Camelbak. They're fab.

I’ve got an ion one from TX Maxx. Goes to work, hiking and gym with me. Opens with a push button, and has a clip to stop it accidentally opening. Had it about a year, and it’s fab.

It’s this one - Ion8 Leak-proof Cycling Water Bottle / Water Bottle, BPA-Free, Blue (Frosty Blue), 750ml / 24oz www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01L76TD7G/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_cWRnCbKZGJN7N?tag=mumsnetforum-21

S'well bottles are totally leak proof. I love the ones we have - also keeps liquid cold for 24 hours or hot for 12

I second S'well bottles! They are fabulous! Not to mention they come in amazing colours and designs! Smile

I second SHO bottles - they're great, have a lifetime guarantee and are definitely leak proof (mine have to go sideways in my handbag and haven't let me down yet).

S’well

Simple Modern! Love the brand. I have a travel cup and a water bottle and they're great. Stay hot or cold for 24+ hours, the bottle doesn't leak and they're easy to clean.

S'well are a bit pricey I think. I might try the simple modern as there seem to be good reviews on Amazon. Thank you!

After a long search I've settled with Sistema and have used them for 10+ years for my children.

I’ve used many bottles outdoors over the years and the only ones I use now are Nalgene. Leakproof and bombproof. I had a Contigo one for the gym and the button/spring fell out and that was that.
Camelbak Chute are OK but I don’t like the Eddy due to the straw and rubber spout attracting mould.
My kids had Sigg bottles but the pop up spouts failed in the end. I won’t use anything but Nalgene now

Thethingswedoforlove · 10/01/2019 07:51

Isn’t it about whether it goes in the dishwasher or not? If something goes in the dishwasher it will eventually leak in my opinion.

edenhills · 10/01/2019 08:21

Sistema

Contiguous
