Humangear Capcap

Humangear CapcapWhat a great idea perfect solution for Camelbak, Nalgene and other standard-sized bottles. I never like the Camelbak bite-to-drink system, and the Nalgene openings were too big to avoid a mess.

Enter the Humangear bottle cap, and problem solved.

PROS: Great, sturdy design. Easy to clean (looking your way, Camelbak), and just an excellent solution.

CONS: None.

This "pack of two" contains only one cap. However, that''s the good news. The bad news is that the threading does not align with either the Nalgene widemouth nor the Hydro Flask bottles we have. Taking extreme care to avoid cross-threading, the cap is extremely difficult to tighten and leaks badly.

Buy Humangear Capcap Now

I just bought two Capcaps in blue and while unpacking them the retainer conecting the smaller cap to the larger cover came off of the smaller cap. It conntinues to come off almost everytime i use them especially when I wash them. It''s odd since I bought the same cap over a year ago and have had no problem with that one. The only difference is that the first cap was green and the other two were blue.

These caps make life so easy!

They make Nalgene bottles even better than they already are!

Can''t say enough good words about them.

Love. Love. Love this product. Completely does away with the side-face dribble of the large mouth bottles. I use it regularly and have had no leaks or spills. Highly recommended.

Doctor Who TARDIS 750ml Water Bottle

Doctor Who TARDIS 750ml Water BottleIts a sweet looking Tardis water bottle, but there is no indication of BPA lining or being BPA-free. Bought this for our kid but now am a bit concerned about its toxicity. Would be great to provide some info on the site regarding potentially hazardous chemicals.

UPDATE: RECEIVED THIS FROM DISTRIBUTOR:

All BBP! water bottles are BPA free. Labels stating such not being on the water bottles was an oversight during the packaging process. The manufacturing of these water bottle products was within compliance of all necessary health guidelines. Future shipments will have updated packaging to reflect BBP!''s compliance with safe manufacturing requirements.

2nd Update: After six months, the Tardis graphic has entirely rubbed off, leaving a blue bottle. The blue finish is still intact and nice, but it seems the Tardis is screen printed on with a poor quality paint that begins chipping really soon. Six months is its maximum lifespan if you use it daily, after that its just blue. I''ve reduced my rating from 4 to 2 stars because of this.

The water bottle looked really nice when I got it, but after a few days of carrying it in my bag the tardis design started to wear off and now its almost completely gone. The rest of the water bottle is working fine but the design part is kinda a bummer.

The bottle itself was great, however the TARDIS''s that decorate the exterior began chpping/peeling off within the first week of purchase. Now I just have a blue water bottle. Very dissapointing.

So, I am a huge Doctor Who fan and am thrilled to have this for my desk at work. The problem is that the TARDIS is disappearing and not in a good way. (i.e. with me in it. ;0)) The white paint is flaking away and eventually I will have a lovely blue water bottle.

I e-mailed the vendor and was told, "we don''t sell them anymore."

Want Doctor Who TARDIS 750ml Water Bottle Discount?

The bottle itself is a fine bottle. But the TARDIS images are painted on very cheaply. After a few days of use and only rinsing, not washing, the TARDIS images started rubbing off. After a couple weeks I have just some random lines on my bottle. I''m very disappointed in this product.

Cool Stuff Neoprene Carrier - 32oz

Nalgene Cool Stuff Neoprene for 32 Oz Bottle, BlueLove it, keeps water cold longer and keeps them from sweating and getting all over your table tops. Have used this backpacking as well and works fine (not as rugged as I would like it to be). Have used one for well over 18 months now and have laundered it several times with no problems. Just bought three more to be able to rotate them.

Nalgene Cool Stuff Neoprene Carrier 32 oz

I am a collegiate rower and coaches require that water bottles in the boat be covered to prevent scratches to the inside of the boats. Originally I used a sock, but wanted something that looked a little classier. This product was a perfect fit. Unfortunately, within 3 weeks of owning it and using it the seams were already coming undone. I don''t know if this is because of the constant sliding on in the boats because the seams that are separating are on the bottom where the end is sewn to the cylinder. Additionally the black nylon strap with the D ring is also separating due to poor sewing quality.

Also, I really have not paid attention to how well it keeps my water cool, that is not a concern of mine.

Buy Cool Stuff Neoprene Carrier - 32oz Now

This sleeve was advertised to fit a 32oz Nalgene bottle, it does not. It reaches only about 3/4 of the way up the bottle when you slide it on. There is a drawstring that presumably you should be able to cinch tight if the sleeve were long enough to reach the neck of the bottle, but it''s not. The sleeve barely fits the length of the bottle, so the drawstring just hangs there uselessly. No amount of tugging could pull the sleeve up any more.

IT LEAKED. Advertised to be safe to put in backpack, tote bag, etc, without fear of getting contents of your bag wet. Lie. Condensation leaks through neoprene within 20 minutes and will wet anything you put it on or near including pants! (do not put in lap, do not put near library books...)

Product needs to be bigger to accommodate 32oz Nalgene bottle and properly lined for being leak proof as advertised. Returned for refund.

I just received these covers/carriers, and was I disappointed. Putting the 32 oz. Nalgene bottle in this carrier was like trying to put a size 6 shoe on a 8 foot. It doesn''t have a wide enough loop to use on a wide belt that one would normally wear, when carring a water bottle while hiking, etc.. Forget the drawstring, unless, like me you decide to put your 16 oz. nalgene in this carrier. I have a nylon carrier that I''ve had for 10 years, has a wide loop for wide belts, a drawstring to close it down aroung the 32 oz. bottle amd I use it while hiking, for work, ( I work outdoors ), and I''m still using it. This one, forget about it.

Nalgene Cool Stuff Neoprene makes for a good insulator for your water bottle. However, one of the reasons I had purchased it was in hopes that it would be a good carrying device as well. Unfortunately, I have found the loops in it a little too tight for one''s fingers to go through comfortably, and there is no way to adjust them. If it weren''t for this I would give it five stars. The loops are so tight that I''m afraid I will end up tearing the material. I have just continued to carry my water bottle by the loop cap like before.

Sigg 0.6-Liter Lifestyle Water Bottle Save 22% off

Sigg Design Water BottleI carry this bottle around in my bag, and usually have it filled with water. I have had it for about a year now, and here is what I have noticed:

The good:

-It''s very stylish. I get complimented on it all the time.

-It is very durable, build wise. I have dropped it a lot and banged it forcefully into the sink while trying to shake the water out quite a few times, and there is only one tiny ding in it, that I would not notice if I didn''t know it was there. The paint has held up nicely as well.

-The top is nice if you want to hang it off your bag. However, I don''t recommend this, because the bottle (when full) is usually pretty heavy and just ends up swaying a lot when walking.

The bad:

-Right away, I noticed that the top spills when you open the bottle. When closed, the top is solid. However, when I have it in my bag, tossing around, some water gets stuck between the cap and the lip of the bottle, and this water squirts out as soon as I open the bottle. This is very annoying, and always gets my hand wet.

-When you open and close the bottle a lot (something that is expected from everyday use), the lining on the thread of the bottle peels off. This happened to mine a month or two into using it. It still closes tightly, but the bottle needs to be lined.

-The lining itself seems to go bad after a while. At first, I had no problem with it. However, a month or two in, the water inside the bottle started to taste funny, kind of rotten or stale. I''m pretty sure that that is not supposed to happen.

Final thoughts: this is a really cool bottle, and holds up to stress nicely, but I can''t trust the water that I drink out of it anymore.

I found out today that this type of water bottle, that I bought specifically because it was BPA free, was not in fact BPA free and the company was aware and did little to notify the public of its false claims that lead to its recall. I was very happy with my SIGG water bottle, but I am not willing to pay $7.50 to have it replaced with a water bottle from same company that is claiming that the newer liner is now REALLY the safe version. I thought that''s what I paid $20 for 2 years ago. I do not trust SIGG products, I would not recommend using any of their products.

Buy Sigg 0.6-Liter Lifestyle Water Bottle Now

Ordered several of these for our family as we drink so much water throughout the day. We have been trying to cut back on using throwaway bottles and the Siggs make it easier to try and do that. Our kids especially appreciate the fun designs; the lids are easy for them to use as well.

One caveat is that it is a little harder to clean than some other bottles, but overall we prefer the Sigg more than any other bottle out there.

One of the raw foodists recommended this bottle and I bought it. I only used the bottle for about 1 1/2 months and the liner near the mouth started to peel away. I tossed the bottle away and didn''t even bother to contact the company. Don''t waste your money.

I have 4 of these. I like them they''re okay for what I need them for they''re a pain in the butt to clean if you don''t use a dishwasher... and I only like the spin cap''s because I REALLY hate the push in type. I dont even really like the spin cap because I do a lot of driving (Green I know!! lol) and its not always easy to put them back on and they kinda get pressure built up so it squarts when you open it. And you cant put ice in them. Ohhh well... they work for now.

Platypus Platy Holster

Platypus PlusBottle Holster, Black, 1 LiterI was looking for a water container to take hiking with me that was BPA free, and would not taste like plastic. This fit the bill perfectly, and the holster keeps the water cold for a long time. It is lighter than any hard sided bottle, without the plastic taste that the Camelback''s have.

Boy was I surprised when my holster arrived and there was a 1 Liter bottle included, the description says Platypus PlusBottle Holster Black, 1 Liter, I say the bottle in the holster but did not count on it being included at this price. I hike 40 to 45 miles a week and this is the lightest and most space saving solution to hydration for short day hikes. The taste is of water and nothing else, no bottle taste at all. I have washed this Holster and it comes out like new. Fantastic product. Thanks

this holster is great! it compresses to a thin layer when not used for easy storage. it looks very durable and is really reinforced to protect sharp edges from poking the soft bottle. on top of all that, it looks good, and should last for quite a while. the fit is perfect. using a platypus bottle without this holster feels like something is missing for me now.

This product was exactly what I wanted. It''s very flexible and folds flat for packing. It holds a good quantity of water. I lost an earlier model after over 20 years, and this replacement is at least as good, and not as easy to lose. The order was filled accurately and promptly. I would use this supplier again.

Ortho 0165210 Malathion Plus Insect Spray Concentrate (32 oz.) Save 14% off

Ortho 0165210 Malathion Plus Insect Spray Concentrate - 32 oz.yes, yes, the foul, disgusting bureaucrats of the EPA say that i will get horrible, painful skin-sloughing CANCER after using this "off label indoors." But I''ve slept like a baby since the little blood-sucking bedbugs met their untimely demise. Totally worth whatever cancer will kill me in 50 years of sweet, sweet slumber. Just dilute the stuff & go once around the base-boards. BOOM. Game over, blood-suckers.

A little goes a long way. Very cost effective.

I try to avoid the Malathion, favoring the pyrethrins, but Malathion kills the mosquitos and horseflies.

The biting bug population stayed down for several weeks.

I do spray about 30 minutes after sunset. My goal is to avoid harm to bees and dragonflies.

My population of dragonflies and bees seemed unchanged with this technique.

Hope they were not affected.

But the mosquitoes and biting flies from the surrounding flood irrigated fields can''t be controlled with other methods.

Use this after other methods have failed.

Some reviewers have suggested using malathion inside your home for bedbugs. Don''t do it. Malathion is wickedly toxic stuff and if you don''t know exactly what you''re doing, you can seriously hurt yourself by spraying it around inside your house. Propoxur is far less toxic than malathion is and it''s even more effective on bedbugs (Malathion has little residual effect and bedbugs have already begun to acquire some resistance to it; this is not true of propoxur.) If you have a stubborn bedbug infestation, you''d be much better off using propoxur. Check out my review of INVADER HPX AEROSOL to learn more.

DVN Cruiser Candy Cup Holder Pink Dalmation

DVN Cruiser Candy Cup Holder Pink DalmationI recently purchased the most beautiful black and pink beach cruiser and was very excited to begin customizing it. I found DVN products on Amazon and fell in L-O-V-E!!! This cup holder is so adorable extremely fuctional. I use it every time I take a ride. It holds my water bottle, soda can or my iced venti skinny vanilla latte. :-) I''ve got the matching basket liner on my wish list for when I get my basket mounted. I''m also planning on purchasing another cup holder in a different style so I can change up the look whenever I like. This was very quick and easy to install with absolutely no damage to the bike. This company has outdone itself!

SubZero 750 ML (25 oz) Stainless Steel Water Bottle Save 31% off

SubZero 750 ML Stainless Steel Water Bottle - Color: BlackI have several of these. They are a new version of the SubZero bottle that showed up a year or so ago.

The worst problem with the older version was that the cap was ill-designed so that the threads were hard to align and wore out quickly.

Next, the paint on the older versions came off easily including in the dishwasher.

Finally, they weren''t all one piece and some reported having trouble with the seam that showed on the outside.

The new bottles have addressed all those issues. The cap is designed much like the Klean Kanteen and works great.

Subzero tells me the paint is now dishwasher safe though they point out that any paint will fade with dishwasher use. I have yet to test mine in the dishwasher.

Finally, the bottles have only one seam (that can be seen if you look inside the bottle) which is like other SS bottles, I believe.

They work great. Subzero confirms that they are not lined with plastic as is the case with some aluminum bottles and they''re reasonably priced. The price, which is so much less than what the others are charging is what gets this bottle the 5th star. SS water bottles are so much better than using plastic for the environment, your health and the taste of the water. It''s about time someone started pricing them realistically.

Edit:

I just saw SubZero bottles in Walgreens for $5 and they came with two caps...one regular one and another with a pull open top like a bike bottle. Good deal.

The mouth is wide so ice cubes go in easily and it''s more comfortable to drink from in bumpy situations (like on the bus during your commute).The cap loop is large and comfortable so that a finger or two can hold it easily and comfortably. The bottle is made of thicker steel than more expensive bottles. I paid $18.95 for the Sigg Lifestyle Loop bottle and it dented the first time I dropped it. Not so with this Subzero bottle. I''ve dropped it twice and no dent! I accidentally left it in the freezer and no warping (maybe I just lucked out there :-). I bought this bottle on sale for $3.95. It''s tons better than the more expensive Sigg bottle in both construction and design: wide mouth, large loop, sturdy ring for hooking onto backpack, thick steel wall.

I recently bought 3 of these "stainless steel" water bottles from Walgreens, checked the bottles inside out before buying for any defects, the bottles "look" good, poured water in them, the cap is totally waterprooof BUT after deliberately leaving water in them for about 24 hours to test if it''s rust-proof, I looked inside the bottle & there were multiple small rusty spots in 2 of the 3 bottles, so I returned them all. I think this brand''s bottles are made w/ a poor quality of stainless steel. I have the THERMOS brand stainless steel water bottles which never rusts, yes they are more expensive but well worth it.

H2O4K9, Stainless Steel K9 Water Bottle (25-Ounce)

H2O4K9, Stainless Steel K9 Water Bottle, 25-Ounce, Denim BlueLove this bottle. I had a plastic one that my puppy chewed up, lol. Works great. Might be hard for a big snout to get into it as there is a lip that comes over the trough but you could turn it sideways and it should work.

I was sorely disappointed in this product. It came scuffed and scratched in the mail. The plastic cover looks like it had been used. No padding what so ever.

It''s lightweight, doesn''t feel sturdy. The plastic cap could be a little heavier to add to the quality, as of now it is flimsy. It doesn''t sit flush with the bottle and every time I carry it it seems defective because it can be squeezed to touch the bottle. The carabiner that is in the picture is not the one I received, I received a cheapo plastic wirey carabiner.

There is no insulation to keep the water cold. I loaded it with ice to the brim (no water), within 20 minutes that ice melted. I can''t imagine how fast it would get warm outdoors in the sun.

I tried to just ask for my money back (including shipping for this heinous product). Seller "As Seen on TV Products" would not refund my shipping costs to return their product so I am keeping it until I find a better portable water bottle for my dog. Why should I lose any money to get rid of this product?

Maybe I''m just pessimistic, but for $24 shipped, I expected a quality product.

Edit: Four month update, it''s now November 5. My dog never got used to using this product. He would only drink from it if he was really, really thirsty. So there I was for these past few months carrying this water bottle everywhere we went, while he would go drink other dog owners'' water but run away from me. Today I got the Water Rover portable water bottle and he instantly comes to me to drink water. I think it is the steel or something that leaves a funny taste in the water of this H20K9 water bottle. When I smell inside it, it smells full of chlorine.

I love this water bottle for our dog! We used to drag along a bowl and water jug, or we''d use one of our own water bottles and pour water in our hands. This is so much easier, and what he doesn''t finish gets poured back into the bottle so we can continue on our journey without a mess or wasted water.

I have a service dog, so I frequently need to take water with us on our outings. Prior to using this, I always kept an extra bowl in the car and poured water from a water bottle into it for my dog to drink. It wasn''t a horrible setup, but it required a couple extra steps I didn''t want to do. We''ve used the H204K9 system for quite awhile now, and we love it! My dog adores drinking water out of the lid, and I adore the fact that I can easily pour water into the lid, add more as needed, and pour any excess water right back into the bottle. The carabiner on top means the bottle is easily attachable to anything, though I choose to use a water bottle sling to carry it most of the time. Also, the design of the bottle keeps water cool even on hot days in the car. Definitely worth $15!

Want H2O4K9, Stainless Steel K9 Water Bottle (25-Ounce) Discount?

I just had to purchase this after I saw it. My dog is fairly picky about what he drinks out of. When we''re hiking or playing at the lake, he''ll often refuse to drink out of the soft, foldable bowls. He loves his H2OK9. It''s hard plastic and easy to drink out of. It is quite heavy when full, but worth it for long, hot walks, but not for anyone worrying about weight. The carabiner makes it easy to carry or hook to a backpack. This was the swaying factor between the 25 oz and the smaller size. All in all, I love my doggy''s water bottle.

Quick Release Bike Water Bottle Cage (Black)

Quick Release Bike Water Bottle CageThis wasnt too bad. Biggest issue I have had is riding on rougher roads or if I hit nice pot holes, which I try to avoid, this will shift while riding and I have to constantly adjust. It doesnt usually slide down but will shift left or right. I have it on there pretty tight. But overall it is fine and better than not having anything there to begin with. I have about 200miles riding with it so far. Upgraded my bike and I no longer need this.

I haven''t tried anything hot in it, so don''t know how well it would keep a drink hot.

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.
