I just want a water bottle which....

[MaggieFS]

... has a straw
... has some sort of flip up or lid which means the mouthpiece is covered when not in use
... has a carry handle
... about 750ml
... doesn't cost a fortune
... doesn't leak

There are so many. Why is this so hard? Bonus points if it goes in the dishwasher. And it's for me not DC so no mermaids or dinosaurs. I struggle enough to look presentable at work as it is.

I have one of these - got it in TK Maxx, its a 1L one doesnt have a straw but as said above you can buy them, its my favourite and i have many water bottles.

I came on to recommend Sho too.

My DD has one of these. She’s had it all through preschool and now primary. Never gone mouldy, survived many drops on the floor, I really rate them.

Super sparrow as mentioned up thread. The best water bottle. It's stood the test of time after being dropped numerous times and the paint work hasn't chipped and no dents! I got a slim style one like a milk bottle but can't seem to find that style on Amazon. It came with a straw top and a screw top. Fridge water stays cold all day too.
