The only thing you should know is that several of the bottles are 4 oz. So they are not good for taking in a carry-on bag. However they are the best choice for packing them in your suitcase, using the smaller bottles in your carry-on, or using them as pill bottles. This includes several different types of tops, including screw-on ones and flip-top/squeeze ones, and you can switch many of the tops.
EDIT: Here is the listing of sizes from the Nalgene website.
Bottle w/Red cap is 1 ounce
Square bottle w/Blue cap is 2 ounces (same size as the bottle w/white cap)
Rectangular bottle w/Green cap is 4 ounces
The next two bottles are 4 ounces, perfect for shampoo and conditioner
The white dispensing caps will fit on all the bottles in the kit (except for the 1/2 ounce)
The square bottle is 2 ounces, its the same as the bottle w/blue cap
The bigger jar is 2 ounces
The last jar is 1 ounce
I carried these to Russia and back, on a backpacking trip, and on another 2 week trip. STILL no leakages and this is still the perfect combo with my Eagle Creek kit!I bought the small size kit which is appropriate for TSA''s 3-1-1 rule of carry-on liquids/gels/creams if you''re flying on an airline. Those who complain about bigger-than-3oz size bottles bought the Medium size kit, which has some smaller bottles good for carry-ons, and some bigger bottles that can only be put in your checked baggage. The size of each bottle is embossed on the bottom, kinda hard to read, but it is there.
Anyhoo, on to the small size kit itself. The photo that Amazon currently shows for this product is of the small kit, and the bottles are, from left to right in the photo (thanks to Nalgene''s site for the description!):
The bottle with blue cap is a ½ ounce
Square bottle w/red cap is 2 ounces
Round bottle w/green cap is 2 ounces
Two straight sided jars, 2 ounces each
Clear square bottle is 1 ounce
I recently used all the bottles and put them in baggage that were both checked and carried on, and none of them leaked. I had watery liquids in the bottles by the way, the bottles aren''t really squeezable for thick gels/creams, so they''re best for thinner consistencies that you can pour. The jars had creams in them, like thick conditioner. These little sizes are great for a long weekend. The caps are just that, screw top caps. They don''t have flip-top or snap-top openings, which for me usually end up leaking, so the plain screw caps these Nalgene bottles came with are great.
I''d buy it again in a heartbeat. They''re also top-rack dishwasher safe, though I just gave them a quick rinse with soapy water.

I purchased these travel bottles a few weeks ago and used them for the first time this weekend. Overall, I am pleased with the quality and performance of the bottles. However, some of the bottles leak. Two types of lids come with the medium set. The lids with the hinged spout leak badly. Thankfully, I used this type of lid on only one of the bottles in my suitcase, because the entire contents leaked out onto my clothes. I was only flying from Burlington to Memphis, a trip that should not have been abnormally hard on my luggage. While I am satisfied with the performance of the set overall, I had hoped that I had finally found a set of travel bottles which would seal tightly enough so that liquids would not end up all over the inside of my suitcase. In addition, the lids with spouts only fit the 4 oz. bottles, so carrying them in a carry-on (so that you could make sure that remained upright) is not an option.Read Best Reviews of eBags 3-1-1 Nalgene Travel Bottle Kit Here
As previous reviewers have noted there is a leaking issue with thin watery products. I found this to be true of the flip tops and the screw on tops. Nice variety of sizes. Very sturdy construction, although I still recommend taping the 2 bottles that have the flip-up spout, which I use for shampoo and conditioner. These came loose during an international flight but they were fine once I taped them. The other bottles with screw-on caps work really well.Crocodile Creek 13.5 oz 13.5 oz Stainless Steel Reusable Drinking Bottle (Ballerina) Save 5% off

Buy Crocodile Creek 13.5 oz 13.5 oz Stainless Steel Reusable Drinking Bottle (Ballerina) Now
We have the Butterfly bottle from 3 yrs ago and after being taken to preschool every day, rinsed out every night and getting a good clean in the dishwasher every weekend, it''s held up Great. Recently ordered the ''horses'' for Kindegarden, only b/c the old one has some paint coming off the bottom and there''s a big dent in the side. I''m ordering now one extra one for us to take on our busy days when we go from 1 activity to the next. Love these Bottles!This is a cute little bottle for my daughter''s lunchbag and I''m glad she has enjoyed it, but now that we have had it for over a year I can honestly say it is a pain in the rear to get clean, and you really can never get the nozzle properly clean if you have no dishwasher (maybe if you have one it''s fine). The part you drink through is white and black you can see gunk build up in the white area and sort of where the black is, but it''s not easy to see the stuff there. I have a baby bottle brush so I can get into the bottle to scrub it & I use the nipple brush to try to clean the mouthpiece, but you can never get into the hole where the beverage comes out. My daughter took the bottle on a 4-day road trip (I washed it w/o the brush while away) and when we got home I scrubbed it and literally saw chunks of black mildew (or something nasty) coming off when scrubbed the inner part of the black nozzle. I will try boiling it but I don''t know if that will mess it up (or help)I am glad it came as a 2-pack so I have a second one to replace it with but I don''t'' trust it to stay clean!Want Crocodile Creek 13.5 oz 13.5 oz Stainless Steel Reusable Drinking Bottle (Ballerina) Discount?

3-5-2013 Update... As long as the bottle remains upright, it works ok. I took it with me in my tote, it didn''t stay upright and it leaked. Good thing it was in my tote and not my camera case. I wouldn''t buy this bottle again. If I had known it would leak, I wouldn''t have given it four stars and I would have sent it back.
