Mini Insulated Bottle Carrier
This product is actually quite small. Even though is says mini, I still expected it to be a little bit bigger. Also, it will not stand up with a drink bottle in it. The seams on the bottom make it too unstable to stand alone.
This bottle carrier--the one I''m reviewing on this page--simply isn''t as good. It does keep beverages cool and keep them from freezing, but there is only a clip (no carrying string), and it is very difficult to insert a bottle of water then be able to "stand up" the bottle on a table. If you try to stand it up, it falls over easily. I don''t have this problem with the carriers I got in the grocery store because they have a little "ridge" sewn around the bottom of the carrier which stabalizes the bottle when you stand it up.
In fact, this product actually makes it much more difficult to stand the bottle up because there is a seam that runs exactly down the center of the bottom, creating an uneven platform. I even purchased a couple heavy 2" or so washers and inserted them into the bottom, but this didn''t help them stand up much.
So, compared to the two excellent bottle carriers I found in the grocery store a few years ago, this product just doesn''t compare: it''s more expensive, doesn''t have a carry string, and doesn''t stand up on a table easily without falling over.
Water Bottle Carrier Raine
I thought that I will get the purple one like one in the picture, however yellow one was delivered to me. I don''t even want to return it because cost (gas price to the post office +postage) would be the same or more than the product itself. I should''ve expected that it would be inconvenient to have something dangling merely from one point on the waist. It is just inconvenient to have a water bottle dangling from my belt.
West Designs LEGO Drink Bottle 400ml
The contents stay cool. It is a different kind of closure than most water bottles, twist not pull/push and took a little time for my son to get use to, but it is good. The only thing that I am not a fan of is the cover; it does not go on easily and is too difficult for my 4 y/o to line up and click into possition.
Hydros Filtering Water Bottle Save 32% off
I''ve been using my Hydros Bottle for a little over 2 months now, and I don''t know how I survived without it before! I''m a water snob and always hated the taste of my Brita water pitcher, the water treated with my Brita filter always tasted like pesticides and chlorine. I was amazed at the quality of taste from my Hydros Bottle, I fill it from the same water source I would fill my Brita yet the water now tastes like Trader Joes brand spring water, crisp and delicious.I''m not one to read directions, so assembling my bottle (and removing the plastic from the filter) took longer than expected, however once I glanced at the directions it all came together and I assembled the lid in no time. I have not experienced any leaking like i read in other reviews EXCEPT when you turn the bottle completely upside down and shake it, I then have a couple of dribbles come out.
The other thing that I admire greatly about the Hydros bottle is their Operations Hydros program, where part of their proceeds are going to clean water projects. I think this is beyond valuable since over 90 percent of illness in third world countries is from contaminated water.
Also, it is easy to clean (dishwasher safe) and I look especially sporty/ eco friendly at the gym. I appreciate how durable the plastic is and that it is BPA free, so unlike other plastic bottles, it does not leech synthetic estrogen (scary stuff) into my water.
Once you go Hydros, you don''t go back to full price ''designer'' water.
The Hydros Bottle produced nice and crisp tasting water. I was pleasantly surprised by how fast the filter worked. The bottle was easy to use and now I take it with me pretty much everywhere. It is durable and BPA free so sun exposure was no longer a concern. A HUGE money saver product! I went to Disneyland with the bottle and did not spend a dime on drinks that day! I am also going to take it with me to Asia this fall and use it to save money (the trip is way over my budget.) This bottle has come in handy in the short amount of time I have been using it. I really think we all should stop wasting our money on expensive bottled water and do some good for the environment. It has been really easy to stick to that commitment since using the bottle.

I was hoping this would be a great way to have water while traveling fill it up once through airport security and voila, fresh water! But, it leaks way too much to be of any use (I would never put it in my carry on bag with water in it). Even just keeping it on my desk at work isn''t an option because it leaks when you drink out of it. Agree with other reviewers that say it has way too many moving parts.Read Best Reviews of Hydros Filtering Water Bottle Here
I bought this in hopes that it would be an upgrade from my Brita bottle. This bottle actually seems to be a good example of poor design, though, where form was given more attention than function. They''re beautiful to the eye, but they don''t work as well as they should (especially for the price; I bought 2, for about $50). The lid is much too stubborn and complicated (it can be hard to open/close, especially without opening the refill slot at the same time), it leaks like a kid on the pamper whenever it''s not upright, and it''s even a hassle to fill (you have to wait until the water passes through the filter, unless you want to spill water everywhere). It also takes a while for the black carbon dust residue to be cleaned away permanently. The water tastes good, and comes out in a steady stream, but considering all of the negatives and the fact that filter only lasts about a month (if you drink 4 bottles a day), I wouldn''t recommend buying this product. Drinking water shouldn''t be a hassle.Want Hydros Filtering Water Bottle Discount?
People who know me know that I am very particular with my water bottles (I''ve had so many different water bottles that I couldn''t count them all). I have been looking for a bottle with a filter (because I like the idea of removing excess chlorine and such) however I rather dislike sports caps and those water bottles with straws. That''s when I happened across this bottle. The drinking "spout" is sort of like the type you''d have on a travel coffee mug. The drinking spout looks small, however quite a bit of water comes out of it. The side filling spout is great for water fountains as it''s easier to fill the bottle.I am very happy with this bottle. However there are a couple of things to note. For one, at first the bottle started leaking a tad when I would drink. I contacted Hydros support (they were very nice and helped me out) and they told me that you have to tighten the cap pretty tight. Once I did that, then I haven''t experienced anymore leaking (I can turn the bottle fully upside down and shake it and no water comes out).
Also, the system for the various parts of the cap is a bit confusing at first (that''s the reason I knocked a star off the review). Once I looked at the paper with the bottle that explained it, then it made more sense to me (Hydros also has some videos on their website and YouTube showing how to use the bottle). I wish they kept the system simpler, however once you get used to it then you never think about it.
Last thing to note is make sure you soak the filter (as the instructions say to do before using). And don''t worry, the water will turn dark blue/black for that initial soak, but after that it''s fine.
It''s also great that a part of the proceeds go toward their Operation Hydros project to set up clean water systems and infrastructure in underdeveloped countries. So because of that I was able to justify spending a bit more on this water bottle.
Overall I''m very happy with this bottle. Just make sure you close the cap tightly and you''ll be good.

Camelbak Fresh Reservoir Filter Save 10% off
I bought my CamelBak for my love of the outdoors, and more importantly my love for outdoor Music Festivals. The water at the filling stations was pumped through a warm hose so the water was both warm and tasting of icky rubber. This filter pretty much kills that ick flavor. Now, I fill my pack with ice and get tap water from a filling station. This is a must for anybody who intends to fill their pack from a faucet or hose.
Maybe it''s just me but I would like it if there were a cap and plug supplied to cover the filter ends if you take it off the reservoir for an extended period of time for some reason.
The packaging isn''t clear but the replacement Fresh filter is the same as the replacement Groove filter. Camelbak confirmed this. I has seen a couple of web sites that said that but wasn''t 100% sure the info was accurate.

This filter is awesome! It is a little pricey, but after deciding to try it I think it was a great purchase. My camelbak water is much more enjoyable.Read Best Reviews of Camelbak Fresh Reservoir Filter Here
This produce gives a fresh taste to all water. Sometimes filtered water tastes, well, filtered. This product removes any after taste and gives the water a smooth fresh taste. I highly recommend it!Want Camelbak Fresh Reservoir Filter Discount?
The premise is great, however, the filter is subpar. I filled it twice from the tap and it clogged and would obstructed the flow of water from the antidote bladder. Maybe it''s a fluke. I purchased two new replacement filters so we will see... If it doesn''t happen again then I would say it is worthy of 5 stars.Save 10% off
Drinking Bottle/Daisies Mix
I have several crocodile creek drinking metal bottles for my school age child. They are as durable as a Sigg bottle, less expensive, and often even cuter. I actually think the decor on the outside lasts longer than most of the sigg bottles we have.I think the spigots release a little too much air for my liking, but my daughter does not complain. Great for water or apple juice, I have even frozen half full and filled up for nature walks.
Great for little kids.
Igloo 5 Gallon Seat Top Beverage Jug with spigot Save 26% off
This cooler works great. We buy a 1 lb bag of ice and add 3-4 gallons of water. This will usually last thru whatever outdoor function we are at (picnics, soccer games, beach). I''d probably fill this dispenser at your destination unless you have a really secure way of keeping the container from going sidewise in your car and spilling.We added the igloo beverage dispenser, but unless you are with a lot of other folks I probably wouldn''t bother and just bring some plastic cups for your family members.
The lid is white and can get dirty easily, but it cleans up well with a soap and water. The container originally has a slightly funky new plastic smell, but scrubbing it with soap and water and letting it air dry out overnight seemed to fix it.
If you add gatorade be prepared for the inside white liner to get stained over time.
The 5 gallon size is much easier to manage than the much larger full size dispenser. This 5 gallon dispenser is easy to handle with one person (even when full), and you even works well for dumping water on the coach at the end of a big game.
