Nalgene Tritan Wide Mouth BPA-Free Water Bottle, 1-Quart

We live in the desert of Arizona, and for months we can have high temperatures in the hundreds, and lows in the 90’s. We used to go through a Lot of disposable water bottles from the store – two to three cases a week. We were looking to find a way to keep the convenience of water bottles without throwing away so much plastic, when we purchased the first of our Nalgene bottles. We were looking for a “Made in USA” product that would hold up, and they have performed very well. We now own about thirty of the bottles in different shapes and colors and sizes. We fill them up with our water purifier next to the sink. The water tastes just as good or better than bottled water. These bottles don’t hold “smells” like we’ve encountered with other bottles. The 16oz is the most popular in our household, however we do have a few 32oz sized bottles too, and they are handy for times when more water is going to be needed. We do still keep a couple of store waters around, mostly for people to take on the road when that comes up. If you’re wondering if they will fit in your fridge, the 16oz wide mouth measures 2 5/8″ Diameter by 6 7/8″ Tall. The 32oz measures 3 1/2″ Diameter by 8 3/8″ Tall. I have washed the bottles in the picture over 100 times (saving a lot of plastic in a landfill, I hope) and although they cost more, the bottles have held up extremely well. I’m extremely happy with our decision to go with Nalgene. Yes, you have to wash them and fill them, and keep track of them, and it’s not a perfect system. However, these have lasted months without a single failure, and I believe they will last a few years, replacing us throwing away hundreds of water bottles for each of these. Disclosure: I did not get paid in any manner for this review, and these are my own opinions as a customer and user, and I’m not affiliated with any bottle product or Nalgene in any way other than an Amazon customer.

You can’t go wrong with this. When I was in college, my roommate and I decided to test the structural integrity of a Nalgene. We were, for reasons which I cannot fully reconstruct, irritated at the structural perfection of the thing. Didn’t matter what one did to it, it would not break. We were tired of having our flaws and inadequacies sneered at by this inanimate plastic thing, so perfect at it’s job, so faithful, so unpossessed of anything even approaching a flaw. Nothing, we reasoned, has any business being perfect. So, we chucked my full Nalgene out of a third-floor window. It landed on concrete with a terrific SMACK!, which startled the hell out of this annoying girl who just happened to be standing close by, and bounced about five feet in the air before coming to rest, entirely unscathed. People seemed shocked, but we were not even a bit surprised. This thing is so solid, it’s really kind of incredible. Like Chase Utley, the Godfather, the Hope diamond, Abbey Road, the chicken nugget, I cannot imagine an improvement. It’s just so… perfect. If you’re not totally thrilled with one of these, I don’t know what to tell you. It’s just that good.

This is the best water bottle on the market, and you can use it for both cold and hot beverages! Great for the gym, I have been drinking 1 gallon of water per day and using a carb/fat blocker 

Great water bottle. I use everyday on construction site(gets beat up a lot). BPA free which is what I’m supposed to be using according to my wife(she knows everything), and it’s made in U.S.A

I purchased the 16oz to fit in my cup holder. It will fit any cup holder, due to how small it is. Not sure why I thought it would be bigger, but the pictures are deceptive.

I have three Nalgene bottles and they are by far my favorite water bottle for all purposes. These bottles are the end-all be-all, and are even better when used with a second-party silicone mouth piece. I have gone through at least a dozen water bottles in the hunt for the perfect one, and the Nalgene is by far my favorite because it is the only bottle I’ve found that meets or exceeds all of my criteria listed below.

I bought this water bottle to carry with me on my daily routines and overall have been pleased with it although it does have some setbacks. Positives are it has the big 32 oz capacity and sturdy, unbreakable polycarbonate construction. Also it is BPA free which from recent health concerns is reassuring. Lastly the bottle is very easy to clean.

This nalgene bottle is great. I wanted one that was BPA free. It’s everything that the product description was. Durable, easy to clean, does not absorb odors. I use it every day.
