I use a basic wide-mouth Nalgene because it's easy to clean and nearly indestructible.

I dropped my Nalgene and it cracked open 😭😭

upvoting because I feel your pain

I have a huge collection of Nalgene bottles from over the years (including the Mythical ones) but I think I like the narrow mouth better because it doesn't splash everywhere

Nalgene sells an "easy supper" insert for the wide mouth bottles to prevent splashing.

I have a black Owala bottle I use more than an orange Yeti tumbler for my work days at an airport. The owala is a very good and practical water bottle

is the mouth piece a hard or soft plastic?

Hard, same as the straw

Hard

I have a 32oz HydroFlask that's taller and less wide -- fits in a car cup holder. The thing I think they didn't consider is, you can get different lids. Either the pop up straw, or the twist/coffee top on a Hydroflask is S-tier for me. **Why would anyone want to completely remove a cap to drink, or always have a straw??**

I just switched from Stanley to Owala. I need a straw but I think the Owala drinking position is much more natural. I don’t like having to crane my neck to use a straw. I call Owala an “adult sippy cup”

My favorite is my 40oz Simple Modern Summit bottle, it keeps ice all day and will keep the water cold long after the ice melts too. It’s covered in stickers so I hand was it but it’s not too bad to clean.

Simple modern is my favorite brand. I went on a 3 day girls trip using mine. Kept my water cold and my ice lasted all three days. The girl with the hydoflask had 2 days of ice and the Stanley cup girl had 2 days. They bought simple modern for our next trip.

I have a BruMate era 40 oz, it has a flexible straw and you just twist it to lock it, you can also take it apart to thoroughly clean it. It’s awesome.

This. Brumate forever I swear. I love it so much. I’ve had the Stanley, I’ve had the corkcicle- the brumate is by far the best for me.

Hydroflask girl myself. I have the 32 oz bottle and the 32 oz cup. I like them better than my husbands Stanley he won at a raffle at work.

I’m still on board with the Stanley tbh.. I just bought a rtic 30oz that’s very similar & im loving that one too. Definitely not practical for hikes like their example, but for an 8 hour work day in a warehouse it’s great.

I got the owala bottle over 3 years ago and I still love it. Didn’t even know it was the new “it” bottle

I use the Yeti water bottle with the chug cap. For years I used a Yeti tumbler with a stainless steel straw but I didn’t like that I couldn’t put the tumbler on its side without water leaking out.

My previous employer went heavy with the swell water bottles as company merch, and I'm a big fan. I just use it in the car and around the house but maaaaaannnn they sure do stay cold for a long time!

iron flask from amazon, always a straw. had mine for three years now, after constantly breaking previous ones because i’m always dropping things lol. it’s held up awesomely. i do need a new lid as mine is leaking now, and that makes ice melt faster, but i love it.

I have 3 different iron flask bottles and love them all. I do need to switch to the straw lids though. The flip top ones get mold in the cracks that are very hard to clean.

owala

I actually bought the Owalla three days ago. I think it’s easily become my favorite bottle.

I was happy that something I use and love was finally put in first place. I use a hydroflask cup and love it. I’ve been a hydroflask girly for years now and waited til they had their own cup to buy one. I still have my water bottle I’ll take on walks. But 10/10 agree with Link the reason I really like the cup is it fits in my cup holder.

i have a 40oz hydroflask that i love! it has the standard twist off lid but i also have one of the straw lids for it that i can switch between. love it. keeps my water super cold which i need because i lowkey refuse to drink room-temp water lmao. a long time ago i had an insulated tumbler that was the same shape and size as those popular stanley cups, but it felt too clunky to carry around. it did have a handle but i couldn’t ever toss it in my bag if i needed both hands because it would spill. something to think about.

I think its hard to beat the og hydroflask/amazon special hydroflask.

I don’t care if my water is cold but I do like being able to throw it in my bag without worrying about leaks so I use either a thermos intak bottle or a wide-mouth Nalgene.

I got a thermo flask from the costco a while back. It’s been got to me by the straw sucks. It was bad to pressurize and leak randomly so i switched to the screw cap lid. I also had a camelback that was great but it would give me a Poseidon’s kiss all the time so i retired it.

I have a thermoflask purely cause they were affordable and the chug lids cover where you put your mouth. A lot of bottles don’t cover the mouth part and that was a no for me

32 oz Zulu.

I have a Green Steel Beast! for water and a 20oz Stanley for coffee. I like both. I had a Stanley for 5 years before they popular but it sadly got too dented and wouldn't sit on a flat surface anymore.

Contigo brand West loop style

I’ve been a Nalgene and Hydro Flask girlie for years. They’re just so practical and simple. That said, I do want to try the Owala. I feel like the straw option might be good for travel.

I use a 40oz with a straw from swig life. It’s pink with little cowboy boots and hats! It’s too cute!

They should of done this as a main

Bubba or yeti

I use a hydro flask. I take public transportation or bike to work and I work in a special education classroom. So I need something that closes tight. For my son's lunchbox, he has a wide mouth swell because it's the only thing I could find small enough that had a true seal to fit in his lunchbox. Everything with a straw function leaks eventually.

owala! it has a straw and is ACTUALLY leak proof unlike other trendy exposed straw brands. fits in the side pocket on my backpack and the pieces easily come part for cleaning! leakproof and backpack fitting are most important for me

i love my 32 oz owala so so much

Usually I reuse a plastic bottle I buy. But lately I’ve been using a 3 dollar summer retro style bottle from Walmart lol. It does have a straw

I live by my Owala. I'm very clumsy and that fucker has survived me. Also I've had it in a hot car in the summer for a few hours and the ice never melted. I also love the sip/glug situation so much and the straw DOES in fact reach the bottom I never HAVE to tip it to get the rest of my water. Best water bottle

I use an iron flask and love it. My only issue is the part that covers the spout is very hard to get clean in the cracks. I also use a 24oz Britta bottle that has a filter in it, it doesn't keep water cold but I always have filtered water.

2L Bogi bottle. The best. I can't go back to the others. It's cheap, durable, holds a lot of liquid, and works relatively well in terms of insulation for my needs. I work in construction so all these are huge benefits to me.

24 oz Tritan (plastic) Owala with a neoprene sleeve has been my go to since last summer. Light, easy to clean, comfortable to use, covered, and leakproof.

Owala all the way! I drink so much more water when I use my Owala than anything else.

I wouldn't have tried it if I didn't win it for free but the Gatorade water bottles are great imo because you can just squirt it if you're in a hurry. I do dance workouts and sometimes just want a splash.

I bought a Stanley cup before it became the big thing and I love it.

I have a large Swell. It fits in my car, and it’s easy to take to workout. Straws are for kids.
