Best Reusable Water Bottles
Suggestions to Replace Wasteful Plastic Water Bottles with Reusable Eco-friendly and Long-Lasting Alternatives
The Sigg Traveler is probably the best reusable water bottle on the market right now, and has been a stable product for years since the company's opening in 1908. The Traveler, like all Sigg reusable water bottles, is made from a single piece of aluminum and so is very light and durable. The Sigg inner liner will not leech into your water, nor will it change the taste of your water, and the bottle is completely leak-proof. Sigg bottles will last for years and years, but will dent if you aren't careful. The Sigg Traveler water bottle is available in different colors and sizes. The 1L bottle is priced at $24.99 and .6L ottle costs $21.99.
Kleen Kanteen reusable water bottles are made from 100% recyclable high quality stainless steel. It will not leach chemicals or taste into your beverage and weighs only 8oz. It is very durable and can be reused for years. Its slim design makes storage easy and it will fit in most cup and bottle holders. The Kleen Kanteen is dishwasher safe and can hold a variety of liquids from acidic juices to alcoholic beverages. Available storage capacity includes: 12oz, 18oz, 27oz, and 40oz, including a sippy bottle and wine carafe. Prices range from $15-$27 and come in a variety of cool colors.
CamelBak BPA-Free Better Bottle with Bite Valve
CamelBak has recently come out with a new line of BPA-free polycarbonate water reusable water bottles.

The CamelBak bottles come in different sizes (.5L, .75L, 1L) and many different colors. Prices range from $7-$12.
The Sigg Sport Water Bottle is a great addition to the Sigg line of water bottles. Also made from aluminum and leech-proof lining, this bottle fits in most cup holders and bike cages. The design of the top makes drinking effortless for athletes who often cannot stand screw tops. This bottle is priced at $24.99, can be purchased in a variety of colors and styles, and is available in .75L (25oz) water capacity.
After all the buzz about BPA and its harmful affects, Nalgene has come out with a new line of BPA-free reusable water bottles, retaining the popular style of the old classic. The Nalgene Tritan has a large mouth that accommodates large gulps and ice cubes, and a screw top that is attached to loop to prevent loss of the cap. This bottle comes in a variety of bright colors and comes in either 1 pint or .5 pint sizes (price range from $8-$15).

Post a Comment(cnt from below) They are 100% recyclable, dishwasher friendly, eco-friendly and, quite simply, one of the classiest designs on the market today.
All bottles are designed with a large bottleneck opening for 2 reasons:
• to accommodate large ice cubes or smoothies, and
• for easy cleaning to prevent any type of bacteria build-up.
Small-mouth bottleneck designs can't give you either of these.
FOF bottles are indeed an essential ingredient "For Our Future ... For Our Family ... For Our Friends". Please visit us on-line at http://fofbottles.com to learn more or e-mail for more details.

The FOF Bottle Company is proud to offer our FOF bottles as a clean reusable alternative to the single use plastic bottles. FOF (pronounced how it's spelled) is an acronym for "For Our Future ... For Our Family ... For Our Friends."
All FOF bottles are made of high-quality, food grade #304 (18/8) stainless steel. It's that simple; they're completely BPA-free, won't leach any scary chemicals or toxins and don't require any type of special inside lining like some other bottles. All caps (hook, sports or sippy adaptor) are made of food grade polypropylene which also are completely BPA-free and independently FDA certified (not too many companies go to that extreme).
All FOF bottles come in single-wall 550 ml or 750 ml capacity in either a brushed stainless or bright (mirror-like) polished finished or a 500 ml "FOF Junior" capacity (for smaller hands) in either a blue or pink finish. They are 100% recyclable, dishwasher friendly, eco-friendly and, quite simply, one of the classiest desi
I agree that reusable water bottles are a great way to reduce the use of plastic (unless you get a plastic one, but it would still be reusable, which is good). I have one of the Sigg sport bottles, which I think is great. Once I got into the habit of using it, it really is convenient and, in addition to reducing plastic waste, it's a great way to save money. Hopefully this will continue to become more common.
