just received the bottle today. Love the quality and look. Very solid and well built product. Excited to use this bottle every day. Great to take to park with kids and not worry if we will run out of water. Only issue with bottle after a couple weeks of use. The bottle usually makes an annoying whistling sound when you suck the water up. I contacted the company and in 1 day, they responded to my problem and fixed it. I really believe in this company because they really stand by their product.” — Lindsay
HYDRO CELL Water Bottle
“Okay, so I wanted a leak-proof, insulated, large, good-quality water bottle and this is definitely it. I’ve been using the straw-top and love that it’s also leak-proof and I don’t have to lift the whole bottle upside down because this sucker is HEAVY. This is not a negative and I didn’t take a star off for it, because it’s only because of my arthritis that the weight of this thing is an issue. Not having to lift and pour the water but instead just flipping open the lid and using the straw is awesome for me. I drink only the iciest-cold water I can get and this guy keeps my water cold all day.” — Customer
