6 Best Reusable Drinking Bottles On Amazon
Whether you decide to spend the day indoors in the comfort of your own home or sweat it out in the wilderness on a camping trip, it is necessary to stay adequately hydrated. We are especially concerned about this because we spend most of our day in the warm Tampa weather and we find ourselves reaching for the water bottle over and over throughout the day. Disposable water bottles were an unhealthy addiction until we started living a sustainable lifestyle and realized what a major waste of plastic that is. We then began looking for reusable drinking bottles to cut back on that plastic waste.
If you are skeptical and don’t want to let go of the convenience, our experience might change your mind. We found that once we switched to reusable bottles, we got used to drinking water more often during the day than before. Earlier we used to reach for sugary drinks from the kitchen once or twice during the day. If you are hydrated, you don’t get that urge. You also don’t feel hungry as often because your stomach is always kinda filled with water. This reduces your risk of diabetes and blood pressure as you cut lots of unnecessary calories. The reusable drinking bottles will even cut down on the use of single-use plastic bottles, the latter of which is projected to reach dangerous levels in a year or so.
Pro tips to keep in mind:
- Almost all the bottles above a certain price threshold will be made with food-grade BPA free plastic. So don’t worry about buying the most expensive bottle based on its materials but don’t skimp on it either.
- If you are buying a bottle for children or for working out, get bottles with leak-proof lids that can take a beating. It will save you from unfortunate accidents.
We have found a tonne of options that suit every style and budget. We have picked our favorites from Amazon and would like to share.
Embrava Best Sports Water Bottle
Let us start out with one that is as stylish as it is functional. It has a sporty aesthetic that makes it perfect for taking to the gym. The material is BPA free Tritan co-polyester which gives the bottle a premium weight and feel. The amazing and sturdy body is topped off with a dustproof and leak-proof lid to keep the water inside when the bottle will inevitably be thrown around during workouts. An interesting addition to the bottle is the inclusion of an ebook which is about $10 value. The book details hydration for athletes. We think that it is a thoughtful way of attracting new customers. Also, the brand offers a 100% refund if you don’t like the product. That is very reassuring confidence that the company has in its products.
Reduce WaterWeek Reusable Water Bottles
This is a very affordable option and is perfect if you have children. It has bright colored designs over a clear transparent body. They are 14-ounce bottles which are a perfect size for small hands and backpacks. When you entrust it to children, you know it is going to be handled roughly. Thankfully it comes with a leak-proof lid that holds on to the contents of the bottle. One of the best things that we love about these is the wide tops that give you a lot of flexibility as to what you can store in them.
Rubbermaid Leak-Proof Chug Water Bottle
If you want something super affordable, yet durable and long-lasting, there is no way you can make a mistake with this one. The bottle itself is made with food-grade Tritan plastic which is stain and odor-free. The lids are leak proof to an acceptable level. It has a loop that allows you to chain it through a strap for easy carry. They come in many different aqua themed colors and a few variations in shape. The bottle is dishwasher safe but only on the top rack. For around $7 apiece we really couldn’t ask for anything more. Take them with you on a trip if you are afraid of losing your regular fancy reusable drinking bottle.
Contigo Jackson Reusable Water Bottle
This is a very simple design but is amazingly useful. The special thing about this bottle is that the top part comes off entirely allowing you a wide mouth to fill it up easily with ice cubes and what have you. It has a push-button top release mechanism that is convenient for one-handed drinking. It comes in many colors and also in packs of 2 and 3 if you are getting some for the whole family.
Glass Water Bottles 6 Pack Deluxe Set 18oz
If you are not going to handle the bottle roughly and are looking for something elegant, these glass water bottles have a great feel to them. They are made from 3mm thick high-quality white glass which is very clear in its look. They come in cozy neoprene sleeves which provide some degree of heat insulation but we wouldn’t count on it for true insulation. The stainless steel lid is a nice contrast to the clear body of the bottle. Overall, a great package for taking to work or class.
Valourgo Bpafree Collapsible Water Bottle
We really like this design. It is made for backpackers and hikers who want to save valuable space. The bottle is made from food-grade silicone. The outside is soft to the touch. The bottle compresses vertically quite easily to reduce in size to fit into a small pouch or a large backpack, depending on the occasion. It has a range of 7.5 ounces to 19 ounces. It is the definition of adaptability. The bottle also has a leak-proof lid and the body is shatterproof. That means it can take rough handling.
Drinking 2 liters of water a day from your own reusable drinking bottle is a great way to purify your body and have a healthy mind. It is a small change that has huge returns. Picking up this habit will surely lead you to wean away from harmful sugary drinks. The health effects are enormous. You just have to be prepared with the right gear.
