These were closely followed by the Hydroflask Wide Mouth with Straw, Yeti Rambler, and the Speedfil Speedflask. Yet, for longer treks in the bush where this bottle could get beat up, we found ourselves grabbing one of the less flashy and more durable bottles. Anyone of these bottles—the Purifyou Premium, Speedfil Speedflask, Lifefactory Active Cap, LARQ PureVis, Waatr Crazy Cap Pro, or the Yeti Rambler would be a good choice if your only focus is clean tasting water.

Jane has spent months of her life drinking from and assessing the performance of the most popular bottles on the market.On the flip side, the Speedfil Speedflask lost some points because the flip cap's mechanism is a rubber band, which is definitely a weak point on an otherwise well-constructed and durable bottle. Because she is constantly traveling, Jane rarely drinks from a traditional drinking glass in a kitchen, making her an expert at hydration on the go. The Lifestraw Go, for example, is an easy-to-use filter bottle with a flip-up bite straw, and it left a blue puddle on the paper.

This included expanding the range to offer new, bespoke, product categories such as pens and drinkware. If you’re already a fan, you can find the colourful Paperchase stationery ranges you know and love, and discover exciting new designs. Our top glass bottle, the Purifyou Premium, has a relatively slender design (although it doesn't fit in most cup holders) and a silicone sleeve that makes it easy to grab.separated them somewhat into categories, the overall review objectively compares bottles of all different types side-by-side.

At the end of the day, this water bottle is a great deal and performs well in the daily grind or at the gym. A noteworthy consideration is that the charcoal filter in this bottle doesn't remove bacteria, viruses, protozoa, or heavy metals.The glass bottles and metal vessels without straws all scored very highly, with a clean, chemical-free taste. It is especially important to clean your bladder often if you use sports drinks, sugared juice, or water. While the push button flip cap is nice for quick hydration, it also produced some leakage in our lid test.

Our Editors' Choice, the Hydro Flask Wide Mouth with Straw, is also a sleek flip straw bottle with a comfortable carry loop that makes it easy to tote around. The Klean Kanteen TKWide was the only container with a straw that did not impart a plastic taste because its straw is also stainless steel. However, when sipping from the straw, the filter did its job of removing any chemicals, and the taste was clean. Jon has tested these bottles over months--in the backcountry, hydrating (and sharing a bottle with) sick kids, in the garden, on road trips, and everything in between.Everyone drinks water, but not everyone takes hydration as seriously as our lead bottle testers, Jon Oleson and Jane Jackson. As with plastic bottles, it's best to keep the glass out of the sun if you want your water to stay cool.
