18 oz Glass Water Bottle with Silicone Sleeve
I got the green bottle and the green is a little less bright than it appeared onlineit sorta looks like Nikelodeon slime. That''s not a big deal though. I originally bought the 6 pack of these bottles which does not include the silicone sleeve and love that they are naked when it comes to keeping them clean but when I am actually drinking out of it they are slippery and produce lots of condensation as expected with any glass so ideally to me there would be a cover I could slip on and off easily when I take one out of the fridge. This does not work well for that because it is very hard to get off. It is not exactly designed/marketed for easy on easy off so I won''t fault them for that however I think buyers should be aware that they will at least on occasion want to take it off for cleaning and that will be a bit of a hassle. It feels well made though. I expect the sleeve will protect against minor bumps but fully expect this to break if I drop it and the mfr makes no promises to the contrary. One of these naked bottles fell off a night stand onto a wood floor and didn''t break which surprised me. I was worried when I bought the naked ones that I would break them in no time but it has not been a problem! Note that if you get this and break the bottle amazon sellers the naked bottles for a very reasonable price and the sleeve and caps will fit (I have actually tried). I do hate the cad on these bottles thoughthey feel flimsy and are difficult to grip to open some times.

It''s a good quality water bottle and the silicone sleeve is very effective in protecting it. I''ve dropped it quite a few times and nothing has happened. The water doesn''t taste any different, and it''s a good size. 5 stars.Read Best Reviews of 18 oz Glass Water Bottle with Silicone Sleeve Here

This item is perfect for the UGA grad or Walmart fan and helps support their alcoholism. All items come wrapped in bubble wrap, which provided additional protection and hours of fun.
Liquid Logic 26-Ounce Excursion Stainless Steel BPA Free Water Bottle
I love this bottle. I was looking for a plastic-free water bottle to take to work. It was fairly priced....one of the best I could find. I carries a lot of water without being too big. Good choice!
Nathan Thermal Sprint Handheld Bottle
I love the ease of carrying this while running! No more struggling to open with sweaty hands as I experienced with previous handheld bottles! No leaking around the cap either! Really does keep liquids hot or cold! GREAT!
This one is just perfect or all that. I take it with me in long runs, just making sure that I refill it around every 7 or 8 miles.

Copco Sip and Gulp Smoothie
This is the second time I''ve ordered this smoothie cup; first one was for me, second was for my fiance. The first time I bought one, which was months ago, it did come with a straw, so when the second cup arrived without one I knew it was a packaging error. I contacted Amazon and they explained that they were having trouble with this item in the warehouse and that they would ship me a new one, with a straw, as soon as the problem was rectified. I sent the strawless one back (didn''t have to pay return shipping) and received a replacment cup, all parts included, within a couple of weeks.I make a smoothie almost every morning when I wake up, pour it in my cup, stick it in the freezer while I''m getting ready and then grab it on my way out the door. I love it and would highly recommend it!

Just received my replacement, as the first one arrived without a straw. This one also lacks a straw. I''m going to send it back, contact Amazon''s customer support and hopefully finally be sent one with a straw... I''ll change the review if they come through.Read Best Reviews of Copco Sip and Gulp Smoothie Here
I thought this cup came with a straw as it is described with a turning straw, little did I know that meant LID! This is very misleading as is the picture. The cup seems of decent quality, but it was a little disappointing. I ordered this for smoothies and ordered smoothie straws, thank goodness, as no straw seems odd to say the least. There should be a disclaimer that straw is just for show. Especially in the same blue color, like it was a set. False advertising if I must say....Want Copco Sip and Gulp Smoothie Discount?
After I removed the marketing sticker I was left with a thin, torn, layer of plastic. After spending 2 hour using hot water, Goo Gone, and oil. Called Copco and they know about this and they said they would send me my money back.
Liberty Mountain Bottled Water Harness (1-Quart)
The bottle I have fits fine in this carrier and it can be easily adjusted for different sized bottles. I have a 17 oz. bottle though, and I think a bottle any larger would not fit right because the two straps that hold it in are positioned so low that the bottle will topple out of the top if it''s larger. Also, unless you are very small framed, the strap is way too short. I have it on it''s longest setting and if I sling the strap around my opposite shoulder like in the picture, the bottle comes to higher than waste level and the strap is very tight and uncomfortable around my shoulder and keeps cutting into my neck. As I walk, my arm hits the bottle, so I have to position the bottle way around on my back which looks stupid and makes it less convenient to drink from. If I sling it over one shoulder like a purse, it just keeps falling off. Honestly, would it have killed them to make a longer strap? Anyone who doesn''t have a tiny frame is going to be annoyed by the lack of length on the strap.

This looks nothing like the picure. It is all black rather than purple and black. The strap at the bottom is narrow so the bottle just wants to slip right out of it. I bought this for my son to take on a field trip but I fear it will cause more frustration than anything for him. Save your money.Read Best Reviews of Liberty Mountain Bottled Water Harness (1-Quart) Here
I just read the 4 reviews after receiving the 2 harnesses I ordered for my kids. I''m not too sure I agree with any of them except that the harnesses I got were all black, but I don''t really care about the color, just the functioning.My kids are 5 and their bottles are 400 ml (14 oz) Nalgene. The straps tighten up enough around the bottles so that they don''t fall out, either through the bottom or over the top, and the shoulder straps are able to be shortened enough for young kids. I have also test-fitted one for my 1000 ml (32 oz) water bottle which is NOT the tall, narrow kind and it wouldn''t tip over and fall out.
At 5''6" of average frame (female), the shoulder strap is definitely long enough for me to carry the bottle to the front, but I don''t believe my 6'', larger-framed husband would be comfortable.
The harness must be adjusted to fit the bottle tightly, which takes about 3 minutes at the most. The bottle is not meant to be removed for drinking purposes if that''s what someone may be trying. Just tip it up and drink or pour into a cup.

This is my second purchase of a drink carrier, but this is not made the same as my original. The concept is great. It''s nice to carry a large drink, hands free. This one only has two straps, making it unstable. My original has three. My drink has flipped in this one several times. I had to add some pieces to it to give it stability. I suppose it would work OK with a small bottle, but when I''m out and about, at a park or such, I like to carry a large container.
Chums ClipBottleHolder (Assorted Colors)
Product description reads "Sold as one unit. (1 unit = 30 each.)" which might lead you to believe you''re getting 30 of these really, really cheap. You would be wrong. There is only one. I didn''t really expect to get 30 for the price, but it aggravates me that some merchants are so careless with the descriptions. Thus, 3 stars.That said, this is pretty heavy-duty. The carabiner is large, larger than I expected, and quite substantial. I have trouble stretching the O-ring enough to get it on, so I can''t imagine it will ever come off too easily. The only beef I have with the construction is that the bottom of the carabiner is notched, so that the short strap sits flat, instead of curving with the shape of the carabiner. Seemed like a good idea, until I realized the resulting small, sharp spurs can get caught on things. Like fingers, if you''re not careful when installing the thing.
The picture shows a slightly different carabiner, mine is a bit longer from the hinge to the bottom (where the strap goes), so maybe they won''t all have the same problem.
We honestly don''t use these clips very much anymore because we are trying to reduce the amount of waste we generate and the Chums bottle holder only fits water/ soda bottles. It would be a big plus if it would fit standard aluminum water bottles.
Sunlite 28 oz Bicycle Water Bottle with Cage (Blue)
These water bottles definitely have the right price, but that''s about where the good things end.The mounting accessory provided... I have no idea what I was supposed to do with it and it came with no instructions. I couldn''t get it to fit on any of the three bikes I bought one for, and eventually just zip-tied the holder onto the bikes instead. Which worked fine, until I realized that these bottles must be leaking something into the water. Leave the water in the bike for a few hours, and it''s tastes TERRIBLE, almost tastes like sewer water. It''s awful.
So, while the price is certainly right, not much else about these bottles is.

I ordered this item when I seen that every store I walked into looking for this was asking nearly ten dollars fot practly the same thing. Come on it''s only for carrying water. It came with all the hardware that a person could need to mount it on nearly any bicycle. To sum it up I suggest that if you need a water bottle and cage that you buy this one.Read Best Reviews of Sunlite 28 oz Bicycle Water Bottle with Cage (Blue) Here

Platy Soft Bottle with Closure Cap
This holds 80 ounces, a little more than 2 liters (hence, the 2+L) and fits fairly well in my pack''s reservoir pouch. The fit is a little tight, but since it''s just a pouch it crumples up easily. I would strongly recommend buying the Platypus Drinking Tube. One thing that surprised me is that the plastic is different than I thought it would be. I thought it would feel like a really strong zip lock bag, but the plastic is harder and much stiffer. That''s for the best though since that makes it more difficult to puncture. I could probably drop this on some rocks from 5 or 10 feet and it wouldn''t bust.
* They''re flexible they scrunch down to practically nothing when empty & are easier to maneuver around awkward water faucets and spouts than hard bottles.
* They''re sturdy I constantly use mine and just threw it in my backpack when I''m out and about. It''s still going strong with no leaks or tears.
* Water doesn''t acquire tastes or odors from the plastic. Even water I''ve left in the bottles for a few days remained palatable.
* The one litre model can be stood up on a flat surface. Technically, the 2 litre bottle can as well, but it tends to tip over when full.
I''d also recommend buying the sports-bottle type spouts which are sold separately for traveling and general convenience.

The best thing about this product is the price you pay for a large, transportable water container. Where products like camelbak can be horrifyingly overpriced, you can purchase this guy and put it in a back pack.It''s also quite durable, I''ve filled it with water and dropped it onto the floor from several feet above and it just won''t bust, it''s clearly made to last.
However, the most troubling thing about this product is really the mouth piece. It''s tiny, and therefore hard to fill and clean. I''m not sure who imagined that having a small opening for a water container would be practical but it clearly isn''t. To tell you the truth I wouldn''t even consider buying a second one unless that was changed. Oh, and maybe if it had a handle, that be great too.
In the meantime this product does serve it''s purpose, I have taken this thing around everywhere and it does well, it''s durability does surprise me.

This is product is a novel idea and great for vacations or travel. I took this deflatable bottle on a trip to Niagara Falls, so that meant flying to Buffalo, NY and driving across the border. First of all, its great to have this empty bottle folded up and take literally no room. Plus you don''t have any liquid restrictions going through TSA at the airport. Then when you arrive at your destination, fill it up at a drinking fountain or save money buying a gallon or two of water and fill this 1 liter bottle for each day of your travel. At full capacity it takes what normal 1 liter bottles occupy in space, but the best part is that it decreases in size as you drink. For me, what I did on my trip was filled it up and placed it in my checked luggage (no leaks whatsoever) before going to the Falls. Its strong enough to endure baggage handling inside a luggage full of stuff. The cap size seems to be similar to the normal soda bottle so it might be compatible in case you ever lose the original cap. Another idea is that you can switch the cap with one of those nipple bottle caps found on sports drinks for easy drinking. I might try this soon because the way the water comes out of this deflatable bottle is VERY fast. Since no air has to come back into the bottle to fill the void of the water coming out, the water basically comes out in a gushing overflow if you are not careful. The first time my gf tried it she instantly spilled water all over her face and chest. It was hilarious. I got scolded after that. So there you have it. Hope this review helps!Want Platy Soft Bottle with Closure Cap Discount?
I used two of these recently when my wife and I went on a cruise. They packed very well and were undetected by security on the ship. It saved us tons of money on alcohol and I imagine it would have been quite easy to refill them off the ship and sneak back on if we needed too. The cap is very well made and the plastic on the bag is heavy duty. Good purchase overall if you are looking to take a large volume of liquid somewhere.
AGPtek® Soldier Water Filter Save 63% off
This is an GOOD filter for being as tiny as it is. First let me say that you sould NOT drink water from any suspect water source, ESPECIALLY if you suspect VIRUSES. Filters alone cannot combat viruses. This filter claims to filter down to 1 micron. That will filter MOST of the Biological bacteria, but not all. This filter is only slightly less effective than the Katadyn Hiker, which can filter down to 0.3 microns.According to the CDC, you should also chemically treat your water with commercially available Iodine, Clorine, or Clorine Dioxide tablets, or by using Clorine Bleach (unscented) or Iodine.
SODIS (SOlar DISinfection) is another good method, and can be used without a filter, but is more effective with the filter. SODIS requires CLEAR PET water bottles, CLEAR water, and 6 hours of sunlight. It used the Sun''s UV-A rays to kill bacteria and viruses.
