THANK YOU for taking the time to do this video. Your videos are always so thorough which is so so appreciated. It’s not cheap to try out different bottles, and there’s really only 1 way to find out if the bottle is good or not… Which is why this video is so helpful!

I just ordered a Stanley and you post this video lol. Time to watch and decide if I have to return it. Appreciate the work you do!

[@bottlepro3252]

Gotta love that timing haha. I've never been a huge fan of the popular Stanley tumblers, but that's just my opinion and a ton of people love them. Would be interested to hear what you think. I also am curious to try out their IceFlow version since that looks like it fixes some of the things I'm not crazy about with their main tumbler. Either way though, as long as your bottle gets you drinking more water, it's a good bottle!

[@idle_sheep]

​@@bottlepro3252I ordered a Stanley tumbler because I really wanted something big that's easy to drink out of at home. I think for my needs (having something on my desk I can easily grab and drink from) it's perfect. Doesn't have to be Stanley to be fair but I went for it because there's all kinds of after market accessories and parts for it too, plus they have a lifetime warranty which I like. For on the go (mainly for running/walking) I actually am considering buying the eco vessel thanks to your videos.

[@idle_sheep]

​​@@bottlepro3252The reason I went with the Stanley is because I wanted a bottle to drink around the house since that's where I work, and a tumbler just seemed like the best option since it's the easiest to just pick up and drink. I think it'll fit my needs. Admittedly it could have been a tumbler from another brand but I like that Stanley has a good warranty and is easy to get after market parts and accessories for given its popularity. For on-the-go I'm actually considering the eco vessel because of your videos. I think it'll be perfect for my use case which is walks/runs. This video also reminded me to finally purchase a proper bottle cleaning kit, so thank you for that!

Can you make a video reviewing multiple glass water bottles and determining which is best. I saw in one of the previous videos you ranked glass as the best bottle material

[@bottlepro3252]

Yea, I'm planning to get some glass bottles because I honestly haven't tested many of them yet. That review topic might push into next year based on currently planned videos and $$$, but if the channel keeps growing, that'll help me buy more of those sooner so we'll see!

You missed one, a best in class for me Stanley 20oz Trigger-Action lid. No handle. The trigger action is no leak, easy to clean, with the standard Stanley quality. Also comes in 16 oz.

[@sinigangpapi3379]

Owala is the best! Easiest to clean over any brand. The carrying handle isn't the best but once you're used to it doesn't even feel like you're carrying anything! Also, they have the best color way, best sip/chug in 1 design mechanism. It has a mouth cover so it keeps it away from debris and all it takes is push of a button to open it. It is the most convenient bottle I have ever used but seriously though it only takes but 3 minutes to disassemble, clean all parts and put back together which is the main thing that sold me. I can even put juice, coffee, or sodas as long as I clean it afterwards it's amazing I highly recommend,

[@bottlepro3252]

Agreed with all of your points, except the colors just because I'm a boring-color person haha. Some people love the colors and others don't, which is fine! That's what opinions are for.

[@sinigangpapi3379]

@@bottlepro3252 they have boring color ways too like solid colors Grey, white, dark blue, or all black which is the one I have. they even have designs/color drops which I don't see many brands do.

​@@bottlepro3252they have boring colors too! Solid plain colors such as white, black, gray, and even more plain/boring colors available at Amazon! Saying you don't like their colors is like saying you don't have a favorite color lol would you rather have more colors to pick from or be limited to only 3 or 4 colors?

[@Jose04537]

I recommend yeti for it's sturdiness. Just change the cap for a more practical off brand chug lid, that's what I did.

[@LL-bl8hd]

I bought an Owala and it's OK, but I find I'm not using it that much. The combined straw/chug lid feels like an awkward compromise that doesn't work perfectly for either thing. I mentioned this on another video but I prefer lids that pop open with a button. I'm currently trying a Thermos brand I got at Target. I have an old Thermos made for hot drinks that still works well after about 20 years. I might keep the Owala to use in the car since it does have a straw (even if it's not a very good one).

[@GSX.YYY_]

Top 3: Stanley, Awola, and Yeti. Best Aesthetics: Yeti, Larqu, and Awola. Best bottle overall: FJ Bottle (somehow).

[@patriot7712]

Coleman is very underrated

[@bottlepro3252]

Yea, they're one I really need to catch up on. Several people have mentioned their lid is really good.

[@hopequen8534]

I have 3 water bottles. I have Hydro Flask on the go, Stanley in my room at home, and The Coldest Water on my desk at work.

[@Leifthefox0]

I bought an owala for college and ended up wanting a different bottle later on, the straw in it bother me often ive realized and carrying it was a pain! I think im gonna order an fj bottle instead, thanks for this video!

[@earthyadventurer]

Did you end up getting the fj bottle? If so, did you like it? Considering ordering one

[@TheSebas275]

Also wondering the above question

[@CoreyDowning]

another potential alternative to bottle bright would be espresso machine cleanser/detergent, particularly if you're vessel is regularly used for coffee drinks. should do a better job removing residual coffee oils and stains and is significantly cheaper.

[@real_pewtato]

I've seen that FJ also has a button lid option and I've heard that one has a larger spout and a little hole for air which this model you showcased seems to lack. Have you got any experience with the other FJ model? Im kinda torn between the two.

[@spacedoutcat483]

Thanks for this video! I used to have a Mira (knockoff Swell?) that looked just like the Swell bottle you showed. I liked it a lot but I lost it and want to switch to something with a straw. This list was super helpful!

[@earthyadventurer]

Between the FJ bottle and the Takeya which would you ultimately pick?

[@bottlepro3252]

Probably FJ personally. That seems to be the one I find myself going back to most often when not deliberately testing another bottle. The strap is such a simple add-on that makes the bottle easier to carry different places even when your hands are full, and they made it in a way that it's pretty seamless with the bottle so it doesn't get in the way when you don't need it. Plus it's a little cheaper. The opening could be a touch wider and I'd be happy, but it's not a huge deal.

[@litrick5471]

Great vid. Id love to see some brumates added bc i really like that their lids fully seal unlike other brands like yeti

[@bottlepro3252]

Yea, I have an interesting video I'm about to post about the top 30 bottle listings on Amazon, and BruMates threw me for a loop and almost made me re-do the whole video. It was a good thing for BruMates, but either way...more on that in a day or so...

[@teeskyers]

Probably a redundant question, but would you suggest fj bottle 32 oz over the hydro flask wide mouth 32 oz? Thank you for your help and videos BottlePro!

[@_elbertos_]

You should try the coleman freeflow. Never looked at another thermos since I bought mine. I use it for everything (international flights all year included) and it is built like a tank. I also use zojirushi, their insulated thermos have an insulation that is simply unbelieveable.

[@bottlepro3252]

Yea a lot of people have recommended both of those. Planning to buy them within the next few months.

[@theonlymann1485]

Question from a Insulated Stainless Steel Cup/Bottle collector. seems like there is no listing for fully-stainless steel jugs, as all the caps seem to be plastic in some parts(excluding the copper one) is there no version of insulated water bottles with full metal caps? Been finding an answer to this question, as I have this wierd Murphy's Law where I put the bottle on the table, accidentally hit it, the bottle miraculously lands on the lid, and the lid just cracks open due to the water in it. been trying to find a full-metal lid to solve this issue

[@ankushkaul5092]

Curious if you have tested a bottle with glass or ceramic lining inside a stainless steel bottle?

[@bottlepro3252]

Not yet, but I really want to try out ceramic lined bottles in particular. Planning to buy a few to test later this year.

[@DIYDad1]

Hey great content on your channel! I really like the Healthy Human ones they are priced well and all stainless lid as well, do you have any suggestions for a single walled stainless steel water bottle, similar lid options to the Healthy Human line? Steel lined lid sounds like a great idea so there's minimal plastic. I do really like my Stanley with the straw lid and top carry handle but just want something smaller, like a 20-22 ounce size that fits in the cup holders in my car a little nicer and more slim and lighter weight than a double walled insulated. Thanks for making these videos, it's a very niche topic for sure lol.

[@bottlepro3252]

Klean Kanteen's usually a pretty good option. They can be a little tricky to find on Amazon, but here are two that seem like they might work: Reflect series with bamboo lid www.kleankanteen.com/collections/all/products/plastic-free-water-bottle-27oz Updated singlewall with loop cap www.kleankanteen.com/collections/non-insulated-water-bottles/products/water-bottle-wide-mouth-27-oz FYI, I have their old loop cap for their single-walls, and mine has steel under the lid. I don't have their newer one from this listing. But when I reached out to Klean Kanteen earlier this year, they confirmed their updated loop caps still have steel under them. I wish they showed it better in the pictures, and I'm basing that recommendation off their response. Looks like they're both just under 3" diameter, and that should fit in a bunch of cup holders. It'd be good to measure yours to double-check though since they're all different. Hope this helps!

[@DIYDad1]

[@fruitracoon]

for the copper bottle be careful copper is one of the most common metal allergies and for a tea steep bottle I got Cosumy double glass tea infuser 17oz i really enjoy it and damn does it keep your drink hot for awhile i use it at work during the winter the only annoyance is removing the tea leaves when cleaning they kinda get stuck to the walls

[@DiggingtheJive]

Have you tested Owala SmoothSip Slider Stainless-Steel Tumbler? If so, where would that fit within your rankings?

[@out_of_the_BOX]

I really want a bottle that lets me chug faster and is around the 20$ mark. I ordered a camelbak chute mag since it looks like it has a nice, sizeable spout, but seeing so many people talk about the ripping lid (that plastic hinge is so impractical), I am worried about the longevity so I've been hovering over the cancel button. Ive owned a takeya for a few years (until it got confiscated by tsa when I forgot to empty it, hence why im here). I found that, even though its celebrated for its lid, I never really liked chugging with it. I want a lifetime bottle that chugs well. Since you have both, I know you said the fjbottle has a smaller spout which is the only reason I haven't purchased it yet, but I'd like to know what you think! Also I saw another video which showed the fjbottle had poor water flow as it doesnt have an air hole, and it showed. Does the fj chug well? The chute mag?

[@windrage.]

The chute mag is perfect for chugging. The plastic hinge is a weak spot for sure, but unless you drop the bottle while the cap is open it can last for a long time. My main issue with the cap is actually that it retains odours and even with constant cleaning i could feel some kind of musty smell whenever i'd drink from it, might be just me though.

[@hugoramiro7577]

You should try zojirushi, its the best

[@bottlepro3252]

Have had a lot of people say that! They're on the list to-get.

[@BlissBatch]

Where is Zojirushi‽

[@lithepanther]

I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on the Coleman AutoSeal Freeflow bottles. They make my all time favorite lid, so much so that I've bought a couple just for the lids and given the bottles away since I don't love their aesthetics. I end up just using their lids on all sorts of wide mouth bottles I've ended up buying and trying like Hydro Flask, Iron Flask, Hydro Cell and some other assorted misc brands on Amazon.

[@bottlepro3252]

Nice I'll need to check it out. Someone else recommended them too (and Zojirushi) as a few other good lids I haven't had a chance to try yet. Interesting that the lid fits all those other brands too.

[@lithepanther]

@@bottlepro3252 it's just a standard wide mouth bottle with a wide mouth lid with no proprietary attachment or special size luckily

[@matsudakodo]

Why do you like it? I find having to squeeze a button to drink inconvenient.

[@Kadoom1131]

The only bottle from those that i can find in Romania at a decent price ( 30 $ ) it s that Camelbak chute mag 25 oz sst vacuum insulated and i also found Hydro Flask Trail series 24 oz for 40 $ . Which one would you choose as the best all around ? Saw a lot of people who got rust in their Hydro Flasks . Thanks !

[@bottlepro3252]

Either one would be a good choice, but if you're looking for something for routine everyday use, then Camelbak is always a decent choice for the money. Their plastic hinged spout cap is not my favorite design, but it's still not a bad bottle. And when getting an everyday-use bottle, having a chug or straw lid is always good in my opinion. Easier sipping with fewer spills. But if you hike a lot, then Trail series might be better becase it's so lightweight. Hope this helps!

[@ricaneva3896]

Best way to test them is leave them in the sun outside for q bit then taste the water im looking for a good one for my kids school rhat doesnt smell the good ones the lid is the one that smells most are plastic
